The Suns’ Flawed Approach, Kawhi Leonard’s Career Crossroads, and Where Do the Bucks Go from Here?
Immediately following the Timberwolves’ win over the Phoenix Suns, The Ringer’s Justin Verrier and Seerat Sohi went live on the Ringer NBA YouTube channel to react to tonight’s slate of playoff games (00:40). They begin by discussing Phoenix’s flaws and how much of their playoff struggles are to blame on Kevin Durant. Then, they give Anthony Edwards and the T-Wolves the love they deserve before moving onto Dallas’ win over the Clippers (25:12), which prompts Justin to claim that Kawhi Leonard is a “zombie.” And just how far exactly can the Mavericks take this thing? Plus, following Tyrese Haliburton's heroics that pushed the Pacers back the Bucks, Justin and Seerat wonder what the future holds in store for Milwaukee (41:30).

Customer Reviews
A five star if Howard Beck is on all the time
Real ones this past week with Howard Beck and Raja Bell was definitely great. If they were the only two on I would definitely rate them 5 stars.
Raja is the best part of the show
Logan and Howard are solid and they have great insights and chemistry with Raja. But man I think Raja is hands down the best part of the show. Every time he is not in an episode I am let down. Raja just has such good stories and perspectives and is super funny too. Group chat is good too but Real Ones when Raja is on is my favorite by far.
Some good some bad
Raja is by far the standout. Logan is a good addition, but they don’t need Beck. I feel as if his placement is forced. I will still listen for Raja, I feel as if he is a quality analyst.
The other show with Wos and those two super nerds is bad. Wos has too many garbage takes, which is annoying because his primary debate strategy is just to laugh really loud and say “Come on now guys”. And the two nerds are too effeminate to push back, so they just serve as Wos’ yes men. Example: The fact that he went on and on laughing off Sabonis as a third team candidat….but put Haliburton on second team for having two and a half good months is the nail in the coffin for me as far as this show goes.
