About this episode

Colin celebrates the Nuggets winning the NBA championship by praising Finals MVP Nikola Jokic and why we haven't seen anything like him in league history. He pushes back against a recent narrative about "super teams" in the NBA and if they are the best route to winning a title in today's league. He also shares what the Heat need to do in order to get over the hump and win it all after making the Finals for the second time in 4 years. Plus, Nick Wright from First Things First joins the show to admit he was wrong about Nikola Jokic not being considered one of the all time greats.
