Podcasts about Shams Charania

The Lakers are still reportedly very, very interested in acquiring Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving, and to get him the Nets likely need resolution to the Kevin Durant Trade Situation. And that end of things saw some huge news Monday, as The Athletic's Shams Charania reports Durant gave Nets owner Joe Tsai an ultimatum: You can have me, or you can have GM Sean Marks and coach Steve Nash. You can't have both. So does that make it more likely Durant is moved? On the one hand, Tsai can't give into Durant's demands, or he cedes total control of his organization to one player, and torches his credibility across the league. On the other, what team wants to give up the farm for a 34-year old superstar who got EVERYTHING he asked for in Brooklyn, and still demands a trade? And even if Durant is moved, does that mean the Nets will automatically be in a situation where they are tearing it all down and have to rebuild, adding the spoils of an Irving deal to whatever they get for Durant? Not so fast... And finally, what do superstar-oriented teams like the Lakers, currently dealing with at least the perceived possibility of LeBron James making demands before signing an extension, do in reaction? What lessons does everyone learn? Would LeBron follow a similar path, here? HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: KD gives Joe Tsai an ultimatum. How do you think Tsai reacts? SEGMENT 2: What does this mean for the likelihood of a Kyrie-to-LA deal? More likely? Less? SEGMENT 3: What do the dumpster fires in LA and Brooklyn teach those teams, and the rest of the league? Is change coming? Would LeBron get this aggressive, if the Lakers don't make another move before camp? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Shams Charania of the Athletic reported Kevin Durant told Nets owner Joe Tsai, to trade him, or fire GM Sean Marks and coach Steve Nash. Maybe Durant should buy his own team.

News around the Lakers has been dominated by potential trades, whether for Kyrie Irving or Myles Turner and Buddy Hield. Tuesday, the rumor mill was quiet, giving everyone a break. At least for a day. And we learned the Lakers made a low key important move, as ESPN's Marc Spears reported a contract extension for assistant coach Phil Handy. As one of the most respected assistants in the game, with a strong background in player development, the franchise (and new head coach Darvin Ham) need his skill set in a big way. A contract extension may not keep him here forever - there is always chatter Handy could end up a head coach - but it helps. Handy's ability as a communicator becomes important as Ham moves to a different role than he has traditionally played. Darvin won't stop talking with players, and won't stop dealing with them straight, but there's a difference between being head coach and an assistant when it comes to the freedom players often feel to talk about issues they might have. Having Phil Handy around fills that space in a high end way. Meanwhile, one guy who won't be on the staff? Rasheed Wallace, apparently. Despite a summer of rumors, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports the Lakers won't be adding him to Ham's coaching group. From there, we learned more about Ham when he was a guest on the All the Smoke podcast with Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson. Great insight into Ham's attention to detail when it comes to people and culture. And more context into why he views this job as a challenge, and feels confident the pressure won't beat him down. He knows it's there, obviously, but doesn't seem likely to be ruled by it. HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: Phil Handy gets an extension. SEGMENT 2: Why Phil matters, especially given Ham's shift from lead assistant to head man. SEGMENT 3: More evidence Ham has the mental makeup to do this job well.

Episode 396 of the "Sports Illustrated Media Podcast" hosted by Jimmy Traina features an interview with ESPN NBA reporter Brian Windhorst. Windhorst talks about his experience of going viral after a clip of him speculating about a possible Utah Jazz trade on "First Take" went viral. Did he know Rudy Gobert was going to be traded when he talked about Utah's "strange" trade of Royce O'Neale? Did producers say anything to him during his lengthy segment? What was his reaction when Gobert did get traded? Did he have a favorite meme? Windhorst also discusses his relationship with LeBron James, the one question he'd like to ask LeBron, the one question he'd like to ask Kevin Durant, whether he feels competitive with Adrian Wojnarowski and Shams Charania and much more. Following Windhorst, is the weekly "Traina Thoughts" segment with Sal Licata from WFAN radio and SNY TV in New York. Jimmy and Sal discuss Jimmy's hatred of the hot dog eating contest, college realignment in college football, Kevin Durant's trade request and Jimmy's day trying New Haven, Connecticut's very overrated pizza See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Last week, momentum seemed to be gathering around a trade that would bring Kyrie Irving to the Lakers. This week, Shams Charania of The Athletic is reporting that the teams no longer have any "traction" on a deal, and he's wondering if the thing will ever happen at all. So what happens now? Are the Lakers and Nets each destined to hold on to their respective problematic point guards? Well, a lot of it has to do with leverage. The Lakers have a little bit over the Nets - namely that no other teams seem interested in acquiring Kyrie - and the Nets have more over L.A., because without a deal it's pretty certain the Lakers won't have a shot at winning anything significant this season. Fans want action. LeBron James wants action! Can the Lakers, then, afford not to act? And when it's all said and done, how much pressure are the Nets really under to make a deal? Does it have to get done before the year? Could they, as they now are reportedly willing to do, proceed as if they'll start the year with Irving, Kevin Durant and Ben Simmons? That squad (which just picked up TJ Warren on a cheap deal) would have a chance to contend, so it seems reasonable that if the Nets want to repair the relationship with K.D., it doesn't make sense to move Irving and undercut Brooklyn's competitiveness. So settle in, folks, this could take a while. How much should the Lakers be willing to part with, anyway? What should be the goal? What's a good "all in" deal? Finally, Summer League! The summer Lakers lost in the Finals of the California Classic, but the guys that matter - Max Christie, Cole Swider, Scotty Pippen Jr. - all showed positive signs. Jay Huff, too!

It is no surprise that nearly every team in the NBA has constructed a trade package for Brooklyn Nets superstar Kevin Durant. While every team would love to have him, only a select few teams actually possess the assets needed to make a trade possible. With reports indicating that the Brooklyn Nets are seeking All-Star level players, young pieces, and several draft picks in exchange for Kevin Durant, not many teams have what it takes to pull-off a deal. In a recent report from The Athletic's Shams Charania, the Golden State Warriors, Toronto Raptors, Phoenix Suns, and Miami Heat were mentioned as the teams currently leading the race for Kevin Durant. "Teams like Phoenix, Miami, Toronto, Golden State, those are really among the teams that are gonna be at the forefront, as far as trying to pursue a Kevin Durant deal," Charania said. "But given the asking price that has already been set forth, this is a process that could take several weeks, could take several months, could take the remainder of this offseason."For now, it seems as if the same teams continue to remain at the top of these discussions, which is not surprising when considering the available packages they possess. The Warriors, Raptors, Heat, and Suns all have All-Star level players, young talent, and draft choices that could be of interest to Brooklyn. The deciding factor on where Durant ends up, will likely come down to which team willingly departs with the largest combination of those three desired returns for the Nets.

According to Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports, James Harden met with Daryl Morey & the Sixers ownership group yesterday to discuss his contract extension. Will it get finalized this week?

EA and 2K both made bizarre social media gaffes this past week, and like most gamers, we're unimpressed. Meanwhile, Shams Charania appears to have leaked the NBA 2K23 cover player. We also reflect on NBA 2K22 as a new preview season looms, recap another fun session with NBA Jam: On Fire Edition, and open up the mailbag to talk about the Top 5 players in this year's game. The post NLSC Podcast #433: A 10, But They Spoiled the NBA 2K23 Cover appeared first on NLSC.

The day before NBA Free Agency kicked off, the Timberwolves got their summer started by extending forward Taurean Prince for two more seasons. Prince, much to many fans' delight, will be returning as an impact veteran, both on the court and in the locker room, for a young Timberwolves team that saw great improvement last season. His new deal, worth $16 million over the next two seasons, could prove to be a win for the Wolves if he continues to play well this season. Once free agency officially started at 5 PM CT, we saw the floodgates open as Shams Charania tweeted out deals left and right. There was not much for surprises in the first wave, at least not major ones. The Timberwolves did not make a move for over two and a half hours until it was reported that they were signing former Memphis Grizzlies forward Kyle Anderson to a two-year deal for $18 million. The Wolves used most of their Mid-Level Exception to get Anderson on the roster. Then, as soon as it was possible, it was reported that Minnesota and star center Karl-Anthony Towns had agreed to terms on a four-year, supermax contract extension that will have Towns committed to Minnesota through the 2027-28 season. Towns, who arguably just finished his best season, will now be a pillar of the franchise for years to come. If he finishes his extension in Minnesota, he will be the longest tenured Wolf in history, having played for the team for 14 years. On the latest episode of the Bleav in Timberwolves Podcast, hosts Brendan Hedtke and Doug West talk about the Wolves extending Prince and Towns, signing Anderson, and the potential for a trade involving D'Angelo Russell. The duo also talks about: The Kevin Durant sweepstakes Rudy Gobert to Minnesota rumors Surprise signings & more!

Today, we react live to all of the initial signings for the 2022 NBA Free Agency.

This is the full segment regarding Kyrie Irving rumors - even that he might end up with the Knicks. Boomer & Gio give their unedited opinions on Kyrie and the thought of him going across the East River.

Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reported that the Brooklyn Nets and mercurial guard Kyrie Irving have reached an impasse in contract negotiations, making it more likely the Nets star decides to become a free agent. And if that happens, Charania says the Lakers, of course, would be among the interested parties. So much to unpack. On Monday's show the idea of Bradley Beal, another potential target for the Lakers should things go wrong with Beal and the Washington Wizards, was tossed around. Players like Beal come with significant injury risk, and would cost a lot of money. But Beal is a rock solid locker room presence. Kyrie? He's like dropping a load of incredibly self-important dynamite into the building. You're just begging for an explosion. On the other hand, Irving is a transcendent offensive talent. That much is undeniable. So under what terms should the Lakers swing a deal (which would, definitionally, rid themselves of the Russell Westbrook contract), if it becomes an option? Would/should they give him a max contract, and hope for the best? Draw the line playing out next season and crossing the next bridge when they get there? Is a one year extension an option? And oh, does anyone know yet if LeBron James, with whom Irving won a chip back in Cleveland, would think another go round is a good idea? Especially after the disastrous Season Of Westbrook? One thing is clear: If the Lakers are going to make a commitment to Irving, they need to secure a commitment from James. HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: Kyrie Irving may become available, and if he does, the Lakers are reportedly interested. SEGMENT 2: What are the terms under which a deal for Kyrie might make sense? SEGMENT 3: Does LeBron want this kind of teammate this late in his career? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
