We discussed how this could be the slowest NBA trade deadline in recent memory due to a number of factors, Daryl Morey and the Sixers are still driving Trill insane but at least the arena is staying in South Philly (possibly a WNBA team on the way as well?) and finally the rise of Cooper Flagg and which NBA teams need him the most in this upcoming draft. Enjoy.

The Sixers season just keeps getting worse. This time Maxey confronts Embiid after the blowout loss to the Miami Heat. We talked about whether this season is even worth saving for them, whether they can pivot if it is not and where we expect them to end up by the end of the year. Also where did this leak come from? Next we have fresh Nets Trade Slop! We dove into their roster to talk about where players like Cam Johnson, Dorian Finney Smith, Nic Claxton, Cam Thomas and Dennis Schroder could end up when the team blows it up before the trade deadline.
