    Ja Morant Traded, Kawhi Leonard's Future, Celtics' Jaylen Brown Conundrum and the NBA's Most Important Moves (with Keith Smith)

    The NBA offseason never sleeps. Wes Goldberg is joined by NBA salary cap expert Keith Smith (Spotrac, Front Office Show, Sports Business Classroom) to break down the biggest moves, rumors and roster decisions around the league. They start with the surprising Ja Morant trade to Portland, debate Jaylen Brown's future in Boston, and play a fun game of "Intrusive Thoughts" by imagining a world where the Celtics trade Jayson Tatum instead. Plus, they fast-forward into a hypothetical future where Kawhi Leonard is back with the Raptors and discuss what that would mean for the Eastern Conference. Then it's time for the "Transaction Vlog," where Wes and Keith rapid-fire through the latest signings, contract decisions and option pickups—including Andrew Wiggins, Draymond Green, Kristaps Porzingis, Brook Lopez, Marcus Smart and more—to answer the big-picture questions each move creates. Finally, Keith shares insights from his Top 50 NBA free agents rankings, highlights the best remaining bargains, and explains what fans can expect from Sports Business Classroom this summer.

    Way-Too-Early Top 20 NBA Player Rankings For 2026-27 Season | Good Take

    Who are the 20 best players in the NBA heading into next season? We're doing the impossible: a way-too-early ranking of the league's elite and debating which stars belong in each tier. We start with the true franchise carriers—Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Nikola Jokic, Victor Wembanyama, and Giannis Antetokounmpo—the superstars capable of dragging a team into contention. Then we break down the No. 1 options who can lead championship runs with the right supporting cast, including Luka Dončić, Jalen Brunson, Anthony Edwards, Tyrese Haliburton, and Jayson Tatum. We also discuss the players we still need to see more from, including Cade Cunningham, Donovan Mitchell, and Karl-Anthony Towns, plus rank a loaded wing group featuring Kawhi Leonard, Jalen Williams, and Jaylen Brown. Can Tyrese Maxey and Scottie Barnes save the East Play-In tier? And where do NBA legends Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, and LeBron James belong as they continue to defy Father Time? Plus, we reveal the stars who just missed the cut, including Bam Adebayo, Devin Booker, Jamal Murray, and Pascal Siakam.   RealGM Radio is your top spot for the best weekly NBA coverage.

    Real Reason Celtics Are In Giannis Talks & Why Darryn Peterson Should Go No. 1 | Good Take

    Could the Boston Celtics actually be willing to trade Jaylen Brown for Giannis Antetokounmpo? On this episode of Good Take, Wes Goldberg and Mike Shearer react to the latest Giannis rumors and debate whether we're focusing on the wrong part of Boston's reported involvement. If the Celtics are serious, what would a realistic offer look like, and how does it compare to Miami's? Then it's time for Good Take. Wes makes the case that Darryn Peterson should be the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft, while Mike unveils his "Changed My Mind" team featuring players who dramatically altered his perception this season. In the And-1 segment, Wes reveals his updated Top 10 NBA players heading into next season, including where Victor Wembanyama, Jalen Brunson, Luka Doncic, and Giannis rank after a wild year around the league. Finally, Summer 3-Way heads to Utah.

    Winners & Losers of the 2025-26 NBA Season (with Keith Parish)

    The New York Knicks end a 53-year drought, capturing the NBA championship behind Jalen Brunson's rise and bold front-office moves. Can their wheeling-and-dealing become a league-winning blueprint? The episode spotlights the Knicks’ pivotal trades for Karl-Anthony Towns and Mikal Bridges, the hiring of Mike Brown, and dramatic Finals comebacks against the San Antonio Spurs. Brunson’s dominance and the strategic assembly of a star-heavy roster spark a reexamination of team-building philosophies across the league. Wes Goldberg and Keith Parish debate the futures of the Denver Nuggets, Oklahoma City Thunder, and Milwaukee Bucks after playoff stumbles, spotlighting shifting power dynamics as emerging stars like Victor Wembanyama and Anthony Edwards challenge aging superstars. The conversation also unpacks the league’s evolving attitudes toward small guards, the revitalization of the Charlotte Hornets, and the impact of NBA Cup and tanking reforms. Can teams thrive by staying competitive, or is “the middle” still a dead end?   00:00 Knicks' Championship Moves & Jalen Brunson Ascends 14:10 Discussing NBA player trades 19:07 Jokic entering his prime 20:44 Discussing Aaron Gordon's trade potential 30:13 LeBron joining the Hornets? 34:23 Discussing Wimby's effort in All-Star Game 39:18 Discussing changes to tanking rules 42:05 Team building strategies and trades 48:58 Needing a dynamic center 56:30 Critiquing 3-point reliance in playoffs 01:00:24 Building through the draft debate 01:02:57 Clippers' successful team reshuffle   RealGM Radio is your top spot for the best weekly NBA coverage.

    Knicks Complete Historic Comeback to Take Commanding NBA Finals Lead & Some NBA Draft Takes | GOOD TAKE

    On this week's episode of Good Take, Wes Goldberg and Mike Shearer react to the latest NBA Finals game before bringing their best NBA takes of the week. First, Mike argues that the 2024 NBA Draft could make history for all the wrong reasons. Could this class produce just one All-Star, making it the weakest star-producing draft class in generations? Then Wes counters with a draft philosophy take of his own. As roster construction becomes increasingly difficult, are 3-and-D wings the single safest and smartest first-round investment an NBA team can make? The guys discuss player development, trade value, roster flexibility and why players in the Mikal Bridges and Desmond Bane mold have become some of the league's most valuable assets. Finally, it's time for another edition of Summer 3-Way, where Wes and Mike build a three-step plan to fix the Los Angeles Clippers. Should the Clippers stay patient with Kawhi Leonard? What should they do in the draft? And how can they maximize the roster after already making major moves at the trade deadline?
