S.2 | EP.5: NBA Playoff Preview! | Can the LA Lakers make a finals run? | Can the Kings knock off the defending champs? | Miami and Boston in the first round?

The "Head Honcho" Sports Podcast With Jaylin Short

In this episode, I will be discussing the NBA Playoffs. There are a lot of great teams in the Western Conference, and it could go anyone's way this year. The Sacramento Kings have a tough assignment going against the defending champion Golden State Warriors. There will have to be a very efficient gameplan to knock them off, and Golden State has seen it all, so that will be very tough. The LA Lakers will most likely go against the Memphis Grizzlies in the first round, and those are two great teams. When healthy, the Lakers are one of the best teams in the league, so Memphis will have to execute well in order to beat them. Phoenix and the LA Clippers are matched up in the first round, and this is the most interesting series to watch for me. The level of bucket-getting and the offensive display in this series is going to be tremendous. The Miami Heat are most likely going to match up with the Boston Celtics, and that is a rematch of last years ECF. Miami was one shot away from a trip to the NBA Finals, and this season is going to test where they really are. Jimmy Butler usually turns it up a notch in the playoffs, so Boston might be in trouble. The Milwaukee Bucks will win the NBA Championship, I'm calling it right now. They are just so good defensively, and if Khris Middleton is healthy and ready to go, I don't see them losing to anyone.
