The Ringer’s Bill Simmons is joined by David Jacoby and Kevin Wildes to talk about Denver’s dominating win over the Heat in Game 3 of the NBA Finals, Nikola Jokic ascending to the indisputable best player in the league, and the road map for Miami to still win this series before predicting tomorrow morning's headlines. Later, they discuss the rumor that Phoenix will waive Chris Paul, what’s next for Bob Myers, and a wild day on social media for Zion Williamson (1:10). Then, Bill is joined by Matt Belloni from Puck to discuss Chris Licht’s failure at CNN, how the network can pick up the pieces, and which cable entities can survive the 2020s. They also discuss the current state of media and if the streaming bubble is starting to burst (67:20).
