We got real nerdy on this week’s episode of the WHAT podcast and invited Brit Robotista (@britrobotista) onto the pod to go over the basics of the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) between the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) and the NBA league owners. She helped us understand why it exists, what it holds, what happened in the summer of ‘16, and how we might prepare ourselves to understand what options will be on the table the next time Damian Lillard is up for a new contract.

Get out your pencils and your legal pads and take some notes (or not, you can relax with a glass of wine and that’s fine too), we’re diving into some really important stuff, with a wonderful tour guide to help us understand, WHAT is the deal with the CBA?
