LeBron James is 41 years old and dropping playoff performances that are making the entire league uncomfortable. Without Luka Doncic and Austin Reeves, the Lakers have gone up 2-0 on the Rockets - and it's not even been close. Mo and Coach Brendan Suhr break down what JJ Redick has built and why Houston's identity has completely fallen apart.
Plus: Victor Wembanyama is out with a concussion and De'Aaron Fox is now under the microscope without his superstar to hide behind. The Timberwolves came back from 19 down to beat the Nuggets in a playoff war. Jaden McDaniels called out every single Nugget by name. Billy Donovan has resigned from the Bulls. And the Portland Trail Blazers owner is rapidly becoming the most embarrassing figure in the league.
It's round one, it's already wild, and Mo and Brendan are not holding back.
