We have a jam-packed episode of The Dunker Spot coming your way! First, Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones continue dissecting first-round playoff action! They salute the Timberwolves and Knicks for winning their series, examine what's next for the Nuggets and Hawks, then share what they'll be looking for as the first round comes to a close this weekend. From there, the guys shift to the WNBA to talk through more preseason action! Azzi Fudd makes her preseason debut as she, Paige Bueckers and the new-look Dallas Wings take on the Caitlin Clark-led Indiana Fever. The guys discuss how the Wings looked to attack, the usage of Bueckers and Fudd within the high-paced offense, and some early returns on the Wings' defense. Clark's comfort inside the arc -- as a driver and mid-range scorer -- popped in this one for the Fever. How scary can they be when Aliyah Boston re-enters the equation? Angel Reese also made her preseason debut with the Atlanta Dream, returning to her old stomping grounds to take on the Chicago Sky. The context around Reese is different, as was her usage. The guys discuss the positives of those shifts on both ends of the floor, and how Reese can become even more impactful as she gains more reps within the new system. We finally got a look at the Toronto Tempo and Portland Fire. Nekias and Steve talk through the early returns of their foundations -- spacing, defensive activity, and overall empowerment. There's a lot to like and build on!

The Lakers and Rockets met up at the Crypt on Wednesday in Game Five of the First Round of the NBA Playoffs. And despite the return of Austin Reaves (22 points), the offense could never seem to get into full gear after the first quarter, and even a late charge was for naught as LeBron James' (25 points, 0-6 from 3) struggles from deep continued, as the Lakers just didn't get the job done in a 99-93 loss as the series now is LA 3-2 heading back to Houston for Game Six on Friday.

Trudell is in with the guys today - and they start the show off talking about tonight's Lakers-Rockets Game 5. The team is ‘optimistic' about Austin Reaves playing - if AR plays, what does the rotation look like with him in it? Is Houston better without KD? Kap thinks so - but Sedano and Trudell say he's dead wrong. Jorge was on the sidelines for last night's Spurs-Blazers game and once again he was AMAZED by Wemby! Kap was locked in on the Celtics-76ers game and they discuss how awesome Joel Embiid was.

0:00 ... Show open ... Ross introduces panel and dedicates show #244 to Nikola Topic of the OKC Thunder who wears number 44. 0:53 ... The least interesting series so far is the Thunder/Suns series, which OKC led 3 games to one heading into Monday's game 4. It has been a boringly efficient effort by the defending champs. 6:53 ... The Lakers/Rockets series is next ... Kevin Durant has been a virtual "no show" while LeBron James has turned back the clock and dominated the series. Can the Lakers close the deal in game 5 and advance to the next round? Will Deandre Ayton's elbow to Alpy Sengun in game 4 light a fire under the Rockets? 14:46 ... The Celtics responded to their game 2 loss at home to the 76ers with two solid wins in games 3 and 4 in Philly. Boston has put a stranglehold on the series, which looks to finish up in 5 games on Tuesday in Boston. Joel Embiid tried to help the team when he returned in game 4, but his presence hurt guys like Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe who both had played so well prior to his return. 19:22 ... The Spurs are on the brink of moving on to the next round as they lead the Blazers 3 games to one after Sunday's comeback win. This "2 vs 7" series closely resembles the "2 vs 7" Boston/Philly series in the east. The talent gap is huge and the Spurs should easily move on in 5 games. 25:07 ... The Nuggets and Timberwolves played game 5 on Monday with Minnesota leading the series 3 games to one. The Nuggets were expected to come out and play with desperation, hoping to extend the series to game 6 in Minneapolis. With Anthony Edwards out of action for the Wolves, the Nuggets might still have a chance to win the series, but a win on Monday was mandatory. 31:02 ... The Raptors vs. Cavaliers series is tied 2-2 heading into Wednesday's game 5. The Cavs need some bounceback games from Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen when the series returns to Cleveland. Can James Harden have one of "those games" and spark his Cavs to a pivotal game 5 win? 37:40 ... The Knicks and Hawks are tied at 2-2 heading into Tuesday's game 5 in New York. Karl-Anthony Towns dominated game 4 on Saturday and if he continues to play like that, New York will emerge victorious and move on to the next round. 43:21 ... The Pistons vs Magic "1 vs 8" matchup has been the most compelling first round series. Orlando had a chance to push Detroit to the brink of elimination with a win on Monday night. The Magic seemed to sleepwalk through the regular season before advancing through the play-in games and playing solid basketball against the eastern conference's top seed. 50:07 ... In our final segment, we examine the career of Cleveland's Dennis Schroeder, who is in his 13th NBA season and 11th team. We play a fun game of "6 Degrees of Dennis Schroeder," and connect the veteran guard all the way back to Dr. James Naismith, the inventor of basketball. 56:32 ... Ross wraps the show and says goodbye. TRT 56:49 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

With the Lakers up 3-0, they had the opportunity to finish the series on Sunday night in Houston with another meeting against the Rockets. And with a chance to close it out, the Lakers' energy just wasn't there as 24 turnovers and only five made three pointers spelled doom for LA as they got throttled by Houston 115-96.

The Rockets fell to the Lakers in game three of the first round due to some late game blunders that had Logan Murdock, Raja Bell and Howard Beck puzzled. Why has the theme for the Rockets all season been the inability to close out games? Did they miss out on an opportunity to acquire a guard at the deadline to help with these issues? The Celtics defeated the Sixers in a close one in Philly to take the series lead 2-1. Is Jayson Tatum fully back? Has Rudy Gobert gotten the better end of his matchup against Nikola Jokic?

Charles Barkley joins the show! Chuck talks to the guys about a plethora of things, including some funny interactions with celebrities during his playing days, his thoughts on the NFL Draft last night and admiration for Rams GM Les Snead - who was enlightened by Kap telling him they're both Auburn and Alabama guys! Chuck gets into the Lakers-Rockets series, talks about how 41-year-old LeBron's high basketball IQ has outsmarted Houston, but that their terrible offense is the main reason why the Lakers are up 2-0. He wonders what will happen to the Lakers' chemistry if/when Austin Reaves and Luka comes back - and how good of a coach JJ would be without LeBron. Back to the NFL Draft and the Rams - Sean McVay said Simpson "will compete with Stetson" - not exactly a ringing endorsement of your No. 13 pick, is that a big deal? Plus more thoughts on how they expect their QB depth chart to pan out with Simpson. The Rams still need offensive weapons and edge depth - what does the rest of the draft look like for them?

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Wednesday. Wednesday, April 22, 2026 on Cash That Ticket, Munaf Manji and Uncle Diamond Dave Esler open a loaded episode fresh off a two-and-oh best bet night, with Jrue Holiday delivering for Portland and the Celtics-Sixers under cashing in a tightly contested Game 2 that evened the Eastern Conference series heading back to Philadelphia. The big injury news from Tuesday night centers on Victor Wembanyama, who went down hard in the second quarter against Portland after hitting his chin on the floor and has been placed in the NBA's concussion protocol, a development both hosts expect to cost him at minimum Games 3 and 4 of the Spurs-Blazers series and one that will reshape betting lines across the Western Conference bracket as the week progresses. Over in the Lakers-Rockets series, Munaf and Dave dig into why a short-handed Los Angeles team is up 2-0 on Houston, crediting LeBron James and an unexpected backcourt of Luke Kennard and Marcus Smart, who combined for 48 points in Game 2 while Kevin Durant finished with nine turnovers and just three second-half points despite being the more heralded star in the matchup. The depth of the analysis on Game 2 between Orlando and Detroit is where this episode really locks in, with Dave identifying the matchup problem Detroit faces against a Magic team that has size, length, and balance in their starting five, while Munaf breaks down the free throw disparity, the paint differential, and the realistic expectation of positive shooting regression from Desmond Bane and Jalen Suggs, who combined to go 4-of-18 from three in Game 1 while Cade Cunningham accounted for nearly 39 percent of the Pistons' entire offensive output on his own. Both hosts land on Orlando plus 8.5 with Munaf adding the money line as a secondary consideration, and neither would be shocked to see the eight seed leave Detroit with a 2-0 series lead. The Oklahoma City Thunder discussion arrives at the same conclusion via a different path, with Dave and Munaf breaking down why Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's 25 points on 5-of-18 shooting in a blowout win tells you everything you need to know about the talent gap between the defending champions and a Phoenix Suns team whose three best offensive players combined for seven total assists in Game 1. Dave targets the Suns team total under and the Thunder in the first quarter, while Munaf rides the Thunder team total over 116.5, reasoning that Oklahoma City can hit that number while still pulling their starters in the fourth. The MLB segment covers a full Wednesday card headlined by Shohei Ohtani on the mound for the Dodgers against the Giants, Max Fried facing Ranger Suárez in a Yankees-Red Sox clash at Fenway, Walker Buehler looking to extend his comeback against Colorado, and a Mets team that has now dropped twelve straight games, prompting dark comedy and real sympathy in equal measure. Dave's best bet is the Mets-Twins first five innings under 4.5, built around a young Minnesota arm named Pryor who has elite strikeout numbers in the minors and faces a Mets lineup that has been historically quiet. Munaf's best bet is the Cade Cunningham PRA over 45.5 at minus 108 on DraftKings, banking on guaranteed usage, shot volume, and multi-category production from the Pistons' only reliable offensive weapon in what amounts to a must-not-lose Game 2.

A huge breakdown of all the Game 1s. Orlando is suddenly up off the mat and becoming the team we thought they could be. Is Detroit in trouble? Victor Wembanyama's playoff debut was as spectacular as we thought. Portland tried some unique things to counter the Spurs and Victor; what worked, what didn't, and what else can they try? Jayson Tatum looked totally in command as Boston rolled in Game 1. Jalen Williams reemerged onto the scene as OKC's defense throttled Phoenix. It's the first day of the playoffs and we broke down every game in excruciating detail. Denver handled Minnesota despite poor shooting, is that a harbinger for the rest of the series? New York held serve at home against the Hawks, but is there reason for optimism in Atlanta that they can compete in the series? The Lakers totally embarrassed and out-thought the Rockets in the absence of KD. Will his return be enough, or are major adjustments needed by Ime Udoka? Toronto failed to compete against Cleveland in every area and needs to hit the “play harder” adjustment button.
