Straight Fire w/ Jason McIntyre - Selling Stock on the Brooklyn Nets, T'Wolves Topple the Clippers & NBA Play-In Best Bets Apr 13, 2022

Show notes

On today’s episode, Jason and Producer Rob G get the party started with a deep dive into the Brooklyn Nets’ play-in tournament victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Earlier in the week, Jason listed the Nets as one of only 5 teams he thinks can win the NBA championship this season… and he’s already on the verge of backing off that claim. Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving were fantastic, and the Nets still needed to hold on for dear life to beat an inferior opponent. Brooklyn won’t be able to get away with that kind of play against better teams. Both Jason and Rob G have already said they’ve got the Jayson Tatum-led Boston Celtics winning Game 1 of the series, and at least one of the guys has gone on record in picking Boston to win the series outright. Later, Jason and Rob G share their thoughts on the Minnesota Timberwolves' thrilling come-from-behind victory over the Los Angeles Clippers. With Karl-Anthony Towns struggling, the T'Wolves leaned on young stud Anthony Edwards and #FormerLaker D'Angelo Russell to carry the load. Now while Minnesota versus Memphis in round 1 is unlikely to draw huge television ratings, with guys like Patrick Beverley and Ja Morant going at it, it certainly has the potential to be the most entertaining series of them all. Finally, Jason closes the show with a very special NBA Play-In Tournament (Charlotte Hornets vs. Atlanta Hawks / New Orleans Pelicans vs. San Antonio Spurs) edition of the Best Bet.
