About this episode
The playoffs are here, and it’s time to talk X-factors — not the obvious superstars, but the role players and under-the-radar hoopers who NEED to rise up if their squads want to survive. We also dive into the Ja Morant situation — was the punishment fair or too soft? Should things like the finger gun celebration even be penalized in today’s NBA? And of course… the MVP race is heating up. 🏆 Shai vs. Jokic — who’s your MVP this year? Join the discussion, drop your hot takes, and let us know who YOU think is under the most pressure this postseason. 👉 Don’t forget to tune in to our live streams on Twitch, TikTok, and YouTube every other Tuesday at 7 PM CST / 8 PM EST! #NBAPlayoffs #MVPDebate #JaMorant #TSC #BasketballTalk #NBA2025 -To be apart of the convos join our discord server and submit questions you would want us to answer to: https://discord.gg/BzwjhZ3q (https://discord.gg/BzwjhZ3q) -Get some merch and support the boys: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP88oajwQ/ (https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP88oajwQ/) Like, subscribe, and turn on notifications!
