Show Notes
On today's episode, Jason shares his thoughts on Tuesday's NBA Opening Night action. The Brooklyn Nets blew out the Golden State Warriors, but it's just one game. The big takeaway here is that Kevin Durant looked like the KD of old. If he can stay healthy, the Nets could be a legitimate title threat. In the nightcap, the Los Angeles Clippers spoiled the Los Angeles Lakers 'Ring Night' and walked way with the win. Paul George looked good and the Lakers flashed great depth so it was a good sign for both teams. Overall, NBA Opening Night was a success for all parties involved (except Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors. Yikes!) Plus, ESPN NBA insider Brian Windhorst swings by to discuss the best and worst parts of doing his job during a pandemic, how the once 'spicy' 2021 NBA free agent class has taken a massive hit, why he's not surprised at how slow moving the James Harden trade market has been and why he could see a team like the Denver Nuggets make a run at Harden, why he's not betting on Kawhi Leonard leaving the Los Angeles Clippers this summer and why Montrezl Harrell decided to leave the Clippers for the Lakers, why he's all-in on Zion Williamson this upcoming season, what he's expecting from LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers in their quest to repeat as NBA champions, why he believes Bradley Beal is the only other superstar outside of Kawhi that other teams are keeping tabs on, and much more!
