Hey everyone, welcome into another edition of the WogePod.

A great visit here with ESPN's Brian Windhorst.

We get deep into talk about tampering salary cap circumvention.

And the NBA's attempt here to try and change the way business has done

in NBA free agency and we get into what that may all look like moving forward for the

league. Here's my visit with Brian Winhurst. Welcome into Brian Windhorst, the host of the Hoop Collective podcast on ESPN and the author of the New York Times bestseller, LeBron Inc.

Brian, good morning.

How are you?

Hi, Woj.

How is your jet lag from China? Boy, no joke.

No, no. Yeah, a little bit. You know, this is the thing, like, unless you've spent time in Asia,

I don't think you can understand what it means to come back. And I bring this up every year,

and it doesn't always hold true, but it holds true quite a bit, that the teams that come

back from Asia have a little bit of a penalty that they have to pay for the preseason.

It's not as bad from Europe.

And this year, I think for the first time ever, we have six teams going to Asia.

You know, typically, you know, there's always two teams that go to China. Then there's usually

two teams that go to Europe. And for a while, like when they're, like, I went to Rio de Janeiro

before the Olympics, they always send a team or two. So, you know, the Europe thing is

not as bad. Well, this year, the Olympics next year in Tokyo. So the rockets and raptors are going to

Tokyo. And then the China trip, which is normal. And it's a high profile one this year,

Lakers and Nets. And then for the first time ever, we have two teams going to India, which is he can even harder because you're even further out of whack in terms of the time difference.
