Nate Duncan hosts the most in-depth NBA basketball podcast, featuring detailed game breakdowns, salary cap analysis, and scouting.

A fascinating final day of action unfolds, with huge games between Orlando and Milwaukee, Phoenix and Minnesota, and LA and New Orleans overshadowed by….Cleveland and Charlotte? Why JB Bickerstaff’s closing lineup will go down in tanking lore.

Plus, the Knicks’ fascinating decision (which they may not even have considered) of whether to win against Chicago, the Bulls’ curious decision to go for it against New York, and whether the Lakers should actually consider losing the 7 vs 8 game to avoid the Nuggets.

The 2024 Postseason is Set

It’s time to take stock of how we did on our preseason over/under picks and analyze what went right and what went wrong for our preseason predictions, and also see who will be crowned the over/under king this season.
