This playoffs has been my favorite in maybe a decade. Not just the finals this year, its every round. Wild.
Best playoffs I can remember in a very long time, because so much is up in the air, not pre-determined.
The first round was some hot garbage except for 2 rounds
I know, so many series have already been fantastic!!! (the only problem is that I’m struggling to keep up with my everyday life at this point - I’ve never been completely invested in essentially every single game😅)
@@user-mi3di3qn8b??
@@mccm333 ehhh idk. Boston is the most heavily favored team since the Warriors runs. Only one game 7 in the 1st round, 2 sweeps, 2 gentlemen's sweeps. Last year was pretty epic, Denver won but nobody (except me and denver fans) predicted them to win until they swept the Lakers.
What makes this year better for me is that OKC is the #1 seed, as an OKC fan.
As a cavs fan, you guys went into more detail on the Cavs Celtics series more than anyone else besides Cle sports radio people and wanted to say thank u
Thank you for the Celtics talk. Everyone does skip over them, no matter who they're playing, unless they lose.
As a Celtics fan, you start to wonder when NBA podcasts would do anything more then glaze them over at the end. I was worried it would have to be the ECF finals before that would happen...
As an update: Wembanyama wins Rookie of the Year. 99/99 votes, unanimous.
Appreciate someone going in depth on these series!
you guys are tremendous analysts love from uk london
Only on the dunker spot do we get Luka vs SGA but we talk about Gordon Hayward, love you guys man 😂 51:51
Thank you for talking about Cleveland
Thank you for giving my Cavs some gd coverage! 😍
Steve was definitely a force on the offensive glass in his prime, and probably a lockdown defender as well
Great Show!
You guys are so insightful. Taking away Max Strus conversation is super interesting. X factor for the series
No player on the Cavs is an X factor in that series. The only X factor is the Celtics as a whole. If the Celtics come out and play their game there is nothing the Cavs can do to win. The only chance the Cavs have is if the Celtics beat themselves
@@Toucansam46Porzingis being out is an issue
@@Toucansam46Cavs have always matched up well against the Celtics. Porzingis was the difference this season and he’s not playing so…
@@McSnuff29 they literally haven’t always matched up well against the Celtics 😂 if you think you have a shot I won’t argue your delusions but you’re going to be very disappointed. The Cavs have no one who can score other than Mitchell and they have no one who can guard Tatum Brown or White especially when your center is going to be guarding Horford on the 3 point line the entire series. Celtics are better at every position except point guard and our point guard is a defensive menace
@@gnielsen07 it’s not. The Celtics were 21-4 without KP this year. The Cavs outside of Mitchell can’t score and congrats you have 3 all defensive team guards ready to check ball. You have absolutely no one who can guard Tatum Brown and White while Al and Jrue rain 3’s all over your defense that could barely stop the Magic
FEELING GOOD FEELING GREAT
Popping in to say: shout out to Wemby for getting all 99 1st place votes!
THE GOATSS
Thank god

1:16:37 how did that turn out?
Y’all make me scratch my beard now when i am thinking.
Knowing they recorded the day of the roty announcement. Interesting to see their justification and thought process on why Wemby won't get 99/99 votes. Spoiler alert,
he did.
If Chet were on San Antonio right now, do you think he would have had the same kind of impact?
Chet is a Pop kind of guy. Doesn't hog the ball. Doesn't turn it over. Plays good defense. Can score if he gets shoots. But doesn't need shoots in impact the game. That's the Spurs championship teams. Chet would work. Wemby is good don't get me wrong, but Chet was just as impactful for OKC that Wemby was for the Spurs.
@@larrylindgren9484 I don't think he has the same year wemby has, especially considering this is Actually wembys rookie year when Chet actually been around the league for a year 🤷🏾♂️
Should’ve said Wiggins or Exum.. this is a Wiggins series
Facts
Mavs in 6 vs okc and can’t wait to see mavs vs timberwolves in the western conference finals this year it’s gonna happen ;)
14:01 “How do you think Boston goes about opening him up.” …… Pause! (S/O to Club 520). 😂
Crazy work 😂
Dallas has 2 of the best PnR defenders in the league.
Minnesota going to run through everyone it looks like
OKC fan here ... We have to rebound better, that is our weakness plain and simple. In the first series it would of been a totally different match up if the Pelicans had Zion. If Pelicans had one more big man we would see a different match up, I think OKC would still win but it would look more like a 4-2 first round win.
OKC in 6!!
Dummy
GSG unanimous ☝🏿
Mavs in 6. Isaac from Liberia here.
Cleveland has a good team. They don’t stand a chance in this series. It’s best if their fans just accept that ahead of time they’ll have more fun watching the games
OKC in 6. Boston in 6. LFG!!
OKC in 5🔥⚡️
I rather see Dort start on Ky and Dub on Luka
Why?
Hell no, Lu is better against bigger, ball dominant players. He has the stature, physicality, and mindset to "play bigger". Jdub can play bigger too, but his length will be better in defending kyrie since no one on the thunder is quick enough to keep pace with kyrie. At least with Jdubs length he can recover better after getting cooked.
@@poly.fcracka9362 ok lol
MAVS in 6 - Luka at 100%... Mavs in 5
😂😂😂
@@TexanByNature88why u laughing he talking facts
@@acewocc6708 Facts? 😂😂😂
Luka isn’t at 100%. But he’s gonna need to push through it and share the ball to make it happen.
Dallas in 6
Thank you for spending half an hour on Boston🤣
Mavs in 6
Okoro didn’t start when Allen was out against Orlando, Marcus morris did..
Morris started the Game 6, Okoro started in Game 7. I could’ve been more clear, though, to your point.
Mavs in 5 or 6
Thunder in 3

Mavs in 7 and Celtics in 4
@@dearmas90684, 5, 6, 7…..Celtics will win the series. Put your house on it.
Without KP, it might push to 6
@@dearmas9068Chill tf out. It's just a prediction. I have Boston in 5 but let's not pretend that there is no possibility of Cleveland getting swept.
@dearmas9068 Please tell me how since I'm just a casual? Boston has one of the best offensive ratings in the league and a top 5 defensive rating.
Cleveland is terrible offensively to the point where Donovan Mitchell had to score more points in games 6 and 7 of the first round than the rest of his team COMBINED.
Gtfoh nephew.
@@dearmas9068 Was just defending OP here. Oh and the ones feeling the need to call others casual are usually the biggest casuals of them all.
Please coach the Lakers so we can see them be even more trash 👌
Jj Reddick should really be on his channel morw
Bruh I come to jj redick to hear jj redick talk not some random dudes
This is not JJ
Duhh it’s two brothers talking hoops. Tap in and learn something goofy
Cause jj has a job other than podcasting. Maybe you should get a job instead of complaing
The Dunkers Spot is its own podcast on JJs channel. JJ's pod is called Old Man and the Three.
The great thing is you can watch both, or one, or none. Versatility is a gift.
