Roughly 10 games into the 2022/23 NBA season and some early trends are starting to not look so much like trends, but reality. Jake, Josh & Batey are back this week, diving into the conundrum of the Utah Jazz's supposed tank, the impact of Kawhi's 'no timetable' injury to the Clippers, Russell Westbrook's fun new role, the Cavs' genuine credibility, Kyrie & Brooklyn's disaster unfolding, and (already?) the 2nd Backdoor Cut Bowl of the year.

One week down and already signs of unease at the choices made in the Overs/Unders Extravaganza. A huge week of NBA, Jake, Josh & Batey award the first (very deserving) Rose Gold winner of the season, mulligan/double down on last week's predictions, walk through the Pelicans vs. Mavericks and Celtics vs. Bulls (Backdoor Cut Bowl) matchups of earlier in the day, chat Nets, Sixers, Jazz, and so much more.
