Welcome to "Missing the Point," hosted by Dave Clarke and Michael Marcangelo! In this exciting and in-depth breakdown of the 2025 NBA Playoffs, we dive head-first into every critical first-round series, analyzing all the storylines and superstar performances. Hear our detailed reaction to the Oklahoma City Thunder's record-breaking dominance over the Memphis Grizzlies and why Shai Gilgeous-Alexander could lead them to the NBA Finals.

Explore detailed analyses of Donovan Mitchell’s vintage performance for the Cleveland Cavaliers against Tyler Herro’s Miami Heat, why Tyrese Haliburton and the Indiana Pacers have shocked Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks, and why the Pistons-Knicks series is quickly becoming a must-watch battle featuring Cade Cunningham and Jalen Brunson.
