    Episode #87: The Big Jazz Trade

    Christopher came out of retirement one last time to break down the monumental trade that sent Jalen Hood-Schifino to the Utah Jazz. This episode would have been timely… except Johnny took seven days to edit it, and in that time, the Jazz flipped Jalen to another team. So yeah, there’s really no point in uploading this. Don’t even know why I’m doing it. But hey, while you're here—Christopher and Johnny also discuss the Top 5 executive orders they'd sign if elected president, break down the movie The Presence, and share their latest recommendations. Enjoy this final episode of Best Frenemies. Christopher is heading back into retirement… unless the Utah Jazz somehow land the first pick and draft Cooper Flagg. Then, who knows?
