Talkin Hoops with Kev Luke

James Harden gets so much hate for mostly reasons that he had no control of so I’m here today to help hoop fans appreciate the greatness that he is and has showed us for the past decade plus. Then I talk about the Clippers deciding to make Paul George the highest paid players in the league by giving him a max contract extension worth 4yrs/$190M so I get into that decision.

The Fighting Illini lead by Ayo Dosunmu and Brad Underwood came into Cameron Indoor Stadium last night and handed Duke and Coach K their 2nd home loss so far in this early season I break it all down on today’s pod.

James Harden and his camp are failing each other because the Rockets have put together a really good team around him to finally compete for a championship under Head Coach Stephen Silas. Also, the Kentucky Wildcats have had a rough start to their season as they now sit with an overall record of 1-3 so I break down their problems and the ways to fix those problems.

Rafael Stone and Tommy Sheppard officially agreed to a deal yesterday to send John Wall and a 2023 first round pick to Houston in exchange for Russell Westbrook, who’ll now be a Washington Wizard so I talk about this trade from both sides. Also, Rob Pelinka and the Lakers have officially extended the contracts of both Anthony Davis and LeBron James so I talk about the reigning champs locking in their stars for the near future.

Michigan State earned itself a hard earned victory last night by traveling to Durham, North Carolina and beating Duke in Cameron Indoor Stadium. Then in the 2nd game of the Champions Classic Kansas beat Kentucky in a very ugly game but yet still pulled it out in Indianapolis.

The Cardinals got a really nice win in Ziaire Williams’ college debut over Nate Oats and Alabama and will advance to take on Roy Williams and the UNC Tarheels today so I broke down that game. I also previewed the highly anticipated Champions Classic between Duke and Michigan State and Kentucky vs Kansas. Tap in

College basketball is finally back and I couldn’t be any more happier so I break down Richmond vs Kentucky and I also break down Virginia Tech vs Villanova in a tough OT loss for Nova. Lastly I break down the Hawks acquisition of Bogdan Bogdanovic. Tap inwardly ‼️

Two former Kentucky Wildcats have had big off seasons in the past few days and I’m proud to be talking about both these big men in DeMarcus Cousins and Bam Adebayo both earning contracts ‼️

19 of the 30 teams in the NBA have all made nice moves in order to improve their rosters already in the beginning days of the 2020 Free Agency period. So I break them all down in today’s episode.
