Logan and Raja start the pod with former NBA player Jontay Porter getting banned for betting on games that he played in, and discuss why the league had to ban him (03:28). They then begin their playoff preview with the no. 7 Sixers facing the no. 2 Knicks. Is Joel Embiid healthy enough for the Sixers to upset the Knicks (16:09)? Can the no. 7 Lakers upset the no. 2 Denver Nuggets, even though they haven’t beaten them in their last eight contests (35:25)? Can the Clippers take care of the red-hot Mavericks, who’ve been on a roll since the All-Star break (45:38)?
