Straight Fire w/ Jason McIntyre - The Warriors' Winning Formula, Why You Can't Trust Kawhi & Trey Lance Trade Rumors

**Please excuse the audio issues throughout the first half of the podcast**

On today's episode, Jason and Super Producer Rob G (Robert Guerra) kick things off by sharing their thoughts on the Golden State Warriors' blowout win over the Sacramento Kings. With Draymond Green suspended, the Warriors went small around Steph Curry and still managed to dominate in the restricted area. Should Golden State stick with the small ball moving forward? Or, was this game just an anomaly given how poorly the Kings shot the ball offensively? Sticking in the Western Conference, the Phoenix Suns barely beat the Kawhi Leonard-less Los Angeles Clippers to take a 2-1 series lead. Even with their starters playing such a heavy load, the Suns should still have enough firepower to get through this series. On the flip side, if you're a Clippers fan, how confident can you feel moving forward with Kawhi as your franchise player? Is it officially time to cut bait from the oft-injured superstar? In the Eastern Conference, the Philadelphia 76ers win over the Brooklyn Nets was marred by absolutely horrid officiating that saw James Harden get ejected for punching a guy in the groin, Joel Embiid allowed to play after kicking a different guy in the groin and Nic Claxton booted for staring down Embiid after a dunk. Absolutely ridiculous. Later, J-Mac closes the show with a deep dive into the reports that the San Francisco 49ers are fielding calls on quarterback Trey Lance. Lance hasn’t done much in his brief NFL career, but with incumbent starter Brock Purdy coming off elbow surgery, are we sure trading Lance is the best idea?
