Damian Lillard's friend Chris Haynes reported that Dame might finally ask out of the Blazers if they chose to keep the third overall pick in this year's NBA draft instead of trading it for a veteran second star to pair with him. Haynes also floated the possibility of a few landing spots for Dame if they do trade him this offseason. What teams would have enough to get Dame and where could he land? Next we talked about Chris Paul who is probably going to get waived by the Suns if they cannot find a landing spot for him via trade in the coming weeks. Why would the Suns waive him and where could he end up this offseason? Enjoy.

Luka wants the Mavericks to upgrade the team before the trade deadline, but with their lack of assets can they make any moves or are they better off waiting until this offseason to make a real splash? Also Marc Cuban gets mad at Tim Mcmahon over his reporting of this information. The Wizards have put Rui Hachimura on the trade block in order to clear a log jam for Kyle Kuzma at the four so they can pay him and their entire a ton of money this summer. We laughed at them for a little over this.
During the Patreon part of the episode talked about the report that Harden really wants to play with Eric Gordon in Houston apparently so we will discuss whether we believe this new report. We also talked about the mess that is the Rockets following the John Wall podcast interview where he talked about Harden, Jalen Green and KPJ.

YKB Favorite Tyrese Maxey was benched in favor of De'Anthony Melton. We talked about whether the team should explore trades for the rising guard (you know how I feel already) and one defensive wing target that has been floated this slop season. After this we will discuss all the slop that has dropped over the last week including rumors about the Raptors core, Mike Conley, D'Angelo Russell, Jakob Poeltl, Malik Beasley, and of course John Collins. We then recapped Bill & Zach's second podcast from the end of last week where they picked their western conference all stars and then we picked our western conference all star teams. Also listen to the end for one of our most absurd bits yet. Enjoy.

We live reacted to the news that the Lakers would be working out Meyers Leonard before we reviewed and broke down Bill and Zach's podcast about the Eastern Conference all stars. We talked about our beefs with their selections, methodology and why they hate on certain players (cough Harden). Also, should Embiid start over Giannis or Tatum? The statistical argument is heavily in his favor. We then made our 12 all star selections for the Eastern Conference and talked about a few guys who just missed the cut for us. Throughout this we also discussed some minor trade slop from the Pacers and a trade idea involving the Raptors and Lakers. Next week we will be doing the Western Conference after Zach & Bill release their podcast for the West later today. Enjoy.

On this episode we talked about Lebron complaining to Sam Amick about the Lakers lack of trades since he has signed his extension with the Lakers this past offseason. We also discussed the report that teams around the league are preparing for the scenario that Lebron asks out after this season and which teams could trade for him if he actually does want out of LA. Lastly we discussed an idea that Kevin O'Connor pitched where the Lakers could trade both of their picks in two separate trades. Then we talked about Kevin Durant's injury that will likely drop him from the MVP race, all star game and possibly derail the Nets red hot winning streak that turned their season around. Also, which contending team are the Nets better than right now and should they make any moves before the deadline? We also discuss some other minor other slop that has dropped today. Before riffing on the midseason report from the NBA media. Enjoy.

On this episode we discussed: THE FIRST (KIND OF) TRADE OF SLOP SEASON!! Then we talked about Bill Simmons trade suggestion of Maxey & Tobias for Beal and the Raptors & Bucks playing the worst best national television game of all time. Is this it for the current Raptors core? During the Patreon part of the episode we talked about the Bucks interest in Bojan Bogdanavic and whether they can realistically acquire him before the trade deadline, the full strength Heat losing to the Lakers without Lebron and AD, and then we drafted the 20 worst rotation players currently in the NBA. Enjoy.

Following his insane 71 point performance vs. the Chicago Bulls we revisit the trade that sent Donovan Mitchell from the Utah Jazz to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Did the Jazz make a mistake trading Mitchell when they did and for the package that they did or did the trade work for both sides? Also can Nikola Jokic really win three straight MVPs now that the Nuggets are in first place in the Western Conference? Will Sixers fans kill me for talking about this? Tune in to find out. In the middle of this episode we found out that Isaiah Joe and the SGA-less Thunder were killing Sam's Celtics and he tried not to meltdown. Finally we ended the episode talking about my favorite player, Thybulle who should probably be back in the rotation full time and my least favorite coach Doc Rivers who continues to drive me insane with his all bench lineups. Enjoy.

Lastly we hit on the insanely deep MVP, all star and all NBA race for the most talented season in NBA history. This was a long one because we will not be doing a second episode this week. Enjoy.

Also we discussed a few major people who just missed the last and argued who should have been removed in place of these players.

SLOP SEASON BEGINS THIS WEEK! To kick it off first we discussed trade rumors that Shams mentioned in his latest article including: Bojan Bogdanavic, Kyle Kuzma, Cam Reddish, Evan Fournier and the Lakers interest in basically all of them. We then talked about the many different directions teams like the Lakers, Nets, Hawks, Heat, Wizards could go and how some teams being asset poor at this deadline could make it hard for contenders wanting to upgrade. We also discussed the usuals who were mentioned including Jae Crowder, John Collins, Joe Harris and Eric Gordon, Victor Oladipo and where they could end up. Then Sam answered for his crimes as his baby boy and MVP frontrunner Jayson Tatum has his first real disasterclass of the season vs. Steph Curry and Warriors again. A team Sam has slandered relentlessly!! Lastly we will discussed Joel Embiid who had another 50+ piece vs. the Hornets .. mostly because he had to drag this team to another victory AGAIN. And why this Sixers season feels so empty. SAD.

December 15th, aka the beginning of slop season, is one week away! To celebrate we run through one trade idea for every NBA team that is a contender & semi-contender right now. First we talked about Brittany Griner being release from prison and the weird reaction to the "trade" that made it happen! We proposed trade ideas for the Suns, Bucks, Nuggets, Nets, Hawks, Sixers (lol), Celtics, Heat, Mavericks, Cavs, Pelicans, and Warriors. Sorry to the Grizzlies and Clippers but your teams are too confusing and deep to come up with trades for right now. Also the Raptors like never make trades. But if you have some trade ideas for those teams comment them below!

Matt aka @PanasonicDX4500 joins us to discuss what is happening with the Sixers as they lost their third in a row during James Harden's awful return post injury. Is Doc back on the hot seat? Should the stars be held accountable? Should Morey get more blame for this team lacking cohesion? Is there anyway out of this or is this the beginning of the end for this era of Sixers basketball? Also: will I have a mental breakdown? The answer to all of these questions & more will be answered!!
We also talked about AD returning to All NBA form, the Lakers gearing up to make trades. Trae Young trying to get his second coach fired and the drama surrounding that. Bill Simmons and Ryen Russillo's ridiculous takes on Trae. And a bunch of other random stuff. Then we will discuss the worst & best moves from this past NBA offseason. Enjoy.

The Celtics can't stop winning and it is killing Trill slowly. They have the number one offense by a wide margin. Old Al Horford just extended for pennies. Jayson Tatum is the betting favorite for MVP on some books. Are they the clear title favorites? Is this sustainable? Will Trill die during this podcast? Will Sam celebrate? Probably.
During the Patreon part of this episode we dive into some quarter season stats that show what team's and player's hot starts might be sustainable and others that might not be sustainable. We talked about the Pacers, Blazers, Pelicans, Raptors, Sixers and some specific players on those teams. Enjoy.

Chicago Bulls optimist Trey Kerby from the No Dunks podcast stopped by to talk about his Bulls weird start to the season. We discussed many things including the dreaded treadmill of mediocrity, who he considers part of the Bulls core, whether he would explore tanking, rebuilding or resetting this year. We then talked about if they could turn the season around by changes to their starting line up or rotation. I also pitched a trade rumor that I heard involving the Bulls and the Lakers, Sam played devil's advocate with the Bulls present and future and we tried to figure out if they could steal a game or two off one of the conference favorites if they reach the playoffs. After our convo with Trey, I gave my quick thoughts on the Sixers turning it around recently and then we discussed the first kind of real slop that dropped this season: former all star Kemba Walker signing with the Dallas Mavericks. Does it even matter? Will it help turn their season around? Is the Mavs organization fraudulent and Luka Doncic Merchants? We finished the episode with a MVP based psychosis conversation because Sam is currently experiencing the same thing that Sixers fans experienced the past two years with advanced metrics going against his sweet baby boy Jayson Tatum.

YOU KNOW THE VIBES! The Paul Reed Sixers upset the Nets during low energy Ben Simmons during his return to Philadelphia. Very sad for Ben and his supporters. We discussed De'Antony Melton, Tobias Harris and Paul Reed's magical night + I decided it is actually good that PJ Tucker can't score because I think it is funny now. We also touched on the Nets as a whole and why we do not think they are actual contenders.
Then during the Patreon part of this episode we dove into some speculative slop about KD and a surprise team, The Knicks taking calls on Immanuel Quickley and the Pistons taking calls on Saddiq Bey. Finally we drafted the 20 worst contracts in the NBA currently. To hear this entire episode subscribe to the YKB Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/YouKnowBall

We talked about Embiid and Maxey's injuries, Ben Simmons returning to town to play the Skeleton Sixers, Giannis being an enemy of the working class, PJ tucker not being able to score at all and whether this is going to hurt the Sixers in the playoffs, some Tobias Harris "trade rumors" that are definitely real. And then we talked about some preseason NBA takes that we would like to take back if we could. And there were a lot. Enjoy.

The Wolves might have screwed themselves by making an all in move for Rudy Gobert. We discuss how the Wolves could turn it around, if an in season trade is even possible, the unfair comparisons to the 19-20 Sixers, the lack of flexibility moving forward that they have and how it could all lead to the eventual departure of Karl Anthony Towns, or even worse, Anthony Edwards. Also, will it go down as one of the worst trades of all time? Enjoy.

The now .500 Sixers were brought back to life by Joel Embiid's absolutely amazing two way performance on Sunday night vs. the Utah Jazz. Embiid returned to MVP form with a near 60 point quadruple double where he picked apart the Jazz scoring at will and setting up his teammates in a way we have never seen before. He also returned to his elite form on the defensive end as a rim protector and pick and roll defender vs. one of the best early season offenses in the NBA. Part of me was extremely excited to see Embiid dominate and another part of me was concerned that we still need these kind of performances in order to win games! But the Sixers are back on track with Harden returning in 2-3 weeks and should be fighting for a top four seed in the East moving forward. After the Embiid and Sixers discussion we discussed the Golden State Warriors who are currently struggling to start the season. We talked about this being the potential end of their dynasty and whether a trade could save them before going over a handful of fake trades involving disappointing prospects James Wiseman and Jonathan Kuminga. Enjoy.

@TheKevinRice joined Sam and Trill to draft the 30 best prospects in the NBA as part of our first ever NBA prospect draft. Our definition of a prospect is someone who is 25 years and younger right now. When drafting players we are not taking contacts into consideration. This is just the players that we would take moving forward if we ran an NBA team. Similar to the overrated player NBA draft we will draft prospects in a snake draft with Kevin going first, Sam second and Trill third/fourth etc. Enjoy.

SLOP SEASON IS ALMOST HERE!! Lakers & Klutch Propagandist Harrison Faigen (@hmfaigen) from SBNation returned to talk with Sam and Trill about all things Lakers including the recent trade rumors around Anthony Davis started by the Podfather himself Bill Simmons. Before we got into that we discussed the new rumors that the Lakers may not trade their two first round picks with Russell Westbrook for the rumored Myles Turner + Buddy Hield deal or Kyrie Irving because they may be targeting a new mystery star with that trade package. We tried to figure out exactly who that star is. We then discussed whether it is realistic for the Lakers to consider trading Anthony Davis this season, what teams would be interested in AD and we all pitched some fake AD trades that ranged from pretty realistic to legitimately psychotic. We went through more than 15 trades and discussed which ones made the most sense for the Lakers and other teams around the NBA. We were gone off the slop on this one so there were many sidebars and insane rants so please hang with us. Everything else we were supposed to talk about on this episode was bumped to the next episode since we went almost two hours on the Lakers and fake AD trades. Enjoy!

During this segment we talked about James Harden's injury that will keep him out at least two weeks (he will be "re-evaluated" lol) if not a whole month. We talked about what this means for the Sixers, Doc Rivers job security, and most importantly Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid's roles with the team. Will De'Anthony Melton starting give the Sixers some defensive energy and a chance to win some games without Harden? Who plays more now? Shake? Thybulle? Perhaps some Korkmaz? We also discussed whether the Sixers should sign former All Star Kemba Walker with their lost roster spot to fill the shot creation void. Enjoy!
During the Patreon portion of this podcast Sam, Trill and Parm drafted a team of ten players each (30 picks overall) of the most overrated players currently in the NBA. We are drafting the overrated player based on general public perception. We aren’t taking just one group's opinion into account (calculator boys, real hoopers, the Zach Lowe types) but the general idea of how good a player is at this time. What they are as a player RIGHT NOW. Not their all time ranking.
It was a snake draft. 30 player draft. Every person gets 10 players. Some controversial picks in there. Also Kyrie Irving news dropped in the middle of this so we reacted to that as well.

In addition to our new partnership with Underdog Fantasy, we are also excited to announce that YKB regular Sam Sheehan (@NBABabySecret) will be joining You Know Ball as the full time co-host. No, this is not a bit. We are being serious. He is the new YKB co-host.
In his first episode as co-host Sam and I talked about the shit show that is the Brooklyn Nets. Yesterday it was announced that head coach Steve Nash would be fired after the team started the season 2-5. Then less than two hours later it was announced that suspended Celtics coach Ime Udoka would be the new head coach of the Brooklyn Nets. Oh, and by the way Kyrie posted some anti Semitic movie on Twitter and did not apologize for it. And Ben Simmons has missed back to back games after an awful start. Probably nothing. Can the Nets season be salvaged?
Meanwhile the Sixers have won three in a row to get back to .500 on the season! Tyrese Maxey scored a career high vs. the Toronto Raptors (again lol), Joel Embiid hit a game winner and remains undefeated vs. the Chicago Bulls and James Harden destroyed the Washington Wizards. The team is 2-0 without Joel Embiid which I did not think was possible? Are we smelling some Ewing Theory potential here House?? Also the NBA did some dumb tampering charges against the Sixers where they lost second round picks in 2023 & 2024 so we talked about that as well. Montrezl Harrell has been surprisingly good? De'Anthony Melton is a god level role player. The Sixers are a good team and should have a better record. It's still fire Doc Rivers til I die.
Then we talk about the team we love to hate the most, the Miami Heat! We talked about the Heat potentially missing their window to contend after their (now) 3-5 start that the NBA media seems to be conveniently ignoring? But Jimmy Butler still thinks they are going to be NBA champions still? After making fun of them for a little we discussed how the Heat can salvage the Butler era and actually get back into the championship conversation. Enjoy!

Resident Brooklyn Nets fan Reed Wallach from BetSided's "The Early Reed" returns to the podcast to discuss Ben Simmons slow start with the Brooklyn Nets where he is not looking to score, fouling out of games and possibly screwing up lineups for a team that has championship aspirations. Can the KD and Kyrie Nets be salvaged or will this end in disaster? We also discussed the Deja Vu that I am having as a Sixers fan listening to Nets fans talk about Ben and a fake trade that Reed said he would take in a heartbeat. Plus what would Ben Simmons value be if he were a free agent today?

Derek Bodner of Sixers Beat and the Daily Six newsletter returned to the podcast to discuss the Sixers disastrous 0-3 start. Originally I asked Bodner to come on the podcast to talk me off the ledge when the Sixers lost their opening games to the Celtics and Bucks (good teams!) but we both assumed they would beat the tanking Spurs (bad team!) so at least we would have something positive to talk about. Of course that did not happen! We talked about many things that are ailing the team right now including Joel Embiid's slow start and foot injury, the new pieces not fitting together on either end, and rotational changes that can be made (Free B-Ball Paul 2.0?) but we mainly discussed Doc Rivers job status and whether he is actually on the hot seat right now. We wrapped up the episode talking about potential Doc Rivers replacement's if he is fired, what it would take for the Sixers to move on from Doc and whether we think it would be an internal or external hire and of course we touched on Bill Simmons comments on Joel Embiid wanting to play for the Knicks because of his former agents running the team.

Yes I am coping over the Sixers opening night loss to the Celtics so this is like my therapy. During this preview clip we discussed the Lakers opening night vs. the Golden State Warriors. The team looked as bad as advertised. With key injuries to new old Lakers Thomas Bryant and Dennis Schroder, their depth was tested and they were playing players like Matt Ryan and Wenyen Gabriel who have barely ever played in the league before. They also could not hit a shot which led to some snarky post game comments from Lebron James and Russell Westbrook already complaining about coming off the bench in the preseason. Can a Russ trade even save this team or are they past the point of no return? And yes I am coping over the Sixers opening night loss to the Celtics so this is like my therapy.

Turn from Celtics Twitter returned to talk about rookie extensions from the 2019 NBA Draft class. We talked about Matisse Thybulle not getting extended by the Sixers (WOOHOO!!) and what this means for him moving forward, Grant Williams not getting extended by the Celtics despite his breakout season last year and some other players who actually did get extended including Jordan Poole, Tyler Herro, Brandon Clarke, Kevin Porter, Jr. and Deandre Hunter who got extended mid podcast (lol). We then talked about a few notable players who did not get extended including the Suns Cam Johnson and the Hornets PJ Washington. After the rookie extension talk we gave a few bold predictions for this upcoming NBA season and gave predictions for who would win on opening night of the 22-23 season including our pick for the Sixers vs. Celtics. Enjoy!

Sam, Parm and Trill debate who will win NBA MVP for the 2022-2023 season. We discussed the narratives around the award in recent years, the betting favorites (Luka, Giannis, Embiid) to win this year, the unlikeliness of Jokic winning a third straight MVP due to historical precedent and we also gave some dark horse picks with long betting odds that could be worth taking a flier on. Finally we all made our cases for who we think will win the award this year. Enjoy!

To celebrate reaching 200 YKB Patreon Subscribers (Woohoo!) and 100 subscribers on my second YouTube channel we have unlocked this YKB Patreon episode from September 22nd 2022 where Sam Sheehan and I predicted Bill Simmons and Ryen Russillo's Over/Under takes on the upcoming NBA season. Bill and Russillo just released this episode so we figured it was a good time to let it free to the world. Sorry to Joe House who we forgot was also involved in this annual podcast lol. Oh we also gave our over/under predictions for all 30 NBA teams in this episode as well. Enjoy.

Rob Flom from 213 Hoops returns for part two of our annual predicting the NBA series to discuss: The Golden State Warriors madness + some fake Draymond Green Trades if the team does decides to move on from him (we recorded this before the news that Draymond would not be suspended lol). Then we discussed Tyrese Maxey's insane preseason where he is averaging more than 40 points per 36 minutes) the Sixers cutting Trevelin Queen (the most important Queen we have lost this year) and Charles Bassey being the victim of the Sixers roster crunch. Plus Isaiah Joe will probably make the roster, yay! Finally we wrapped our predicting the season series predicted Western Conference standings 1- 15, picked our conference finals matchup and who will win the conference. Before finally revealing our + NBA finals matchup and the 22-23 NBA Finals winner. Enjoy!

Rob Flom (@RichHomieFlom) returned for our annual NBA preseason predictions! In part one we talked about the lying NBA media (sad!) setting their expectations way too high for the Sixers and I am beginning to get flashbacks to other failed Sixers seasons?? But this team is way deeper and better .. right??
Also the Sixers new starting line up made their debut and Tyrese Maxey proved why he is god. James Harden looked ... kinda the same? So we talked about that and whether the hype is actually worth buying with this Sixers team. Enjoy!
In the full Patreon episode we had a little sidebar about 2023 NBA Draft Prospect Victor Wembanyama vs. current NBA prospects and players and then we try to predict the Eastern Conference Standings for this upcoming NBA season before picking our conference finals matchup + which team will come out of the east this season.

We got our first voicemail from a YKB Patreon Head Hog about the Boston Celtics so we riffed on that and gave our thoughts. Then Sam Sheehan and Trill overreact to the first few days of the NBA preseason (record Tuesday night during Zion's return) including Tyrese Maxey's insane first half, Ben Simmons return to basketball vs. the Sixers, Cade Cunningham's slow start vs. the Knicks and then we make fun of some Warriors fans for doing the same exact thing that we do when they get overly excited about their young players. I also made a prediction about which Sixer that I feel like could be on the move very soon. And it is not who you think it is. Finally we predicted the GOAT Zach Lowe's league pass rankings for the 2022 - 2023 NBA season while also sharing our own league pass rankings for this upcoming season. We give our locks for the list, some teams that might pique Zach's interest and the teams that will obviously not be included (like one he calls Voldemort) on his list. In the middle of this episode the two GOATs Bill Simmons and Zach Lowe dropped an episode and we tried to guess some of their talking points during the podcast.

I was joined by Daniel Sohn (@SanielDohn) and Young Parm (@howdohowdohowdo) for this episode where we ranked the NBA teams that have the most disaster potential for this upcoming NBA season. We talked about the bad vibes teams to the just straight up bad teams and even worse, the teams going absolutely nowhere. During this section we discussed the honorable mentions for our disaster rankings which included some very talented but weird vibes teams: the Brooklyn Nets, Miami Heat, Phoenix Suns and Boston Celtics.

Jae Crowder and the Suns have mutually agreed to part ways before the start of training camp. Could the Sixers be interested? What does a realistic trade package look like for the Sixers? Which young players would you not be willing to part with in a trade for Crowder? If the Sixers cannot trade for him, which NBA teams are realistic trade partners? We also discussed Jason's fellow Australian Ben Simmons' guest appearance on JJ Redick's podcast the Old Man and the Three podcast which was a weird mix of bitter, insecure and cocky . Enjoy!

In this preview clip from the Patreon exclusive YKB Episode, Sam (@NBABabySecret) and Trill go through the first release of ESPN NBA's top 100 list where they ranked the 100th - 26th best players in the NBA for next season. This click bait list is designed to make us mad so we all talk about it and hey it works every single year! In this section we talked about which players should not have been included, which players should have been included, and a few players who were way too high (cough cough Russell Westbrook) and some who were too low (Jamal Murray). Also should rookies be included at all on these lists? Also please keep in mind we recorded this episode right before the Ime Udoka scandal story came out so more on that later ... Enjoy!

Panasonic Matt (Worst Handle on Twitter) made his return to talk about Sixers head coach Doc Rivers getting horny and liking a bunch of porn tweets on Twitter. Which is easily the coolest thing that Doc has ever done as Sixers coach btw. We then discussed everything that could go right for the Sixers (lol like this ever happens) and what their ceiling is this season if things break in their favor. Topics ranged from James Harden bouncing back to new vets being happy with his new role to certain young players making leaps for trade purposes. I then gave my prediction for this team's ceiling in the regular season and playoffs and whether they could realistically hit that ceiling. Enjoy!

In this clip from the very first YKB Patreon exclusive we discussed Tyrese Maxey's breakout in year two with the Sixers and how he can improve even more as an NBA player moving forward. My guest Ben Pfiefer also explained why Montrezl Harrell signing with the Sixers could be important for Maxey's development as an on ball creator and I shared a stat about Maxey's early career playoff stats that made me think his ceiling might be even higher than I ever imagined. Enjoy! To hear our floor, median outcome and ceiling predictions for Maxey's career, please visit the Patreon link below.

Day one Tyrese Maxey stan Ben Pfiefer returned to talk about Maxey's improvement since last year when Ben was on the podcast, how one new addition to the Sixers could help Maxey's game develop this season, and how Maxey can become an impactful passer and defender at the NBA level. We then discussed Maxey's floor, median outcome and ceiling (which might be higher than we thought before) as an NBA player with some Maxey propaganda stats sprinkled in. We then ended the podcast discussing whether you would rather have Maxey or a list of young rising stars and some of Ben's answers might surprise you!

The rest of this episode is the audio from our YouTube live stream NBA Mock Expansion Draft. Shoutout to the tharealkevbot who paid for the majority of the bottle of James Harden's wine that I drank throughout this live stream. It was very good wine and I got very drunk so things went off the rails towards the end.
We conducted a two team (Seattle and Las Vegas) NBA expansion Mock Draft. All 30 current NBA teams were able to protect six players each, leaving at least nine players from each team available to draft in the mock draft. Every current team can lose a maximum of two players, one to each expansion team. Current NBA teams can also incentivize the drafting expansion teams to take a bad contract off their hands. For example: the Knicks could offer a first round pick to one of the teams to draft Julius Randle and take his contract. Enjoy!

I was joined for an emergency stream by Sam Sheehan (@NBABabySecret) and Nihilist Bucks to discuss the Cleveland Cavaliers stealing Donovan Mitchell from the New York Knicks in a shocker slop drop. The Jazz traded the 26 year old all star for a load of picks and swaps plus Lauri Markkanen, Ochai Agbaji and a sign and trade for Collin Sexton. We discussed where this puts the Cavs in the hierarchy of the loaded Eastern Conference, where the Knicks go from here and what the Jazz will do with Bojan Bogdanovic, Jordan Clarkson and Mike Conley now that they have fully committed to their rebuild. Also could the Lakers get those players after acquiring Patrick Beverly from the Jazz last week? Should the Sixers have any interest in Clarkson or Bojan? And is it possible for them to get them? Also we riffed on the possibility of an NBA expansion draft with two teams now that the league is so loaded. We picked which players we would protect from the Celtics, Bucks and Sixers. Enjoy!

Harrison Faigen from SBNation joins the podcast to discuss the new Kevin Durant "rumors" from The Athletic's Shams Charania including new "interest" from the Memphis Grizzlies. We discussed why teams continue to low ball the Nets, what it will take to get a deal actually done and what we would be looking for in a return for one of the 15 greatest basketball players of all time. Plus: do you believe Kyrie Irving is actually going to return to the Nets? We then discussed Lebron James re-signing with the Lakers and whether the team and the end of Lebron's window can actually be salvaged with a Russell Westbrook trade. We finished the podcast by ranking our favorite Russell Westbrook trades including fake trades to the Brooklyn Nets, Indiana Pacers, Utah Jazz, New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs and what we would give up to move off the Westbrook deal.

Chuck from ChuckingDarts returned to SLOP IT UP! We discussed one of the deepest and most memorable drafts of all time: the 2014 NBA Draft. The hype leading up to this draft was insane from Andrew Wiggins being the Maple Jordan to Joel Embiid being the next Hakeem and clear number one pick until he broke his foot. We discussed all of the narratives and reactions to this draft and talked about some of the biggest what if's that came from it. Mainly what if the Bucks selected Joel Embiid at number two and made one of the greatest duos in NBA history? Other discussions included why did Embiid not go number one? How did Jokic fall so far? And of course we redrafted the lottery of this draft and discussed who went number one overall between two future hall of fame centers: Joel Embiid and Nikola Jokic. Enjoy!

Matt Brooks (@MattBrooksNBA) from Nets Daily joined me to talk about all the madness that is always happening with the Brooklyn Nets including the new rumors that Kevin Durant is open to playing with the Sixers. We discussed many things including Kevin Durant vs. Nets coaching and management, Durant and Harden's renewed friendship in Europe? a Celtics Jaylen Brown based package vs. a Sixers Tyrese Maxey based package, why a Sixers trade package might be more enticing than you think and why Morey might be actually willing to push in the chips more than any other GM in the NBA. After our discussion about Durant trades we held our very first SLOP TRIAL where we discussed Sean Marks entire tenure as the Nets GM and determined whether he is actually a good GM (and Durant is wrong) or a bad GM (and Durant is right).

Sixers Beat Writer Adam Aaronson from The Rights to Ricky Sanchez joined the podcast to revisit one of the most insane times in Sixers fandom history, Burnergate! Before this, we touched on the news that the NBA is investigating the Sixers and James Harden for tampering ... which should not be a surprise to anyone! Next we dove head first into Burnergate where we talked about the night that the Ringer story from Ben Detrick first broke, the origins of his "source" for this story and how Adam started digging into the burner accounts himself. We also discussed his disdain for his own players in the tweets including former number one overall pick Markelle Fultz and Sixers MVP candidate Joel Embiid and some of the most insane tweets that Adam found while searching through the Twitter accounts. Including one tweet that blew my mind. Finally we discussed an alternative universe in which Colangelo is never first and how that could have effected the Sixers 2018 and 2019 moves and changed the trajectory of the franchise. Enjoy!

Live from Sandbox Production Studios! Nihilist Bucks aka Craigory Smith returned to discuss the minor slop that we got over the last few days. We talked about the death of the five team trade (RIP), Russell Westbook firing his agent of 14 years and his fall out with Lebron and Klutch and why the Lakers could be a disaster again next season. Then we discussed more reports about Kyrie and KD being stuck with the Nets which could lead to a wide variety of good and bad outcomes for the team. Next we talked about what a realistic Donovan Mitchell trade package from the Knicks will actually look like. We then wrapped up the podcast by talking about Seth Partnow from the Athletic's bi-annual 125 best NBA players tiers. Enjoy!

Bryan Toporek from Liberty Ballers, Forbes and Bleacher Report to discuss all the slop that dropped this week! First Deandre Ayton back to the Suns after they match the Pacers four year max offer sheet, the drama that could unfold in their locker room next year and how it will effect Phoenix Suns and their grand plans to trade for Kevin Durant. We also talked about the Donovan Mitchell to the Knicks rumors, whether the Knicks should go all in for the star they have wanted forever and what a realistic package could look like for them to land him. We then talked about why the Sixers were never major players for Mitchell despite having one of the best young prospects in the league in Tyrese Maxey. Also when the Jazz fully blow it up, how can the Sixers benefit and who should they target on their roster? Last we talked about Isaiah Joe, Trevelin Queen, Jaden Springer and the Summer League Sixers. Enjoy!

The Ringer's Bill Simmons and Ryne Russillo recorded one of the most perfect podcast's of all time titled "The NBA Trade Value List" where they ranked the most valuable trade chips currently in the NBA. I was joined by podcast regular's Matt (@MDelNBA) and Sam Sheehan (Definitely Not @NBABabySecret on Twitter) to discuss the The Ringer's Bill Simmons and Ryne Russillo recorded one of the most perfect podcast's of all time titled "The NBA Trade Value List" where they ranked the most valuable trade chips currently in the NBA. I was joined by podcast regular's Matt (@MDelNBA) and Sam Sheehan (Definitely Not @NBABabySecret) to discuss the rankings, tiers, who was too high, who was too low, recency bias towards certain players and the massive overvaluing of unproven players over proven players. Somehow this podcast was longer than the actual Bill and Russillo podcast but that's what happens when Sam and Matt come on the podcast. Enjoy!

Brooklyn Nets Super Fan Reed Wallach from Bet Sided joined me to discuss all the insanity surrounding the Kevin Durant trade news that has dropped over the last two weeks. We discussed and ranked all of the potential trades including realistic packages from the Phoenix Suns, Miami Heat, New Orleans Pelicans, Toronto Raptors, Boston Celtics and two wild card teams that could get into the mix. We then laughed at Lakers reporters who are pushing propaganda for the Lakers in the Kyrie for Russ trade talks. Enjoy!

Jackson Frank from Dime Uproxx and Liberty Ballers returns to the podcast to talk all things Sixers slop. First we addressed the new Kyrie to the Sixers rumors and talked about why we think it is a long shot that this ever happens ... for many reasons. Next we discussed the slightly more realistic but still hard to accomplish Eric Gordon to the Sixers rumors that won't seem to go away. And then we ran down the Sixers acquisitions this offseason including PJ Tucker, Danuel House, and De'Anthony Melton. We discussed their fit on the team, the new vision of building around Maxey, Harden and Embiid with defensive minded players and who will be the starting small forward to start next season. Enjoy!

TRADES TRADES TRADES! On this slop stream we discussed Rudy Gobert to the Minnesota Timberwolves for a crazy haul of draft picks and how it could effect the Kevin Durant and Donovan Mitchell trade market. Plus Malcolm Brogdon to the Celtics for a bag of beans. And we also touched on Delaware legend White Donte to the Warriors and white Donte 2.0 Kevin Huerter to the Kings for Justin Holiday and a future first. A lot of random shit on this podcast as well.

SLOP NUKE! Kevin Durant requests a trade from the Brooklyn Nets. We talked about how this will effect the trade and free agency market and what trades are realistic for KD. We also reacted in real time to all of the free agent signings and trades that happened on the first day of free agency. Including PJ Tucker, Danuel House and Daryl Morey's obsession with signing former Houston Rockets. Enjoy!

On this slop stream (subscribe to YKB on YouTube to watch them live) we talked all the latest in NBA trade and free agency SLOP. James Harden opted out of his contract to give the Sixers more flexibility and access to the Mid Level Exception, Bi Annual Exception and possible sign and trade scenarios. We talked about some way that could shake out for the team including some targets they might be able to go after with the BAE. We also reacted to the Dejounte Murray to the Hawks trade, KCP for Will Barton and Monte Morris trade, and discussed trade rumors surrounding Tobias Harris, Matisse Thybulle & more! We will be streaming Thursday night starting a 5:30 PM EST for the beginning of free agency. Enjoy!

I was joined by the number one De'Anthony Melton fan Keith Parish from Fastbreak Breakfast to discuss all things MELTON! We talked about why Memphis moved on from Melton, what he brings to the Sixers and how he fits perfectly as the first guy off the bench with the Maxey, Harden and Embiid core. We also touched on the Grizzles draft including my personal favorite 2022 draft prospect David Roddy who was picked with the Sixers first rounder that was traded to Memphis for Melton. Up top I discussed how Harden might have to take a paycut to the Sixers for the Sixers to have access to the MLE to sign PJ Tucker to the rumored 3 years 30 million dollar contract that we will be offered on Thursday. Also thank you to Kyrie Irving who ruined the second part of this podcast by opting into his contract with the Nets! I will be back shortly with more slop for the final days of slop week(s). ENJOY!

This is the audio from our 2022 NBA Draft Live Stream: Slopped and Screwed edition. We reacted to all of the craziness of draft night including Paolo going one, the Nets disaster and more. I got very drunk so please forgive me towards the end of this podcast. If you wanna fast forward to the Sixers trading pick 23 for De'Anthony Melton it happened just over 3:09:00 mark. Thank you to everyone who joined us for the live stream and everyone who watched it live on YouTube.

It's Draft Week Baby! The Kevin Rice made his triumphant return after a year break from the public eye!!! He returned to talk about the MASSIVE Kyrie Irving news from Shams that he could possibly leave the Nets in free agency for the Knicks or Lakers. Next we talked about PJ Tucker declining his player option to explore free agency and how the Sixers could sign him to be a potential Danny Green replacement. We also touched on the Hornets being cheap and why a Miles Bridges for Deandre Ayton swap makes some sense for both teams. We then tried to predict every pick in the 2022 NBA Draft Lottery based on public info and how the lottery teams generally operate. Last we discussed a few more prospects for the Sixers at 23 including TyTy Washington, Kennedy Chandler, Dalen Terry, Kendall Brown and my personal favorite prospect: David Roddy. Enjoy!

The NBA finals are over. The Warriors won again (thank god) so now we can focus on what really matters: SLOP. Josh Reynolds from the new podcast "That's Ball Folks" joined me to discuss all things Sixers slop related including James Harden extension report from Jake Fischer, Thybulle, Korkmaz, Shake and Tobias being shopped around the league and intel based mock drafts connecting the Sixers to one of my favorite draft targets at number 23. We then talked in depth on some fake trades and offseason questions submitted by You Know Ball listeners. ENJOY!

Dave Early from Liberty Ballers returned to talk Sixers draft night trade. We talked about the recent trade slop that dropped from KOC that implied that the Sixers might try to move Danny Green's contract and pick number 23 for a roster upgrade on draft night. I talked about the four guys that I would keep instead of trading the pick if they fell to the Sixers at number 23 and we discussed some other draft targets who I like but I would be fine if they traded the pick instead of keeping them. Then we ran down a bunch of trades that the Sixers could try to execute on draft night. Some are realistic trades but mostly they are just dreams that I have. We discussed why they might work, why they might not and determined how realistic they are from a scale of 1-10. Enjoy! We are excited to announce our very first partnership with Philly Sports Trips!

Chuck from the Chucking Darts podcast returned to discuss the Sixers wing targets with pick 23 including my favorite prospect who is falling down draft boards for some reason and even being mock drafted to the Sixers (!) in a few mock drafts ... LSU power wing Tari Eason. We discussed Tari's rise and fall on draft boards over the last year, his strengths and flaws, and why he could be the perfect upside swing for the Sixers if he is still on the board at 23. Next we discussed the late riser of this draft Jalen Williams of Santa Clara and why he could be a great fit on a contending win now team like the Sixers. Some other wing targets discussed included Christian Braun and Ochai Agbaji of Kansas, Jake Laravia of Wake Forest, Kendall Brown of Baylor, Marjon Beauchamp of the G-League Ignite, Nikola Jovic of Mega Mozzart and Chuck's favorite second round/undrafted free agent prospect sleeper Justin Lewis of Marquette. We also touched on a few other names as well. We ended the episode discussing the latest SLOP that dropped from Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report who reported that teams are trying to pry away 3&D wing and NBA nerd favorite OG Anunoby from the Toronto Raptors. We then debated, would you rather have the fourth pick in this draft or OG? Enjoy!

I was joined by filmmaker Jon Hill aka @JHillNahMean from the Super Hoopers podcast to discuss many things but mainly the Lakers crushing our dreams by hiring Darvin Ham instead of top 15 all time head coach Doc Rivers. We also discussed weird diehard Daryl Morey defenders, Embiid's tweets about Miami that made me nervous about his future, the Sixers young guys (including the untouchable Tyrese Maxey and unvaxable Thybulle) and why the NBA finals show us the value of investing in your own talent and developing them! Next we gave our NBA finals predictions and discussed the matchup between the Celtics and Warriors. After that we did the weekly around the NBA SLOP round up which included rumors about Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, Rudy Gobert, Zach Lavine (again) and one team that might be interested in Tobias Harris? Finally we ended the episode by discussing Jon's new film Above the Clouds that you can donate to and support below. Enjoy! Support Jon's film! Visit https://www.abovethecloudsfilm.com/ to donate.

Bryan Toporek from Forbes and Bleacher Report joined me to talk a whole lot of slop including: The Nets probably deferring the Sixers pick to 2023 which means the Sixers will have a first round pick and I will have draft content over the next few weeks! The Lakers are still interested in Doc Rivers for some reason which raises the questions ... do the Sixers really wanna keep him? Trading Tobias Harris is harder than it sounds due to many different factors so is it better just to keep him? The Chicago Bulls are interested in Thybulle but what can they really give up for him? Also, we explore some fake Thybulle trades (that might have to include the 23rd pick) that could net the Sixers some rotation player(s) back. For the last 30 minutes of this episode we did a league wide slop round up and talked about rumors surrounding Deandre Ayton, Zach Lavine, Russell Westbrook, Jerami Grant, Bradley Beal, the Blazers, Kings and more!
Unfortunately the Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant news came out after we recorded so more on that next episode.
Marty Teller made his triumphant return to the podcast to discuss all things Sixers offseason, like we always do. First, we discussed the re-litigation of the Jimmy Butler Sixers era and why there is some revisionist history with the whole situation from fans and even Jimmy himself. After that we dove into the idea of Morey "star hunting" again and talked about a few different targets who could possibly be the third or fourth star on next year's Sixers. We then discussed whether this strategy was worth it or if the team should focus on building the team's depth through free agency, trades and the draft instead. From there we discussed Harden's new (possibly discounted) contract, Tobias Harris and Matisse Thybulle trades and some targets that we would have in those deals. We finished the episode talking about our favorite free agent targets that the Sixers could target to build their depth. Enjoy!

I was joined by Zo from the Rights to Ricky Sanchez to discuss SOME FRESH HOT SIXERS TRADE SLOP. The Deal Zone king himself Brian Windhorst leaked some information about the Sixers plans to pursue a third star this offseason and why the draft lottery could effect those plans. Would the team really be willing to trade Philadelphia hero Tyrese Maxey in order to get a third star? We discussed out thoughts on that and tried to guess the third star Windhorst might be hinting at in this interview. Also we discussed: is Doc Rivers really going to be back, how the Sixers can become DAWGS, the Suns major collapse and gave our conference finals and finals predictions. Enjoy!

WHAT A WIN! Fresh off a game three win vs. the The Miami Heat to get back into the series, we discussed the man, the myth, the legend Joel Embiid and his amazing comeback and how this could change everything for the team in this series and in the playoffs moving forward. We also touched on a bunch of stuff including Danny Green's revenge vs. the Sixers crowd, Maxey's insane second half after a cold start, Tobias 2.0 making winning plays, and game manager James Harden.

The Sixers scared us for a second but they beat the Toronto Raptors in a game 6 blowout to seal the series and advance to the second round. Next up, the Miami Heat. We talked about the end of the Raptors series and what we are and aren't looking forward to in the Miami Heat series. Then we talked about the other series around the league. Enjoy!

Embiid hit the first game winning shot of his career to go up 3-0 on the Toronto Raptors ... but then we found out he had torn ligaments in his thumb and the team laid an egg in game 4 .. because it's the Sixers baby! But overall we tried to keep things positive on this podcast as the Sixers aim to close out the Raptors at home in game 5 on Monday night. We talked the big shot and win in game 3, the Tobias "Harrison Barnes" vision we discussed finally coming to fruition and why guys like Danny Green, Shake Milton and Paul Reed will be crucial to the Sixers success in the playoffs. We then wrapped up the episode talking about why the Ben Simmons era with the KD/Kyrie Brooklyn Nets continues to look like a disaster before it even gets off the ground.

Embiid is MVP. Maxey is a superstar. Harden is a point god. Doc and Tobias are finally normal. Paul Reed is playing? Danny Green is not washed? Hopefully we didn't push our luck with this episode. Everyone online is mad about free throws. Everything is good ... for now. Enjoy.

I was joined by the Pound the Rock guys to preview the Sixers Raptors first round series and talk about why the Raptors are such a weird matchup for the Sixers in general. We discussed a whole ton of stuff including how the Raptors turning their season around, the unique ways they slow down Sixers superstar Joel Embiid and whether some regular season elements such as the Sixers foul drawing and the Raptors transition offense will be able to translate to playoff success. Some other things discussed included the coaching mismatch between Nick Nurse and Doc Rivers, why Thybulle's comments on his vaccination status that will make him ineligible to play in Toronto make zero sense and why sophomore rising star Tyrese Maxey could be a huge part of the Sixers offense in this series. We ended the episode by giving our series predictions and talking about whether the winner of this series will beat the Miami Heat and go on to make the conference finals. Enjoy!

It's the most dreadful time of the year, the NBA playoffs! The Sixers are playing the Raptors (again) which I will get into more later this week but before that we had to discuss some general things looming over the team including Thybulle's vaccination status that makes him ineligible to play in nearly half the series, why that makes the Deandre Jordan signing even more of a head scratcher, Doc's too late to adjust style that has us scrambling to figure out the backup center position and which eastern conference playoff path was better for the Sixers chances to win the conference and potentially the finals. We also touched on lineup configurations that include possibly resting Harden and Embiid at the same time? At the end of this episode we marveled at how far Joel Embiid has come in his career and all of the adversity he has faced to become the scoring champion and potential MVP of the league. Some other things we tackled included BBall Paul finally getting some run and Tobias Harris getting some love from a national takes men that he probably did not deserve. Enjoy!

We have seen the movie before Sixers fans! The Sixers cannot figure out how to survive without Joel Embiid on the court and they need to figure it out fast before the playoffs. But hey at least they're shooting a ton of threes now?? Dave Early from Liberty Ballers and Clutch Points App joined me to talk about a lot of things including the weird parallels between the 2018-2019 Sixers and this year's team, Tobias and Maxey becoming more willing three point shooters, and Doc Rivers ruining my life by playing the corpse of Deandre Jordan 10 minutes every night. Next we talked about Doc to the Lakers or Jazz rumors and why he could be the perfect scapegoat (and a justified one) if the Sixers flame out early this year in the playoffs and potential beef between Morey and Doc discovered due to a member of the You Know Ball Discord. Then we discussed the first thoughts of doubt creeping into my brain about James Harden due to his passive play and potentially declining skillset and wonder if the Sixers are having buyers remorse or whether I am just panicking over a few bad games. We also talked about why the Brooklyn matchup doesn't seem as concerning for the Celtics, Sixers and Bucks as it did a few weeks ago ... Finally we closed out the episode ranking my Dreams and Nightmares scenarios for the Sixers in this year's playoffs. Enjoy!

Up top I solo ranted about Sixes head coach Doc Rivers post game comments, the end of the James Harden honeymoon, the Sixers recent loss to the Detroit Pistons and what it really says about the team. Next I was joined by Clippers writer and podcaster Rob Flom to talk about what feels like the beginning of the end for Doc Rivers as Sixers head coach following the team's loss to the Bucks where Joel Embiid questioned his rotational decisions. We also talked about Big Wos' from the Ringer's comments from an anonymous Sixers player who told him some not great things about the team and Doc losing the locker room. Next we talked about another massive collapse by the Jazz vs. the Clippers and the 3-5 NBA teams who are most likely to blow it up after this season. We finished the episode talking about our contender tiers in the Western Conference and revisited our pre-season award predictions, some of which we might have actually got right! Enjoy.

HEAT PACK GOING UP. We mostly laughed at the Miami Heat for this entire episode for their fraudulent basketball team and culture as they fall rapidly down the Eastern Conference standing. We also discussed the future of their "star" Jimmy Butler who may be forcing his way out of his fourth NBA team after trying to fight his coach. After the Heat pack session we discussed the Eastern Conference race for the one seed including some talk about the Bucks, Celtics, Nets and of course the Sixers. We then discussed who we think will come out of the Western Conference including the Suns, Grizzles, Warriors, and the Lakers fighting to keep their play-in spot lol. We finished the episode talking about the stupidity of All NBA voting and why one of Jokic or Embiid being left off first team is extremely stupid before picking our first, second and third all NBA teams. Enjoy!

Also I was joined by Maxwell Baumbach aka @BaumBoards joined me to talk about the recent Sixers recent stretch which including impressive wins over the Cavs, Mavs and a disappointing loss to the Toronto Raptors. We discussed many things including the frustration of not seeing the Sixers young back up centers get a chance over washed Deandre Jordan, Thybulle and Tobias never being good during the same game, Kevin Durant calling Joel Embiid the MVP of the NBA this season. Next we discussed the top 2022 NBA Draft prospects who are currently playing in the NCAA tournament including Chet Holmgren, the most polarizing top draft prospect in years. We also discussed the other top prospects including Jabari Smith, Jr, Paolo Banchero and Jaden Ivey. Lastly we talked about a few prospects the Sixers could target at the end of the first round if they keep their first round pick this year.

I was joined by my Twitter friend @TheEMart to talk about the Sixers embarrassing loss in Ben Simmons "return" to Philadelphia. We discussed the atmosphere around the city and the game and how it might have distracted everyone from the task at hand. We then went in depth on Harden's first bad game with the Sixers and talked about why it isn't the end of the world but still is somewhat concerning due to his spotty track record in some big games. Other topics included the Sixers defensive issues against jump shooting teams like the Nets, why they are still in a good position despite one game, the team coming out flat in big games during Doc Rivers era, and why this wake up call might be necessary before the playoffs. We finished off the episode talking about which teams the Sixers could face in the first and second round, a new playoff format that could create some added drama and E-Mart gave us his master plan to fix the NBA.

Matt aka @PanasonicDx4500 returned to discuss the latest in Sixers, Slop and plenty of sidebars about random shit. Up top we talked about the rumor brought up by trusted NBA insider Andrew Bogut about Bradley Beal leaving the Washington Wizards this offseason for the Sixers and why the Sixers shouldn't think twice about it if it is true. Next we discussed the last two games of the Sixers season, one against the Miami Heat that never actually happened, and another against the Chicago Bulls that definitely did happen. We also talked about the Sixers casual dominance with James Harden as they extended their record to 5-0 when he plays. Also role players and why they don't matter as much anymore! We finished off the episode talking about Embiid in the MVP race vs. Jokic and Ben Simmons making his return to Philadelphia on Thursday by .. sitting on the bench? Enjoy.

Steve Lipman from The Gastroenteritis Blues podcast and Liberty Ballers joined the podcast to talk the undefeated James Harden, Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid era Philadelphia 76ers. We discussed Maxey's insane star leap breakout playing off James Harden and why he has exceeded even our wildest expectations in year two. Next we talked about not feeling bad about the Sixers even when they are trailing by double digits for the first time .. ever? Of course we discussed the never-ending Tobias Harris issue and how it is starting to even visibly frustrate his superstar teammates. We also discussed the Deandre Jordan officially becoming a Sixer, the history of buyout signings, Paul Milsap needing to be out of the rotation entirely, Georges Niang becoming a Sixers role player legend, and whether the Sixers defense is a real problem. We finish the episode discussing our old friend Ben Simmons who has yet to play a game for the Brooklyn Nets.

My old friend and podcast co-host Jayson Buford from music blogs such as Pitchfork, GQ, Rolling Stone and the Knicks blog Posting and Toasting joined me to discuss all things Sixers, Eastern Conference and Knicks. We discussed the first game of the Sixers-Knicks home and home series and why the new look Sixers are going to be extremely hard to stop. We tried to figure out if Harden and Embiid are the best duo in the NBA right now and the results might surprise you!! Other topics included: Maxey thriving and Tobias struggling to adapt, the Sixers pursuit of an extremely washed Deandre Jordan, the real contenders and pretenders in the Eastern Conference and a slight rant on the media coverage of the below average Lakers. To end the episode, Jayson told me why he is out on Thibs as a coach and we discussed the possibility of Zion Williamson heading to the Knicks.

We break down the Sixers elevating their play to match Harden, improved passing and ball movement, and the new dynamic duo of Harden and Embiid. We also talked about reduced pressure on Doc’s all-bench lineups, the continued struggles of Danny Green, and Tobias Harris adjusting to his new role and improving his play. Lastly, we talked at length about all of the ways Harden will improve the Sixers and line-up options that will maximize our chances to win a championship.

On this episode I was joined by Draft Twitter friend and podcast host Chuck aka @ChuckingDarts as we revisited the 2013 NBA draft AKA the Giannis Draft but more importantly the first ever draft of the Process Sixers era. This will be the first edition of the ongoing series called the Reslopables where I review old drafts, free agency periods, and trade deadlines and look at how they shaped the NBA.
We talked about everything surrounding this draft including why this draft was thought to be so weak at the time, the lack of a true consensus number one overall pick and some draft takes that aged like milk and some others that aged like fine wine. And of course we touched on how half of the league, including some risk taking general managers, missed out on Giannis Antetokounmpo who went on to become one of the greatest players of all time. We ended the episode by redrafting the lottery. All of this with the benefit of hindsight bias. Enjoy!

We also analyze Morey’s trade media appearances following the Harden trade and his mysterious “buyout imminent” comment, Zach Lowe’s Harden trade conspiracy theory, and Harris and Thybulle’s offensive roles on the Embiid-Harden Sixers. Finally, we speculate over Doc River’s importance as a coach and whether he actually matters now, and who we would do and don’t want to see the Sixers play in the playoffs.

Twitter friend @ChillStableGuy aka Jack returned to the podcast to discuss the fall out from the Ben Simmons for James Harden trade. We discussed the insane media reaction to the trade, the narrative that the Nets actually won the trade and why the media cannot have a single rational thought about James Harden. We also discussed not having to worry about Ben Simmons anymore and why the Sixers defense might be a bigger concern than their offense for once. We ended the episode wondering if this trade means the end of the process.

We talked about what it could take for the Sixers to get James Harden this week vs. the offseason, where all the slop is even coming from and the insane idea that Embiid and Harden would not work together. We also touched on the first two real trades of slop season! A trade machine warcrime from Portland's new GM and also a whatever trade from the Cavs and Pacers.

I TrillBroDude, would like to formally apologize for suggesting that Tyrese Maxey should be included in any trades at any point. He is now 100 percent untouchable.
Bryan Toporek from Bleacher Report joined me to talk about a ton of stuff including the weird Sixers week both on and off the court. We talked Maxey's upside and why he will probably be nearly untouchable in any Ben Simmons trade. We also talked about the upside and also the potential disastrous downside of Ben Simmons returning to the Sixers. We then talked about the latest trade slop regarding James Harden, Bradley Beal and what other smaller moves could be made in a week at the trade deadline. Plus will the Sixers try to dodge the tax and ruin my life even more? Enjoy! Also I do not know how to video edit yet so please excuse the clip around 1 hour and 30 minutes where we had a little freeze up. Baby steps.

We ran through some fake trades including ideas Tim has for his Detroit Pistons involving former Sixer Jerami Grant and of course a few around Ben Simmons. We then talked about the latest in the James Harden saga that will now be taking over my life until at least the summer it appears. We also discussed the worst episode in the Ringer's "NBA Group Chat" history in which the hosts slander Tyrese Maxey and just make stuff up. Enjoy

For the first You Know Ball live video podcast I had on recurring guest Nihilist Bucks (AKA NBA insider Craigory Smith) for some fresh hot trade slop. First Craigory told us about a big name NBA player who could possibly be available before the trade deadline! It's pretty shocking. Next we discussed the latest Ben Simmons rumors (kill me) and the potential for a James Harden sign and trade this summer? After that we ran through some other hot trade rumors about the Los Angeles Lakers (Westbrook for Wall 2.0?) Houston Rockets (Eric Gordon, Christian Wood), Boston Celtics (Marcus Smart, Al Horford), Washington Wizards (Spencer Dinwiddie) and more.

BUT FIRST, MORE SLOP UP TOP. We dissected Daryl Morey's interview on Mikey Miss and talked about a few things that he could be hinting at as far as trade targets on the Kings, Hawks and maybe one other team/player that could be involved. Most importantly we tried to figure out who is the "top 40" player that Morey is talking about? We also touched on a report by our guy Keith Pompey, Jason Dumas' appearance on Si6 where he spilled some more information including one heavily discussed player who the Sixers are 100 percent not interested in. Next we talked about Embiid's dominant performance against the Orlando Magic and why he could be the MVP of the league despite the calculator boys crying about this. We discussed how he stacks up against Jokic and Giannis and why the narrative is so important for the award. Plus, where does Embiid rank amongst Sixers players of the last 35 years? Lastly we gave Seth Curry his flowers because he his in the middle of the best season of his career and the tide amongst Sixers fans seems to be turning against him for some reason.

Another week, another slopfest. But first, the Blue Chew Review of the Week. Next on this episode we had on Brenden Nunes of the Kings Herald, Kings Pulse Podcast and the Sacramento Bee to talk about a possible Ben Simmons (and Tobias Harris?) deal to the Kings. We discussed every aspect of why a deal could happen and why the Kings and Sixers demands in negotiations could prove to be too much for the other side. Would the Kings let a deal fall through because they are unwilling to move Tyrese Haliburton? Will the salary matching be too difficult? Would Ben automatically become a top 3 all time Sacramento King? I also made the argument for why I think this is a perfect destination for Ben despite the fact that he wanted to play for the other California teams. Finally we wrapped up the episode talking about a few other trade targets for the Kings that could move the needle.

MORE TRADE SLOP FOR THE PIGGIES. Atlanta Hawks reporter Pat Benson from SINow joined us to talk about the funniest possible outcome to this entire Ben Simmons saga where Ben ends up on the team that he melted down against in the playoffs. We also talked about the recent Cam Reddish to the Knicks trade and what it means for the Hawks plans moving forward. Next we talked about why John Collins for Ben Simmons trade makes sense for both teams but why I am skeptical of the on court fit for both teams as well. We ended our conversation with a mock trade negotiation acting with me as Daryl Morey and Pat as Hawks GM Travis Schlenk ... btw I clearly won. Finally just like every podcast we finished talking about Bill Simmons. We will be back with more trade slop next week from the perspective of the Sacramento Kings. Enjoy and ... GO BIRDS BABY.

Marty Teller (@MWTeller) finally returned to the podcast to talk about all the latest rumors surrounding Ben Simmons and the Sixers. We talked about a ton of stuff including: Hawks wing/big John Collins to the Sixers, where local and national insiders are getting their information from during the Ben Simmons saga, and Tobias Harris possibly being on the move in addition to Ben. Marty gave us one important insight from his sit down lunch with Sixers POBO Daryl Morey that might show you how the Sixers are approaching this season and team building around Joel Embiid in general. We also dove into the concept of the Sixers taking upside swings on young talent like Kings guard Tyrese Haliburton, Hawks wing Cam Reddish and another young player that Marty thinks could be available at the trade deadline. Trill gave his list of “former stars” that could have a career resurgence with the Sixers similar to Demar Derozan’s return to relevance with the number one seed Chicago Bulls. Finally we gave our prediction on what we think happens at the trade deadline. Will this ever end? ENJOY.

Matt aka @PanasonicDX4500 and I talked about everything going on with the Sixers and a ton of other random sidebars. Topics included Jason Dumas’ latest Ben Simmons report, the Kings possibly being open to moving De’Aaron Fox or Tyrese Haliburton, the undefeated Dan Burke era, the Sixers five game winning streak, Joel Embiid being dominant again, Tobias vs. Sixers fans and way more shit I couldn’t fit in here.

Andrew Unterberger (@AUGetOffMyGold) from the Rights to Ricky Sanchez podcast joined me for a positive conversation where we talked about all the good things with the Sixers like adult human beings with normal brains. First we talked about not living and dying with every regular season game like it’s life or death this year and how we should do this more often! Then we talked about some things we saw from the Sixers inspiring wins against the Celtics, the crushing loss against the hospital Hawks, a dominating victory against the Wizards and …. Basically the Sixers need to shoot more threes than long twos imo. After years of being the anti Tobias guy AU actually defended Tobias and his performance this year? We ended the podcast talking about a bunch of silver linings that the Sixers can take from this weird long covid season. Once again sorry for the audio Enjoy!

Steve Lipman (@SteveJLipman) from Liberty Ballers and the Gastroenteritis Blues podcast is back on to remind us that time is a flat circle and Ben Simmons is still a Sixer. We reviewed Daryl Morey’s first year as Sixers GM where he made some good moves, some “almost” moves that drive us nuts, while also providing a lack of creativity and possibly overvaluing Ben Simmons’ trade value. Next we dove into the mysterious case of the December 15th Woj Bomb that came and went with no explanation. We also gave our opinions (that constantly change every week) on Kings guard De'Aaron Fox coming to Philadelphia in a trade after Brian Windhorst said he’s available. We also discussed the return of Kyrie Irving which destroyed Trill’s conspiracy theory from last week’s podcast. Lastly we touched on Bill Simmons “apology” for the infamous racist Joel Embiid impression by Jackie Mac that Trill posted to Twitter. Keep in mind we recorded this on Monday before Joel Embiid destroyed Freedom and the Celtics.

Derek Bodner (@DerekBodnerNBA) joins us this week to discuss his fantastic newsletter The Daily Six, his departure from The Athletic, Matisse Thybulle's awkward fit, and the uphill battle of building a championship caliber team around Joel Embiid. In the second half of the episode Derek responded to some listener questions from the You Know Ball Discord and offered some insight into the front office of the team. (Please keep in mind that we recorded this episode before the Sixers great shorthanded win vs. the Celtics on Monday.)

THE DAY WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR IS HERE ... and it probably means nothing. Cliff aka @_YoCliff from the SI6 podcast returns! To start this episode we talked about some conspiracy brain shit inspired by Woj and Zach Lowe's Ben Simmons trade report from Friday. Specifically focused on why Woj used the term "top 25" player in the report. We also asked why does one star NBA player's name keep popping up in reports this week after no news for months? Could it be connected?? Am I losing my mind? Yes. We then bounced all around because I have severe ADHD and talked everything from the Sixers win over the Warriors, a crushing loss to the Grizzles, Tobias being awful to watch, the NBA being wide open, Doc Rivers driving us insane and more. I also asked Cliff if he would trade Tobias Harris for some NBA players that no one seems to want right now.

Mark Schindler (@MSchindlerNBA) from Basketball News, Indy Cornrows and more returns this week to talk about the Indiana Pacers’ “reset” and how possible trades involving Domantas Sabonis, Myles Turner, and Caris LeVert could shake up the NBA trade market and potentially effect the Sixers. We also touched on the Blazers falling apart, De'Aaron Fox vs Tyrese Maxey, the hierarchy of the Eastern Conference, Bradley Beal saying some more vague shit about his commitments to the Washington Wizards and everyone’s favorite CIA PSYOP Enes Freedom. Keep in mind this episode was recorded before the Sixers vs the Utah Jazz game that happened on Thursday night. And yes I might have jinxed Joel Embiid at some point. Enjoy!

Damian Lillard is a LOSER, Folks - Very Sad! (Feat. @Nihilist_Bucks)
Friend of the pod Nihilist Bucks returns to talk about Dame’s desire to play with “playoff assassin” Ben Simmons. We discussed the ins and outs of the CJ McCollum for Ben trade and why it might be harder to pull off than you think. We then discussed who should be buyers and sellers at the trade deadline, and we revisit our hot takes from Nihilist Bucks’ last appearance on the pod.

Dave Early (@DavidEarly) from ClutchPoints App and Liberty Ballers returned to discuss all things Sixers related including this past week from hell! First I ranted about Celtics Center Enes Kanter “Freedom” being the lamest man alive. We also talked Dave’s article about the Sixers missing Ben Simmons, why the team just isn’t clicking right now, why it might be time to move from Tobias Harris and recent reports about Kyrie Irving and Kemba Walker and how they could relate to the Sixers. Enjoy!

This episode I was joined by returning guests Austin Krell (@NBAKrell) and Eric Marturano (@TheEMart) to discuss the latest games from the Sixers including the very weird and frustrating double overtime loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Topics included some of the greatest hits including the Sixers lack of a closer, Doc Rivers weird lineup choices and the need to figure out flexibility at the backup center position before the playoffs. We also touched on D’Angelo Russell being annoying, the report that Ben Simmons is broke and might rejoin the team, Jaden Springer balling out in the G-League and Austin’s controversial opinions on which players he would take back in a Ben Simmons trade. Including some very hot takes! Enjoy.

In this episode Bryan Toporek of Forbes, Bleacher Report and the NBA Pod returned to talk about how the Sixers can build a title team around Joel Embiid (and Tyrese Maxey of course) and why I think it feels more possible than it did before the season. We discussed Bryan's article on Maxey's ascent as the Sixers starting point guard and how that helps the Sixers have more flexibility in a potential Ben Simmons trade. We then addressed the Jerami Grant for Ben Simmons rumors and talked about the weird fit with Joel Embiid that ball dominant scoring wings like Jerami Grant and Tobias Harris create. Next we guessed the 30 players on Daryl Morey’s Ben Simmons trade list and talked about who is definitely on there, who is definitely not on there and who could MAYBE be on there. I cannot believe we are still doing this shit lmao. Lastly we touched on why we think the Sixers might be closer to contending since the Eastern conference appears to be wide open this season.

Frequent guest Mike Chiodo returned to the podcast to talk about the Sixers recent five game losing streak which sucks but also doesn't really mean anything in the big picture. We then bounced around the league to check in on the teams that could potentially be interested in a Ben Simmons trade. We mainly talked about the teams falling apart like the Sacramento Kings, Minnesota Timberwolves, New Orleans Pelicans and Portland Trail Blazers. We discussed what it would take to make a trade work for all sides involved. Enjoy!

TYRESE MAXEY IS A STAR ... Or at least he will be. The Sixers are losing and it doesn't matter because Tyrese Maxey Better Sadly. This episode Ben Pfeifer formerly of the Prep2Pro NBA Draft Podcast joined me to talk about the ascent of second year Sixers point guard Tyrese Maxey. Ben was the one who introduced me to Maxey via his podcast in September 2020 so I wanted to get his insight on how he has improved and what his ceiling could be as a player.
We also talked about Sixers prospects Jaden Springer, Isaiah Joe, answered some questions from the You Know Ball discord and I asked Ben about some of his favorite prospects from the 2022 NBA Draft that the Sixers could target in the mid to late first round.

Next we talked about the Celtics and Sixers complete opposite starts to the season and why things always seem so off in Boston. Lastly we discussed Doc Rivers one major strength as a head coach.
The second part of this episode will be released later in the week and will include our thoughts on the ongoing calculator boy vs. real hooper culture war and we will discuss some of our favorite hoopers of all time.

We touched on the massive improvements from the bench, Sixers young guys developing and the almighty BALL MOVEMENT. Next we touched on how the Sixers face an uphill battle when it comes to rebuilding themselves into legitmate contenders. Lastly we bounced around the Eastern Conference and gave our thoughts on the surging Heat and Bulls, the non invincible Brooklyn Nets and the crumbling Celtics. Enjoy!

On this episode I am joined by Sixers Twitter friend @RansomCozzillio to discuss the Sixers weirdly disappointing 3-2 start to the season following another near collapse vs. the winless Detroit Pistons at home. All the depressing stuff that has happened to start the season had us thinking ... what if the Sixers just pulled off a sneak tank instead of killing their franchise player for a mid tier playoff seed and a likely first or second round exit? We are clearly doing so well mentally. We talked about the history of sneak tanking in the NBA, the highs and lows of pulling off a sneak tank, and how hard it would actually be to convince Morey, Doc and Embiid to actually go through with it .... but this is my podcast where I create my own reality so please just hang with me through this ridiculous fan fiction.

On this episode I opened by ranting about the Sixers second embarrassing loss of the season, this time against the New York Knicks. I touched on Embiid playing through injury and the Ben Simmons haters/stans. Hang with me as I just let the thoughts flow baby. Next me and @Nihilist_Bucks spit some hot takes about the first week of the NBA season. They’re over the top and absurd but deep down we really believe them at least a little bit. We talked about the Lakers, Thunder, Pacers (?), Heat, Nets, Bucks, Raptors and Sixers. Also can’t wait until everyone clips these in a month and we sound like total idiots. Some already aged poorly! Enjoy!

Well, here we are, another epic Sixers collapse! We weren't going to record an episode after this game because it's only the second game of the season ... but we just had to rant about the Sixers blown lead in the last five minutes of their home opener vs. the Brooklyn Nets and touch on every single thing that went wrong down the stretch. I won't spoil anything other than what is indicated in the title of the episode so enjoy the madness!

This episode Dan Volpone from the Gastroenteritis Blues podcast and Liberty Ballers joined me to talk about our favorite thing in the god damn world, BEN SIMMONS BABY. Ben kind of showed up to the Sixers last night randomly and didn’t tell the team or his agent Rich Paul? We are just as confused as you are. We discussed the situations in detail and also gave our thoughts on the team turning down offers for CJ McCollum and Malcolm Brogdon and Caris Levert. We then actually spoke about the Sixers playing a basketball game? The Furkan Korkmaz and Isaiah Joe era is HERE! We talked about why the two young role players signal a change in philosophy from previous teams and how it could help with or without Ben Simmons on the team. But also ... don’t overreact to a preseason game. ENJOY!

This episode Twitter friend and normal man @Chillstableguy joined to talk about his recent viral tweet where he took his old Ben Simmons jersey and used it as a diaper. We discussed the reaction to the tweet and why it might have officially sealed Ben Simmons fate of never returning to the Sixers. Less importantly the sixers played a basketball game without their three best players and it went poorly. We get mad at Doc for not playing Isaiah Joe more and talk about the surprisingly good performance of new Sixer Andre Drummond and the struggles of Tyrese Maxey and Shake Milton. Lastly we talk about the Ben Simmons saga AGAIN.

We riffed on many things including the Bucks finally exorcising their playoff demons, the Sixers never being able to overcome their own playoff demons, George Hill being an asshole who hates the Sixers, coach Bud overcoming fraudulent accusations, the scary deep Brooklyn Nets and the media's love affair with Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat. The whole episode had a pretty chaotic energy. Enjoy!

Old friend @MDelNBA returned to the podcast for a very funny episode where discussed the most pressing issues in the NBA. Mainly JJ Redick retiring from the NBA to hang out with his podcast co-host Tommy Alter full time. We also talked about Doc Rivers, Daryl Morey, Joel Embiid and the rest of the Sixers lying about wanting Ben Simmons back on the team and why we need to just move on from the situation. We also discussed the anti vax wave among players in the NBA, David Griffin being a bad GM and weirdo, bootlicking NBA journalists, and Blake Griffin's comedy career. ENJOY!

I apologize for Zo’s audio being quieter than mine. We were working on Spotify greenroom (I need a new computer so I can record on desktop again!) for the first time and ironing out some issues.
On this episode I was joined by Twitter friend @Tweets_By_Zo who you may know from the Rights to Ricky Sanchez podcast, the Corner Three Newsletter and his new Eagles betting podcast with Bleeding Green Nation Odds and Endzones. We discussed whether Ben Simmons will actually report for training camp next week or ever play for the Sixers again or if he is just bluffing. Next we talked about the lies from Doc Rivers and Stephen A. Smith on First Take and some other fake Ben Simmons rumors from Twitter. We basically tried to wrap our brains around the entire thing and our brains hurt now. Lastly I asked Zo his prediction for this Monday’s Eagles vs. Cowboys showdown.
In the next segment Rockets fan and blogger @Itamar_17_10 joined me to discuss the absurdity of a John Wall for Ben Simmons trade that was reported earlier this week. We sent NBA reporter Chris Sheridan to jail too. Disclaimer: The You Know Ball podcast does not support prison or the prison industrial complex, this was just a bit.

Most importantly we discussed Sixers beat writer Keith Pompey becoming Twitter's main character on the 20th anniversary of 9/11 due to some very weird tweets and podcast clips. Next we discussed the ongoing never ending saga of Ben Simmons and the Sixers and we ask ourselves .. did the Daryl Morey and the Sixers fuck up this offseason? We also talked about some potential star indicator stats from Tyrese Maxey that might suggest his ceiling is even higher than we anticipated. Charles Bassey weirdness is also mentioned! FINALLY we talked about the 1-0 Philadelphia Eagles including their impressive win over the Falcons, Jalen Hurts star potential and why the next two weeks are incredibly crucial for the Eagles playoff hopes. ENJOY!

No Sixers talk this week, no Ben Simmons talk. Just our Philadelphia Eagles baby! Eagles podcasting GOAT John Barchard (The Bell and the Birdmen podcast) joined me to talk about why he thinks the Eagles could shock the sports world and win the NFC East this season. We discussed Jalen Hurts proving the doubters wrong, Howie's potential comeback SZN and the advantages of a new coaching staff/new look offense. We also did a deep dive on John’s “Two QB Theory” that he believes will revolutionize the NFL possibly this season or sometime in the near future. Finally John gives his season predictions for the eagles and the rest of the NFC East.

The Ben Simmons trade request finally came out and it's ... a lot to unpack. Returning guest Dave Early from Liberty Ballers and I talked about potential Ben trades and how everything could go down. We then talked about why it is high unlikely that Tyrese Maxey's is actually included in any trades despite the fact that his agency Klutch Sports seems to be using him for leverage. We wondered: will this create a war between the Sixers and Klutch? Dave and I also touched on how the Blazers trade for Larry Nance, Jr. could have influenced the timing of this trade demand ... And why Danny Green's candid conversation with Howard Beck actually makes a lot more sense post Ben Simmons trade demand. Enjoy!

Joel Embiid signing his four year Supermax extension with the Sixers! Summer League thoughts on Tyrese Maxey, Isaiah Joe, Jaden Springer, Paul Reed and more. Former Draft Twitter darling Grant Riller signing a two contract with the team and the team's reported interest in veteran stretch 4/5 Paul Millsap.

But of course up top we discussed yet ANOTHER Jason Dumas report about Ben Simmons cutting off contact from the Sixers and explain why we just want this whole saga to be over. Next we talked about the Sixers signing of Joel Embiid’s best friend Andre Drummond and former Utah Jazz sharpshooter Georges Niang, and Danny Green and Furkan Korkmaz both returning to the Sixers! Lastly we touched on how the rest of the East is looking after free agency including the Bucks, Nets, Heat, Knicks, Bulls and Celtics.

Bryan Toperek from Forbes, Bleacher Report and the NBA Podcast returns to discuss the draft including our reactions to the Russell Westbrook trade, how it could effect a potential Bradley Beal trade and the Sixers selections of Jaden Springer, Filip Petrušev, Charles Bassey and undrafted free agent Aaron Henry. We also discussed Ben Simmons still being a Sixer and whether we think he could start the season on the team due to the lack of interest from around the league and the reported underwhelming returns. Next Bryan explained why a Kyle Lowry sign and trade to the Sixers is highly unlikely due to salary cap rules which could lead the Sixers to looking elsewhere for a veteran point guard. Lastly we discussed a few different targets that the Sixers could go after in trades and free agency.

Ryne Jones (@RyneJ___) joined me to discuss the middling Celtics season and why everything seems to be going wrong for the Beantown ballers while everything seems to be going right for your Philadelphia 76ers. We also discussed the Sixers Ben and Dwight pairing issue, going small ball five in the playoffs and how George Hill (if he is alive) might be able to fix the Sixers bench units. Lastly we touched on how the Sixers stack up against the rest of the Eastern Conference in a playoff series including the Celtics, Heat, Bucks and finally we ask the burning question ... will anyone beat the Nets?
