    00:00: Cavs' Playoff Mode & Expectations
    The show opens with Danny and Anthony discussing whether the Cavs can "flip a switch" come playoff time. They examine the perception among fans and media that the team's recent play is cause for concern, and debate if those worries are warranted considering the team's success and regular season fatigue.

    08:24: Harden & Mitchell Playoff Fit, Lineup & Defense
    Danny and Lima analyze the offensive chemistry and playoff potential of James Harden and Donovan Mitchell. They discuss the ability of both stars to elevate their play, concerns about Harden’s postseason reputation, their roles together, and the defensive liabilities that might be exploited. The conversation also shifts to lineup combinations and concerns about missing key wing defenders.

    22:23: Playoff Bracket Strategy & Fifth Starter
    The final segment focuses on the looming playoff matchups, specifically whether the Cavs should try to avoid Boston and how more playoff games could help with team chemistry. The hosts also debate the crucial decision about the fifth starter, considering injuries and the impact of wing depth on defense, and reflect on prepping for a legitimate postseason run.
