    Giannis (Kind of) Demands a Trade + All-Star Selections

    With the NBA All-Star rosters announced, Sean talks through his thoughts on the selections—what did they get right and who got robbed? (1:03) Then, with the NBA trade deadline this week and all eyes on the Giannis sweepstakes, Sean talks through Giannis’ (sort of?) trade request (24:38), why an offseason deal makes more sense than a deadline deal (29:12), and then discusses the teams that could be involved, including the top four rumored destinations (36:05), some teams that could pull it off if they wanted but probably won’t (57:28), a few teams that make more sense in the offseason (1:12:01), and then Sean’s favorite destination of them all (1:21:18). Lastly, Sean briefly touches on two minor trades that went down already, centered around De’Andre Hunter (1:28:18) and Vit Krejci (1:34:25).

    Early Season Sample Size Roulette

    Let's play another edition of my annual game called Sample Size Roulette, where I answer whether or not the sample size is big enough to say that... the Hawks are better off without Trae Young (0:47), the Mavs should blow it up and trade AD (11:03), the Magic are closer to a play-in team than an East contender (21:45), the Rockets don’t need to add a guard this year (29:48), the Pistons should be co-favorites in the East (40:57), the Thunder could break the 73-win record (51:01), the Clippers are not a playoff team (57:21), Joel Embiid is completely washed (1:05:11), the Suns are a playoff contender (1:13:40), and Wemby could win MVP this season (1:23:47).
