Better future: Kings or Bulls? + Mavs move on

I would lean towards no right now. I mean, you know, just kind of the vibes I'm picking up is... I don't know that Patrick Dubon is happy right now, but I just don't see him making a change at GM right now. I think... You know, Nico, Kyrie Irving and Anthony Davis, those guys are all kind of aligned. I mean, Anthony Davis has two years plus a player option remaining on his deal after this season.

Better future: Kings or Bulls? + Mavs move on

Nico Harrison told us yesterday he's got three years left in his deal. And Kyrie Irving has a player option this summer. Sham Sharani said before the game, hey, there's a chance that Kyrie Irving signs a three year deal with the Mavericks. I mean, I would just wouldn't be surprised if you see all three of those guys kind of aligned for, you know, a two, three year window coming up here.

Gritty Warriors win play-in + Orlando moves on

Well, to start, to me, they just needed to – I mean, this team, basically, when they make threes, they look like they could win a championship.

I mean, I think it starts and stops with Steph. Like, he's such a high-variance player, right? This thing can go as skyrocket as you want it to go with Steph. You know what I'm saying?

You can get them.
