Verno and Jacoby get together after the Grizzlies lose both Ja Morant and a 29-point lead to the Thunder, who are in prime position to get the sweep over the weekend (01:35). Verno shares his experience being inside the arena after Ja went out and discusses whether Lu Dort deserves any blame for the injury. Next, the guys go over the Clippers' dominance over the Nuggets and why they should really be up 3-0 in the series (20:31).

Lastly, they debate whether the Wolves-Lakers series will go the full seven games, their confidence in the Rockets now that Jimmy Butler is hurt, and the hope for the Bucks to flip that switch and make their series against the Pacers more exciting (47:29).
