Shownotes

Gina and Big Perk open with the Clippers’ dropping Game 1 to the Jazz and discuss if LA has what it takes to bounce back. Gina thinks the Clippers can claw back without Paul George playing at a superstar caliber, while Big Perk thinks this could be Utah’s year.

Then, Big Perk expresses disappointment in his pick for the Bucks to come out of the East and holds Giannis accountable for Milwaukee’s 0-2 start to Brooklyn. Then, Gina and Big Perk give their picks for Game 3, and they are on opposite sides of the line with Big Perk’s deadbolt lock.


We look to tonight’s Game 2 between the Nuggets and Suns and discuss if newly-crowned MVP Nikola Jokic can lead Denver to tie the series.


Big Perk and Gina make their future picks for Finals MVP and discuss if Kevin Durant is a shoe-in for the award with the Nets rolling.


Finally, we make Bet to the Future picks on where Dame could be headed if Portland trades him this offseason.
