Happy Monday everyone! Welcome back to the Neighborhood Podcast! Hope everyone had a good weekend. Now lets kick off the week with some new content.
The NBA Finals have been entertaining to say the least! Denver took Game 1 and Miami in typical Heat fashion responded with taking Game 2. Led by Gabe Vincent, the Miami Heat are now headed back to South Beach for Game 3 on Wednesday night. Can they take control of this series?
We all know Jimmy is the leader of this team on the floor but lately it has been the impact he’s had off the court that has spoken volume! He has encouraged his teammates and lifted them up throughout these playoffs. His unwavering faith in his teammates is what drove this Heat victory. The team shot the ball better, attacked the rim and got to the free throw line a whole lot more than in Game 1.
Now as for Denver, Jokic goes for 41 points and the Nuggets fell short. This was truly a game of runs as both teams held multiple double digit leads to where the opposing team responded with runs of their own. The issue the Nuggets had were struggles from the supporting cast of Michael Porter Junior and KCP. Denver’s biggest strength is when the team plays well as a unit and it just seemed like those two could not get it going. Will this slump continue?
In some surprising NFL news, rumors are circulating that Derrick Henry was considering retirement? With all that has been going on in Tennessee this offseason could this be true? Henry has had some injuries lately and he is the focal point of their offense but has it been too much for him? Someone of that size can only take so much but only time will tell if there is any truth to this rumor.
Speaking of rumors the Minnesota Vikings are supposedly parting ways with former all pro running back Dalvin Cook. There seem to be two teams in the mix for his services this coming season. The Buffalo Bill and Miami Dolphins have expressed interest in signing Cook if he does in fact hit the free agent market. Which team do you believe he would be best suited on?
