Beckley dubbed this show the “Playoffpocalypse” and I feel like that’s an apt name. Don’t watch this if you hate awesome guests because we had a bunch of them, paired up to discuss three of the matchups going on right now:

To discuss Thunder/Mavs: Royce Young of Daily Thunder and Jeff “Skin” Wade of 103.3 ESPN Dallas Radio and the Mavs’ TV broadcasts

Huge thanks to all of them. Here’s the show in a handy YouTube playlist: :00 – :10 – Intro + Jazz/Spurs [This includes a reaction to this important piece.]

:30 – :37 – Audience Questions [On the way bloggers/reporters see the game and on Westbrook's D on Terry]

:37 – 1:00 – Persons Of Interest: Skin Wade and Royce Young [Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 - Mavs/Thunder]
