Full Court Press NBA Podcast Episode 93 – Offseason Updates for Detroit Pistons and Memphis Grizzlies / Detroit
Full Court Press NBA Podcast Episode 93 – Offseason Updates for Detroit Pistons and Memphis Grizzlies / Detroit made bold moves last season but it did not move the needle for them. Stan Van Gundy is out and Dwayne Casey is in. Also in is a new front office leadership. The Pistons seem to be gearing up for a serious season but it’s hard to know invested the new leadership is in this roster. They had a hard time filling up a brand new arena last season, so that seems to be at least somewhat a part of the objective this season. We tackle the big questions. The Grizzlies are going to try to chase a serious season also. Is it as simple as return Conley to the floor along with what looks like an upgraded supporting cast? We dive into all of this and more.All of this and more.Follow Dane on Twitter: @DaneMooreNBAFollow us on Twitter: @willis_glen / @LawtonWillis / @presspodcastLearn more about your ad choices.

NBA Tank-A-Thon With Keith Smith / Kevin had to take off so Justin brought on Keith Smith to talk about the NBA's tanking teams: Orlando Magic, Memphis Grizzlies, Atlanta Hawks, and Pheonix Suns! Keith is a Celtics fan so they quickly hit on their playoff situation without the stars but then get right back to the Tanks. They talk about which team could bounce back the fastest, if the taking is starting to be fixed, and which each team should pick between DeAndre Ayton Luka Doncic. They also hit Hot takes from Reddit where they Justin asks if Brad Stevens is coach of the year and if the Raptors are the most unlucky team in the NBA? Learn more about your ad choices.

135 - Trade-Deadline Wrap-up, Cavs Future, Knicks without Kristaps, Lakers Notes / Phew, well, that was something. - Despite plenty of people predicting a stagnant NBA trade deadline, this year's transaction party lived up to its usual chaotic billing. The Cavaliers completely re-made their roster on the fly—without giving up their Nets pick. The Lakers now have a clear path to two max-contract slots in free agency. The Knicks may have, possibly, for once, made a good trade. The Pistons beefed up their wing rotation. - Even the teams that didn't do anything substantive left a spate of questions in their wake: Did the Clippers make a mistake not trading DeAndre Jordan or Avery Bradley? Should the Thunder have acquired an Andre Roberson replacement? Were the Grizzlies foolish to keep Tyreke Evans? Did the Celtics miss an opportunity by not making a single deal? How about the 76ers? And should the Hornets have traded Kemba Walker rather than acting as buyers? - Bleacher Report's Grant Hughes (@gt_hughes) joins Hardwood Knocks to break down every single solitary storyline and wrinkle in the aftermath of another NBA trade deadline. From Jae Crowder's fit with the Jazz, to the Timberwolves inevitably signing Derrick Rose, to the Kings mucking up yet another series of transactions, we've got it all. We even squeeze in some talk about the Knicks' future in light of Kristaps Porzingis' season-ending injury. - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes.

The Grizzlies season is more than off track. What should be their objectives for the rest of this season?

126 - NBA Western Conference Report: HOU/LAL/UTA Falling, LAC/MIN/OKC/PHX Rising / Welcome back, Hardwood Knocksers! - Most of the NBA's teams have officially crossed the halfway threshold of their schedule, which can mean only one thing: Andy and Dan need to hand out midseason report cards. - We start in the Western Conference, where things have gotten a little weird and chaotic and, thus, awesome since our quarterpole grades. The Houston Rockets look human. The Utah Jazz appear finished. The Minnesota Timberwolves are surging. The Oklahoma City Thunder are kind of following suit. The San Antonio Spurs remain the San Antonio Spurs. The Golden State Warriors are still the Golden State Warriors. - The Phoenix Suns are sort of frisky. The Denver Nuggets are disappointing, as expected and exceeding initial impressions all at the same time. The Dallas Mavericks are embodying blah, while the New Orleans Pelicans have prime real estate on Mediocre Boulevard. The Portland Trail Blazers might have turned a corner. The Sacramento Kings and Memphis Grizzlies have not. The Los Angeles Lakers are no longer overachieving. The Los Angeles Clippers are rekindling their playoff hopes. - Almost needless to say, then, we have a lot of ground to cover and less than eternity to cover it. So let's get cracking! - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes. You can also find us on Stitcher and BlogTalkRadio.

So, you know, let's do that! - Hardwood Knocks will begin with the Western Conference's jumble of craziness. And in order to properly ensure the hottest takes, Andy and Dan are calling upon Associated Editor of Salt City Hoops Dan Clayton (@danclayt0n) to join the party. - All 15 squads are covered—in random, speaker's choice order, we might add—so you needn't worry about us leaving anyone out. Among the most pressing questions, though: Have the Golden State Warriors tried hard enough so far to get an A? Are the Houston Rockets the NBA's most serious threat to the Warriors' reign? Are the Oklahoma City Thunder better than their sub-.500 record suggests? - How do we grade the league's most injury-ravaged squads, such as the Denver Nuggets, Los Angeles Clippers, Memphis Grizzlies and Utah Jazz? Do the Minnesota Timberwolves deserve a passing grade? Are we prepared to give the Kawhi Leonard-less San Antonio Spurs an A? And what of the West's preeminent tank jobs from the Phoenix Suns and Sacramento Kings? Are the Dallas Mavericks tanking hard enough? Are the New Orleans Pelicans surprisingly good or right where they need to be? - All this, plus much more, awaits you in Hardwood Knocks' latest. So grab your favorite beverage and flavor of Doritos, strap in and open your minds. Because the #takez, they are a coming! - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes.

When it comes, we wanna wail MAAAAAIIIIIL! - In this week's Hardwood Knocks mailbag, our deep dive into listener questions leads to hypothetical trades for the New York Knicks, Los Angeles Clippers, Washington Wizards, Memphis Grizzlies, Portland Trail Blazers, Charlotte Hornets, Cleveland Cavaliers, Philadelphia 76ers, Oklahoma City Thunder and Atlanta Hawks. (Spoiler: Marc Gasol, DeAndre Jordan, Enes Kanter, Paul George, Carmelo Anthony, Marcin Gortat, Tyreke Evans and Tristan Thompson are all part of these imaginary swaps.) - Oh, but that's not all. - Andy and Dan talk about Avery Bradley's defensive reputation, and his on-off splits with the Detroit Pistons. And then they do the same for Marcus Smart of the Boston Celtics. They also break down the race for the NBA's Most Improved Player Award as well. Is it Kristaps Porzingis? Aaron Gordon? Victor Oladipo? Could it be—protracted gasp—Andre Drummond? - And by the way, if you find yourself wondering what's up with the Philadelphia 76ers, we spend ample time talking about them, too. - Is Ben Simmons on course to be one of the all-time greats? Is he already better than Joel Embiid? How do the Sixers fare when Embiid, Simmons and Robert Covington all play together? Will they ever trade Jahlil Okafor? And where should he go? Chicago? Atlanta? And, finally, will Markelle Fultz play at all this season? - All this, and so much more, is crammed into 73 legendary minutes of hoops talk. - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes.

116 - Memphis Fires Fizdale, Marc Gasol Trades, Lakers/Cavs/Celtics/Jazz Mailbag / David Fizdale is out as head coach of the Memphis Grizzlies. Assistant coach J.B. Bickerstaff is, for the meantime, in. - Figuring out what this means for the Grizzlies' future takes a couple leaps of faith. It doesn't seem to signify a teardown. Fizdale's removal comes following a 2-11 stretch and some feisty comments from Marc Gasol, one of the franchise's two primary cornerstones. Ousting the head coach reeks of an attempt to incite change for the sake of galvanizing the troops. - And what else could it be? The Grizzlies don't have the assets to launch an ideal rebuilding effort. Gasol and Mike Conley are their only meaningful trade assets, and neither of them is yielding a hot collection of picks and prospects at his respective price point. - Then again, the Grizzlies are 7-12, their playoff hopes fading fast. If they're still struggling to get their heads above water and/or stay healthy by January, it'll be time for a wholesale pivot—time to test the trade market on both Gasol and Conley and whoever else holds value outside Memphis. - Was firing Fizdale the right move? Will the Grizzlies re-insert themselves into the playoff conversation? Which teams could become suitors for Conley and Gasol if they don't? What does Memphis' long-term cap situation look like? - Answers to all these piping-hot questions precede an extensive mailbag that covers everything from Rodney Hood and Lonzo Ball, to hypothetical Cleveland Cavaliers trades and the Boston Celtics offense, to the Oklahoma City Thunder's malaise and Andre Drummond's reinvention. - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes.

115 - Hot-Seat Meter for NBA Coaches: From Doc and Kidd, to Donovan and Clifford / Seventeen NBA teams. Seventeen bad, to weird, to uncertain starts. Seventeen head coaches. - Sixty minutes. - An unknown number of jobs in jeopardy. - In the latest episode of Hardwood Knocks, Andy and Dan look at all 15 teams with records of .500 or worse, add in the Portland Trail Blazers and New Orleans Pelicans, and decide whether their head coaches should be worried about being canned before season's end. - A vast majority of these sideline-stalkers have nothing to worry about. The Los Angeles Lakers' Luke Walton and Memphis Grizzlies' David Fizdale are too new to their posts. They aren't getting the ax. Other clipboard-carriers have basically earned the right to keep their jobs as long as they want—such as Rick Carlisle of the Dallas Mavericks and Erik Spoelstra of the Miami Heat. A select few are simply coaching terrible teams that were supposed to be terrible (Sup, Dave Joerger?). - But these disclaimers don't apply to everyone. Nor do they necessarily inoculate each person they affect. - Will Fred Hoiberg last the year with the Chicago Bulls merely because they're as bad as advertised? Will the Utah Jazz resist reevaluating Quin Snyder's status because they lost players over the offseason and are slogging through injuries now? - And then we have the clear-cut cases—coaches indubitably on the hot seat: Doc Rivers with the Los Angeles Clippers, Steve Clifford with the Charlotte Hornets, Alvin Gentry with the New Orleans Pelicans, even Jason Kidd with the Milwaukee Bucks. Will they all last the year? - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes. You can also find us on Stitcher and BlogTalkRadio.

But you're knocking on the door of the next best thing: Hardwood Knocks' first-ever mailbag! - To start things off, we take you around the NBA with some quick-hitting news items: Robert Covington is about to be very rich, the New York Knicks may have passed on George Hill to sign Tim Hardaway Jr., and Chicago will play host to its first All-Star Game since 1988, when a certain GOAT was named MVP, in 2020. - From there, we get to your questions. That's right you, our loyal listeners, are now shaping the discussion. - Will the Cleveland Cavaliers even win 50 games? Should they be considering Kevin Love trades? Which projected playoff teams are in danger of falling outside the bubble? Is Andre Drummond really the best free-throw shooter in NBA history? Is this Memphis Grizzlies bench for real? - Who deserves to be the frontrunner for Most Improved Player more: Aaron Gordon or Kristaps Porzingis? Should the Utah Jazz be looking to make a trade? We answer all this while rapping about so much more. - Forgot to submit a question? Fear not.

FCP #040 Western Conference Updates Grizzlies/Thunder/Timberwolves/Clippers/Nuggets/Warriors/Lakers/Suns / We continue our in-season analysis. The Grizzlies look like a serious playoff team so far with impressive wins. Is their play sustainable? The Thunder are 4-4 entering play at Portland but look very good at times. Will they find a way to play together but let their star players still be themselves? The Timberwolves still have serious issues on defense it would seem. Are they going to be OK? The Clippers roster is losing a player to injury week by week. Can Blake handle the workload to keep them afloat without risking injury to himself? The Nuggets had a slow start but looked better in week 2. Will they make the progress they are hoping to make? The Warriors are the Warriors. But there are still interesting things upon which to focus. The Lakers and Suns are exceeding expectations in the win-loss column. What should we make of their play to this point in the season? All of this and more.Follow us on Twitter: @willis_glen / @LawtonWillis / @presspodcastFollow us on FaceBook: @fullcourtpressnbaRead more at http://fullcourtpress.libsyn.com/podcast#i94pjZTLxBqeuEKf.99Learn more about your ad choices.

LOCKED ON NBA - ESPN's Kevin Pelton early insights, trends and team thoughts / Kevin Pelton is one of the brightest minds in the NBA and he brings his insight to Locked on NBA. David Locke and Pelton start by talking about the Eric Bledsoe trade and the impact that will have on the Milwaukee Bucks. - The conversation moves to teams building around young stars and then to the early season trends including increased pace. Locke thinks that offensive rebounding has become more important than ever with the decrease in offensive rebounding around the league. - Pelton shares that stars aren't getting calls like they usually do and the impact it is having on some teams most notably the Thunder. - Is the play of Victor Oladipo and Domantas Sabonis an indictment on Russell Westbrook? - Then Locke and Pelton go rapid fire on teams touching on Boston, Cleveland, Toronto, Portland and Memphis - Today's show is brought to you by Seat Geek with the promo code Locked giving a $20 rebate on first purchase and Draft your daily fantasy game.

110 - Is This Real Life? Sustainability Index for NBA's Hottest Starts / If only every absurdly hot start to the 2017-18 NBA season could last forever. - Sadly, though, life on the hardwood doesn't work like that. Some blistering beginnings are for real. Others? Not so much. They're protracted smokescreens—players and teams capitalizing on fiery streaks and relative early-season laxity and unpreparedness from opponents. - Where do some of this year's most notable starts fall on the "Is this real life?" scale? - Andy and Dan tackle the biggest, baddest, bestest standouts, ultimately deciding whether they're flashes in the pan or signs of a new normal. - Yes, this means lots and lots and lots of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Ben Simmons talk. It also means we'll be cannonballing into the suddenly awesome Indiana Pacers and Orlando Magic. The Boston Celtics' defense and the Memphis Grizzlies' bench will be making cameos as well. So, too, will Ricky Rubio, DeMarcus Cousins and Anthony Davis' three-point shooting. And Stephen Curry's return to MVP form. And greatest-of-all-time-candidate Mike James. And Unicorn O.G. Kristaps Porzingis. And, well, you get the gist—we're burning through a bunch of topics. There may or may not even be a Donovan Mitchell tangent along the way. - Don't forget to check out the first part of this early-season series, wherein we deliver "Panic or Nah?" verdicts for the NBA's coldest starts.

We sing the praises of Mike Conley. Do they have enough 3-point shooting? Can the additions of Ben McLemore and Tyreke Evans help?
