Adam Spinella joins Sam Vecenie to break down the early games on the NBA Playoff slate today. First, they dive deep into Knicks-Cavs, breaking down some tape on how Jalen Brunson is dominating the Cavs' defensive plans to overhelp in the paint, and how the Cavs are not doing a good enough job in terms of offensive gameplanning to get their players the ball in the best positions to succeed, as seen by the dominant run they had in the third quarter.

Then, we'll dive into Warriors-Kings and how the Warriors tied the series 2-2. Then, we'll chat some NBA Draft. Then, we break down five players that we think have the highest upside in the 2023 NBA Draft OUTSIDE of the consensus top-four upside players (Victor Wembanyama, Scoot Henderson, Brandon Miller, Amen Thompson).
