On this week’s Drive & Kick podcast, Paul Flannery and John Gonzalez talked about election reactions throughout the NBA and the league’s role in the discourse. This was also the theme of the Sunday Shootaround.
Also on the pod:
- Fake trade rumors!
- So yeah, that Klay Thompson rumor was bogus, but we talked about the idea of whether the Warriors should think about making a trade anyway.
- A brief discourse on the weird habit of overvaluing players in our own backyard.
- Gonz has questions about teams and Flanns has answers on a few. (Not the Magic though. Nobody can figure out the Magic.)
- Are the Hornets for real? Does Pau Gasol fit with the Spurs? Is the Clippers bench ... good? We discuss.
- Plus my (Paul’s) favorite Brandon Bass story.
