Summary
Andrew Schlecht and Alex Speers bring you another episode of the Saturday Slam and Jam. On today's show they discuss the NBA buyout market and if it really is a small market vs. big market issue. They dive into the top 5 buyout players of the last 10 years, and answer the question of if it is a small market problem.
Alex then asks the questions, "Are the Denver Nuggets title contenders?" With the addition of Aaron Gordon, does it put the Nuggets over the top? Are there different levels of contenders? We answer all that and more about the Nuggets.
Then Tony Jones of the Athletic joins to help us answer all our questions about the Utah Jazz, including if they can win the title this season. Then we play our game show, Andrew vs. the Beat where Alex quizzes and Andrew and Tony on questions about the Jazz.
Thanks for listening and tune in to see who the Wheel of Fandom picks next!
