Our guest this week is one of the greatest NBA analysts in the game today, Tim Legler (ESPN). We're splitting this interview up because it's nearly two hours long and we felt this portion of the conversation is so timely w/ the majority of it being on The NBA Playoffs. Part two is dropping Saturday which includes some awesome Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant stories.

Topics in this one include: The Boston Celtics vs. Milwaukee Bucks Playoff series and whether Jayson Tatum and The Boston Celtics defense is enough to stop Giannis Antetokounmpo, whether Jimmy Butler and The Miami Heat have enough to beat The Bucks or The Celtics, why Legler likes The Golden State Warriors to come out of the Western Conference, The Warriors series against Ja Morant and The Memphis Grizzlies, whether Ja could actually be the best player on a title team, comparisons between Ja Morant and Dwyane Wade, the beautiful basketball of The Phoenix Suns, whether Devin Booker is talking trash too early in the playoffs and whether or not Luka can learn to trust great players other than himself.
