    Was Sengun Really Getting “Targeted”?

    Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/CLNS and use code CLNS to get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup. Coach Nick and Combo start this one with Harden looking completely at home in Cleveland and what that actually means once the honeymoon phase ends. But the real meat of the show is the Sengun debate. After reporter says he’s being hunted, head coach Ime Udoka gives a quote that goes viral. So Coach Nick went back and watched tons of defensive possessions, raising the questions: What does “targeted” even mean? Was it actually happening or are we reacting to body language and a soundbite? From there it turns into a bigger conversation about how the game gets covered now and whether you need to truly understand what you’re watching. Of course Kobe Bryant comes up when talking about shot selection, European development, and why reading the game still separates players who win from players who just score.

    All Star Snubs, Lakers Vibes, And The SGA vs Kobe Argument Gets Heated

    Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/CLNS and use code CLNS to get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup. Coach Nick and Combo kick off the week with the All Star snub conversation and why leaving Kawhi off feels insane even with the availability caveat. Then they get into the Lakers, the defense, the vibes, and why the talent is obvious but the identity is not, especially with the Luka and Reaves fit and the rotation choices that make no sense. The Knicks come up next, including what it looks like when a team actually has a plan and why simplifying the defense can change everything, plus a quick dive into no middle and where it really took off in the NBA. Denver and OKC gets a check in too, including how much Aaron Gordon matters and why SGA’s scoring package makes you want to go work on your own game. And yes, the SGA vs Kobe debate goes fully off the rails, then somehow turns into a start bench cut that guarantees someone is going to be mad. They wrap with some channel housekeeping and a straight question for the audience about a subscription model, ad free videos, and what extras would actually be worth it.

    The Paul George Drug Test Mystery

    Visit ⁠https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/CLNS⁠ and use code CLNS to get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup. Coach Nick and Combo dig into the weirdest NBA headline of the week: Paul George getting hit with a 25-game suspension after admitting he took an “improper medication” while seeking mental health treatment. They talk through what the NBA actually cares about when it comes to banned substances, why the public will immediately demand the name of the drug, and where the line is between privacy and “you’re a public figure, it comes with the job.” From there it turns into a bigger argument: if teams and leagues already tolerate plenty of gray areas, why not just stop testing for everything, and what happens to records, careers, and player health if you do. They also hit the Clippers buzz (Kawhi looking like vintage Kawhi and somehow nobody cares), circle back to Giannis trade chatter and what a real Knicks package would even look like, and get into the “defensive stats are noisy” debate sparked by Jimmy Highroller’s Luka take. Plus: a quick riff on who’s actually in the Xs-and-Os YouTube lane, an eye-opening high school hoops story, NIL trickling down, and a couple of prospect/young-player check-ins including Igor Demin and the Kon Knueppel/Klay comps.

    Kon Knueppel Looks Like The Real Deal, Plus Giannis To Warriors Trade Talk And OKC Deadline Moves

    Protect your family with life insurance from Ethos now, by going to http://ethos.com/BBALL Coach Nick and Combo are back on a Saturday live show losing their minds (in a good way) over how real Kon Knueppel already looks, from the off-ball movement and “gravity” to the clean, repeatable mechanics that scream long-term shooter. They also dig into why Cooper Flagg’s shooting profile is a little weird right now, what the Hornets can actually build with LaMelo and Brandon Miller, and then it turns into full trade-machine season: Giannis to the Warriors, what a Jimmy Butler, Kuminga package would even mean, and whether the Spurs would ever entertain moving Dylan Harper for a superstar. From there it’s OKC asset hoarding, what Sam Presti should do at the deadline, Hartenstein rumors, and the bigger question of whether you really need elite three-point shooting to win four playoff rounds, or if defense and shot creation can carry you anyway. Plus: Pistons defense, Dr. J in today’s NBA, the dunk ban creating the skyhook, and a quick detour into whose jumper is actually prettier right now. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Is Giannis Done With The Bucks?

    Protect your family with life insurance from Ethos now, by going to http://ethos.com/BBALL Giannis is not exactly hiding it anymore, the vibes in Milwaukee are suboptimal, the home crowd is booing, and somehow he’s also taking like 11–12 shots a night. So what’s really going on here... Is this a “get me out” situation, or is it a Doc Rivers problem, a game plan problem, or a teammates-not-feeding-the-star problem? Coach Nick and Combo break down why it’s so hard for bigs to punish guys like Lu Dort and Alex Caruso in the post, how leverage and core strength flips the matchup, and why the rules in the post make it a whole different sport than the perimeter. Plus, we dig into what a Giannis trade would actually cost in 2026, why some teams don’t have the ammo, and which teams could realistically make the best offer. Then we pivot to the Knicks, the Brunson-KAT two-man game disappearing in real time, and why the easiest “fix” might not be coaching at all. And we cap it off with a quick shooting-form breakdown of Spencer Jones, plus a Kobe 81-point anniversary trip down memory lane. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Jimmy Butler’s ACL Changes Everything, Is Steph Curry’s Window Officially Closed?

    Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/CLNS and use code CLNS to get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup. Coach Nick and Combo break down the fallout from Jimmy Butler’s ACL injury and why it may quietly mark the end of the Warriors’ championship window. Even with Steph Curry still playing at an elite level, Golden State now faces brutal questions about roster construction, trade leverage, and whether there’s any realistic path left to contention. The conversation digs into what this injury means for Steph’s future, whether Jonathan Kuminga finally gets the runway he’s been denied, and how the Warriors’ front office is boxed in by the new CBA. Plus, a deeper look at why the Knicks’ defense has collapsed, how Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns are being targeted, and why defensive effort and rotations tell you everything about a team’s internal health. Later, the discussion widens to league-wide trends, heliocentric offenses falling out of favor, Miami’s offensive identity issues, coaching accountability, and whether the modern NBA is quietly moving toward a new offensive evolution. As always, this isn’t hot take theater, it’s real basketball analysis. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Is SGA Foul Baiting, and Do the Wolves Need a Trade?

    Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/CLNS and use code CLNS to get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup. Coach Nick and Combo get into the weirdest NBA debate that never ends, is Shai Gilgeous-Alexander “foul baiting,” or is he just elite at initiating real contact like every other star. They break down why OKC suddenly gets treated like the league’s villain, how playoff whistles differ from regular season whistles, and why “you can’t touch him” narratives make fans lose their minds. Plus: Ant’s career year, Wolves offense without a true point guard, Ja Morant trade chatter (Wolves vs Lakers), why NBA Twitter trashes dynamic guards like Ja and Trae, and the never-ending question of what actually counts as flopping. #BBALLBREAKDOWN #NBA #SGA #Thunder #Timberwolves #JaMorant #AnthonyEdwards Learn more about your ad choices.

    What Jaylen Brown, Kawhi Leonard, and the NBA Rulebook Are Telling Us

    Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/CLNS and use code CLNS to get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup. Coach Nick and Combo kick off the Monday morning live show with some vibes, some Jaylen Brown love, and a quick reminder that NBA players definitely have burners, with Kevin Durant basically confirming the whole internet has been arguing with a real person the entire time. From there, the guys get into why Kawhi Leonard is still a defensive problem even as he ages, why the Celtics are rolling, and what it means when Brown wants to be seen as the best two-way player in basketball. Then it’s straight into the Basketball Twitter chaos: foot contact, why stepping on a defender’s foot is a foul even if it feels “unfair,” and how pickup rules have cooked everyone’s brains when it comes to what the NBA rulebook actually says. Coach Nick breaks down the carry rule in simple terms, why certain Tyrese Maxey clips are getting misread, and why fans keep confusing “what I grew up with” for “what the rule is.” Plus, they hit the never-ending balance between offense and defense, including how Shai Gilgeous-Alexander fits into the modern foul-drawing conversation.
