About the episode

Justin, Rob, and Wos react to all the craziness that happened during Wednesday night's games, starting with Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat coming back again against the Milwaukee Bucks to close out the series in five games. They discuss another Jimmy Butler legacy game, the future of Mike Budenholzer, and more. Then they move on to the Warriors winning their biggest road game of the year to take a 3-2 series lead. They discuss the big games some of the role players for the Warriors had, Draymond's role off the bench, and the impact of De'Aaron Fox's injury (34:36). After that, they discuss the Knicks closing out the Cavs in five games by talking about how impressive the Knicks were, how disappointing the Cavs were, where the Cavs go from here, and a brief look ahead to the Knicks' match up with the Heat in the second round (41:20). They wrap up with the Grizzlies dominating the second half and making the series 3-2 (1:01:15).
