0:00 ... Show open ... Ross introduces Bruce and dedicates show #247 to "friend of the show" Scott Williams, who wore #47 for two different NBA teams during his long career.

1:10 ... The Knicks swept the 76ers in their second round series. They polished off the Sixers so quickly that they may have TOO MUCH time off before their next series which could dampen their momentum. The extended time off will help OG Anunoby who is recovering from an injury.

3:07 ... Knicks coach Mike Brown will need to conduct practices in such a way that he provides activities that help keep the team's momentum alive.

4:40 ... Brown did a great job all season using more players than former coach Tom Thibodeau which has kept his guys fresh and provided quality depth for the postseason.

8:11 ... Karl Anthony Towns has been a great performer for NY during the playoffs with his rebounding, decision making, and passing.

10:36 ... Complementary guys like Mikal Bridges and Josh Hart have been instrumental in the team's playoff run. hart is Mike brown's "Swiss Army Knife."

12:20 ... The Pistons and Cavs are tied at 2-2 in the other eastern conference second round series. Donovan Mitchell has gone "nuclear" in games 3 and 4 and he's gotten some good help from James Harden.

14:30 ... Jalen Duren has been relatively ineffective in the series against the Cavs and he needs to be more aggressive against the Cavs' bigs. Detroit also needs a big performance from Cade Cunningham in game 5 or the Cavs might be ready to finish off the Pistons in Cleveland.

18:42 ... Donovan Mitchell's 43 point explosion in game 4 places him #2 on the Cavs all time list of 40+ point playoff scorers, trailing only LeBron James.

19:19 ... The Oklahoma City Thunder finished off the Lakers in four games ... OKC won all 8 games they played against the lakers this season: 4-0 in the regular season and 4-0 in the playoffs.

20:38 .... Has LeBron James played the final game of his career? Probably not because he will want a farewell tour so fans and franchises can honor him one last time. So when he decides to retire, he'll make it known before the final season so all of that can take place.

22:42 ... Has LeBron played his final game AS A LAKER? Once again, the answer is probably "No." We feel he will retire as a Laker and eventually get a statue in LA.

26:17 ... OKC is humming on all cylinders right now. They are winning every game by large margins and their depth is beyond impressive.

28:02 ... Is the OKC layoff a danger to their momentum as we feel it is with the Knicks?

29:11 .... The Spurs/Timberwolves series got pretty chippy over the weekend and the guys discuss whether Victor Wembanyama should have been suspended for game 5 after his "flagrant 2" elbow against Naz Reid in game 4.

32:04 ... Julius Randle has not had a good series against the Spurs. Wemby's presence in the paint makes Randle's life difficult.

33:49 ... The Spurs are just scratching the surface of the team they will become.

36:17 ... Dylan Harper is a rookie who doesn't play like a rookie. He has a bit of Josh Hart in his makeup.

39:11 ... The NBA lost two members of the hoop family on Monday when Jason Collins died at the age of 47 and Brandon Clarke at age 29. Both Ross and Bruce have had long associations with the NBA and both feel that the NBA culture fosters a feeling of family even if we aren't personal friends with everyone.
