Straight Fire w/ Jason McIntyre - Steph Curry's Place in History, Lakers-Warriors Preview & NFL Draft Recap

On today's episode, Jason and Super Producer Rob G (Robert Guerra) get the party started by discussing Steph Curry's legendary 50-point performance in Game 7 against the Sacramento Kings. Steph put together arguably the greatest Game 7 in NBA Playoffs history, which now opens up the possibility that Curry could catapult himself into the top-5 players in NBA history with another championship in June.  However, in order for Steph to accomplish that goal, he'll have to get through LeBron James (again) in Round 2. J-Mac is taking the Golden State Warriors in 7 while Rob is picking the Los Angeles Lakers in 6. Either way, both guys agree that the Warriors and Lakers' Round 1 opponents did little to prepare them for what's coming in Round 2. Sticking in the NBA, it's hard to feel too good about the Miami Heat's Game 1 win over the New York Knicks now that Jimmy Butler is on the mend with an ankle injury. On the flip side, you have to feel very good about the Denver Nuggets after they bludgeoned the Phoenix Suns from behind the arc in Game 1. Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray and the fellas looked absolutely dominant and we saw nothing from Phoenix that would lead us to believe things will change moving forward. Finally, Jason and Rob close the show with a quick recap of the NFL Draft.
