Ep. 6: Are Mega-Trades Good for the NBA
Manage episode 282755895 series 2846022
In this episode, Nolan and Riley break down things Things They Like, including Riley's Tyrese Haliburton playergasm, the defense of Myles Turner, and the fun level of Tacko Fall and Lu Dort, as well as Things They Don't Like, such as the Pelicans lackluster play, Giannis' god-awful shooting, and the snakebit Jusuf Nurkic (4:40). Then, the co-hosts get to the big questions of the podcast: should teams engage in Mega trades like the Anthony Davis, Paul George, or James Harden 2.0 trades? Is it worth it for small market or large market teams? Is the risk worth a shot at a title? But more importantly: are mega-trades good for the success of the NBA? The guys have a really good conversation about whether the NBA will end up better off because of these deals, or if they are a symptom of NBA Twitter hijacking the story the story the league is trying to tell.
