On this episode of Fanning the Flames, special guest (two-time Grammy Award-winning artist and friend of the show) Nate Ruess (@nateruessmusic) joins us to preview the upcoming NBA Playoffs.
You may know Nate as the lead singer of The Format and fun., but he’s also a huge basketball junkie who grew up a Phoenix Suns fan but became disenchanted with the team since the start of the Robert Sarver era. Thus bringing a different point of view to the Podcast of Optimism.
So, without further ado, tune in and listen as we:
- Pick every matchup in the Western Conference;
- Pick who we each think will come out of the East;
- Pick our NBA Champion (spoiler alert: there’s a consensus); and
- Discuss where the Suns will fall in the regular season awards.
