Shea and Jason celebrate San Antonio Spur Chris Paul for passing Jason Kidd to reach number two on the all-time assists list, and ponder whether he’s the best NBA player to have never won a ring. Meanwhile, Ja Morant swears off dunking and then delivers a savage double clutch reverse slam over Kristaps Porzingis in a Grizzlies win over the Celtics, Kings coach Mike Brown harps on “possessions”…26 times in a row, and Joel Embiid looks formidable with a 31-point, 12-rebound, 4-assist showing on the road against the Bulls. Plus, the guys wonder if what Thunder ball stopper Lu Dort is doing can safely be called defense, object to Jordan Poole’s splashy new 3-point celebration, and give a throwback shout to lifetime Knick fan “Tim” Chalamet.

Shea and Jason salute the Atlanta Hawks for taking down the league-leading Cleveland Cavaliers on their way to clinching their NBA Cup group, and make a case that Trae Young is playing the best basketball of his career right now. Meanwhile, the Wizards go winless in November (aka No-win-ber), the Rockets play themselves back into the spotlight, Jazz coach Will Hardy calls an ill-advised timeout, and New York Knickerbocker Mikal Bridges finds his jumper. Plus, the guys say “no” to NBA Cup point differential rules, say “yes” to Dyson Daniels’ new nickname (“The Great Barrier Thief”), and give LeBron James a Nipsey Hussle tribute for grinding out a 1,243-game double digit scoring streak. Elsewhere, Jason and Shea reflect on Deadpool & Wolverine and Friday Night Lights. "Texas Forever!"

Shea and Jason salute Victor Wembanyama, Jared McCain, Jalen Johnson and the wave of young NBA talent making the leap to the next level this season. Meanwhile, the Pelicans are officially off the rails – losing 11 of their last 12 games, Jokic and Giannis prove you can never count them out, and the Pistons are suddenly looking like an actual NBA basketball team. Plus, the guys ponder the latest changes to the All-Star format, cheer OG Anunoby’s 40-point explosion as the Knicks blowout the Nuggets, and contemplate if what the NBA Cup really needs is a bare-chested Adam Silver.

Shea and Jason celebrate Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson for leading his squad to a perfect 15-0 start, and into title contention. Meanwhile, newly returned Joel Embiid can’t seem to arrive anywhere on time or pull the Sixers out of their current slump, Sacramento King De’Aaron Fox is everywhere all at once, and the Blazers prove they’re not “losers” after coach Chauncey Billups’s choice words. Plus, the guys have had it with last-2-minute reports, and respond to the news about Inside the NBA finding a new home…at ESPN. All that, and a whole bunch of “your mom” jokes.

Plus, Giannis pulls the classic handshake pull move after elbowing Jaylen Brown in the head, and the guys wonder which team out of the Knicks, Bucks and Sixers are poised for a comeback following a shaky start to the season.
