This week, I am joined on the podcast by Irvin Castellanos (@TwittIrv), who covers the Dallas Mavericks for WFAA ABC 8-Dallas. He is also the co-host of the Eat My Shorts: A Simpsons Podcast (@eatmyshortspod). So, this episode was mostly fun, and we both break down the 2021 NBA playoffs that start tonight, Tuesday, May 18, 2021. Unfortunately, bigger things are also going on around the world, so it was not all fun.

First, we get to the fun part of the podcast and we give our thoughts on the 2021 NBA Playoffs. We recorded this episode on Saturday, May 15, 2021, so some of the matchups were undecided at the time of this recording. However, we both discussed each conference. Also, we both picked our 2021 NBA MVP and made our other season hardware picks.

To end the podcast, we discussed the NBA’s 2020 Hall of Fame class, made our NBA Finals picks, and felt it was important to talk about Palestine. Lastly, this week’s Molotov MVP and Xicano History will be slightly different. I decided to combine both segments and honor Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving with this week's Molotov MVP. Before I honored Kyrie for lighting that cocktail and tossing it back at enemy lines, I play some news clips from this past week on Israel’s latest attack on the people of Palestine. Que Viva Palestina! Long Live Palestine! Justice for Palestine!
