from Drive and Dish NBA Podcast Hosted by Justin Cousart
On this episode of The Drive & Dish NBA Podcast, hosted by Justin Cousart (@JustinContheAir) and Kevin Rafuse (@rafusetolose), the guys start the showing by discussing Gregg Popovich stepping down as Spurs head coach and becoming president of basketball operations. A look back at Pop's tenure, initial reactions to Mitch Johnson as the new Spurs coach and why this is a big offseason for San Antonio. Next, the guys preview a pair of first-round game 7's. What to expect from the Nuggets/Clippers dog fight and how the Rockets were able to claw back from 3-1. Can they complete the job at home? The guys also look ahead to how the winner of those respective games will fare against the Thunder and Timberwolves. Next, a trip out East to discuss the second round. The Cavs and Pacers face off in a Central Division showdown. How can the Cavs slow down Hali and do the Pacers have enough firepower to keep up? Then a look at Celtics and Knicks and Kevin explains why he believes this will be a short series. A quick nod to Dyson Daniels winning Most Improved Player of the Year and Stephon Castle winning Rookie of the Year, before a dive into the Doom Meter. Which NBA teams should feel the worst about being eliminated already? Do the Bucks have any hope of keeping this together without trading Giannis? Should the Grizz trade Ja? Does Pat Riley have any magic left? Listen to the show wherever you get your podcasts and watch the show on YouTube!
