Stat padding, blockbuster trades, the MVP race, and more!

• Embiid and Stat Padding
• MVP Race, can a player be an MVP w/ 65 games played?
• The Detroit Pistons / Washington Wizards "Blockbuster Trade" and if Marvin Bagley should dethrone Same Bowie as the biggest draft bust.
  • A history lesson about how Moneyball is a misleading narrative.
• We discuss Pascal Siakam's possible spot. Spoiler, we think Dallas was a better fit than Indiana.
• We also question DeJounte Murray and if he should return to the Spurs.
• We don't believe Mikal Bridges is on the block but do question if a change of scenery would help.
• A brief Warriors check in!
• A Victor Wembenyama check-in, and like most rookies he started out a bit rough. Unlike most rookies, a mere 40 games into the season he's playing star level. Watch out!
