About this episode

Jason Timpf reacts to the best quotes to come out of NBA Media Day. Can Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors count on Draymond Green to be ready to go after a tumultuous 2023-2024 season? Is it time to buy into LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and the Los Angeles Lakers as reports circulate that JJ Redick has the team more organized and upbeat than ever? Will Russell Westbrook change his game to help Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets return to championship form or continue to have high highs but lower lows in the later stages of his career? Jason also touches on the biggest media day stories from the 76ers, Celtics, Bucks, Clippers, and Spurs before continuing his NBA power rankings with Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves.
