NBA 2023 SEASON PREVIEW - HOW TO FIX THE NBA, CONTENDERS, WHAT’S A PURE SCORER & RESPECT D-WADE
Episode 23, Oct 19, 2023, 01:00 PM
The NBA is back! In this episode, I discuss some of the changes that have happened in the offseason with the players and the league, and give you thoughts on a number of topics for the upcoming season.
Welcome back to Sports & The Real Sh*t.
This is the best time of the year for sports fans. Football is in full swing, baseball playoffs are finally here, and the NBA is back!
In this episode, I take a quick break from talking football to focus on the upcoming NBA season. A lot went down in the offseason. Big-time players switched teams in hopes of winning a championship, the NBA is trying to increase fan interest in the regular season by passing new rules and creating a whole new tournament, and we learned that the best player in the world, Nikola Jokic, doesn't care much for basketball.
There are some serious storylines that will be played out this season - can KD lead a stacked Suns team to a championship? How does Dame look in the co-star role? Do the Nuggets have enough to repeat? Can Lebron and the Lakers make a serious run? And can Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown take the next step to become the best duo since Jordan and Pippen like I've been waiting for them to be?
Buckle up! It's going to be a wild ride!
Key points from this episode:
2:23 - Why the NBA is behind the NFL in TV ratings and what the NBA can do to fix that?
31:35 - Who are the real championship contenders and how Damian Lillard being on the Bucks can shake things up with the top 10 greatest NBA players all-time list?
43:34 - What is the difference between a pure scorer and a great scorer? Who are the best pure scorers of all-time and who are the best basketball players right now?
1:06:39 - Why the NBA needs to create the Scottie Pippen award?
1:09:56 - Put some respect on Dwyane Wade's name
