In a thrilling clash of No. 1 vs. No. 2 seeds in both conferences, the Cleveland Cavaliers pulled off a stunning comeback against the Boston Celtics, led by a masterful 20-point fourth-quarter performance from Donovan Mitchell. Is Mitchell finally entering the MVP conversation, or is he still a step away from superstar status? Our hosts break it all down with insight from Locked On Cavs.
Meanwhile, in the West, the Houston Rockets made a statement with a clutch win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. After being outclassed earlier in the season, the Rockets flipped the script, showcasing their defensive tenacity and young core. But are they ready to take the next step, or is there still work to be done? Locked On Rockets provides a closer look.
Coaching is another hot topic, with both Cleveland and Houston’s turnarounds credited to savvy adjustments. But who deserves more praise: Kenny Atkinson’s management in Cleveland or Ime Udoka’s leadership in Houston? We discuss what makes these coaches shine and how their systems elevate their teams?
The episode also dives into early trade rumors. The Chicago Bulls seem poised for a shake-up, with veterans and even young talent rumored to be on the block. Which teams should be paying attention to the Bulls’ potential moves? Haize weighs in on possible suitors and the long-term implications for the team.
Finally, it wouldn’t be Locked On NBA without a bit of fun. From Giannis Antetokounmpo’s incredible triple-double to Fred VanVleet’s clutch weekend, our “Who Went Harder?” segment crowns the weekend’s most impressive players. Plus, we explore the quirks and chaos of the NBA with a look at Steve Kerr’s questionable rotations and the Washington Wizards’ record-setting losing streak.
Stay tuned for a jam-packed episode featuring local experts and national voices breaking down everything you need to know about the league.
