Nikola Jokic goes down with a knee injury — and suddenly the volume spikes to kill the NBA's 65-game minimum for MVP and All-NBA eligibility. Coincidence? Or the latest example of the league (and its loudest voices) trying to rewrite the definition of greatness in real time?In the first On The Ball episode of 2026, Ric Bucher explains why the 65-game rule shouldn't be rescinded just because a superstar might miss out. Awards aren't about who we think should win based on peak moments, reputation, or “what he'd do if healthy.” They're about who actually delivered over a full season — and availability has always been part of the job.Ric revisits why the rule was created (hello, load management), why voters needed a clear benchmark, and why removing it would encourage exactly what fans hate: rewarding partial seasons while pretending it's the same as dominance over 82 games. He also calls out the shifting standards in NBA media, the growing subjectivity of awards voting, and the obsession with making everything “perfect” — even when perfection creates new injustices.Plus: Ric makes the case that we should be expanding eligibility rules, creating one to deem who is eligible to be an All-Star.Timestamps 00:00 — Intro: “Cooking with gas” / welcome to On The Ball 00:31 — Ric's platforms + book tease: the value of being coachable 01:32 — First pod of 2026: thank you + what's changing the show today 02:03 — The new flashpoint: NBA's 65-game rule + Jokic injury fallout 02:55 — Jokic vs SGA: how the MVP race shifts 03:16 — Why Ric disagrees with eliminating the rule 04:12 — Why the NBA instituted 65 games: load management + voter clarity 05:07 — The voting problem: who has ballots now (and why it matters) 06:35 — Why 65 games is “etched in stone” 07:23 — The old standard: playing 82 used to be the flex 08:03 — “Perfect” officiating vs reality: the replay obsession analogy 09:20 — The hard truth: injustice happens — that's sports (and life) 10:08 — Injuries, modern training, and why the real issue isn't awards 11:07 — Why changing awards rules dodges the real problem 12:32 — Supermax + health: should durability matter? 14:02 — Awards aren't for “who we think”: they're for who proved it 14:40 — The Bill Walton precedent: MVP with 58 games (and the controversy) 16:45 — The fear: rewarding stars for half-seasons 17:26 — Standards eroding: media, mentorship, and the “old head” dilemma 20:28 — Social media pedestal culture + rule changes for entertainment 21:25 — Why removing 65 games diminishes awards 22:12 — Ric's counter: eligibility rules for All-Star voting instead 22:52 — LeBron + All-Star weekend: honor him, don't gift him a spot 25:05 — Emotional policy-making is bad policy 25:47 — What's next: boosting competition, addressing tanking 26:54 — Outro#NBA #NikolaJokic #MVP #AllNBA #LoadManagement #NBAMedia #OnTheBall #RicBucher #BasketballPodcast #UnitedWeCastSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/bucher-and-friends.

Rob and Kelvin argue over whether college basketball coaches like John Calipari are being hypocrites for voicing their displeasure over professional (non-NBA) players coming back to play in college, and tell us why they have no problem with Nikola Jokic potentially being excluded from MVP and All-NBA consideration if he doesn’t meet the league’s 65-game minimum threshold.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Rob and Kelvin debate whether it’s fair to say that Matthew Stafford cost himself the NFL MVP award with his ugly 3-interception performance on Monday Night Football, and explain why it would behoove the New York Giants to look into taking Jaxson Dart’s replacement at the top of the upcoming NFL Draft. Plus, NBA champion and FOX Sports Radio NBA analyst Antonio Daniels swings by to discuss LeBron James potentially be left out of the upcoming NBA All-Star Game, whether Nikola Jokic should be excluded from MVP and All-NBA consideration if he doesn’t meet the league’s 65-game minimum threshold, if the Detroit Pistons are legitimate contenders coming out of the Eastern Conference, and much more!

Nikola Jokic suffered a knee injury and will miss a month, virtually assuring he will be ineligible for an All-NBA team or any end of season awards. Will this be the opportunity for the league to quickly reverse the "65 game rule," which has arguably provided very little benefit?On Season 12, Episode 10 of Fastbreak Breakfast, Keith and Dave discuss the issue, talk about the various tiers of good teams, laugh at the anti-tanking proposals, and attempt to rank some of the least ethical scorers in the NBA.Plus a bunch of other stuff.Support the show at Patreon.com/FastbreakBreakfastGet 20% off a Stathead annual subscription with code FBBFTry Underdog Fantasy and use code FBBF to get a free pick, plus a deposit match up to $1000: play.underdogfantasy.com/p-fastbreak-breakfast.Use promo code FASTBREABREAK at SeatGeek for $20 off your first ticket purchaseCheck out the merchandise at teepublic.com/stores/fastbreak-breakfast

Jaylen Brown says this season is his favorite so far, and it makes sense after the Celtics have surpassed everyone's expectations while he puts up All-NBA numbers. The Bruins are on a four game skid, what can they do to turn things around? What should the B's do at the trade deadline?
Brian offers up some final thoughts on the Pats-Bills game, including the Pats offense versus man coverage and why the defense had so much trouble stopping Josh Allen and James Cook (0:45). Then, he chats with CLNS Media's Bobby Manning about a couple of tough recent losses from the C's, Jaylen Brown's All-NBA-caliber play, the Celtics' streaky 3-point shooting, and more (24:40). Brian ends with a couple of listener calls before he and Jamie talk about a disappointing Red Sox offseason so far (1:08:15). We want to hear from you!

Pacers — 0:13What explains the divergence between the Boston Celtics and the Indiana Pacers despite their seemingly comparable losses in talent?Did the Pacers truly “miss” on Ryan Nembhard given their existing guard depth with Tyrese Haliburton, Andrew Nembhard, and T.J.

I hosted a Twitter Space with Knicks fans after the Knicks smoked the Raptors, and in this episode I break down the win and everything we saw on both ends. My Player of the Game was Mikal Bridges, who continues his All-NBA–level defensive resurgence under Mike Brown. He, along with the help defense, locked up Ingram, holding him to his first field goal late in the second quarter. Ingram finished 4/11 with a minus-22.Deuce came out on fire with four early threes, finishing with 14 points, 5 rebounds, 2 steals, and a plus-18 on 43.3 percent from deep. Mitch dominated inside with 15 rebounds, including 7 offensive, and a plus-17. Josh Hart was everywhere again with 20 points, 4 threes, 3 steals, and a plus-24.The Knicks hit 16 threes at 36 percent while the Raptors went 9 of 17 from the line at 53 percent.I'm State, and this audio is straight from the Twitter Space with live reactions from Knicks fans.

The Pacers are officially in scramble mode after falling to 0–3 with losses in Memphis and Minnesota. While Pascal Siakam continues to play at an All-NBA level and Bennedict Mathurin flashed the leap everyone hoped for before his toe injury, the story of the season so far has been injuries — and the “next man up” mantra is getting stretched to its limit. Brad and Ryan break down Siakam's brilliance, the continued hot shooting from Aaron Nesmith, and the frustrating struggles of Obi Toppin and Jarace Walker (a combined 7-for-35 from deep). Plus, they go glass-half-empty and glass-half-full on the center-by-committee experiment, and what the Pacers need to do to steady the ship before things start to spiral.
