Justin Morelli CEO and Host of The Shot Clock joins Combo’s Court for a wide-ranging NBA conversation that begins with the New York Knicks and expands into how the league — and the way we evaluate greatness — is changing.

We kick things off by breaking down the Knicks’ biggest on-court concerns, focusing on roster construction, defense, and whether elite offense can truly outweigh defensive liabilities when the playoffs slow the game down. We debate the Brunson–Karl-Anthony Towns fit, Mike Brown’s new system, and whether these are solvable issues or real limits on the Knicks’ championship ceiling.

From there, the conversation opens up to the league at large:

• Why NBA scoring has exploded

• What efficiency really means — and what fans often misunderstand

• Why midrange shot-making still decides playoff games

• How coaching, pace, and spacing have reshaped the modern NBA

We also dive deep into player evaluation and development:

• Cade Cunningham vs. Jalen Brunson — size, skill, defense, and playoff proof

• What defines a true franchise player today

• Kon Knueppel’s ceiling and realistic NBA outcome

• Cooper Flagg’s projection beyond “generational” hype

Wes Goldberg (NBA Real GM Radio) joins Combo’s Court to break down what’s really going on with the Bucks, how bad the vibes actually are, and whether Giannis finishes the season in Milwaukee.

We dive into the Knicks and Heat as potential landing spots, what a realistic trade would even look like, and how Giannis fits next to Jalen Brunson or Bam Adebayo. Wes explains why every contender would at least make the call — and why timing matters more than people think.

We also touch on the league-wide scoring boom, the rise of OKC, and how a player like Lauri Markkanen could swing the entire trade market.

Topics:

• Giannis wipes Bucks content from IG — what it really means

• Knicks vs Heat: Who’s the better fit for Giannis right now?

• Could Milwaukee actually move Giannis in-season?

• Why NBA scoring is exploding league-wide

• Skill level across every position in 2025

• OKC’s rise and what could shake up the West

• Lauri Markkanen as a league-shifting trade piece
