We're a couple of days away from the NBA trade deadline, and things
are heating up. Could James Harden (and Darius Garland) be on the
move? The guys discuss the latest there, as well as give their initial
thoughts on the three-team trade involving the Cavs, Kings, and Bulls.
From there, the guys discuss the biggest (or most interesting)
defensive trends and tactics across the league. Among the things
brought up: a rise of full-court pressure, increased willingness to
send help (or switch!) from the strong side corner, and funky zone
defenses from teams like the Lakers and Timberwolves
Finally, they close by recapping the weekend slate of Unrivaled
games, including a historic outing in Philadelphia. They discuss the record-breaking attendance and what it means, salute the shot making
of Marina Mabrey, and bounce around with some general team thoughts.

In a jam-packed Kevin O’Connor show, KOC discusses the first trade of the deadline week and what it means for Keon Ellis, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Sacramento Kings. Then, he discusses updates in the Ja Morant trade market: is there a new interest in him coming out of Chicago?

Next, Kyle Neubeck joins to talk Sixers: what’s up with the Paul George suspension? Is Joel Embiid back? Is a trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo without giving up VJ Edgecombe a possibility?

Later, KOC chats All-Star reserves before being joined by Kirk Henderson. They look back at the Luka Doncic to Los Angeles trade one year later, marvel at Cooper Flagg’s 2-game tear and ask the question: will Anthony Davis be traded this season?

Corey Tulaba then joins the pod for this week’s Draft Class to chat AJ Dybantsa and Darryn Peterson, the future of Richie Saunders and the biggest college games to watch for this weekend.

We have a fun episode of The Dunker Spot coming your way! 
Giannis Antetokounmpo is reportedly "ready for a new home" -- which opens a host of questions. Should the Bucks move him? If so, how soon,
and who makes sense for him? Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones Jr. discuss it all.

From there, the guys talk about the very-good-but-kinda-flawed Houston Rockets. From the budding Kevin Durant-Alperen Sengun two-man game, to the highs and lows of the Amen Thompson experience, to the importance of role guys like Reed Sheppard and Jabari Smith.

Finally, they close by previewing the upcoming slate of Unrivaled games. Friday's slate will be played in Philadelphia, the first time Unrivaled has taken its show on the road! The guys talk about those matchups, as well as some interesting lineup and advanced data through
the early portion of the season.
