Run It Back: Tuesday, May 2nd, 2023

On today’s episode, the crew discusses the Philadelphia 76ers' upset win over the Boston Celtics, how impressive James Harden’s 45-point performance was, whether the Sixers should rest Joel Embiid for Game 2, and their level of concern for the Celtics after the loss (0:33).

Then, they talk about the Denver Nuggets taking a 2-0 series lead against the Phoenix Suns, if it’s too early to count out the Suns, and injury updates on Chris Paul and Jimmy Butler as their statuses for each of their Game 2s are up in the air (14:05).

Next, they dive into whether the Los Angeles Clippers should bring back Russell Westbrook next season, Dillon Brooks having no regrets about trolling LeBron James, and if Kyrie Irving will have a reunion with LeBron on the Los Angeles Lakers next season (25:25).

After that, Chandler Parsons joins to react to James Harden’s Game 1 performance, who needs to step up for the New York Knicks with Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle banged up, and who’s under more pressure between LeBron James and Stephen Curry in their second-round series (39:00).
