Subscribe to The Kevin O’Connor Show
Kevin O’Connor is joined by Mo Dakhil to give his thoughts and takeaways from Monday night’s NBA action. The duo begins with the Los Angeles Clippers defeating the Golden State Warriors, as they discuss the Clippers’ playoff aspirations and how much the Warriors should still scare teams in the Western Conference. Next is the dramatic victory of the Atlanta Hawks over the Sacramento Kings, as the duo disc De’Aaron Fox and Zachary Risacher, among others. In other news, Franz Wagner appears to be coming into his own just as Kevin predicted, and the Cleveland Cavaliers look to keep their undefeated streak alive against the Boston Celtics. Kevin and Mo also touch on the NBA Cup and a rumored change to the All-Star Game structure.
Next, Spike Eskin joins the show to take a deep dive on the utterly depressing Philadelphia 76ers, who blew a 19-point lead to fall to 2-11 tonight. Spike goes off on the apparent lack of effort on the court and why Joel Embiid’s return has been such a disaster so far. Kevin isn’t ready to give up on the Sixers just yet because of some star talent still performing at a high level and a weak conference, but they’re still off to a nightmare start. Kevin & Spike close out the show with their thoughts on Linkin Park’s latest album.
