The tried and trusted routine of waiting to see where Giannis gets better has been a staple, but who else can step up and lift the Bucks to a top seed in the East. Kane and Justin discuss that topic, before moving into some listener/viewer responses to a conversation about MarJon Beauchamp. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
