With Amin out today, Charlotte has a guest co-host who's really shaking things up: Al Gorithm. Al is helping Charlotte get into everyone's algorithm using cutting-edge technology to pinpoint topics that are guaranteed to drive traffic to Oddball's various social media platforms. Is Anthony Edwards the next Michael Jordan? Do the Heat stand a chance against the Celtics without Jimmy Butler? Can the Mavs keep this pace in their series against the Clippers?
