Michael and I talk about these little letdowns that keep spiraling into Pelicans defeats – and while Michael walks away more positive than expected, I end up a bit more negative. A bit of a change of pace for us, I think! We talk about the importance of the next 6 games to the trade […]

Trading Jrue. That’s pretty much what Michael and I talk about all pod long. What teams are buyers and sellers, which ones make sense to trade Jrue too, what sort of packages you can get back, etc etc. We do touch on a few other guys, but it’s mostly the Jrue Show. Want it on […]

The way Hield is playing at Summer League should help set expectations
Shades of Eric Gordon! Dude can’t shoot! Dell’s got himself a lemon again! He’s up against Summer leaguers and still isn’t getting to the rim! It’s true. Summer League Hield hasn’t been pretty.
