In this episode of Hold My Banner, we start with a fun debate between George Balekji and Ountae Campbell. Who’s got the better rap skills: Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown? Tune in as we break down their musical prowess and decide who takes the crown.

Next, we’ll analyze whether the 76ers' Big 3 of Joel Embiid, Paul George, and Tyrese Maxey are truly the real deal. We’ll discuss if this trio has the potential to make a significant impact this season.

Then, we dive into the San Antonio Spurs' offseason moves and what they mean for their upcoming season. We’ll explore whether Chris Paul and Harrison Barnes will make a difference in the win column and if Victor Wembanyama could be a strong MVP contender if the Spurs finish in the top 4 of the Western Conference.
