In this episode of Hot Take, we talk about the NBA Playoffs and the series in both conferences in full detail, as well as Free Agency buzz and the Team USA roster. To top it all off, we talk about the players we'd take in do-or-die situations. Enjoy!

With no NBA games on this Monday evening, we thought it would be fun to hop on a call and record an episode for you guys! Not only for that reason, but also because our very own cast member Nat was able to go to the Barclays Center and witness Game 7 live in an experience that he talks about exclusively on this episode! We also have to bring up the other remaining series including the Sixers, Jazz, Clippers, and Suns given how Devin Booker is performing and rightfully drawing comparisons to Kobe Bryant. A lot more on the way in terms of content and updates so stay tuned!
