Episode description
Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) is joined by Doug Norrie (@Locked On Nets) to discuss the much anticipated Brooklyn Nets media and how confident fans should be in Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and Ben Simmons moving forward. How should Nets fans feel about Durant's commitment level to the team? Was it a good sign to see Kyrie speaking so openly about Brooklyn's problems? Is Simmons in a good spot mentally? Where are guys like TJ Warren, Seth Curry, and Joe Harris at with their injury timetables?
Then, Nick Angstadt (@Locked On Mavericks) swings by to discuss the media day news that surprised fans AND Christian Wood himself, that he would be serving as the Dallas Mavericks sixth man this upcoming season + other media day standouts. Is bringing Wood off the bench the right move by Jason Kidd? What does Wood need to do to move into the starting lineup? Should the Mavs be concerned they don't have a third ballhandler after Luka and Spencer Dinwiddie? Is everyone healthy going into preseason?
Lastly, Jackson Gatlin (@Locked On Rockets) discusses the Houston Rockets impressive preseason performance against the San Antonio Spurs, highlighting standout players and key differences between this year's team and last year's + the impact of new contract for backup center Bruno Fernando. What was different about Jabari Smith Jr.'s offensive play now compared to Summer League? How impactful was Tari Eason defensively? What does Bruno Fernando bring to this Rockets team?
