In a series that may decide Jimmy Butler’s free agency short list, the topics range from Joel Embiid possibly missing games (1:34), how the matchup against the Nets feels for Sixers fans (3:08), this season's head to head matchups (6:25).

(46:21)

The guys celebrate their 10th episode by discussing Ryen Russillo's dissing D'Angelo Russell on the Lowe Post and revisiting their possible Nets draft choices as they head to the Sweet 16. After opening with a shout out to an O.G. Brooklyn Nets bench great (0:24), they discuss Ryen Russillo suggesting that D'Angelo Russell's resurgence can be used as a "litmus test" for whether or not you understand basketball (4:28), and talk about the evolving nature of sports media and how much markets matter in the modern NBA landscape (18:10). Carl and Brett then revisit their potential Nets draft picks to watch in March Madness (24:00) and take a look at Washington's Matisse Thybulle, and preview the Sweet 16 for Tennessee PF Grant Williams, Kentucky PF PJ Washington, Gonzaga forwards Brandon Clarke and Rui Hachimura, and LSU PF Naz Reid.

(30:17) This was a fun one and we hope that you enjoy.
