This week, Jesse and Ryan are joined by their first in-studio guest, Mason, to break down the chaos surrounding the Hornets at the trade deadline. The Mark Williams trade to the Lakers was rescinded, leaving major questions about his future and what this means for Charlotte’s roster. The guys discuss how the Hornets are handling the fallout, the appeal process, and whether the NBA needs a new system for trade physicals.

They also dive into Jusuf Nurkić’s arrival, the loss of Cody Martin, and the Hornets’ recent performances, including a tough stretch of games. Plus, they react to LaMelo Ball’s All-Star snub, the rise of Musa Diabaté, and why Seth Curry needs to play more minutes.

And of course, they wrap up with the Eric Collins Call of the Week, featuring a Miles Bridges game-winner that had the Hive roaring.
