Full ‘Real Ones’ NBA Playoff Preview! Who Has the Most to Gain From Playoff Success?

The NBA playoffs will begin Saturday after Friday’s play-in games wrap up. Logan, Howard, and Raja give their thoughts and predictions for what will happen in the opening round. What does Nikola Jokic have to do to overcome a scorching hot Clippers team to avoid a first-round exit (2:46)? Are the Lakers true title contenders? Can Anthony Edwards take over the series and stop LeBron and Luka (19:12)? Will Steph and Jimmy be able to stifle a young and hungry Rockets team without home-court advantage (42:38)? The guys then shift their focus to the East. Can the Bucks win the series without Dame, and could Detroit possibly upset the Knicks (46:02)? Plus, as always, the mailbag!
