    Joey and Sean welcome Rockets fan - and Clippers partial season ticket holder - Chad Briggs! We talk about Kyrie's trade demands, junkyard dogs, Melo on Portlandia, irrational hatred of the Utah Jazz, Charles Barkley dribbling "like a fat kid playing one-on-one," and sailing a banana boat through the sludge in Houston. LeBron James is lip-syncing on Instagram and it's really not cool, the Eastern Conference is like an abandoned Starbucks, and we all play "What Is Chris Paul Doing Right Now?"

    Dave, Joey, and Sean are joined by Julien Rodriguez (@juicemanji) for a special Summer League episode from Las Vegas.

  • Episode 59: “I don’t know if Blake Griffin could dunk over a Huffy right now”

    It's another emergency podcast as we recap all the madness of the first 24 hours of free agency. The Warriors bring everybody back, Oklahoma city fans buy Paul George jerseys so they can burn them in a year, Danny Ainge sits on his assets, and Blake Griffin gets a highly questionable five-year max deal. Is New Orleans cursed? Has The Process ever been more trustworthy? Was Tony Snell always fated to spend five year on the Bucks? Is George Hill screwed? And would Gordon Hayward leaving the Jazz for the Celtics because of his college coach be the whitest moment in NBA history?

    Sponsored by 2017's top vacation destination, the Eastern Conference.

  • Episode 58: “The ayahuasca dealers in Montana are really scrambling for product right now”

    Joey and Sean look at Phil Jackson's firing and the blockbuster Chris Paul trade. Should the Clippers blow it up? Should Russell Westbrook sign a supermax in Oklahoma City? Is D'Angelo Russell the heir to Monta Ellis? And is drafting a guy because he's a good fit for the triangle offense like buying a computer because it can play RealAudio files?

    (Closing music: "Everything Zen")

  • Episode 57: A draft recap with 59% bust potential
    Joey and Sean recap the relatively uneventful 2017 NBA Draft, where Jimmy Butler becomes a Timberwolf, Luke Kennard is outed as a baldie, Josh Jackson's crime spree moves to Phoenix, and Jonathan Isaac heads to Orlando, where athletic non-shooting forwards go to die. No ad read this week - Danny Ainge was supposed to acquire a sponsor, but he just couldn't pull the trigger on a deal.
