Russell Westbeast, IT´s feast and 3rd in the EastIn tonight´s episode, our sports roundup is highlighted by college football and the outcome of one of the most watched games in the world: El Clásico, Real Madrid vs. Barcelona, which took place on Saturday.  We discuss Russell Westbrook´s unprecedented stats and performance and his real chances of leading the Thunder to a long run in the Playoffs.  Isaiah Thomas led the Celtics to a 107-106 win over the Sixers thanks to his 37 points, which allow the Celtics to currently be in third position in the Eastern Conference.  And of course, we make our predictions for this week´s games ahead of next weekend´s payoff.  00:30:00Banner 18noRussell Westbrook,Isaiah Thomas,Boston CelticsThis show is about Russell Westbrook, Isaiah Thomas and Boston CelticsEpisode 6.

Finding a way, awkward standings and free throw strugglesWe wrap up this busy weekend in sports, with Ohio State beating Michigan in a thrilling double overtime game, Kentucky upsetting Louisville and college basketball insights.   We analyze the close - and mediocre - Eastern Conference standings, where, contrary to the West, no team except for the Cavaliers seems to be able to take a leap. Despite a loss to the Spurs on Friday night, the Celtics were 2-1 in this past week showing signs of improvement. However, the team has to go on a significant win streak to be taken seriously, and recently published stats suggest we have a big issue in the free throw category.  00:27:00Banner 18noEast,West,Free throws,Celtics,Isaiah ThomasThis show is about Eastern Conference, Boston Celtics and Isaiah ThomasEpisode 5.

We discuss the league-leading Los Angeles Clippers and they´re impressive recent performances.  James Harden and Russell Westbrook, two of the frontrunners for the MVP trophy, have a combined 11 thirty-point and ten-assist games, while the rest of the NBA has three in total.  We discuss how Al Horford came back just in time from his concussion to win a game for the Celtics in the last second, and how Brad Stevens´ team needs to step up and finally settle in the top of the Eastern Conference. Finally, we will provide you with our weekly predictions, which have taken a little twist.  00:30:00Banner 18noClippers,Horford,Harden,WestbrookThis episode is about Los Angeles Clippers, James Harden, Russell Westbrook and Boston Celtics.Episode 4.
