Today's episode of the mismatch. Chris Vernon and I discussed the trade rumors of the week including some of my recent reports on what's floating out there in the NBA head of what's going to be a wild wild week for the NBA with trades the draft and then free agency. It's going to be nuts.

And then after that, Jay Kyle man and Jonathan Charx joined me and we talk in B a draft. We looked at contenders selecting late in the first round and the types of players that they could be looking for all that next.
