In a week where the talk of the sports world will be who gets the best draw in the FIFA World Cup (which we discuss) and the College Football Playoff, the NBA Cup is still trying to find its own footing as the knockout rounds are set. Adam Murray and Andrew Riche, THE NBA-Team, are back together after traveling the world (or, at least, one of them did) to play catch-up on the last couple weeks of the regular season. Are the Raptors and Pistons for real and the Knicks and Cavaliers are just happy to play the tortoises to their hares? Is it too early to declare that the geriatric L.A. Clippers' season is already dead on its feet? Is it possible for the Chicago Bulls to trade their best scoring guard and become a better team in the process? Riche and Adam also discuss the long-term dominance of the Thunder, the joyful transformation of the Miami Heat offense, soft tissue injuries, Lane Kiffin to LSU, and more! So suit up and take it out in episode 369 with the NBA-Team!

It's only one month into the season, and we are already seeing pink slips being handed out, verbal shots being fired, and wild endings in the NBA regular season. But is it a lot of loud noises signifying nothing or will they have major ramifications in the league? Adam Murray and Andrew Riche, Place To Be Nation's NBA-Team, are back to round out the news surrounding souring superstars with low morale, the return of the random DNP's, and the firings of Willie Green in New Orleans and Nico Harrison in Dallas. Did they deserve to be let go, and was it possibly too little too late for both teams? Are the Kings on the cusp of a blow-up and our third coach firing of the season? Are some of the October front runners like the Bulls, Sixers, and Blazers falling back to their means or are they better than people think? Riche and Adam also talk about last Monday's wacky slate of games ending on buzzer beaters, Steph Curry torching the young Spurs in San Antonio, calf strains, and more! So suit up and take it in episode 366 with the NBA-Team!
