Agu & Andre: Hoop Truthers

This week the Hoop Truthers do a quick recap of the First Round and lead into their predictions for Round 2. Unfortunately injuries have rocked at least one series in the second round, and we discuss their impact. Beyond that, listen to Dre smoke that Utah pack and more! Open your third eye and tap in

We're about midway through the First Round of the NBA Playoffs and we have seen a lot. We've had series that we thought would be sweeps be tied 2-2, and series we thought to be blockbusters start off 3-0 (lol Nets). The Hoop Truthers come through this week to discuss the First Round so far, the awards announced, and the coaching opening in Charlotte. 

Open your third eye and check it out!!

THE PLAYOFFS ARE HEEEEERE. Joining the Hoop Truthers this week is Fresh X and East Side Johnny of The Hoopers Pod. At the recording of the pod, most of the Game 1s of each First Round matchup have been played. We react to those games, as well as predict how each series will go. Open your third eye and TAP IN!

The NBA Playoffs are finally here!! The Hoop Truthers welcomed Jordan (@jaywop6 on Twitter) into the Circle of Trust to sip and debate a little. We go through DPOY, 6MOY, ROY and MVP. Did we choose your favorite? Threaten us on twitter if not! We wrap up with some discussion regarding this week's play-in games and the finally set playoff matchups. Open your third eye and hit play! 

The Hoop Truthers welcome a new member to the Circle of Trust this week in Pat Benson of Sports Illustrated's All Hawks! We discuss the Atlanta Hawks season and why it is not necessarily a disappointment despite making it to the ECF last season. We also talk about John Collins' perceived displeasure with his role, Onyeka Okomgwu's continued ascension, and more. Further in the pod we each provide our top 3 for Most Improved Player and Coach of the Year (and of course, our reasonings for each pick). Tune in to see if we snubbed your favorite player or are the best analysts you've ever listened to!
