0:00 ... Ross hello, welcome, and introduces the panel 0:32 ... Show #260 is dedicated to Hall of Famer Michael Cooper who was drafted with the #60 overall pick in the 1978 NBA Draft. 1:24 ... LeBron James is now a member of the 76ers and World B feels the upcoming season will feature a wide open and competitive eastern conference.   There are 11 legit playoff contenders for just 8 spots. 3:44 ... Bruce feels like LeBron made the move to Philly in a desperate attempt to win 2 more rings and tie Michael Jordan with 6 championships and convince people that HE, not MJ is the GOAT.   Bruce feels that Sixers games will be "Must Watch" TV. 5:24 ... Depth and health could be issues for Philly.  Ross also feels that many more coaches will be on the hot seat with so many solid teams competing for just 8 playoff spots. 6:22 ... Bruce feels that the Jalen Duren contract impasse in Detroit could have a lingering effect that might affect the morale of the team if Duren's teammates feel he is being mistreated by Pistons management. 7:22 ... What's the deal with the Orlando Magic?  Is their window closed as far as being elite in the east?  They still have talent, but their offense is still sub-standard.  Bruce feels that the team will be in the mix for the Play In tournament but he does not have a great feeling about this team. 12:31 ... Jalen Brown is no longer a Celtic, so who is going to step up?  From a leadership standpoint, it has to be Jayson Tatum, but others like Derrick White, Hugo Gonzalez, and Baylor Scheierman need to all have solid seasons for Boston to challenge for the top 6 in the east. 14:43 ... World B agrees with Bruce that Derrick White needs to step up. 15:57 ... Ross asks Bruce if Tatum is capable of being a "fiery" leader and Bruce doesn't really know if Jayson is capable of adjusting his personality and mindset from his "too cool" exterior to someone who shows more emotion. 17:45 ... Atlanta has added Lu Dort and Ross wonders if Dort can bring the type of toughness to the Hawks that a guy like Dillon Brooks brought to the Suns?   World B loves Dort's perimeter defense and his presence gives the Hawks much better depth.  World B also feels Jalen Johnson has to continue his progress for the Hawks to excel.  Bruce thinks Dort is exactly the type of gritty veteran Atlanta needs and their fans will love.  Ross loves the move and thinks Dort's physicality will really improve the Hawks' defense. 22:17 ... The Portland Trailblazers have a new owner (Tom Dundon) and he has made some really unsettling moves since taking over the franchise.  There are rumors that the Blazers, who are battling with local Portland politicians over arena funding and other financial issues could end up leaving the city.   That would be devastating to the city of Portland and would give the city a real black eye. 24:14 ... Ross is very angry about the way that Dundon has treated their broadcasters like Kevin Calabro and Tom Haberstroh because he watched a lot of Blazers games and really enjoyed their telecasts. 25:32 ... World B feels Dundon has been an embarassment and cites the bad contract he gave new head coach Micah Nori as a really poor way to treat their new coach. 27:37 ... Bruce feels for the Portland fans, who are among the best in the NBA and since the Blazers are Portland's only major league team, their fans would be devastated if the team flatlines and eventually leaves town. 29:05 ... If you were a fan, would you rather be a Warriors or Clippers fan?  Bruce would rather be a 'Dubs fan but Ross and World B would rather be Clippers fans.  Everyone explains why they feel the way they do.  LA owner Steve Ballmer is the main reason that Ross and World B prefer the Clippers. 33:09 ... Will DeAaron Fox be on the Spurs the entire season?  Bruce feels he will because of his contract, which calls for him to be paid more than $222 million over the next 4 seasons.  It's such a bad contract that it's hard to see any team taking it on. 37:04 ... It's time for the always enjoyable "Card Challenge" segment where Ross picks random cards and asks Bruce and World B to react to the players spontaneously to prove their knowledge.  Jalen Duren of the Pistons is first for World B. 38:19 ... Next up is Klay Thompson of the Mavericks for Bruce 39:25 ... Kyrie Irving of Dallas is next for World B. 40:20 ... Tyler Herro for Bruce 40:57 ... Carmelo Anthony for World B. 42:29 ... Bruce Bowen for Bruce .... they'll be together on Wednesday at the Basketball Hall of Fame for a "HoopHall hangout" session with the fans. 44:17 ... Ross wraps the show and says goodbye TRT 44:30                 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Are the Chicago Bulls done making moves, or is Bryson Graham keeping one chair open for a reason?On today's Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down why the Bulls may enter the regular season with their 15th full-time roster spot open. After days of smoke around Bennedict Mathurin, including reported interest from Chicago and praise from the Bulls' coaching staff, local reporting has suggested that the interest may be overstated. That does not completely kill the possibility, but it does make the Bulls' bigger priority clear: flexibility.Haize explains why keeping the final roster spot open may line up with Bryson Graham's front-office philosophy. Instead of rushing into a restricted free-agent sign-and-trade or adding a veteran just to fill the bench, Chicago could preserve flexibility to help facilitate trades, take on salary, or collect future draft capital if the right opportunity appears.Then the conversation gets bigger: Should the Bulls be watching the Orlando Magic and a potential second-apron crunch involving Paolo Banchero? If Orlando ever reaches a point where Banchero becomes available, should Chicago be aggressive even if the fit with Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson is imperfect?Plus, Haize looks ahead to 2027 free agency and why the 2026–27 season may be an evaluation year that determines whether the Bulls eventually pursue a player like Mathurin, Peyton Watson, or Jalen Duren.

Mike thinks Jalen Duren is delusional for what he is still asking for from the Pistons/other teams. Also, the guys talk about some pressing Big Ten Media Day questions, react to the Tigers blowing another big lead, and much more.

Como falamos no texto do episódio passado, o LeBron James acabou definindo sua nova casa: O Philadelphia 76ers. O que parece como uma adição interessante para um time que buscava ser um contender de verdade, parece estar lentamente se tornando mais um time do LeBron apenas. Mas claro, antes comentamos do convite ao Vasco para permanecer na NBB e vontade do Bahia em comprar uma franquia da NBB para já começar atras de títulos. Mas os valores não são tão simples, claro. E claro, falamos dos dois primeiros jogos das finais da LBF em São Luis. E não teve muita chance pro Unimed Campinas não. O Sampaio controlou bem os dois jogos, tomou poucos sustos e vem para Campinas precisando só de uma vitória para fechar a séria, ganhar seu tetra campeonato. Temos de louvar o bom trabalho feito no Maranhão, com esta já são 5 finais consecutivas em um polo não muito grande para o basquete, com viagens longas, mas mantendo um trabalho e uma base sensacionais todas as temporadas. É para se aplaudir mesmo. Falamos da semana da WNBA que teve vitória do Chicago Sky com mais uma ótima apresentação da Kamilla. Mas a semana da W não foi tão agitada porque no final de semana tivemos o All Star game, como sempre, com problemas. Parece que a carte de Hogwarts para o torneio de três pontos não chegou para as principais arremessadoras da liga. E pouco a pouco vai se criando um clima terrível para a comissária. Na NBA, o 76ers fechou com o LeBron no fim da semana passada, e nesta já trouxe também o Westbrook. O Martan lembrou bem que o Russ já não é tão queridinho do Lebron, mas pode ser que eles tenham feito as pazes. Só que com isso, vai parecendo que o Phila, que queria ser contender sério, vai é precisar de umas três ou quatro bolas em quadra para esse time ficar feliz. Enquanto isso, as outras novelas são tão sem graça que a gente quase esquece: Duren e Kuminga ainda não acertaram novos contratos. E o detalhe, ambos são agenciados pelo mesmo cara. Esse ai sabe como inflar egos além da realidade. Teve isso e muito mais, então não perca tempo, aperte o play e vem com a gente!

The Chicago Bulls rumor mill is heating up — and now Bennedict Mathurin is reportedly a name to watch.Haize breaks down the latest report that Chicago has emerged as another known suitor alongside New Orleans for Clippers restricted free agent Bennedict Mathurin. Mathurin is officially on the 2026 restricted free-agent list after the Clippers issued him a qualifying offer, and Marc Stein previously reported New Orleans plus a second suitor had shown interest.Could Mathurin make sense for the Bulls? Haize looks at the fit, the cost, the restricted free agency complications, and whether Chicago should chase another young scoring wing now or preserve flexibility for the bigger 2027 picture.Then, the show turns to Jalen Duren vs Peyton Watson as possible 2027 Bulls targets. Duren is the bigger star swing, but Watson is the cleaner roster fit beside Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson and Nic Claxton. The current verdict: Watson fits the Bulls better as currently constructed, while Duren would require a bigger frontcourt reset.Plus, Haize reacts to Jalen Smith trade buzz after reported Lakers interest, and why Smith's shooting, expiring contract, and frontcourt versatility could make him one of Chicago's better trade chips.And finally, the Chicago Bulls 2026-27 preseason schedule is out — headlined by a must-watch Caleb Wilson vs Cameron Boozer rematch when the Bulls face Memphis.

Have you ever touched a squirrel? Lion that will exceed expectations.

What is Duren's value?

Will Duren be mad?

LeBron James v Sixers: prečo si vybral Philadelphiu ako svoj (pravdepodobne) posledný tím, ako sedí vedľa Maxeyho, Browna a Embiida a či majú reálnu šancu na titul v nabitom Východe. Čo by mali spraviť Warriors, ako má OKC reagovať na Spurs a Wembyho, či Denver ešte niečo pridá a aký trh majú DeRozan, Kuminga či Duren. Dark horse tímy na Východe aj Západe, šanca Knicks na obhajobu titulu, all‑time päťka a šialený fakt, že Bulls ’98 by boli v dnešnom second aprone úplne mimo pravidiel.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mike and Rico gave listeners carte blanche in the final hour, hearing out callers and texters about their ongoing discussion over whether they think enough is enough and whether the Tigers need to sell at the deadline. They made sure to include a few comments on Marc Stein's report about Jalen Duren as well.

Mike and Rico opened the third hour with their 2nd "Can We Say That?" of the day. Then, they took a few more of your Tigers calls before addressing a report from NBA reporter Marc Stein about Jalen Duren potentially taking the qualifying offer from the Pistons, which would make him an unrestricted free agent after next season.

On this episode of 3 Championship Drive, Lance Caporossi breaks down the latest developments surrounding Jalen Duren's contract negotiations with the Detroit Pistons and examines what a fair extension could look like for the young center.Lance reacts to Fred Katz's recent The Athletic article, which polled 13 NBA executives on Duren's market value, and compares their projected contract figures to what Pistons fans have been debating all offseason.Should Jalen Duren bet on himself by signing the qualifying offer, or would a shorter-term extension with Detroit be the smarter financial and basketball decision? Lance weighs the risks and rewards of each path before discussing what Duren would have to accomplish on the court to justify a five-year, $287 million maximum contract in the future.If you're looking for Detroit Pistons news, Jalen Duren contract analysis, NBA salary discussion, Cade Cunningham updates, Pistons roster building, and offseason coverage, this episode of 3 Championship Drive is for you.If you enjoyed this episode, make sure to follow 3 Championship Drive on Spotify and subscribe on YouTube for daily Detroit Pistons coverage.

In the wake of LeBron signing with the 76ers, Mike and Brendan continue to be cranky about public contract squabbling of Tarik Skubal and Jalen Duren. While Skubal seems to put his foot in his mouth routinely, Duren simply seems to be out of touch with how the rest of the NBA values his services. His pursuit of a max contract extension from the Pistons is a non-starter for Valenti.

Mike and Brendan react to new reporting on Jalen Duren's contract demands. Apparently the young center wants a max deal of five years and $287 million. The guys are unimpressed, as they think Duren has not earned that type of deal, and Duren is quickly entering Tarik Skubal terriroty in terms of the seemingly unending uncertainty about his future. Which player are you more annoyed by at this point?

Jalen Duren is reportedly seeking $57 million per year from the Pistons, but Mike says he wouldn't even extend the four-year veteran for $40 million per year. Valenti is unswayed by Duren's age and All-NBA accolades and says Duren could easily be replaced.

The guys bring you a new episode with Robbie Bettelon as he takes the reigns as a his first episode as co-host with Wes. They discuss the end of Summer League and give their final thoughts on Ebuka Okorie and Chaz Lanier. There aren't many updates surrounding Jalen Duren's contract saga, but they give their thoughts on why Pistons fans shouldn't fear Duren taking the qualifying offer. They end the podcast with a game of Guess the Rotation as they predict the depth chart for next season.We've got you covered for all this and more in this week's episode!

On this episode of the Palace of Pistons Podcast, Mike Anguilano and Aaron Johnson break down the latest developments in the Jalen Duren contract negotiations, including reports that the standoff could stretch into late August and the possibility that Duren ultimately plays on the qualifying offer. The guys discuss what that outcome would mean for both Duren and the Pistons, the leverage each side holds, and how the situation could impact Detroit's long-term plans. They also shift their attention to the Pistons' projected starting lineup, with a deep dive into the battle for the starting shooting guard spot. Is Duncan Robinson's shooting enough to earn the nod? Does Isaiah Joe provide the ideal fit? Or could Daniss Jenkins emerge as the surprise winner? Mike and Aaron evaluate the strengths, weaknesses, and lineup combinations for each candidate while projecting how Detroit's opening-night rotation could take shape.

Contract talks between Duren and the Pistons have reportedly reached a standstill

On this episode of 3 Championship Drive, Lance Caporossi reacts to Marc Stein's report that the Detroit Pistons have "brushed aside" every sign-and-trade offer involving Jalen Duren. What does that reveal about Trajan Langdon's vision for the franchise? Is it a vote of confidence in Duren, or does it raise questions about whether the Pistons are being aggressive enough to build a true Eastern Conference contender? Lance also breaks down Ramona Shelburne's report that contract negotiations between the Pistons and Jalen Duren have reached a standstill and could stretch deep into August. Should Duren bet on himself by signing the qualifying offer, or would a shorter-term contract be the smarter financial move? Lance explores the risks, rewards, and what each side's negotiating strategy says about the future of the organization. Topics include:Marc Stein's report on Detroit rejecting Jalen Duren sign-and-trade offersIs Trajan Langdon serious about building a championship contender?Why the Pistons may have refused every offerRamona Shelburne's latest update on Duren's contract negotiationsShould Jalen Duren sign the qualifying offer?The smartest contract structure for both Duren and the PistonsWho has the leverage in these negotiations?What this means for Detroit's futureIf you enjoy Detroit Pistons analysis, roster building, salary cap discussions, and honest NBA conversations, be sure to like, subscribe, and follow 3 Championship Drive for new episodes covering everything Pistons basketball.If you enjoyed this episode, make sure to follow 3 Championship Drive on Spotify and subscribe on YouTube for daily Detroit Pistons coverage.

Mike and Rico welcome the people into their main third hour topic.

Mike and Rico spent a segment with their thoughts on comments from both MLB players and Commissioner Rob Manfred about the implementation of a salary cap/floor in the next CBA.

The guys react to two separate reports regarding the future of Jalen Duren on the Pistons + rumors linking KD to Detroit.

It's been the wildest week of the NBA offseason, and Robert Horry, Rob Jenners, and B-Dog Brandon Harper have a lot to get through. The show kicks off with an argument nobody asked for — Rob's theory that every undersized, unathletic kid in America should just go play soccer — before the guys dig into the trade that broke Twitch: Jaylen Brown to the 76ers for Paul George and draft compensation.   They break down whether Boston's “JB and JT can't win a title together” reasoning holds up, debate how fast (or slow) Philly fans will actually embrace a guy who spent a decade calling them the enemy, and dig into what Paul George's fit looks like next to a Jayson Tatum-led Celtics squad.   From there it's a full lap around the Lakers, who added Luka Dončić, AR, and Walker Kessler to a roster that's got the internet cracking jokes about the “Mayo Mob” and “Live, Laugh, Lakers.” Horry and Harper get into the actual basketball case for the moves, what the Kessler trade cost L.A. in draft capital, and why Rui Hachimura bolted for the Clippers on a deal Horry thinks his agent should be fired over.   The back half covers the Wizards quietly stacking three former No. 1 picks, a Rich Paul clip that reignites the LeBron-to-Cleveland chatter, Donovan Mitchell's new max extension, and a run through free agency moves including Collin Sexton, Anfernee Simmons, and DeMar DeRozan hitting the open market. Pat McAfee gets Big Shout of the Week honors, and the guys close it out with a round of “History Repeating,” matching this year's NBA storylines to their 2018 twins.   00:00  Cold Open & Intro 01:30  Should American Kids Just Play Soccer? 09:30  Jaylen Brown Traded to the Sixers 12:00  Do Fans Really Forgive Former Rivals? 16:00  Will Philly Embrace Jaylen Brown? 19:00  Shams' Report: Were Tatum & Brown Really Done? 21:30  Paul George Heads to Boston 26:30  Tatum Becomes the Guy in Boston 28:30  Lakers' New Look Sparks TikTok Nicknames 31:00  Breaking Down the Walker Kessler Trade 35:00  Rui Hachimura Bolts for the Clippers 42:30  Wizards Land Three Former No. 1 Picks 44:00  Rich Paul's LeBron-to-Knicks Bombshell 46:30  Where Does LeBron Land?
