Super Summer Pod #2: The NBA Goes Full Chaos Mode

On this episode of The Drive & Dish NBA Podcast, hosted by Kevin Rafuse (@rafusetolose) and Justin Cousart (@JustinContheAir), the guys start the show by reacting to the news that the Kawhi Leonard trade is on hold for now. Why the return to Toronto makes sense for both sides, but if there should be any worry long term amid the NBA's investigation. The guys also break down the Ja Morant trade and if this really makes sense for Portland. Next, LeBron James announces that he is leaving the Lakers. A quick look back at his tenure there and the moves the Lakers have made in the aftermath of the news. As LeBron's destinations focus on Philly, Cleveland and Miami, the guys debate which destination makes the most sense. Philly meanwhile shocked the league by trading for Jaylen Brown as Paul George ships up to Boston. How we got here and how this changes the Sixers timeline. Cleveland meanwhile has re-signed Donovan Mitchell to a long-term extension and the guys discuss what other moves the Cavs could have on tap besides LeBron. In Who's Ballin Who's Fallin, a supermax extension in San Antonio for Wemby, Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo fight in Vegas and the continued impacts of the second apron. Finally, another round of Immaculate Grid. Listen to the show wherever you get your podcasts and watch the show on YouTube!
