Summary

Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) is joined by Brendon Kleen (@Locked On Suns) to discuss Kevin Durant being traded to the Phoenix Suns and how that changes A LOT for the Suns moving forward. Are the Suns now favorites in the West after adding Durant? How important was it to keep Deandre Ayton out of the KD trade? How much about the Suns has to change to incorporate Durant on the fly midseason? Who projects to be the 5th starter next to Chris Paul, Devin Booker, Durant and Ayton? Then, Nick Angstadt (@Locked On Mavs) stops by to talk about Kyrie Irving as a Dallas Maverick and his much anticipated debut alongside Luka Doncic and why Dallas didn't make any other moves ahead of the NBA Trade Deadline. How has Kyrie changed this Mavericks team? What stood out in Luka & Kyrie's Mavs debut? Were the Mavs trying to trade Christian Wood and Tim Hardaway Jr. and, if so, why didn't they get moved? Who are some names on the buyout market that could be headed to Dallas? Lastly, Darian Vaziri (@Locked On Clippers) jumps in to evaluate the LA Clippers moves ahead of the NBA Trade Deadline, adding Eric Gordon, Mason Plumlee and Bones Hyland, and whether or not those reinforcements are enough help for Kawhi Leonard and Paul George in a now STACKED Western Conference. Was trading John Wall, Reggie Jackson and Luke Kennard the right move for LAC? Which one of Gordon, Plumlee or Hyland is the most important addition? Kawhi and PG have only played 26 games together this season, is that enough? What needs to happen for the Clippers to make a deep postseason run? #Suns #Mavericks #Clippers Subscribe to the Locked On NBA YouTube Channel: Locked On NBA Follow/Subscribe/Listen Anywhere: linktr.ee/LockedOnNBA Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers Built Bar – Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
