THE HERD - Hour 3 - Chris Broussard joins The Herd

In Hour 3 of The Herd with Colin Cowherd, the show dives into the upcoming NBA playoffs, focusing on the highly anticipated Sixers vs. Knicks series. Hosts Colin Cowherd and Chris Broussard analyze team dynamics, player matchups, and roster strengths, with particular emphasis on Joel Embiid’s health and the Knicks’ depth advantage. They debate whether Philadelphia’s star power can overcome their lack of bench production, while also discussing the broader implications of team identity, coaching, and roster construction across the league. The conversation extends to NFL rookie jersey sales, the Giants' draft strategy, and the potential for underdog teams like the Raiders and Jets to improve. Later, the hosts reflect on the evolving nature of sports analytics, the limitations of relying solely on data in high-pressure playoff situations, and the importance of situational play. They also speculate on major offseason moves, including potential trades involving Kevin Durant, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and LeBron James, and consider Steve Kerr’s future with the Warriors. The episode closes with a mix of sports predictions and cultural commentary, including a nostalgic look at the 1984 era on the podcast Look Back At It.
