Summary

On today’s episode, Vinnie Goodwill of Yahoo Sports joins Bomani Jones to discuss all things NBA. But before they dive into basketball, they give props to Jared Goff who is making fans in Detroit very happy despite not being apart of the MVP discussion. (0:55) They move onto the hardwood, where they try to figure out a solution to make fans care about the regular season and discuss why maybe the way the league is covered actually matters. (8:38) After talking about if Shai Gilgeous-Alexander should be the MVP, they debate if there has ever been an egregious winner of the award. LeBron may not be the same player he once was, but he is still impressing Bomani and Vinnie while playing at 40 years old. (19:52) Then they move onto the biggest topic currently in the NBA - Jimmy Butler and his trade demands to get out of Miami. (31:02) The show rounds out with a discussion centered around the Knicks after acquiring Karl Anthony-Towns and how important he has been for them. (41:04) . . .
