Welcome to Haters Drinking Haterade, where we bring you the hot takes and opinions around the NBA that no one asked for, with nothing but hate in our hearts. We kick this podcast series off with a predictably huge NBA rumor about Russell Westbrook and his falling out with the Houston Rockets. We look at some potential Westbrook landing spots while indulging in some casual Knicks slander. The big topic of this week is the 2020 NBA Draft (14:50) which has got Sidd watching too many Youtube videos of prospects, in the hope that he somehow figures out who the top 3 players of the draft are. Find out more about our thoughts on Lamelo Ball, James Wiseman, Anthony Edwards, and some of our names to watch out for this week!
