Ok, so there are good teammates… there are great teammates… and then there is Boban Marjanović. Universally loved around the NBA as an unending positive force in the locker room and beyond, he’s also a pretty damn good basketball player too, if you haven’t noticed. Having jumped in and contributed solidly during this Mav’s playoff run, Boban is showing the league and its fans what he can do. But to do that, he’s got to be ready when Coach Carlisle calls his name, and that’s just one of the things he, JJ, and Tommy discuss during this fun and light-hearted EAT PRAY DUNK episode of the OM3. And then they end it with a great TOP 5/Draft where they pick the best soups. So grab your spoon and join in.
