Episode 26 - The Nose Job VANSLAM

The VanSlam podcast is back as Joshua is joined by Sean and Bowman to talk about what's happening with our favorite teams, all around the #NBA and maybe bash a couple of players or two (Trae Young*). Of course, there are the normal nonbasketball shenanigans as we test out our moans, talk some Batman (Don't worry no spoilers), judge Lebron James parenting in the Space Jam movie, and a whole lot more.

First off we discuss what is happening with the Toronto Raptors and #WeThe North. After back-to-back wins against the Brooklyn Nets, they were once again defeated at the hands of their former coach Dwayne Casey and the Detriot Pistons. Another loss to the lowly Orlando Magic and is a playoff series the bar for this team?

Then we go over the Process and what's happening with the Philadelphia 76ers and their new addition. Bowman has asked all slander be scrubbed from past episodes as the fit has been amazing and Philly continues to rise up the Eastern Conference standings. We discuss the impact Harden has had on Joel Embiid and youngster Tyrese Maxey and the non-impact he has had on Tobias Harris.

Then we discuss if JA Morant should be in the MVP conversation and why there should be a "Most Exciting Player" award. The MVP discussion continues between Embiid and Nikola Jokic and why if one of us ever disappears you should look to the brothers. We finish off trashing whatever the Lakers are trying to do and welcoming back Zion Williamson to the New Orleans Cassowary.
