From there, the guys get into the three big trades: Giannis to Miami, LaMelo to Minnesota, and Julius Randle to Brooklyn. They question whether the Heat have any real offensive identity with Giannis and Bam sharing the floor, and they are skeptical that LaMelo Ball can deliver when it matters most in a playoff series. The guys also dig into the Micah Nori situation in Portland, going after Tom Dunden for the disrespectful one-year deal with team options. On the draft itself, they share their biggest surprises, debate the Mavs taking Morris Johnson Jr. over Braden Burries, and break down the rookie sliding scale contracts pick by pick.
