Harden’s Revenge, MVP Controversy, and Top-Five Recruit Nate Ament

Austin and Pausha react to Malik Beasley’s untimely comments on guarding James Harden after The Beard dropped a 50-piece on the Pistons (1:22). Then, Austin argues where Harden ranks among the likes of Stephen Curry, Damian Lillard, and Russell Westbrook (6:40). Later, they weigh the arguments for Jokic or SGA as MVP (25:05). They then run through a few stand out moments from the week, including LeBron hitting the 50K-point mark and the Celtics duo of Payton Pritchard and Derrick White putting up 40 points each in the same game (31:05). Finally, five-star high school recruit Nate Ament joins the show to talk about his upcoming college decision, his time playing ball with Austin, and how he remains grounded through it all (46:11).
