    Tom Haberstroh, Amin Elhassan and producer Anthony Mayes discuss the implications of TNT's 'Inside the NBA' being broadcast on ESPN. This past weekend featured a heavy dose of the NBA taking accountability for bad calls in their Pool Reports & Last Two Minute Reports. Most aggrieved were the Bucks, who capped off a week of referee contention with a $25k fine for Doc Rivers and an Illuminati coded Thanasis tweet. Then we bring in Truth Teller Brandon Payne of Accelerate Basketball to take us behind the curtain of the Warriors hot start and Steph Curry's continued excellence at the age of 36.
