Playoff Predictions, MVP, and COTY Awards

About this episode

The hosts break down the NBA playoff picture, debate MVP candidates, and make predictions for each round.

This week on Nothing but Neta , El Compa Dave and the One and Only Jesus break down the entire NBA playoff picture from top to bottom. We debate MVP (Jokic vs. SGA), show love to Joe Mazzulla in the Coach of the Year convo, and then go full bracket mode with predictions for every round. The East gets heated—Dave is riding with the Pistons, Jesus is sticking with the Celtics—but we somehow both land on the Thunder winning it all. Hot takes, disagreements, and a lot of neta. Tap in.
