In this episode of The Trade Machine, we rewatched Kobe's last game. We talk about the legend of Kobe Bryant, how his career could have been different, and his game-winner and 60 points in his final game. We also look at the interesting mix of players in this game, talk way too much about the Cavs, and Hunter survives an intruder.

In this episode, Rich, Hunter and Alex draft their candidates for the 25-26 Most Improved Player. Between positional fit takes, picks out of left field, and the NBA's best nickname, this was as fun as it gets.

Ten years ago, the Golden State Warriors were on the cusp of greatness. A 67-win juggernaut heading into a season that would change basketball forever. Now, in 2025, the Oklahoma City Thunder are knocking on the same door. In this special kickoff to our ‘A Decade Later’ series, we break down what makes a dynasty, what made those Warriors special, and whether this young OKC squad has the same ingredients to run the league in 2026 and beyond.

In this episode of the Trade Machine Podcast, hosts Alex Sons, Hunter, and Richard Jones Jr. draft MVP candidates for the upcoming NBA season. They discuss their top picks, analyze the impact of team dynamics, and explore emerging stars and dark horses in the upcoming MVP race.
