Chapter 1: What is discussed at the start of this section?
This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human. Hi, I'm Dr. Priyanka Wally. And I'm Hari Kundabolu. It's a new year, and on the podcast Health Stuff, we're resetting the way we talk about our health. Which means being honest about what we know, what we don't know, and how messy it can all be. I like to sleep in late and sleep early. Is there a chronotype for that, or am I just depressed?
Health stuff is about learning, laughing, and feeling a little less alone. Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
A new year doesn't ask us to become someone new. It invites us back home to ourselves. I'm Mike Della Rocha, host of Sacred Lessons, a space for men to pause, reflect, and heal. This year, we're talking honestly about mental health, relationships, and the patterns we're ready to release.
If you're looking for clarity, connection, and healthier ways to show up in your life, Sacred Lessons is here for you. Listen to Sacred Lessons with Mike Della Rocha on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
This is Dr. Jesse Mills, host of the Mailroom Podcast. Each January, men promise to get stronger, work harder, and fix what's broken. But what if the real work isn't physical at all? I sat down with psychologist Dr. Steve Poulter to unpack shame, anxiety, and the emotional pain men were never taught how to name.
Part of the way through the valley of despair is realizing this has happened, and you have to make a choice whether you're going to stay in it or move forward.
Our two-part conversation is available now. Listen to The Mailroom on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your favorite shows.
On June 11, 1998, a deputy from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department went missing. Hey, if they'll kill a cop and bury him, what are they going to do to me? What really happened to the missing deputy? Valley of Shadows, a new series from Pushkin Industries about crime and corruption in California's high desert.

Chapter 2: What are the key highlights from the Thunder vs. Spurs game?
I love it. He's all about the smoke, too. You know, I love it. It's great. It's fantastic. I hope, I hope, I pray they see each other in a postseason. Yes. He is so precise, man.
He's good.
He's very good. I wanted to ask you, now you're a foot shorter than Weminyama, but you are the tall guy in most leagues or runs that I play with you. That's true. is there some truth to the smaller guy being more of an issue, maybe the stout, stronger guy, than another tall guy playing you? What's your opinion on that? 100%. I hate a smaller guy guarding me. Dating back to Nelson.
Remember Nelson?
Oh, man.
That guy gave me problems. He was a physical guy. He was a physical guy. He could mess with my center of gravity. I couldn't lean on him and push him over. Same thing with Paolo on Thursday nights. There's just certain guys. They're smaller. They're stronger. I think referees give... those kind of players a little bit of leeway against a taller, skinnier guy like Wemby.
So, like I said, Chet was getting some buckets dropped on him by Wemby, and it just seems like it's harder to attack a smaller, stout guy like Ken Rich Williams in this game. We've seen Julius Randall had an effect on Wemby. The Suns did the same thing with Royce O'Neal guarding him. So, this does seem to be at least one of the tools you have to have in your toolbox going against the Spurs.
You've got to have a fire hydrant to go against a fire hose. You took the words literally right off my page. I was going to say it's more important to have a fire hydrant than a fire hose to put out a fire. That's a great point. It's incredible. But I saw you say fire hydrant for Julius Randall in the Substack Power Rankings the other day.
And I thought last night, I was like, I guess Chet's the fire hose. He is. In this weird metaphor we have going here. Okay, you need the fire hydrant. No doubt. This is the time of the year where we're looking for nicknames, I feel like. They start to get more and more creative. Like watching Luke Cornett and hearing the Shakespeare quote that he dropped, apparently, from the Sideline Reporter.

Chapter 3: What are the implications of Ja Morant's potential trade to Miami?
I think most agree with that with John Moran. I think it's going to happen in Memphis. So it's somewhere else. And he needs to, like, turn his career around here again. And I think he will. I do have faith in him still. Keep the main thing the main thing. That's what they always say in Miami.
And the question is, will their health staff be able to just bring that guy's knee body back to anywhere close to what it was? I mean, he shows it from time to time here this season, but they do believe in their world class conditioning staff.
Chapter 4: What is the latest update on Anthony Davis's injury status?
Yeah. So maybe it's that. Yep. Maybe it's that. Anthony Davis got a little update on him. He has opted against surgery on his injured left hand, refuting a Shams report from earlier in the day that the ailing big man would have a procedure and miss multiple months. But 80s hand was working good enough to fire a tweet or two to Shams. Get your facts right. Lies.
So look, but the point is 80 is not returning anytime soon. I mean, it's still going to take a long time. It's still going to be approximately six weeks, even without the surgery. So again, we've already talked a lot about this and whether he'll be moved still or not now and all that. But it's going to be a while. Yeah, six weeks to be re-evaluated. Yeah.
Especially when it comes to any re-evaluation, but especially when it comes to Anthony Davis, you think six weeks plus a re-evaluation. Whoa, we're talking the whole regular season. He still could be out. So it was interesting to see AD call out Shams.
Chapter 5: Which under-the-radar trade candidates are being discussed?
Boom. Lies. Y'all better stop listening to these lies on these apps.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
These apps are full of lies, my man. It is unfortunate. We all see lies. We see lies every day. Very true. I couldn't help but look at this other tweet and laugh. It says, Shams today, Anthony Davis needs hand surgery. Anthony Davis won't need hand surgery. Doctors have cut off Anthony Davis's hand. Doctors have not cut off Anthony Davis's hand.
Doctors have cut off Anthony Davis's uninjured hand by mistake. Anthony Davis isn't a real person. Jeremy Cohen, that was a good one.
They got me. Yeah, they got me.
I'm not a real person.

Chapter 6: How do the trade rumors affect the future of the NBA teams involved?
So yeah, do other teams want a guy that's being re-evaluated in six weeks? I think they still do. You still believe Anthony Davis is going to be traded here at the deadline. His hand is going to be traded. I'm guessing. Which team gets the hand and which team gets the rest of Anthony Davis? And which one would you rather want? The package is not going to be good. Which one would you want?
Okay, hypothetical. You take off both of Anthony Davis' hands. Very important to basketball. Would you rather have the hands or the rest of Anthony Davis? Give me body, no hands. I think he can still be an effective rim protector. Interesting. Not blocking shots, but deterring them.
Okay.
I disagree. All right. Any thoughts on this besides where we're going with it? He can still be traded for sure, but it's tough to figure out the team that can give up enough salary to get Anthony Davis on his large contract and stay afloat while he heals this six to eight weeks. Like that to me means the Hawks have to still be in the mix because Chris, that's Porzingis.
He doesn't play just like Anthony Davis doesn't play. Like, what are they missing out on? The Clippers, I think, are kind of in the same boat because they have so many guys. They could do like John Collins. Love to see him back in trade rumors. Brooke Lopez, Bogdan Bogdanovich, like guys who are in their rotation, but that they at least have replacements for while they wait for A.D.,
Then I would even throw in the Charlotte Hornets as a surprise team. They've got just so many random veterans. They've got the Mavericks 2027 pick, which would be huge for Dallas to get back. I don't know that AD would want to be sent to Charlotte and sign an extension there. That's the big question. But there are at least enough pieces in Charlotte to get it done.
Yeah, that's why I think Atlanta is still doable, because the main part would be Kristaps Porzingis going back to get the numbers there. He hasn't played a lot this season. I know you'd say the same thing about Anthony Davis, but Anthony Davis, at least you believe he'll play for most of it.
Add on to that a Luke Kennard plus the pick is what we used to say when Anthony Davis was not injured this season. And what they give up with that pick is the key part here. It doesn't necessarily have to be a really good pick. It could be the Cavs pick this season. There could be some, you know, whether it's 1-20 protected or something like that.
We're talking Kristaps, Kennard, and some sort of protected pick. I could see that happening. What you got? The guy with pots or the guy that's injured like 50 parts of his body over his career? I'm barely exaggerating with that, I don't think. He's hurt a lot of parts of his body. So which one? This is the operation game for sure. It's your starting center.
