Jarrett Allen

The Young Man and the Three

This week we’re extremely excited to welcome Cleveland Cavaliers big man Jarrett Allen for his first appearance on The Old Man and The Three! JJ and Tommy open up the episode by taking a look at the recent play of the Milwaukee Bucks, Boston Celtics, Miami Heat, and other Eastern Conference contenders to find out how likely each could make it out of the east. Then, Jarrett joins to discuss whether or not he thinks he should’ve been an NBA All-Star this season and his improvements and developments on the Cavs and how it compares to his play from when he was on the Brooklyn Nets. He also gets into what it was like playing with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving on the Nets. Jarrett also explains how the Cavs had an amazing record when Darius Garland and Evan Mobley with both injured. Then, he talks about Donovan Mitchell’s incredible (maybe MVP-like?) season, the expectations the Cavs have for this year’s playoffs, and what he learned from last year’s series against the New York Knicks. He also shares amazing insight on how his role as a big has changed over the last few seasons as the league changes, and his mindset about blocking dunks. Lastly, they close it out with a draft of their favorite baked goods.
