Hawks Have the Best Backcourt in the East, Draymond is Right About KD & NBA Free Agency Primer

On today's episode, Jason and Producer Rob G kick things off by sharing their thoughts on Draymond Green's assertion that the Golden State Warriors never would have won their titles in 2017 and 2018 without Kevin Durant. As crazy as it sounds, Draymond is right! Those Cleveland Cavaliers led by LeBron James and Kyrie Irving were arguably the best team in NBA history not to win a championship. Later, J-Mac explains why he believes the Atlanta Hawks hit a home run with their acquisition of All-Star point guard Dejounte Murray. Trae Young and Murray are easily the top backcourt in the Eastern Conference, and should make the Hawks legitimate title contenders. Finally, the guys preview the start of NBA free agency by discussing which players might change teams over the next few days. Will Jalen Brunson be enough to make the New York Knicks relevant again? Might the Los Angeles Lakers be able to rehabilitate a Mo Bamba's career the same way they did for Malik Monk? Would the addition of PJ Tucker vault the Philadelphia 76ers to the top of the Eastern Conference? We have the answers to all those questions - and much more!
