  • Ep. 177 - Covid protocols take over the league
    On this week's episode, we're down a man as Rajan is enjoying his time on a beach while Josh and Peter are stuck trying to figure out what to do with health and safety protocols for the NBA. The two talk about what the league will have to do with seemingly more and more players entering H&S protocols and games will begin to get cancelled again, superstars showing up to the season overweight, the Utah Jazz's under-covered rise and change in offense, and  how the BelieveLand Cavaliers have taken the league by storm.
