After an activity-filled 48 hours, The Box Out for its regular weekly episode.
James Harden was introduced on Friday as the newest member of the Brooklyn Nets. The perennial All-Star comes to Brooklyn after a bad breakup in Houston, and while everyone is saying the right things, there are still a ton of questions concerning this move for the Nets. Kyrie Irving will be returning from his self-imposed exile this weekend, but there is a lot we still don't know about his absence or his love for basketball. Will this move blow up in the face of general manager Sean Marks?
This week saw nine games postponed due to COVID-19 tests and contact tracing. The NBA put stricter guidelines in place as many believe that much of the blame for these new issues falls on players. The guys will discuss whether it is time for the NBA to look at if the season should take a pause.
Those stories and more, including whether the 76ers dodged a bullet in not trading for James Harden, on an all-new episode of The Box Out.
It's time for an emergency podcast from the guys of The Box Out. And this time it's for an important story that happened on Wednesday.
James Harden was traded to the Nets in a blockbuster four-team trade on Wednesday afternoon. The Nets parted with Crais LeVert, Jarrett Allen, Taurean Prince, and Rodions Kurucs as Brooklyn moved to win mode this season. The trade as Kyrie Irving continues his self-imposed exile from the Nets that has lasted for four games.
What does this trade mean for the Nets in the future? Did Brooklyn trade a future star in LeVert? Can Steve Nash handle what the Nets became on Wednesday?
All these questions will be answered on a new LIVE emergency edition of The Box Out with Jason and Kahlil.
The Box Out returns as the show celebrates four years on the air this week on a special Friday edition of the podcast.
We have our first issue for the Brooklyn Nets, and of course, it includes Kyrie Irving. Before Thursday's game against the 76ers, Irving was announced as out due to personal reasons. It later was revealed that the star guard did not want to play last night, so he didn't play. Head coach Steve Nash didn't even know that Irving wasn't going to play until 90 minutes before game time. Is this the beginning of a problem or just something small?
Just a few miles away, the Knicks is starting to look like a team after years of floundering. At 5-3, New York is playing hard, playing defense and playing to win. Julius Randle looks like an All-Star, and Austin Rivers looks like the guard they have been searching for over the last few seasons. Could the Knicks make the playoffs this year?
Those stories and more, including our weekly James Harden Watch segment on a new episode of The Box Out.
The Box Out returns to the airwaves for the final show in 2020 for Jason and Kahlil.
The Nets have dropped two in a row after impressive wins over Golden State and Boston on Christmas. Spencer Dinwiddie suffered a partially torn ACL and will miss time, which shortens a deep, but fragile bench. Are the Nets still the team to beat in the Eastern Conference?
James Harden Trade Watch is underway as the Houston Rockets are 0-2 and had a game postponed due reportedly to Harden and others not being responsible, causing the team to miss their opener against Portland. According to reports, Harden has expanded his trade partners list to include more teams, but the asking price will be steep. How long will it take for Houston to pull the trigger on the trade? Who will make a move to pick up a perennial NBA All-Star?
Those topics and more, including the up and down Knicks and college basketball continuing to play during a significant COVID breakout around the country. Tune into the final Box Out pod of 2020.
We are 48 hours away from the start of the NBA season as The Box Out begins its fifth season on the eve of a new beginning for the NBA and the podcast.
While Jason and Kahlil admitted that the preseason did not mean much last week, the Knicks showed some heart and skill as the young players got much playing time against Cleveland. As the season begins, the team's expectations are not high, but New York will depend on names like Barrett, Obi, and Quickley to develop for the future. What should Knicks fans expect this season?
The Nets have high expectations in the other borough this season as Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving have looked good in Brooklyn's exhibition games. Kyrie even spoke to the media earlier last week after saying he would not. The question is this for Brooklyn: Can the Nets resist the urge to trade away young assets in exchange to go for the title?
The guys will look at all the big stories heading into the season, including will the Lakers be as dominant as everyone assumes and who will come out of the Eastern Conference. Check out a new episode of The Box Out….and Happy Holidays!!!

As Kyrie Irving continues his media blackout, The Box Out with Jason and Kahlil returns to the airwaves in a special Sunday edition.
Kyrie Irving was the story of the week as he continues shunning the media and continually shooting shots at LeBron James. After saying that the press were pawns, the media replied with an uproar as the point guard and the Nets were fined for Irving refusing to talk to the media. How much longer will Brooklyn tolerate this, and is Kyrie a trade candidate now?
Duke announced that they would cancel their remaining non-conference games out of caution for COVID-19. As the college sports world deals with cancellations, postponements, and schedule changes, some believe that the NCAA should cancel the rest of the season. What should happen next with the college basketball season?

We are just under three weeks before the NBA returns to home arenas (without fans) for a 72-game season. In preseason COVID-19 testing, 48 positive tests were among the 546 tests that were done. For this season, at this point, there is no plan to do a bubble, so it will be up to teams and players to stay safe this season. Is it possible to get through a whole NBA season without a case?
As we move closer to the season, the Knicks and Nets roster seems to be set as both teams have made their deals and moves towards the season. Which team had a better offseason? Jason and Kahlil will discuss.
Those topics and more, including the blockbuster trade between the Wizards and Rockets and whether the NCAA is thinking more about money than safety, all on a new episode of The Box Out.
The Box Out is back for its third episode in a week in what has been a busy time in the NBA.
After Wednesday’s NBA Draft, Friday brought us the beginning of free agency. Many moves have been, but the Knicks have been somewhat quiet thus far. While being linked to Gordon Hayward and Jeff Teague, New York picked up Nerlens Noel and re-signed Efrid Payton. While the team still has time to pick up players, it has not been a good showing for the Knicks. Where should they go in the coming week?
The last 72 hours in the NBA have been crazy, with many players changing teams. Gordon Hayward moving to Charlotte, Montrezl Harrell going to the Lakers, and Danilo Gallinari going to Atlanta. Add in Fred Van Vleet staying in Toronto and Donovan Mitchell signing a max deal with Utah, and the landscape of the NBA is changing, heading into an exciting season. Jason and Kahlil will discuss which moves surprised them and whether these deals make any team a favorite to win the title.

This year’s draft has no drama shortage as there is no clear-cut number one overall pick. The intrigue at the top will affect the New York Knicks, who sit at the miserable number eight spot. Who will the Knicks draft? Who should the Knicks draft?
More came out of the Knicks’ Universe as two players have been linked with New York through trades. Chris Paul, stuck in OKC’s rebuild, and Russell Westbrook are rumored as targets for the Knicks.

Coming into Thursday, Portland is holding down the eighth seed in the Western Conference. After the Blazers, three teams sit just a 0.5 game behind them, but remember...the ninth-place squad, if they fall less than four games behind eight, goes into a play-in tournament with the team. There could even be tie-breakers to determine seed, which could add even more intrigue to this. Jason and Kahlil will discuss the possibilities and preview the playoff matchups.

For the Liberty, their WNBA bubble experience has started awful as they lost star Kia Nurse in their opener and then lost rookie Sabrina Ionescu with a significant ankle sprain.

Since the finale of the doc on Sunday, many have proclaimed their displeasure over it. Horace Grant, a member of the first three Bulls championships, spoke about how he was portrayed in the film. According to reports, Scottie Pippen is unhappy about the way he came off during the doc as Michael Jordan is public enemy number one to some. Is there fire to smoke that has erupted since Sunday?
The NBA may be close to returning... kind of. According to Adrian Adrian Wojnarowski, many are waiting for commissioner Adam Silver to give the word for everyone to return to their playing cities. Will this season continue?
All those topics and more, including Jason and Kahlil’s list of their top five players of the 1990s, on the latest episode of The Box Out.
After a hiatus, The Box Out returns with a special late-night edition as Kahlil and Jason rejoin you on the heels of the finale of The Last Dance.
Over the last five weeks, ESPN has shown one of the best documentaries in sports history following the Chicago Bulls' 1997-1998 team. The doc, which jumps throughout Michael Jordan's career, highlights the Bulls' final championship season as the following year saw a mass exodus and fire sale of the championship parts. Jordan was a focal point of the documentary and was as open and honest as he has ever been shown.
The guys will examine the ten-part series and explore many of the questions and topics that were raised. What better way for The Box Out to return than to come after one of the most-watched shows in ESPN history.
Join us on an all-new episode of The Box Out!
The Box Out returns for a late-night edition of the show (I mean it’s 9 pm, so it’s not that late) on Wednesday.
In big news, the NCAA announced that the first and second rounds of the NCAA Tournament would be played without fans. Due to the Coronavirus, only essential personnel and limited family members will be in attendance for the games, which begin next week. The Warriors and Nets will play in front of empty seats on Thursday night in San Francisco while all professional sports leagues have banned locker room access. What’s next for sport in the United States due to the Coronavirus?
On Saturday morning, the Nets announced that the team and head coach Kenny Atkinson mutually agreed to part ways. Atkinson, who led the Nets back to the playoffs last season, leaves as rumors swirl about the reasons he was let go. Many believe that veterans like Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant, and DeAndre Jordan had a hand in the firing. Who is to blame for the departure of Kenny Atkinson from Brooklyn?
All that and more, including previewing the conference tournaments Jason and Kahlil are covering this weekend, on the latest episode of The Box Out.
The Box Out with Kahlil and Jason comes to you on a Friday night as we begin the stretch run to the NBA Playoffs and March Madness.
The Knicks announced Leon Rose as the new team president but also managed to alienate one of their biggest fans. Spike Lee told the story of the team kicking him out of MSG and treating him differently than they have over the years. Lee even went on ESPN’s First Take to discuss the incident. The Knicks denied Lee’s claims, but it does not look good. After announcing a move for the positive, how do the Knicks continue to be a laughingstock?
The Lakers and the Clippers continue to load up for a possible playoff showdown during the tail end of the season. The Lakers signed Dion Waiters this week, while the Clippers have reportedly signed Joakim Noah. All of these moves are for the postseason as the teams look to the early summer months. At this point in the season, who is the better team? Who would win a seven-game series?
Those topics and more, including a discussion on the helter-skelter Nets, on the latest episode of The Box Out.
The Box Out returns as Jason and Kahlil bring the party on a Friday night.
The Nets have lost three of their last four games since the All-Star break and after the announcement of Kyrie Irving missing the rest of the season. Defensive lapses, bad shots, and just overall schizophrenic play are putting Brooklyn at risk of falling out of the playoffs. What is the problem with the Nets as the regular-season rapidly comes to an end?
The 76ers, who already lost Ben Simmons, lost Joel Embiid with an injured shoulder. The injury comes as Philadelphia heads west with games against the Clippers and the Lakers coming up. Is this an omen for the Sixers’ season? Is Brett Brown’s days numbered in The City of Brotherly Love?
All those topics and a lot more, including a dreadful Knicks update, on a Friday night LIVE episode of The Box Out.
A new episode of The Box Out is coming at you in a special Sunday night edition of the podcast.
Last Sunday’s NBA All-Star Game drew 7.3 million viewers, which was an 8 percent increase from the 2019 edition of the game. The rating peaked during the untimed fourth quarter, where it became more of a game and less of an exhibition. The Elam Ending that the NBA employed for the game drew rave reviews and now has people thinking that the NBA should incorporate this into regular-season games. Is this something that the NBA should look into?
Since the guys have been gone, the Knicks continue being the Knicks. Steve Mills was fired, they do not have a president and supposed “consultant” Steve Stoute went on ESPN’ First Take and made a fool of himself. Can the Knicks get out of their way?
All that and more, including the end of the line for Kyrie Irving, on a new episode of The Box Out.
The Box Out returns after the birth of Kahlil’s daughter and many other significant events that occurred during the pod’s time off.
The death of Kobe Bryant is still being dealt with by family, friends, and fans around the world. Bryant, his daughter, and seven others perished in a helicopter crash in California. It continues to be one of the most shocking stories in sports history. What is Kobe’s legacy? How is he being remembered?
In things not as important, the Knicks fired president Steve Mills last week as the team is beginning to hit a stride. Reports have agent Leon Rose in the driver’s seat to take the job, which is probably the worst idea in recent history for the team. What the hell is going on at The Garden?
All that and more, including an NBA trade deadline review, on the latest episode of The Box Out!
The Box Out returns with a Sunday night edition of the podcast.
Kyrie Irving returned to the Nets lineup on Sunday as Brooklyn takes on the Hawks. Irving has been out the last 26 games with a shoulder injury, and in that time, the Nets went 13-13. Spencer Dinwiddie was the linchpin of the team’s early success, but things went downhill with the Nets losing seven of their eight games. What kind of team is Brooklyn? Is Kenny Atkinson’s job in jeopardy?
For the Knicks, it is the same old, same old. They lose, but they are playing hard under interim head coach Mike Miller. There has still been no indication as to whether Miller is the man for the remainder of the season. Should New York take a hard look at Miller for the permanent post?
All that and more in the latest episode of The Box Out
The Box Out returns with a new episode as Jason and Kahlil are in the holiday spirit.
Since the firing of coach David Fizdale, the Knicks are 3-5 under interim coach Mike Miller. Offensively, New York seems to be in sync, but the defense still looks porous. Since Fiz’s firing, many coaches around the league have commented on how they believe that he was the fall guy for an organization ran in dysfunction. Was Fizdale the fall guy for the Knicks? What coach would even want this job?
The NBA has reportedly discussed having a prize of $1 million per player for the winning team of the in-season tournament idea that has been thrown around. With astronomical salaries that players make today, is an extra $1 million enough of carrot for players?
All that and more, including Brooklyn continuing to shine without Kyrie Irving on an all-new episode of The Box Out.
The event that we have been waiting for happened as The Box Out returns on a Sunday.
The Knicks finally relieved David Fizdale on his duties as head coach on Friday, naming Mike Miller (no not that one) as interim head coach. At 4-19, New York is a dumpster fire once again, as no one wants to play or coach this team. Where does the franchise turn for a new coach? Is Fiz dale really to blame for the last season and a half?
For the Nets, they keep rolling along without Kyrie Irving. They have won two in a row and have won eight of their last 12 games without the dynamic guard. Spencer Dinwiddie is playing at a high level once again as Brooklyn is moving up the Eastern Conference. Should the Nets explore a trade for Irving?
All that and more, including Jason and Kahlil discussing all the latest league news, on a new episode of The Box Out!
The Box Out is LIVE for a Sunday edition of the best basketball podcast in the universe.
Since the impromptu cluster that was the Steve Mills press conference, the Knicks have gone 2-4 with improved effort, but not many wins to show for it. The clock is running on David Fizdale’s tenure with New York as all eyes are on the next move the franchise makes. Where does the team go from here?
Kyrie Irving has missed multiple games for the Nets with more absences coming. But oddly enough, the Nets are surging going 3-1 in his absence. Going into a rivalry game against the Knicks on Sunday, the Nets are winning the same way they won last season by playing team basketball. Do the Nets need Kyrie Irving?
The NBA is mulling some changes for the league, including shortening the regular season, playoff reseeding, and an in-season tournament. Will this change anything about the league and how popular it already is?
All that and more on a new episode of The Box Out!
A new episode of The Box Out comes to you for a special Sunday night edition of the podcast.
Well, it only took a month before drama engulfed the Knicks. This past week saw the team president come out and give a press conference (which never happens) and throw head coach David Fizdale under the bus for New York's slow start. The problem: it was Mills and GM Scott Perry who gave Fizdale the roster he's coaching. How long does Fizdale have until he is fired? Who is to blame for the Knicks' terrible start?
While the Knicks has Real Housewives drama around it, the Nets are trying to catch up with their drama. Kyrie Irving has impressed early in the season, but things are starting to turn a bit. Irving missed the last game, a nationally televised matchup, and Brooklyn seems off over the previous few games. What happens to the Nets and Kyrie going forward? Are we soon to get a "moody" Irving?
Those topics and more, including Jason and Kahlil going around the NBA and a college basketball check-in, on a brand new episode of The Box Out.
The Box Out returns as the show moves every week as we are in full swing of the NBA season and the start of the College Basketball season.
The Knicks have started the season at 1-7 as they have lost their last four games. Rookie RJ Barrett is showing why the team was so high on him. Other than Barrett, there’s not much good about this team. Costly turnovers, lousy shooting, and other many other things that have put David Fizdale’s job in jeopardy. What is next for the Knicks?
Brooklyn has struggled in their new era as Kyrie Irving has started the season on a roll. At 3-4, the Nets have shown flashes, but odd rotations and sloppy play have been their calling card early in the season. Without Kevin Durant, the Nets were not projected to compete for a title. What is their ceiling this season with just Kyrie?
All this and more, including a look around the NBA and a college basketball preview. Check out a new episode of The Box Out.
The Box Out returns to the airwaves with a special Sunday matinee edition as we are 48 hours from the start of the 2019-2020 NBA season.
Locally there is much noise being made about the Brooklyn Nets...and not much about the New York Knicks. With that said, there are many questions about these teams heading into the season. How good will Brooklyn be without Kevin Durant? Will Kyrie Irving remain lucid and rational with the Nets? How many more power forwards will the Knicks sign? Will David Fizdale finish the season? Jason and Kahlil will look at the Nets and the Knicks and give their predictions for the teams.
If you look at the NBA as a whole, there are many storylines to follow this season. Anthony Davis is joining forces with LeBron James in LA. The Warriors limping into the season. The NBA vs. China.

A lot has happened since our last show, including NBA media days. The Nets and Knicks sat down to speak about their expectations and what to look for this season. Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant were the main attraction at Nets Media Day. Brooklyn is looking to win now with all the additions they added to a playoff team. Will Year 1 be the first step towards their goals? Alternatively, will it count as a placeholder year for Kevin Durant next season?
The Knicks held their media day this past week. While all is good on the surface, the day showed that New York was unable to bring in big-name free agents. The front office is playing as if they have the team that they wanted all along. What can fans make from the Knicks’ media day?
All that and more, including more chaos in Los Angeles with the Sparks and the new California law regarding college athletes. Check out a new episode of The Box Out.

Team USA managed to escape a disaster earlier this week as they defeated a game Turkey team in Pool Play at the FIBA World Cup.

We are in full swing of NBA Free Agency as The Box Out returns 24 hours after the beginning of the wild start to the NBA offseason.
The Knicks struck out significantly on Sunday as they were unable to land top free agents Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. Both Durant and Irving signed with the Nets while the Knicks signed Julius Randle and an assortment of role players and rotation guys. Once again Knick fans were once again disappointed as the franchise even released a statement on Sunday night. What happened on Sunday to the Knicks?
While the Knicks continued to be a laughingstock, the Nets with the signing of Durant and Irving may have become the favorite in the East for the next four years. The two are even taking less than the max to bring in DeAndre Jordan as Brooklyn becomes the epicenter of the basketball world. What is the ceiling for the Nets going forward? Also, how will the first year of the experiment work without Durant?
All that and more on the latest episode of The Box Out!

Alternatively, will they get adventurous and trade the pick?
After the events of last weekend, the most intriguing pick early in the draft will be the number four pick. The Lakers traded number four to New Orleans in exchange for Anthony Davis so.

The Toronto Raptors defeated the Golden State Warriors in six games to win the franchise’s first NBA Championship. Kawhi Leonard was the Finals MVP as Golden State saw yet another player fall as Klay Thompson go down with a torn ACL. While Toronto should get credit for the championship, should an asterisk be put next to the win due to the Warriors not having Kevin Durant and losing Thompson during Game 6?
On Saturday evening a major trade happened as the Pelicans traded star forward Anthony Davis to the Lakers for a package of three players and three first-round draft picks, including the fourth overall pick in Thursday night’s draft. This move came after the Celtics reportedly pulled out of negotiations due to not wanting to include Jayson Tatum in any package for Davis.

The Knicks pulled off a blockbuster trade on Thursday trading budding star Kristaps Porzingis, Courtney Lee, Trey Burke, and Tim Hardaway Jr. to Dallas for DeAndre Jordan, Wesley Matthews, and Dennis Smith Jr. New York also received two future first-round draft picks to give them seven first-round picks over the next five years.

Last week also saw New Orleans Pelicans star Anthony Davis ask the team for a trade of his own.

Boston cannot trade for him right now, so that leaves not many options for a trade partner. Where will AD end up, if he even gets traded?
The Box Out returns with a special Sunday night edition as the Northeast goes through a bitter cold weather spell.

The Nets continue to surge going 12-4 in their last 16 games and moving into the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. All this is being done without budding superstar Caris LeVert, who is reportedly close to making his return to the lineup. In the up-and-down East, can the Nets become the team that other teams in the conference do not want to face?
The Knicks continue to chug along on their rebuild. At 10-30, they have the fourth-worst record in the NBA...meaning they may have a legitimate chance of drafting number one and picking up Zion Williamson in June’s NBA Draft. Should fans just enjoy the tank and reach for Williamson? Alternatively, should they hope for a few more wins?
Jimmy Butler is yelling at his coaches, LeBron James is still out, and Minnesota needs a coach. Yes, all of this has happened in the last few days. The guys will look at all the latest news in the Association, including whether the Golden State dynasty has finally run its course.

While this year was supposed to be a rebuilding year, can the Nets legitimately contend for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference?
The Knicks continue to chug along as they begin to look towards the offseason and the race for Kevin Durant.

This includes a near miracle as they led the defending champion Warriors after three quarters at The Garden on Friday night. They are gaining respect from the NBA, including potential free agent Kevin Durant but is that enough? Is the Knicks’ rebuild going well after six games?
Brooklyn is 2-3 as Caris LeVert is turning into the go-to-guy for the Nets. With D’Angelo Russell leading the team in scoring the last two games and the Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, Brooklyn may be an upswing. Many have even said that they are better than the Knicks. Are they the best team in the area?
