As the NBA Conference Finals are approaching in the middle games of the series, the Atlanta Hawks look to tie up the series at 2-2; however, they miss their superstar player Tre Young. Jonny, Elliott, and Ben will talk about whether the Milwaukee Bucks can take advantage of that and take complete control of the series. In the western conference, the Las Angeles Clippers stayed alive in game 5 in Phoenix Suns with a big performance by Paul George. Today we will talk about how Paul George can redeem himself in the playoffs and has the chance to bring the Clippers back from a 3-1 deficit in the series. The Stanley Cup has now begun as the red-hot Montreal Canadians upset the superteam Tampa Bay Lightning in the NHL playoffs. We will discuss whether the Canadians are outmatched against the Bolts and even have a chance in the series as they lost 4-1 in game 1. Jonny will announce his new favorite NHL hockey in today's episode, which will surprise you when you listen.

In NCAA news, one week after the Supreme Court granted NCAA players to be paid, the NC State baseball team has been kicked out of the tournament due to eight players testing positive for COVID19. It has led to many contreversies as the entire baseball team had been vaccinated. We will determine how unfair the NCAA has been.

After postponing the Olympics to 2021, many people look forward to the upcoming games at the end of July. We will talk about the US basketball team and analyze the roster, in which we will determine how good the team is. Can any other teams beat the US?

Jonny, Elliott, and Ben will talk more about the NBA playoffs in today's episode as the Milwaukee Bucks upset the injured Brooklyn Nets in game 7. Kevin Durant could not carry the Nets by himself as we will explore more into how Giannis and the Bucks were able to beat the Nets. In the other Eastern Conference series, Tre Young was able to go into hostile Philly and beat the Sixers. Sixers point guard Ben Simmons is to be blamed as he was scared to shoot in the most significant moments. We will go further into Simmons's mental game and explore why he has not been confident on the court. Tre Young, who had a down game in game 7, the Hawks were still able to pull it out, and that brings the question, did Ben Simmons play his last game as a Sixer. We will explore why Ben Simmons is scared to shoot and talk about what's wrong with Simmons. In the Western Conference, we will debate whether Devin Booker is the next Kobe Bryant and speak if the red hot Phoenix Suns can take it all the way. It has looked like Paul George has ended his playoff curse in another series, and we will talk about if the Clippers have a chance against the Suns. 

After Ben talked about using spider tack in the MLB, we will go further into it as the MLB is now checking every pitcher for spider tack and making sure no one is using it. Are pitchers going to perform worse now? That's the question we have been all asking, and we will see in the next few months whether we will be hits now because of the crackdown with spider tack. In other news, the summer of 2021 is already here, and Jonny will ask Elliott and Ben were the most extensive free agents in sports from the NFL, NBA, and MLB in the next couple of months. Ben's Breakdown will dive into the win for NCAA athletes and explain why it was. So many NCAA athletes have been treated unfairly in past years, and the NCAA has now been corrupt for many years. Ben will go further in and talk about how it is suitable for everyone that NCAA was finally punished for their actions. The last topic the boys will go into is a fantasy draft as Jonny, Elliott, and Ben; we pick six plays which were the biggest busts in the pros. 

In today's episode, former Steelers, Jets, and Chiefs running back Le'veon Bell is speaking out against the Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid. Is Le'veon Bell having mental issues with his brain, as this has not been the first time Bell has said something negative about his coach or teammates? Bell recently talked about how we were upset about his carries in the playoffs, and Bell stated he would rather retire than play for Reid. We will then get into the NBA playoffs. As we are well into the second round of the playoffs, the red-hot Phoenix Suns have already eliminated the Denver Nuggets as that has happened controversies happened following the NBA'S MVP Nikola Jokic getting ejected in the elimination game and Chris Paul going on the COVID protocol leaving Paul's playing status for the next round in jeopardy. Rumors have been swirling that Chris Paul is on COVID protocols because the NBA is trying to make it fair since Jokic got ejected in game 4. We will see in the next week whether CP3 will be eligible to play or not. The Jazz and Clippers series is heating up as Kawhi Leonard, and Paul George looks to save their legacies and try to beat the small market Utah Jazz as Donavon Mitchell is trying to steal the show, trying to prove everyone wrong as well. The series is tied at 2-2 while the Clippers were down 2-0. Kawhi Leonard is now out with an injury in which Paul George needs to show up big for the Clippers to beat the Jazz. Can Tre Young and the Hawks upset the one number one seeded Sixers? The Hawks vs. Sixers series is now evened up at 2-2 as the Sixers look to win game five and defend their home court. Young looks to carry a Hawks team who went through much adversity midseason and not expected to make it this far. 

In soccer news, the Euros have been kicking off the last week, but there was a scare last Saturday as Danish star Christian Erikson collapsed on the field with no contact at all. People still do not know how Erikson collapsed, and this shows how anything can happen to you. Erikson is in peak form shape and still had a heart attack. We will talk about how close Erikson was to dying and discuss how ESPN should have handled it. In 2021 baseball has gone from being a batters game to a pitchers game, but why is it? In the last week, the MLB has cracked down on both minor and major league pitchers to see if their using a material called spider tack, which helps glue bricks and rocks when people are constructing buildings. Star pitchers such as New York Yankees Garrett Cole and Tyler Glasgow have been accused of using this sticky tack. Next week, the MLB will be cracking down on the substance as the sticky tack gives the pitchers an unfair advantage with the ball as it gives it a faster spin rate on the pitch. It makes it harder for the batters to be able to read the ball.  In the end, we will draft a player from each decade being from the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90, 2000s, and 2010s. Jonny, Elliott, and Ben will have six picks and choose a player from each decade. Stay tuned, and please listen!!

COVID-19 has been difficult for many athletes (physically and mentally) and contributed to the prevalence of athlete support groups, especially at the college level. Support groups have shown to be a great way to cope. Jonny and Elliot will talk about psychological terms such as Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, nature vs nurture approach, and positive reinforcement. They will also discuss questions, asking questions like whether music helps athletes focus or distract during a performance.
