About this episode
LeBron James' MVP Season Sparks A Gil's Arena Meltdown as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew react to LeBron James' vintage season where the King is carrying Luka Doncic and the Los Angeles Lakers to the 2nd seed in the NBA's Western Conference and putting up numbers similar to his greatest season ever. They also react to his comments on the NBA media putting down it's superstars and face of the NBA and debate if LeBron is spitting or tripping on the role the media has in diminishing the product of the NBA. Next, The Gil's Arena Crew reacts to the most shocking comeback of the weekend where Donovan Mitchell & The Cleveland Cavaliers overcame a 22 point deficit to take down the Boston Celtics and debate if this gutsy performance over a top team was enough to prove the Cavs legitimacy in the race for the NBA Playoffs before celebrating Jayson Tatum's birthday and discussing what the Celtics' superstar needs to do to shed the mountains of criticism facing his game despite being one of the NBA's brightest stars. Then, Gil breaks down Steph Curry's season high 56 points, sparking a debate on the Golden State Warriors ceiling if Steph and Jimmy Butler can keep up their winning ways since the NBA Trade Deadline. Finally, The GA Crew reacts to Joel Embiid getting officially shutdown for the season and potentially his career by the Philadelphia 76ers and Gilbert Arenas gets real on his viral appearance on First Take where Stephen A Smith finally admitted to ducking his spot inside Gil's Arena.
