Welcome to the Drive & Dish NBA Podcast, hosted by Kevin Rafuse (@rafusetolose) & Justin Cousart (@JustinContheAir). We started back in 2014 as a way to discuss our favorite league like we would whenever we hung out outside of work. Two cities, and a couple of radio jobs later, here we are. We strive to give you the best in everything NBA both on and off the court on a weekly basis and keep it light and fun, the way basketball is supposed to be. Honestly, which league is more fun than the NBA right now? Our goal is to make you feel like you’re sitting on the couch, at the barbershop, or at a barstool with us. We cover the league year-round from opening night in October, all the way through the NBA Finals in June. If that’s not enough, we keep going in the summer for the NBA draft, NBA summer league & free agency. Segments include Who’s Ballin, Who’s Fallin, our NBA version of the stock market where we tell you what’s trending up, and what’s trending down each week. We’ve also got Hot Takes from Reddit, where we bring you the spiciest and most comical takes from NBA Reddit each week. You also will hear the best in NBA guests throughout the season and all summer long. Like we said earlier though, the show is all about fun, because if you’re not having fun, why do something right

Is the Heat on for the Heat?
Welcome back to another episode of The Drive & Dish NBA Podcast, hosted by Kevin Rafuse (@rafusetolose) & Justin Cousart (@JustinContheAir). Kevin is joined by Carlton Cabey (Carlton_KB) this week as they warm up with Carmelo Anthony officially retiring. The guys look back at Melo's Hall of Fame career and discuss their favorite Melo moments. After that Carlton gives us his level of panic for the Miami Heat after losing Games 4 and 5 of the ECF as the Celtics look to complete the first reverse sweep in NBA history. How has Miami gotten here as an 8 seed, and what needs to happen to avoid making the wrong sort of history? Plus Kevin argues that Joe Mazzulla has gotten a bit a raw deal overall from the media. Finally, the guys go out West and discuss the Denver Nuggets making their first NBA finals appearance ever. All things Jokic, Jamal Murray and why Denver should be the favorite regardless of who comes out of the East.

Customer Reviews
Great 🏀 Pod
I was looking for a hoops pod about 4 years years ago as I’d struggled to find one I liked for a while, I randomly found this and have been a listener ever since. Episodes are a nice length and mix in fun analysis from Justin and Kevin with a combination of humour, good insight and the occasional dose of Sixer homer chat. Pop culture and other sport chat/references comes in too which is a plus for me! Keep up the good work and here's hoping Simmons is finally traded soon!
All the best, Will in Sheffield, England.
