Finally! Tara and Cassidy are joined one last time by Sasha Ashall and Jannelle Moore to declare a winner of the 2020 NBA Championship bracket. After a round for mascots and a round for uniforms, we focus on which teams have the coolest players and finally, we try to determine who would win in actual basketball games. Along the way we discuss who might be the coach of the Rockets next season, a surprising candidate for the coolest Laker on the team, and what is James Harden like off the court?

On our way to picking a winner we talk about how much we would love to watch a Damian Lillard vs LeBron James playoff series, who might be the most exciting matchup in the Eastern conference finals and how might the season actually play out?

After this episode we’ll be going on hiatus for a few months. Take care of each other and stay in touch by following us on Twitter @tcbbiggs and @cassidygemmet and @hoopsandtalks
