(NOTE: SHOW WAS RECORDED BEFORE THE NEWS OF TAYLOR JENKINS'S FIRING)

Verno and Kirk Goldsberry (who’s in for Jacoby) break down Josh Giddey’s half-court game-winning shot against the Lakers and why this will be the turning point for Giddey and the Bulls (02:59). They also discuss the struggling Grizzlies after another loss to the Thunder and why the Clippers and Warriors have a chance to steal a top seed (12:35). Next, Verno prepares eight questions for Kirk (30:21). They discuss everything from the most underrated teams, top seeds who are in danger of a first-round exit, players who have grown on Kirk the most, and so much more.
