Verno and Jacoby go through a string of bad luck for the Grizzlies, who’ve lost their past three games at home in the final seconds and are now without Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr (01:11). They then discuss Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who dropped 51 points against the Rockets; the reports coming out of Phoenix that the Suns could potentially move on from Kevin Durant in the summer; and the drama between Devin Booker and Mike Budenholzer (12:19). Next, they discuss the impact of Kyrie Irving' ACL tear and the Sixers' decision to finally shut down Joel Embiid (30:09). The guys then ask each other for some advice on some of the hottest topics around the league (40:15).
