Reiter Than You

Bill jumped on the pod with Pretty Daddy just as the news broke: The Minnesota Timberwolves had sent Naz Reid and a bevy of picks and pick swaps to Charlotte for LaMelo Ball. Bill hated it. Tom loved it. So they got into what, exactly, this means, why it happened, and what its says about not just the T-Wolves but the NBA writ large.

Giannis finally got traded, and his move to Miami creates more questions than it answers for Bill and Tom: Are the Heat actually good? How do they fill out the roster? Did the Bucks win this deal? Why not the trade with Boston instead? Is Doc Rivers still the absolute worst? 

We get into that and more, plus we talk Dusty May to Dallas and plenty of World Cup. 

Things are slow, soccer is having a moment, and so Pretty Daddy rolled in for an uncomfortable — and widely enjoyable — bit of podcast jazz with Bill. We moved across many topics, talked soccer and marriage and LeBron and the past, and generally had a great time. Hope you enjoy.

Bill and Stu go deep on the World Cup: Why the USMNT might be legit, an all-time debacle by Spain, Brazil’s potential issues, Germany’s great start and more. Plus, we ponder how the Knicks built a surprising championship run and what to make, now, of Wemby and the Spurs. Plus, a Buy or Sell that Stu turns into pure excellence.

Bill and Pretty Daddy return with a pod at the same time the Spurs, perhaps, turned the tide in the NBA Finals. They also marvel at Wemby, worry over Brunson, argue about who actually wins this thing, and generally have a good time. Plus, a Buy or Sell at the end.
