Will, Alex, and Jerome recap the opening weekend of the NBA Playoffs (1:00), diving into Pascal Siakam’s role in Indiana, Kyle Kuzma’s unforgettable box score, and early impressions of Kawhi Leonard and Russell Westbrook. They break down Detroit’s fourth quarter no-show at Madison Square Garden, the Lakers’ growing concerns, Orlando’s offensive struggles, Cleveland’s G1 Big Three, and Golden State’s blueprint against the Rockets.

Later, they take fan questions including trade proposals for Jonathan Kuminga (1:21:30), crack open a six-pack of WrestleMania takeaways (1:30:37) before debating whether the Raptors should target stars like Trae Young, Zion Williamson, or Devin Booker this off-season (1:48:00).
