Description

We start off this week with some banter about the dry weather, Jamaal's return to the oTENTiks, Justin's victories in "Uno", and Jamaal's passion for Hypertheticals. Next, we jump into some NBA talk as we discuss the reinvigorated and frisky Celtics pushing Miami to a game 6, Miami's injuries struggles, Tyler Herro's poor sartorial choices, Jokic's dominance, MPJ's irrational confidence, Jamal Murray's winning mentality, why Denver will win it all, the Jokic brothers' shenanigans, Steve Nash: Coach of the Toronto Raptors, and Carmelo Anthony's legacy (7:00).

We briefly talk that hockey before diving into tennis. Jamaal provides his French Open Power Rankings, his longshots, who he's cheering for, and interesting first round matches (40:00). Justin recaps Pacific FC v. Vancouver Whitecaps (49:26). We round out the episode with our disdain for the ubiquitous road construction in Victoria, Jamaal shares a story about Justin's kids, and "Q&A with J&J" focuses on some of our favorite summer songs (52:58).
