As the NBA Playoffs are set to resume following the players' strike, Pick & Pop NBA discusses their takeaways from the first round of the playoffs thus far. The analysis begins with the Jamal Murray versus Donovan Mitchell battles in the Nuggets-Jazz series (9:00), followed by the performances of Luka Doncic and his counterparts Kawhi Leonard and Paul George in the Mavericks-Clippers (25:07). The discussion then shifts to the Eastern Conference and a preview of the Raptors-Celtics matchup in the second round (38:57), before moving back to the West for the Rockets-Thunder series (50:57).
One week into the NBA Return, Kavi and Brevin discuss the early performances and playoff prospects of the Western Conference teams, from the race for the 8 and 9 seeds (12:15) to the NBA Finals (1:30:52). In between, the P&P founders explain their first (22:33) and second (1:08:03) round predictions, as well as give an update to their Battle of LA predictions from a previous podcast (1:26:51).
As the official NBA Return approaches, Brevin and Kavi make their way through their potential Eastern Conference playoff brackets and their increasingly fragile friendship. During an otherwise agreeable discussion about the final playoff seedings, Brevin calls Kavi out for not keeping up with the status of Victor Oladipo (10:42). Things get heated when the Pick & Pop founders disagree on the outcome of a certain potential first round matchup (30:00), and the two go on to break down their picks in the Eastern Conference semi-finals and finals (50:00).
