Episode Description from the Publisher

Mike Anguilano and Jasper Apollonia break down one of the NBA’s most heated award debates: should J.B. Bickerstaff or Joe Mazzulla take home Coach of the Year honors? The guys compare the jobs both coaches have done this season, what each has meant to their team’s success, and why Bickerstaff has built such a strong case in Detroit. They also dive into Cade Cunningham’s return from injury, discussing how he looked in his first game back, what stood out about his performance, and how his presence changes the outlook for the Pistons as the playoffs approach next week. Plus, the guys talk about Detroit’s postseason momentum, what Cade’s health means for the team’s ceiling, and why the Pistons could be a dangerous matchup heading into the final stretch.
