Summary

How does it feel? We made it. We started an NBA show in the summer just as all the storylines ended and everyone else was taking vacations, but us? We went to the desert, we taped cold opens on the steps of Kaseya Center for when Damian Lillard was traded to Miami (but wasn't), and we investigated Joel Embiid’s wedding. But this is the last episode of Oddball before the 2023-24 NBA regular season tips off, and as of Tuesday, “nothing will be the same.” We had our mean NBA season preview, but today, Mo Dakhil and Zach Harper return to share their NBA League Pass side piece teams - the teams we watch late at night when our significant other team is being boring or taking a night off. After that, another Hollywood edition of HYPE ME UP! where Amin gives Kawhi Leonard the formula he needs to stay healthy all season long. Finally, Charlotte and Amin take a closer look and investigate the potentially staged social media event of Ben Simmons reacting to a fan's tattoo of him. Learn more about your ad choices.
