The Sports Machine with Slim is a New England focused sports talk radio show. The Bruins and Celtics are both in the playoffs and cranking……so why would we start today’s show off talking about Anthony Edwards? Because he is the best player in the NBA! Jokic fans will get upset with me, but I have made up my mind. Edwards is the best defensive player in the NBA and that gives him the edge. Minnesota will square off against Denver in the next round of the NBA playoffs, so there will be a time in the near future when this topic will be front and center in basketball discussion circles. We at The Sports Machine with Slim just get to things a little bit earlier than most folks…….By the way: The Celtics play the Miami Heat tonight looking to go up 3 games to 1 in the series. The Bruins already lead Toronto 3-1 and will look to close out that series tomorrow night.
