Solo pod by Nate discussing the Luka/AD deal and a bunch of transactions after an exciting Feb. 6th NBA trade deadline day.

With the NBA debuting the play-in tournament the NBA has seen an increase in the end of season viewership and generally more interest for the last week of regular season. Which means there are more teams, more storylines and more drama in the NBA! Pawdy makes his debut on Baker & Browns all the way from Ireland with plenty of great insight on the league, some hot takes & as a side he makes sense of the Sacramento Kings season. 

For more of Pawdy's hot takes catch him on Locker Room or on Twitter! (@Pawdyy)

Nate is joined by Paul Curtis for the initial unintentional yearly redraft show. After realizing we recorded 2017's NBA draft a year ago, every May 2nd moving forward we will be redrafting the lottery picks of an NBA draft, this year it is 2018. 

With plenty of disagreements & questionable picks this episode is a great recap and analysis of the 2018 NBA class.

The New York Knicks breakout season has been an underrated story this year in the NBA that I wanted to highlight. Who better than to break this Knicks season down than the one and only Bootum! Bootum is a super knowledgeable Knicks fan who breaks down their roster build, Julius Randle's breakout year, Elfrid Payton woes, Thibs style and a bunch of other topics. It was a super fun and informative episode & I am looking forward to having Bootum on the pod again soon! 

You have probably seen Bootum on NBA Twitter, read on his viral Reddit posts or seen one of his lowlights videos. Here are some links where you can find his content. As mentioned in the podcast, the Nerlens Noel No Hands video is a must watch.

Note: There was a few technical issues in this episode which I apologize for, still tweaking the systems here. 

Nate and Paul breakdown every trade from the 2021 NBA Trade Deadline. Everything from the Magic cleaning house to Houston's woes to the Raptors decision to hold Kyle Lowry for the rest of the year. It was an eventful deadline with a lot of minor rather than major moves as teams prepare for the playoffs & the play-in. The greatest rap song that has an NBA player's name in it is also discussed at the end! 

Paul and Nate are back after an 11 month hiatus. They do a general catch up on the league post all-star break and discuss the implications and asterisks fans will put on the "COVID season." Joel Embiid's injury is discussed and how that affects his MVP campaign. Nate also runs through some trades that likely will never happen. Enjoy! 

Paul Curtis joins Baker and Browns once again for a Zoom recorded episode redrafting the first 14 picks of the 2017 NBA Draft. Our goal was to formulate the best possible team and pick guys who trajectory is high in our opinions. A pretty similar list with a few disagreements to make it interesting. There is a slight technical difficulty at Nate's 10th pick as the Zoom call cut out. We both think that this draft will go down as one of the best for the decade.
