What does one do when the regular co-hosts are away? Well, same thing any other NBA does, you use your draft picks and trade for a star. On this episode, Rod is joined by local hoops legend and friend of the show, Clay Crellin from HD Training, and by Dropping Dimes’ pick from the 2019 draft, Dylan!
The guys discuss the implications of the draft lottery and what should the top 4 teams in the draft do with their picks.
Later on the show, then guys take a look at the Conference Finals, is it all over for the Blazers and the Raptors? Are the Warriors better without KD? Why is Giannis so damn likeable, and more!
