Show notes

Straight Fire w/ Jason McIntyre - Embiid is Not a '1', Jayson Tatum vs Larry Bird & Ja Morant Doesn't Get It May 15, 2023

Show notes

On today's episode, Jason and Super Producer Rob G (Robert Guerra) get things started by taking a verbal blowtorch to Doc Rivers, James Harden and Joel Embiid following the Philadelphia 76ers' gutless performance in their season-ending loss to the Boston Celtics. Rivers' and Harden's playoff shortcomings are well-chronicled so that wasn't shocking, but given the way Embiid performed, the guys agree it's time to admit that the reigning MVP is capable of being a '1' on a championship team. On the flip side, Jayson Tatum dropping 51 in the series-clinching win showed once again that he can absolutely be a '1'. In fact, J-mac argues that Tatum is already a better offensive player than Celtics legend Larry Bird. Sticking in the NBA, Memphis Grizzlies was suspended (again) for flashing a handgun on social media (again) over the weekend. It's clear at this point that Morant just doesn't get it; What isn't clear, however, is what exactly Ja wants out of life. Does he want to be the Face of the NBA, or does he want to be a gangster? Only time will tell on that one. Finally, Jason and Rob close the show by breaking down a few NBA conspiracy theories involving the Phoenix Suns. Is Tyronn Lue next in line to replace Monty Williams? If so, could Russell Westbrook be coming along with him? And, how does Isiah Thomas factor into all of this? The Suns offseason should be spicy!
