Verno and KOC share what they enjoyed the most from KOC's interview with Victor Wembanyama before turning their attention to the play-in games from earlier this week (01:29). They discuss their disappointment with Zion Williamson's injury and Brandon Ingram's performance in the Pelicans' loss to the Lakers, as well as their surprise about the Kings easily defeating the Warriors (10:16). Do the Lakers stand any chance to upset the Nuggets? How far can the inexperienced Thunder go? The guys debate whether Joel Embiid can bounce back to his MVP form against the Knicks (38:48). Also, they discuss the hideous performance from the Hawks, Coby White's huge game for the Bulls, the Heat's chances without Jimmy Butler, and more (47:09).
