0:00 ... Show open ... Ross introduces panel and dedicates show #223 to Jaren Jackson Jr, the 2023 Defensive Player of the Year. 1:17 ... Dave's former team, the Clippers have played well the past month but still became sellers at the deadline ... what was their plan? 2:55 ... The Memphis Grizzlies sent Jaren Jackson Jr to the Utah Jazz in a curious move.  Is there any sense to this move and some other recent moves like trading Dillon Brooks and Desmond Bane? 6:26 ... Dave worked with Danny Ainge in Boston where he pulled off a trade for Ray Allen that helped the Celtics acquire Kevin Garnett and win a title.  Can he pull off a similar trick in Utah? 8:52 ... Utah basically tanked a winnable game last weekend against Orlando ... was it a bad look for the league that needs to be addressed? 10:55 ... Will Jazz coach Will Hardy start feeling the pressure next year with a better group of players? 11:45 ... The Washington Wizards seem to be moving away from their young players by acquiring veterans like Trae Young, Anthony Davis, D'Angelo Russell, and some others.  Will it stifle the progress their young guys were making? 14:34 ... The Wizards seem like a rudderless ship but Dave feels their new GM Michael Winger is smart and there may be subsequent steps involving the guys they acquired. 15:54 ... What about the Celtics trading Anfrenee Simons and getting back Nik Vucevich?  Dave loves the deal for Boston.  Dave also feels like Brad Stevens has done amazing work in making smart moves while keeping the team in good financial shape. 18:27 ... Payton Pritchard is back to his 6th man role with the departure of Simons.  Dave loves this role for him because Pritchard proved he could start in the league and he'll have lots of freedom on the second unit. 20:06 ... Jonathan Kuminga was traded from Golden State to Atlanta with Kristaps Porzingis going to the Warriors ... how does this affect their playoff chances? 21:30 ... How does Kuminga fit in in Atlanta? 23:22 ... What does Giannis Antetokounmpo's future look like?  Is he staying in Milwaukee for the long haul? 24:43 ... Expect to see Giannis in Milwaukee at the start of next season.  Giannis is very loyal.  Dave compares him to what Kevin Garnett went through in Minnesota. 26:09 ... Orlando was quiet at the trade deadline.  They're a well coached team with a good roster but they should be better. 27:16 ... Fun topics to cloe the show... how serious are the Philadelphia 76ers as contenders in the east? 28:27 ... The Charlotte Hornets have been on fire ... do they have a chance to make the postseason? 29:48 ... Dave feels Sacramento is the opposite of the Hornets ... they haven't been to the Finals since 1951 and the owner keeps firing good coaches.  No reason for excitement in SacTown. 32:13 ... The Bulls have made a bunch of trades and didn't get any first round picks while some of their guys made contributions elsewhere.  They never seem to have a breakout season but it's hard to see what direction they're moving in. 33:59 ... Injuries have been a problem across the league and it's making some good players ineligible for postseason awards due to the 65 game rule.  Can anything be done? 36:25 ... Is there anything about the style of play that is causing injuries to occur more frequently?  Dave cites some examples of random injuries 38:46 ... LeBron James needs to play every game the rest of the way since he would need to do that to reach 65 games played.  If he does it, is that good for the team?  Dave transitions into a fun story about how he once played just 5 seconds in a game, and went into that game at the 47:55 mark. 43:49 ... Can the Spurs be a serious contender?  Dave feels like they can and also ticks off some other teams he feels can win it all. 46:49 ... Ross wraps things up and closes out the show.   TRT 47:21                   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
