Is there confusion with the Rockets? Will the Rockets sign Tari Eason to an extension? News of the weird
This week's NBA draft concluded with the Houston Rockets adding Ohio State guard Bruce Thornton (second round) and North Carolina State guard/wing Quadir Copeland (UDFA) to their 2026-27 roster. In Thursday's show, our Ben DuBose reacts to the implications of both additions.The episode also looks ahead to the June 30 launch date of 2026 free agency, including internal contract considerations for Fred VanVleet and Tari Eason and analysis of why a major external trade (Jaylen Brown?) could be difficult to execute.
Walker Kessler, Payton Watson, Jalen Duren, Tari Eason... All guys who make a lot of sense for the Lakers. Anthony explains why the risk in signing them is probably too much to take lightly for the Lakers.
NBA Draft Round 1 Takeaways How can Jaylen Brown fit on this Rockets roster? Who should the Rockets take in the second round? At what price point can the Rockets keep Tari Eason?
Getting in the ring certainly requires a different perspective...On this episode we're getting into the squared circle to get a unique perspective on one of our new favourite shows. It's time for 'Margot's Got Money Troubles'.From creator David E. Kelley, this is the story of a young mother (Elle Fanning) struggling to make ends meet. When her estranged father (Nick Offerman offers help, she starts an OnlyFans account using his advice from pro wrestling. Though successful, she wonders if Internet fame comes at too high a cost.This is a story with some wild edges that has to have some wild visual esthetics to it. On that front we had the unique pleasure of sitting down with cinematographer Tari Eason who worked on a number of episodes and even found that right stylistic look for when the characters got in the ring.'Margot's Got Money Troubles' is available on Apple+ now.
Chicago Bulls fans are already hearing a wave of free agency and trade rumors, but which ones are actually worth buying? Haize breaks down the latest Facts or Cap surrounding the Bulls' rumored interest in Austin Reaves, Tari Eason, Christian Braun, and Sandro “Mamu” Mamukelashvili.Could Austin Reaves really leave Los Angeles for Chicago, or is that rumor dead before it even starts? Does Tari Eason still make sense with a new Bulls front office and Chicago likely targeting a forward such as Caleb Wilson or Cam Boozer at No. 4? Is the Christian Braun trade buzz credible, or just another rumor Bulls fans should be careful with? And why could Mamu be the kind of low-cost, low-usage veteran role player who actually fits the Bulls' rebuild?Haize also discusses whether targeting veterans could become a surprising part of the Bulls' free agency plans, why Chicago should avoid overpaying for restricted free agents, and how Bryson Graham may balance cap space, young-player development, and roster needs.Plus, the Bulls could be watching Alabama guard Labaron Philon Jr. closely if he falls near pick No. 15 in the 2026 NBA Draft. Haize breaks down Philon's scoring, shooting, downhill ability, defensive upside, and potential fit next to Josh Giddey. The show also looks at the Bulls' in-person workout list, including Kingston Flemings, Mikel Brown, Bennett Stirtz, Ebuka Okorie, Tamin Lipsey, and Peter Suder.
Cleveland made some adjustments in Game 2, but ultimately the game had the same flow as Game 1. Will the series shift in Cleveland? The Lakers have played OKC well through 2 games with their doubling of Shai, but OKC won the game with their MVP off the floor. 41:00 Then, we look at the free agent small forwards. What does LeBron James want? If it's just his on-floor ability, what kind of contract should he command? We also discuss Andrew Wiggins with his team option and go deep on the Thunder finances with Lu Dort's team option and the Celtics' with Jordan Walsh. Plus, what should Tari Eason's market look like in restricted free agency? 1:06:00 Join Dunc'd On Prime!
