Best Of The Fan Midday Show - Friday 7/14/23

(00:00-18:27) – Brenden Nunes, a reporter for the Sacramento Kings, joins the show to talk about who won the Tyrese Haliburton/Domantas Sabonis trade. Then, they talk about the development of Domas, DeAaron Fox and Keegan Murray. After that, it’s the Duarte trade. How will he fit in with Sacramento? What will his chemistry with Sabonis mean for the team moving forward?  (18:28-43:41) – Mat Issa, an NBA writer for SB Nation, joins the program to talk about the Pacers’ offseason, starting with Tyrese Haliburton who Issa called the “Midwest Magic Johnson”. What can the Blue and Gold realistically accomplish this year and what do they need to accomplish over the life of Haliburton’s contract? Then, the conversation shifts to include the entire NBA as they look at the Damien Lillard situation in Portland. What about Boston? How will their offseason moves pan out and where do the Celtics rank among the Eastern Conference? Back to the Pacers, what will Bruce Brown bring to the team? What will Andrew Nembhard develop into this year?  (43:42-1:11:53) – Kevin Bowen of Kevin & Query on The Fan calls in to talk about how the Saquon Barkley situation affects Jonathan Taylor and the Colts. Then, what does Shaq Leonard need to prove going into this season? What can Alec Pierce do to become a focal point in this offense and help the career trajectory of Anthony Richardson. Then, they look at the QB competition coming up in training camp. Should the team get Richardson his reps but risk a worse record, or let Gardner Minshew play and potentially win a couple extra games? Bowen reminded up that no Colts fan is upset with a 3-13 1998 season with rookie Peyton Manning setting both touchdown and interception records. Support the show: https://1075thefan.com/query-and-company/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
