In this episode of Moodswings, Liv Moods opens with a deep dive into the ongoing debate around Nikola Jokić and whether he should be considered the face of the NBA. While she argues that Jokić is statistically unmatched in every major category since the start of the decade, she breaks down why the league and its media machine will never position him as the face — and why he genuinely doesn’t care either. Liv also reacts to Jamal Murray’s 50-point performance and pushes back on the idea that Jokić has “always” had help, explaining why this team looks different than years past thanks to the evolution of Aaron Gordon, the emergence of a real backup center, and a fully healthy, locked-in Murray. The show shifts to the Clippers’ late-night decision to send Chris Paul home, prompting a full-scale Liv Moods rant on incompetence, accountability, and why the organization’s reputation is “shot to hell.” She then breaks down the MPJ–Cam Johnson trade, explaining why Denver won the deal even with MPJ thriving in Brooklyn. Liv also dives into the viral situation surrounding Dylan Gabriel’s fiancée and the Browns, emphasizing how online comments can unintentionally expose locker-room conversations. In Driven Opinions, she answers fan questions on Marvin Mims’ under-usage, Sean Payton’s play-calling, her favorite cheat meals and TV shows, and the patience required with David Adelman as the Nuggets deal with injuries. The episode wraps with an NFL weekend preview featuring high-stakes matchups with playoff implications, including Ravens–Steelers, Colts–Jags, Bears–Packers, and Texans–Chiefs.
