When it comes down to clutch time who takes the last shot? Do you prioritize your best player even if they're having a rough game? Why didn't the Pelicans pay Lonzo Ball?

It was a disappointing opening night for the New Orleans Pelicans as they fall to the Philadelphia 76ers 117-97.

Tanking is not a new trend in pro sports, but it certainly has seen it happen in waves. From the "Trust the Process" 76ers to the race for Zion Williamson, the NBA has seen their sharing of teams tanking for draft spots in the last decade.     Jake Fischer is a writer for Bleacher Report, and he is the author of Built to Lose: How the NBA's Tanking Era Changed the League Forever. He joined Check Your Brain's Tony Mazur to look at which teams tanked "properly" and which ones did not, and the present and future of the NBA as far as the superstars and analytics go.     Jake's book is available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Built-Lose-Tanking-Changed-Forever/dp/1629378712       Follow Tony on his various social media platforms: Twitter - @TonyMazur Instagram - @tmaze25     Be sure to subscribe to Tony's Patreon. $5 a month gets you bonus content, extra podcasts, and early access to guests.

On today's episode, Jason kicks things off with a few thoughts on the Tennessee Titan's improbable victory over the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football. Facing a 4th-and-1 inside the five yard lines with only seconds left in the game, the Bills decided to go for it rather than kick a game-tying field goal. Josh Allen was stopped short and the Bills ultimately lost, but it was the right call. Every advanced stat says you go for it in that situation; Only coaches who are stuck in the stone age would settle for the field goal. What's more, Buffalo is already the class of the AFC, and the decision to act aggressively is only going to help them later in the season. Later, professional sports bettor Preston Johnson swings by to discuss why disgruntled superstar Ben Simmons has to play during the regular so the Philadelphia 76ers can raise his trade value, why James Harden MVP and scoring champion prop bets have serious value, why he's buying stock on the new-look Chicago Bulls in the Eastern Conference, why he believes Luka Doncic has the potential to finish his career alongside Michael Jordan and LeBron James in the GOAT conversation, why it's so hard to envision the New Orleans Pelicans winning 40+ games without a healthy Zion Williamson for most of the season, why he's expecting a big regression to the mean for the Los Angeles Clippers' shooters, why the clunky roster construction around LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook almost ensures that the Los Angeles Lakers will finish under their projected regular season win total, and much more! Finally, Jason closes the show with his preseason NBA Finals, MVP and Rookie of the Year Best Bets. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com

David Locke, radio voice of the Utah Jazz and Jazz NBA Insider, brings you the daily podcast on the Utah Jazz, Locked On Jazz. Now live on You Tube for every episode. In today's episode Locke takes a deep dive looking a last year's rotation and how this year's rotation will be similar or different. Both with Rudy Gay and without Rudy Gay. How does Eric Pashcall or Jared Butler or Trent Forrest fit into those minutes? What about when Mike Conley sits on the back end of a back to back? Could Miye Oni or Eliljah Hughes work their way into the rotation. What positive impacts can Hassan Whiteside have on Rudy Gobert in practice and by simply being another big man in the building or what about vice versa. What happens to the West if Zion Williamson is ready to explode? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
