About this episode

Jason answers mailbag questions about his NBA player rankings including why he has Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry ranked higher than New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson and why he would have Indiana Pacers playmaker Tyrese Haliburton ahead of Brunson if he were healthy. He also discusses Dallas Wings rookie Paige Bueckers compared to Indiana Fever sophomore Caitlin Clark, why the Miami Heat closed games with Dwyane Wade and LeBron James together despite the analytics showing the team was better with D-Wade off the floor, how he got into sports media, whether LeBron James or Michael Jordan is a better shooter, and more.
