Back at it! We take a quick run around the league and commiserate on the current state of the Lakers and Celts. You don't want to miss this!

Back like we never left. We preview the upcoming NBA season. Stay until the end to hear Carl's best bet for the season - guarantee this one isn't being suggested on any other pod

We talk through the Lakers beating the Bucks and Clippers within 48 hours, the Kenny Atkinson firing, and play everyone's new favorite game 'is the slump real'

We talk through the MVP race with 20 games left in the season. Can we even find 10 legitimate candidates? And who should win the award - Giannis or Lebron?

Talking the biggest deals from the trade deadline-Russell to Wolves, Wiggins to Warriors-Capela to Atlanta, Covington to Houston-Morris to Clippers-Winslow to Memphis, Iggy/Crowder to Miami

We talked through starters and reserves for the All Star game in February. Can you guess who has Melo in consideration for a spot on the West squad?

With the idea for a Midseason Tournament back in the news we wanted to re-release the pod we did this past March with our ideas for a cup tournament. Funny listening back to our thoughts on the Celtics looking good and assuming the Warriors were a lock for the championship.
