Show Notes
Ken and Lima dig into the Cavs' "soft" label, playing Chris Fedor's take that the reputation dates back to the 2023 Knicks series and that losing Max Strus and Dennis Schroeder removed the team's edge. Callers blame a lack of heart and argue over who the "dawg" should be, with one pointing at Evan Mobley, while Ken and Lima say Donovan Mitchell isn't an enforcer and give the team credit for surviving two tough playoff series. Ken also owns up to blaming Darius Garland's lack of seriousness for years, and they tease Chris Kaiser on the DAZN schedule and Daryl Ruiter on the Browns.
