THe NBA trade Deadline is the most exciting time of the year and there were many trades made, but none of them were bigger than the blockbuster trade between the Philadelphia 76ers and the Brooklyn Nets. Ben Simmons finally gets out of the city of no love and gets traded to the Nets for James Harden. Both Yates and Billy are excited to see the beard in Philly, but for different reasons.   

Many have been waiting for trades to come down the pipeline now that the Trade deadline is near, and we finally got our first one between the Trailblazers and the Clippers. The trade and recent reports lead us to believe that there will be more trades in the near future. Also, the NFL has been under siege for their lack of black Head coaches and owners represented in their league; Yates and Bill give their thoughts on the matter.  

The Odds Leader in the MVP race faced off against Anthony Davis and the Lakers and it was a telling matchup. Yates and Bill Don't see eye to eye on a young budding star in the NBA and it gets a little heated.  

The Holiday break is over and TBD returns with a special guest from the ACC Network and ESPN Radio, Jordan Cornette. Jordan talks about his life with his new baby and his thoughts on some young stars in the NBA. Also, he makes two big confessions that may make Yates and Bill revoke his black card. 

We are inching closer to trade season and the Ben Simmons Trade talks seem to be heating up fast, the guys weigh the teams' options of return value for their disgruntled star. The Lakers seem to be in the dumps so far this season as they continue to struggle and lack continuity. Also, a discussion brews about "the Grandma code of conduct" and Kanye x Drake's concert last night. 

This week the guys give their top five players they would pay to see play in NBA, top three underrated fun players to watch, and somehow they dissect Yates fear of Wales.  

Thanksgiving is just around the corner but it seems like Zion Williamson has already started feasting and has put on his holiday weight. The Suns are the latest professional sports team to have perpetually cultivated a racist and misogynistic environment and we try to unpack the Travis Scott fatal concert. 

Ja Morant seems to be determined to show the league why he should've been drafted higher than Zion, the Lebron-less Lakers played well while Russ seemed to look like his old self, and we try to iron out the details of what a real dynasty is.   

DeAndre Ayton didn't receive the Max exstention he wanted; many of us were surprised and wondered why the suns didn't give him the compensation he felt he deserved after helping them get to the Finals last season. Ben Simmions has continued to be the thorn in the 76ers side and probably won't play in a Sixers uniform this season. Opening night of the NBA season was a great show but not so much for the Lake Show. 

Too much news to cover this week, Ben Simmons just decided to surprise the Sixers and pop up at the Wells Fargo Center, Kyrie has taken his "free thinker" persona too far and is now in deep water with the Nets, and Jon Gruden has lost his job for being ignorant and discriminatory to many marginalized groups.
