KG's Jersey Retirement Set, HOF Talk, and the Schröder Trade Ripple Effect

It's a fun August Day of news around the Association. First, Kevin Garnett's long-awaited (and for a variety of reasons, long overdue) Minnesota Timberwolves jersey retirement day has been set, appropriately against the visiting Boston Celtics, the team KG left Minneapolis for in order to finally break through and win a title. But by his own admission, the greatest T-Wolf in franchise history never lost his love for his former squad (if not his former squad owner), so it's awesome to see an all-time NBA great (much less Minny icon) properly celebrated. From there, a look at who's getting inducted in the Hall of Fame this weekend, and which names could soon join the likes of Amar'e Stoudemire, Doc Rivers, Candace Parker, Chamique Holdsclaw, and Mike D'Antoni (among others). From there, a look at how a trade sending Dennis Schröder to the Hornets opens up some apron-related breathing room for the Cavaliers, and whether it could be a step towards a sign-and-trade involving Peyton Watson or Jonathan Kuminga. Plus, LeBron James got the mural treatment in Philly. Will he be able to satisfy a notoriously rough fan base?

The NBA Believes In Steph Curry TOO MUCH

NBA shake-up: Should the league slash its 82-game schedule for better basketball? Matt Moore breaks down why fewer games and fewer back-to-backs could mean a higher-quality product, debating the best season format and innovative ideas like a midseason All-Star break and the future of the NBA Cup. Key talking points include injury prevention, the challenge of maintaining historical stats, and what it means for player longevity and fan excitement. Plus, the hosts question the NBA’s heavy reliance on veteran stars like LeBron James and Steph Curry for national TV coverage, pointing to the lack of exposure for emerging talents like Tyrese Haliburton and Cam Boozer. The controversy continues as the LA Clippers re-sign Bradley Beal, raising eyebrows about team direction, roster flexibility, and potential trade implications involving Brandon Ingram, Peyton Watson, and Brook Lopez. Can the Clippers’ mix of youth and experience make noise in the West, or is a rebuild looming? Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

SECOND CHANCE: Ben Simmons EYES NBA Comeback—Which Team MAXIMIZES His Defensive IMPACT?

The NBA mourns the loss of coaching icon Don Nelson, whose trailblazing strategies with the Boston Celtics, Golden State Warriors, Dallas Mavericks, and Milwaukee Bucks shaped generations of basketball—from the birth of the point forward to empowering big men like Dirk Nowitzki. Which of Nelson's innovations most influenced the modern game, and how will teams honor his expansive legacy? As the offseason buzz intensifies, the spotlight shifts to Ben Simmons and his push for an NBA return, with potential suitors including the Lakers, Timberwolves, Cavaliers, and Clippers. The hosts (Tony East and Swipa) debate Simmons' defensive value and fit, while Joel Embiid’s “extra motivated” offseason and renewed health spark questions about the Philadelphia 76ers’ championship ceiling. Hot takes abound on Embiid vs. Giannis, the rise of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and which stars will define the NBA’s next era.

Did the NBA Get the Christmas Day Schedule RIGHT?

The NBA has revealed its Christmas Day and Opening Week schedules, and Wes Goldberg, Matt Moore and Haize are handing out their first reviews. Did the league get its five-game Christmas showcase right with Spurs-Knicks, Heat-Celtics, 76ers-Lakers, Thunder-Timberwolves and Nuggets-Warriors? Which teams got snubbed, which matchups should be swapped and what does the schedule tell us about which teams and stars the NBA believes matter most? Then the guys go through what they like—and don't like—about Opening Week, including earlier start times and the NBA's continued insistence on putting major East Coast audiences through late-night Warriors-Lakers games. Finally, it's back to the Rotation Lab to tackle the LA Clippers. Assuming Kawhi Leonard ends up in Toronto, what does the Clippers' opening-night lineup look like, how deep is their rotation and what should their goals be without Kawhi?

How do Lakers Fans Feel About New Ownership? And Why the Sale Needs to Happen Quickly

A drop was dropped on Lakers nation this week with the sale of the team from Mark Walter to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger. Nobody saw it coming, not even (reportedly) the principals until last weekend. Lakers fans rightly feel like a rug pull has taken place, and not surprisingly, perhaps, that sentiment seems to be impacting how many are reacting to the news. A poll we put up on the show's YouTube page indicates real pessimism around the sale/new ownership, and a solid amount of angst amidst fresh uncertainty. So as details continue to emerge around the why of the sale -- none of it sounds all that great for Walter -- the "what's next" is what matters to fans. And hopefully what's next comes relatively quickly. There is a lot -- A LOT -- that has to get done before this sale can be finalized and the team can start doing whatever it plans to do, whether around the front office, on the business side, or whatever. And delays don't help the Lakers, they just keep the team in a state of semi-limbo, operating normally for most day to day things, but in a sort of limbo for other things. Candidates for front office jobs might hold off accepting offers if they think they could get replaced by new ownership. That's just one example. Finally, does it matter that Bob Iger once identified as a Clippers fan? HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: This sale could take a minute, which is bad for the Lakers. SEGMENT 2: How are fans feeling? SEGMENT 3: Iger's relationships. Credit: Jayne Kamin-Oncea-Imagn Images Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

Mark Walter Will Sell Lakers to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger for $12.5 Billion

Well THAT was unexpected. After decades of family ownership, the Lakers will change ownership for the second time in less than a year and a half, with news breaking Wednesday that Mark Walter will be selling the team to a group led by venture capitalist Josh Kushner and former Disney head Bob Iger. The valuation is reportedly $12.5 billion, meaning Walter flipped the franchise for a tidy profit, having purchased 14 months ago for $10 billion. So why now? Theories abound. It could be related to Walter's health, having reportedly suffered a stroke in 2024 that has been challenging to recover from. It could be related to the federal investigation of his companies for insurance fraud. It could be Walter just doesn't love owning a basketball team in the same way he loves owning a baseball squad (he's keeping the Dodgers). Or it could be the aforementioned $2.5 billion. We'll learn more with time, but in the here and now there are significant questions about what comes next. The Lakers are in the middle of a significant remodel, tied very closely to Walter's ownership of the Dodgers. What happens to all of that? How long will it take for this sale to go through, and for new-new ownership to put its stamp on the organization? Do they have a similar operating philosophy to what the Lakers presumably were getting, via the Dodgers? It's a lot!
