today on the ringer NBA show, we are going to be talking about Darryl Mori going to the

0:04.7

Philadelphia 76ers. We're going to talk about the Houston rocket hiring a new head coach

0:10.2

and we're going to have a lot of draft talk with both J Kyle man and Jonathan Charcs who

0:14.8

are joining the mismatch this week. But before we get to anything, there was big news that

0:18.6

broke this morning where Steve Nash, who was hired by the Brooklyn net, is bringing

0:24.1

along his old, old coach to sit next to him on the bench. Mike Dantonie, we wondered
