In this episode we talk about how each matchup has gone so far in the 2018 NBA Playoffs. Some haven't wrapped up yet, but we break them down still, and go over our predictions. Quick note: at the time of this recording, the OKC/Utah series was at 3-2 in favor of Utah, but we mistakenly identified it as OKC leading the series 3-2. Randazzo takes the main fault for this mistake.   Special thanks to Marco Randazzo for being our resident music-genius.

In this episode, we break down the Phoenix Suns: their history, best players, and best teams!  Phoenix Suns History: expansion team in '68 '76 Finals trip Kevin Johnson Era Charles Barkley Era '93 Finals trip (J)Ason Kidd Era Steve Nash (+Amare + D'antoni) Era Current / Devin Booker Era   Fun (or not-fun) facts for the Suns: Two trips to the Finals Part of the only two 3OT games in Finals history Never won a ship. Charles Barkley -- the original ring-hunter Suns originally drafted Nash, but traded him for Jason Kidd. The Suns are currently the only professional sports team with the location part of their name being "Phoenix." Nash was 30 when traded back to Phx.
