Episode description

Episode 396 of the "Sports Illustrated Media Podcast" hosted by Jimmy Traina features an interview with ESPN NBA reporter Brian Windhorst.

Windhorst talks about his experience of going viral after a clip of him speculating about a possible Utah Jazz trade on "First Take" went viral. Did he know Rudy Gobert was going to be traded when he talked about Utah's "strange" trade of Royce O'Neale? Did producers say anything to him during his lengthy segment? What was his reaction when Gobert did get traded? Did he have a favorite meme?

Windhorst also discusses his relationship with LeBron James, the one question he'd like to ask LeBron, the one question he'd like to ask Kevin Durant, whether he feels competitive with Adrian Wojnarowski and Shams Charania and much more.

Following Windhorst, is the weekly "Traina Thoughts" segment with Sal Licata from WFAN radio and SNY TV in New York. Jimmy and Sal discuss Jimmy's hatred of the hot dog eating contest, college realignment in college football, Kevin Durant's trade request and Jimmy's day trying New Haven, Connecticut's very overrated pizza
