Welcome Back Escalade!

The 2010 NBA Playoffs are officially here and Dave and I decided to call on our pal Troy "Escalade" Jackson to get his thoughts on who he thinks will be still playing for the Larry O'Brien trophy when June rolls around.

It's always a treat to welcome the former And 1 Mix Tape Tour sensation to the program and Mark Jackson's little BIG brother didn't disappoint as he delivered classic material in true Escalade fashion.

Not only did he give us his thoughts on the NBA Playoffs but Escalade also shared some insights on super rookie, Brandon Jennings, the state of his hometown, Knicks and what he saw Steve Nash doing with a soccer ball one day.
