DWade Reacts to NBA Playoffs, Rising Teams & Fan Q&A
About this episode
Dwyane Wade discusses the NBA playoffs, team performances, and answers fan questions.
In this playoff edition of The Checkin with Dwyane Wade, Dwyane and Bob break down the first round with fan questions throughout. Dwyane talks about the Timberwolves’ crowd-fueled defense, how much the Nuggets missed Aaron Gordon the second he came out, and shares his personal formula for winning a series, stars win two, role players win one, the coach wins one. He also gives Scoot Henderson his flowers, warns Knicks fans not to get too comfortable with Atlanta finding their footing under Coach Quinn, and explains why playoff officiating naturally goes to whoever controls the physical temperature of the game. Fan questions cover Damian Lillard’s return, advice for playoff rookies, what championship prep really feels like, why Dwyane never prioritized the three, and how today’s game compares to his era. Dwyane wraps buzzing about the parity this playoffs, anybody can beat anybody right now. Music Credit: Khari Mateen.
