Episode 51: “That was whistle-tip era Oakland, and Stephen Jackson is the NBA’s Bubb Rubb”

•

Joey and Sean welcome Ezekiel Kweku (MTV News, VICE Sports, @theshrillest on Twitter) for a super-sized preview of the NBA Finals. We talk about the PTSD of Oakland fans, zero-confidence playoff merchandise, Matt Barnes boxing Dahntay Jones, Chris Paul in San Antonio, Jerry West in Clipperland, Lonzo Ball in Boston, Phil Jackson's email filters, and the randomness of the NBA finals/the universe. We make our Finals picks, match up this year's Warriors with last year's Warriors, and we explore why ladies love Andre Iguodala. Sponsored by Anderson Varejao's improv studio, Yes-Anderson's.
