Next, we discuss the latest epic battle between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Denver Nuggets. Is there anything tactically worth learning from this game? simply A great game? The question has to be asked: Has Shai Gilgeous-Alexander officially knocked on the MVP door with his performance?
From there, the players examined several shaky teams in the Eastern Conference: the top-seeded Detroit Pistons (four straight losses) and the injury-plagued Philadelphia 76ers (1-4 in March). Are they just going through some turmoil, or do they actually have flaws worth acknowledging?
Finally, Steve talks about his latest rookie rankings and they both share what their Rookie of the Year and All-Rookie teams look like today.
