Luka Doncic: Dee and Swag talk about Lukas monster playoff performance against the Clippers in game 4, and why he has had so much success in the NBA. This conversation also trails off at times to talk about the Rockets, and why both Dee and Swag don't see them being true contenders. Hardens style of play, and the constant three point chucking is not a winning formula in the playoffs
21:00
Dee discusses how teams used to prepare in order to take down the contenders, the biggest threats in the league. How it was about matching up (Uses example of Longley as someone who could bang with Shaq down low), and the Rockets went away from that formula, and will get crushed by the Lakers as they will not be able to cover them.
25:15
Swag and Dee agree that Russell Westbrook is intense, and that he will most likely be the X factor if the Rockets can make it further. They agree that his shot selection is important, and his motor needs to be conistent.

Swag discusses the atmosphere of playing overseas, the excitement of the crowd, the intensity.
