Was Steph Curry?s Game 4 performance the best of his NBA Playoff career? How frustrating has Draymond Green?s performance been and what does he need to adjust going into Game 5? Has Andrew Wiggings been the Warriors second best player so far in the Finals? What is the Warriors key to victory in Game 5? Then, Walker Mehl (@Locked On Hornets) stops in to discuss the Charlotte Hornets hiring Kenny Atkinson as their new head coach and the expectations moving forward for LaMelo Ball and the rest of the organization. Why did Atkinson get the position over Mike D'Antoni, the other finalist? What about Atkinson's previous coaching roles should encourage Hornets fans about this hire? How much of a factor did LaMelo Ball play in this decision? What are key differences between James Borrego and Atkinson? Expectations for the Hornets in this year's NBA Draft? Lastly, Rylan Stiles (@Locked on Thunder) comes in to discuss the Oklahoma City Thunder draft strategy with picks 2, 12, 30, and 34 in this year?s 2022 NBA Draft and who will ultimately join Shae Gilgeous-Alexander, Josh Giddey and the rest of the young core.

Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) is joined by Nick Angstadt (@Locked On Mavericks) to discuss Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks taking Game 4 and evening up the series against Devin Booker, Chris Paul and the Phoenix Suns in the Western Conference Semifinals. How did the Mavs get off to such a hot start offensively? Is Luka at his best in games like this with more playmaking instead of scoring? What was going on with Chris Paul and the officiating? How has Dallas handled the size of Phoenix with Deandre Ayton and JaVale McGee? Then, Wes Goldberg (@Locked On Heat) swings by to discuss the Miami Heat Game 4 loss at the hands of James Hardne, Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers despite a 40-point performance from Jimmy Butler. Do the Heat need to adjust how they are guarding James Harden? What about Joel Embiid? How has Miami adjusted the way they use Bam Adebayo defensively? Does the poor three-point shooting mean it's time to break out Duncan Robinson? How concerning is Kyle Lowry's lingering hamstring issue? Finally, Shawn Coleman (@Locked On Grizzlies) jumps in to discuss the playoff series outlook between the Memphis Grizzlies and Golden State Warriors as Ja Morant is likely to miss Game 4 after a possibly dirty play by Jordan Poole in Game 3. Was the foul by Jordan Poole a dirty play? Is there a double-standard being set by the Warriors after the reaction to Gary Payton II's injury at the hands of Dillon Brooks? How were the Grizzlies able to find success WITHOUT Ja Morant earlier this season? What more can Memphis do to slow down Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Jordan Poole? #Mavericks #Heat #Grizzlies Subscribe to the Locked On NBA YouTube Channel: Locked On NBA Follow/Subscribe/Listen Anywhere: linktr.ee/LockedOnNBA Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers Built Bar ?

Was Draymond Green's ejection warranted? Who stepped up with Draymond gone? How impactful was it going small against Memphis and starting Gary Payton II? Are Steph and Klay's shooting struggles worrying? Can Jordan Poole stay THIS hot? Lastly, Devon Givens (@Locked On Sixers) stops by to discuss James Harden, Tyrese Maxey & the Philadelphia 76ers preparing for life without their MVP-caliber big man Joel Embiid against the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
