    On today's Kevin O'Connor show, we've got a trade-deadline special! Kevin O'Connor is joined by Tom Haberstroh to dissect any and all movement in the league before the 3 PM ET buzzer, going through the biggest winners and losers in what may be the weirdest trade deadline in NBA history.First, the pair discuss the Milwaukee Bucks' decision to retain Giannis Antetokounmpo, and what that means for the landscape of the NBA–and for the future outlook of the Golden State Warriors, especially after the anticlimactic end of the Jonathan Kuminga saga. Were the Warriors the biggest losers of the trade deadline? Will another team arise in the summer to win the Antetokounmpo sweepstakes?Next, they discuss the James Harden trade to the Cleveland Cavaliers, and if this move can bring the city of Cleveland to the Finals once again.Then, they muse on what exactly made this deadline so weird: multiple All-Stars being traded to bad NBA teams. They ask: why are bad teams trading for good players? Why are the Utah Jazz putting their top-8 protected first round pick in jeopardy? Why such a paltry return for Anthony Davis, who was traded for Luka Doncic just last year?Plus, they cover all the bases with the more local trades made, from the Chicago Bulls picking up 9 second round picks to the Boston Celtics acquiring their long-coveted big man in Nikola Vucevic. Plus more questions: why didn't the Sacramento Kings trade for Ja Morant? Why did the Philadelphia 76ers let go of Jared McCain?

    Everyone says sports coverage is too negative — and the “fix” was supposed to be ex-players taking over the microphone. So why does it feel like the takes are hotter, harsher, and sloppier than ever?In this episode, Ric digs into the hypocrisy of modern sports debate culture: endless era wars, manufactured arguments that can't be settled, and the engagement-driven “hamster wheel” that turns players into pundits… and pundits into flamethrowers.Ric spotlights recent examples — including Draymond Green's baffling defense of Bronny James — and explains why “I played” isn't automatically a media credential. Then he shifts to the NBA's newest pressure cooker: Cooper Flagg in Dallas, why the criticism is missing the point, and what the Mavericks' post-Luka Dončić reality says about leadership, context, and expectations.Plus: Ric's trade deadline observations, including what Chicago's moves signal, why Mike Conley could boomerang back to Minnesota, and why Boston's move for Nikola Vučević is the kind of “he killed us, so get him” logic teams swear they don't use… until they do.Time Stamps0:00 “We're cooking with gas” — welcome to On The Ball0:39 Ric's third book: Coachability (pre-order info coming)1:30 “There's only one place you hear me” — why this pod is different1:44 The myth: players hate “negative media”… so ex-players should fix it2:42 The reality: negativity is worse than ever (era wars, cheap shots)4:10 Why era debates are a trap (and a ratings machine)4:48 Example #1: Draymond Green, Bronny James, and basic facts6:45 “Only players can talk hoops”?
