The NBA season is like a movie. From beginning to end, there's good guys and bad guys, love stories and breakups, heroes and villains. And by all measures, the 2022-23 season has been a box office hit.
And on today's episode, one of the preeminent writers, speakers, and thinkers about the NBA joins Ariel to break down some of the season's most tantalizing stories, discussing things like:
Another tight MVP race and why the NBA MVP debate attracts so much attention
If the Sacramento Kings, the underdog of the season, will make noise in the postseason
Isola's time covering the whole Kyrie Irving mess in Brooklyn, and if Irving is to blame for the Mavericks' recent struggles
Kevin Durant's fit in Phoenix
Whether this season marks the end of the road of Damian Lillard's tenure in Portland
If Jaylen Brown is on his way out of Boston after this season
Plus, the guys talk about the current NBA media landscape, if Isola ever experiences burnout covering the NBA, and much, much more.
