The Bridge Episode 12: Eddie Ocasio joins to discuss the first two games of the NBA Finals, the pressure social media has placed on LeBron James and the significance of the first Triple Crown in 37 years

The Bridge welcomed Eddie Ocasio to the program, a loyal listener to the podcast and fan of sports. You can follow him on twitter at @Captain_EdO.

This podcast was recorded well into the night immediately following game two of the NBA Finals, so discussions center around the first two games and what both the Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors did well and did poorly in the 1-1 series.

Through it all, LeBron James has been the focal point of the Finals, whether topics were good or bad. Is he the most pressured athlete, at least in social media, that the sports world has ever seen? We debate if any other athletes in any sport compare to The King.

American Pharoah won the first Triple Crown in 37 years, what did it mean for horse racing and for those who turned in?
