Justin, Rob, and Wos recap Wednesday night’s slate of Game 2s, starting with the Nuggets’ defeat of the Timberwolves (02:36). They discuss Jamal Murray’s return to playoff mode and the Wolves’ third-quarter surge. Then they discuss the Grizzlies’ victory over the Lakers and the subpar performances from Anthony Davis and D’Angelo Russell (16:51). After, they discuss the Bucks’ convincing win over the Heat without Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Wizards parting ways with GM Tommy Sheppard (36:02). The guys end the pod by opening up the suggestion box (52:48).
