Warriors Win While Luka Looks Mortal + House of Strauss founder Ethan Strauss

Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre

On today's episode, Jason and Producer Rob G kick things off by sharing their thoughts on the Golden State Warriors' drubbing of the Dallas Mavericks in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals. Steph Curry was phenomenal, but it's hard to make any sweeping conclusions about the series moving forward given that nobody expects Luka Doncic and the Mavs to play this poorly again. In fact, the same can be said about what happened in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Miami Heat and the Boston Celtics. Does anyone really expect Jayson Tatum to have six turnovers in a single quarter ever again? Of course not. Both of these series should be lengthy, and we can't wait to see how they unfold. Later, longtime NBA writer and House of Strauss founder Ethan Strauss swings by to discuss how he was able to break into the sports media business, why he ultimately decided to leave ESPN and go into business for himself, what it was like covering the Warriors in the early days of Curry’s career, Kevin Durant's psyche and why thought Golden State was the right fit for him (until it wasn't), what to make of the current NBA Playoff ratings, and much more!
