In the second hour of the show, Tobin & Leroy talk about the Miami Heat playing great ball after their 120-119 win over the Los Angeles Clipper. Tobin is elated with the start and is waning to make whale noises after hearing that Memphis Grizzles start guard ja Morant has lost is joy for playing basketball. He is making a stink which Tobin loves and wonders can the Heat make a move for the guard or for Pelicans forward Zion Williamson who also isn't happy in New Orleans? They talk more about the Miami Dolphins who can be major players in this trade deadline. Should the Fins blow it all up like Tobin was or keep key young players and add to it like Leroy suggests? Finally, we play our favorite Tuesday game "Damage is Done.
With the Heat playing good basketball early in to the season can they make a move to get a star like Grizzlies guard Ja Morant or Pelicans forward Zion Williamson who aren't happy with their current situations and are making "stinks" to the media? Would a trade for one of these stars be enough to become a power int eh East?.
They say that basketball never stops, and that has been more evident than before in the early going of this NBA regular season, where he who fakes an injury and takes a couple weeks off might lose playing time forever. But Adam Murray and Andrew Riche, Place To Be Nation's NBA-Team, are in no mood to lose any minutes and are right back at it this week to provide all the knowledge of what we have learned (or think we have learned) in the first two weeks. Why are the Chicago Bulls and Philadelphia 76ers so good, and do some big names have to give up their minutes for the sake of team success? Which head coach gets fired first in the sprint for the pink slip between the Wizards' Brian Keefe and the Pelicans' Willie Green? Is Victor Wembenyama leaping ahead in the MVP race as the Spurs surge to first in the league in net rating? Riche and Adam also discuss the Magic's struggles, the Ja Morant situation turning toxic in Memphis, the free throw attempt boom in the league, and more! So suit up and take it out in episode 364 with the NBA-Team!

In this episode of Bleav in Celtics, we dive into the highs and lows of the past week for the Boston Celtics. After an encouraging three-game win streak—highlighted by impressive wins over the Cavs, Pelicans, and a tight showdown against the Sixers—the momentum came to a halt with a tough loss to the Houston Rockets. We unpack what went wrong: lack of rebounding, defensive breakdowns, and how the Rockets lit it up from deep while Boston struggled to find offensive rhythm. We also spotlight standout performances from Baylor Scheierman and discuss Jaylen Brown's reduced fourth quarter minutes, plus the ongoing issues with Boston's frontcourt rotation. Then we look ahead to tonight's matchup against the Utah Jazz—a game Boston should win if they lock in defensively and bounce back from recent mistakes. Can Jaylen Brown, Simons, and Schierman lead the charge? Will the Celtics finally dominate the glass and get to the free throw line? Let's talk about it. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
