This week on the TABLE TALK interview podcast, Jeff sat down with John Stolnis from the Hittin' Season podcast and TheGoodPhight.com over at SB Nation for a discussion about the struggles this Phillies team continues to have after the trade deadline. While Andrew Painter has given us some optimism, what should we make of Aaron Nola from the mound at this point here in 2026? Relying on Alan Rangel out of the bullpen? Luis Arraez has been that spark the team has needed, but Alec Bohm has been nothing short of disappointing.

Was the Nic Claxton trade really one of the worst moves of the NBA offseason — or are people missing what the Chicago Bulls actually needed?On today's Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down why SB Nation ranking the Bulls' acquisition of Nic Claxton as the fifth-worst move of the offseason may be too harsh. The asset-management criticism is fair: Chicago used cap space and took on roughly $44 million over two years instead of extracting draft capital. But from a basketball standpoint, Claxton checks several major boxes for this roster. The Bulls finished 22nd in defensive rating, allowed opponents to shoot 58.9% in the paint, and badly needed a real defensive center next to Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis and Caleb Wilson.Haize explains how Claxton gives Tiago Splitter defensive flexibility with switching, mobility, length, blitzing ability and recovery speed. He also looks at how Claxton could help protect Matas and Caleb while they develop into a long, athletic defensive frontcourt. But the concerns are real: spacing could get ugly, Claxton's rebounding must bounce back, and the Bulls need the 2022-24 version of Claxton — not the statistically declining one from last season.Then the show shifts to Chicago's biggest offensive concern: is the Bulls' shooting actually as bad as it looks? Haize breaks down why the answer may be “not as bad as people think.” Josh Giddey has become a respectable shooter, Matas Buzelis already has high-volume three-point confidence, Caleb Wilson changed the conversation in Summer League, Norman Powell brings proven shooting gravity, and Jalen Smith may be too important as a stretch big to give away.

his week on the OPPOSITION TERRITORY podcast, Jeff sat down with Evan “Tex” Western from AcmePackingCompany.com at SB Nation for a great and in-depth conversation about the Green Bay Packers, their training camp, and a number of storylines with this team heading into the 2026-2027 season. Can this team be competitive this coming season as they jettisoned so much talent during the offseason? What are the expectations for QB Jordan Love as he looks to get this offense over the hump? How will the cornerback room shake out during camp? Is the pass rush one of the big concerns heading into the NFL regular season?
