It's that time of year where everyone's favorite team is just a move or two away from lasting glory so we explore some potential trade candidates and ideas for the three Texas teams and then zoom out and check out some other intriguing teams and potential surprise stars on the move around the league. 

Back from our real life madness, John & Eric (Get well soon, David!) return from the ashes to give you some big picture "where do we stand right now?" opinions on the Rockets, Spurs, Mavs and also discuss some fun other league storylines. 

A heavily edited (like you could tell!) episode analyzing the early Summer League returns from the three Texas teams and around the league - plus a quick discussion of the KD/Donovan Mitchell trade landscape and some random asides as per the norm...

Our most competent Mavs discussion ever thanks to actually having a Mavs guy onboard! Dejounte trade fallout, Jae'Sean Tate Extension discussion, Brooklyn collapse, etc...

We stand on the cusp of one of the most exciting times of NBA fandom and many deals are already in the bag - whether officially or not. John and Eric discuss the Dejounte rumors, Wall buyout, Brunson departure and much more! 

After a fairly eventful First Round of the 2022 NBA Draft, our heroes John & Eric sit down to (rather drunkenly) discuss their first impressions of what the Rockets and Spurs did early on and some long term prospects for how these new players might fit in with their new teams. A few good ole' fashioned wrasslin' tangents but mostly some good kneejerk draft reactions.

Our first ever episode with mid-recording breaking news of this magnitude - MERCY! Lots of draft talk, analysis in all directions following the big trade and bracing ourselves for the ever likely Spurs surprises too. Does Wood get Dallas over the hump? Does Kidd have the right buttons to press to get him engaged defensively? Is this return for Houston kinda "meh?" or is it indicative of Wood's current value? Good to be back for another season covering the teams we love with y'all!

Is it morally ok to lose often and draft high? Yes. The end. But we discuss anyways? Then we're off to the races discussing the Mavs' playoff odds in a season of it seeming like there are no favorites and what kind of playoff surprises we foresee happening too. 

A spicy prediction a piece for each of the three Texas teams and one apiece for the rest of the league at large. We're entering the home stretch towards the most entertaining playoffs in sports will one or two points of the Triangle be involved or just Luka? What kind of improvements do the Rockets make down the stretch? Was the Dinwiddie trade as much of a masterpiece as the early returns would suggest? All this and more! 

Reacting to the deadline after time to emotionally process only makes us less reasonable! Discussion of the draft pick implications for the Rockets after the Simmons/Harden Blockbuster, gushing over the Spurs' trade deadline, even a halfway decent proper Mavs segment and everything! Also wrestling talk bc we just can't help it.
