After getting John’s front office perspective on the Nate Bjorkgren situation in Indiana, we discuss Nikola Jokic. John anointed him the best player in the NBA, Nate has him substantially behind LeBron, Kawhi, Steph, and others. Also, a discussion of the other players with the most to prove in the playoffs, plus the teams we project will NOT make the playoffs, as we make our final predictions for the playoff field.
