NBA: Spoken Truth Podcast previews Western Conference Finals

On the latest live edition of the Spoken Truth Podcast, we covered Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals as the Golden State Warriors hosted the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday night. Even though Golden State jumped out to a double digit lead in the first quarter and pulled away for a 123-90 win, there was plenty of action to discuss around the NBA. We talked about key players for each team remaining in the conference finals, how the Warriors should defend Luka Dončić, the Phoenix Suns meltdown at home in Game 7 last weekend, whether DeAndre Ayton and Chris Paul will return next season, the NBA Draft lottery and more!

Danny Murphy, Charles Post and Tunde Aduroja also reviewed Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals as the Miami Heat beat the Boston Celtics 118-107. Jimmy Butler led the way with elite play on both ends of the floor. The game completely shifted after halftime when the Heat opened on a 22-2 run including forcing several turnovers in a row and converting in transition. Butler had three steals in a four-possession span during the dominant run and finished with a game-high 41 points, nine rebounds and five assists. Jayson Tatum was great early but struggled with six turnovers in the third quarter alone and ended up with 29 points and eight rebounds on 2/9 from 3-point range in the loss. Game 2 tips off Thursday.
