On this week's show, we preview the NBA Finals, hold our own WWE draft in advance of the impending brand split, and take our best guesses on where Kevin Durant will end up after a disappointing loss in the Conference Finals. The Broad Street Line: The future of sports talk radio has finally arrived.
The 2016 NBA Western Conference Finals will go down as one to remember, and it may have left us with more questions than answers. The hosts will attempt to answer some of them, like where the comeback ranks, was it an upset, and what does it ultimately mean for the future of Kevin Durant?
After they pay their respects to the departed OKC Thunder and Toronto Raptors, the focus will be all things NBA Finals between the Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Does either team benefit from having played last year in the Finals against one another? What is on the line for the legacies of the various superstars? How many hours will JR Smith stay awake straight if he is a champion?

After looking completely out of their league in the first two games of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Toronto Raptors gave Jurassic Park and company reason to believe in Game 3 with a double-digit victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Is this a sign that the Cavs finally have some opposition for the Eastern Conference crown, or are the Raptors simply poised for the gentlemen's sweep?
The hosts will also discuss unique awards for the playoffs, like who was this year's LaMarcus Aldridge and Chris Paul.
