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.

129 - Kemba Walker Trades, NBA All-Star Draft, Kyrie/Kawhi Injury, Spurs Trades / With ESPN.com's Adrian Wojnarowski reporting the Hornets have put Kemba Walker on the chopping block, Andy and Dan suss out potential landing spots and trade packages. Should the Knicks make a play for him? What about the Spurs? Or perhaps the Cavaliers? - Speaking of the Spurs, they announced on Wednesday Kawhi Leonard would be out indefinitely while dealing with a lingering quad injury. Are they in danger of ceding ground to the Timberwolves and Thunder without him, or will they hold on to the Western Conference's No. 3 seed? Should they possibly consider making a trade? And if so, for who? Tyreke Evans? Avery Bradley? Kemba Walker himself? - The Celtics are also without Kyrie Irving, for now, while he tends to a shoulder injury. Though this setback isn't considered serious, can Al Horford, Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum keep Boston atop the Eastern Conference if its point guard misses signficant time? - And finally, the NBA's All-Star starters are officially official. Andy and Dan talk about who they believe was snubbed and also draft their own roster. Be sure to let them know who has the superior starting five! - Oh, and there also might be some bonus Defensive Player of the Year talk as well.

123 - LeBron to Rockets?, NBA Christmas Day Primer, R.I.P. Hornets/Grizz Mailbag / Howdy, Hardwood Knocksers! Get ready to cover some serious ground in advance of the NBA's robust Christmas Day slate. - Who will win the battle of the unicorns, between Kristaps Porzingis and Joel Embiid/Ben Simmons, when the New York Knicks meet the Philadelphia 76ers on Christmas Day? Neither Stephen Curry nor Isaiah Thomas will be ready to rock for Monday's NBA Finals rematch, but can the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers still view this game as a barometer? - The Oklahoma City Thunder are getting frisky. They have the league's best defense, Paul George is shooting a little better, and their offense doesn't stink all the time. Can they stand up to the NBA-best Houston Rockets on Christmas? - Do you know what the Brooklyn Nets and Phoenix Suns have in common? They both have a better defensive rating than the Boston Celtics over the past 10 games. Can the boys in green steady their rickety, rockety ship while squaring off against the Wizards? - Watching the Los Angeles Lakers is fun. Watching the Minnesota Timberwolves is not—unless, of course, Jimmy Butler is going to work in crunch time. Who wins their late-night Christmas Day showdown? - Andy and Dan wrap things up with a mailbag the covers Brett Brown's future in Philly, Hassan Whiteside's injury, Dennis Schroder's trade value, the hoplessness of the Charlotte Hornets' situation and so much more. - But first thing's first: The Rockets plan to make a play for LeBron James this summer, according to ESPN.com's Zach Lowe.

This week we had to watch the Raptors. They are playing at such a high level we had to see if they are doing things that are sustainable. Are they? Yes! We had to see if they are doing things that if they keep doing them in the postseason will they present a different challenge. Are they? Yes! The Knicks look like a playoff team whether Kristaps Porzingis is playing or not. Are they one of the 6 best teams in the Eastern Conference? Not yet. But we must stay open minded because Kristaps Porzingis is a unique force and we need to see what they can make of that. With an addition of the right player could they enter a really positive chapter in their franchise history? Yes! Are any of the Nets players going to be on the next good Nets team? We discussed it.

TRADE #SZN is just about here. - As of Dec. 15, most of the free agents who signed deals over the summer will be eligible for relocation, with a select few others (sup, Nikola Mirotic?) joining the fold on Jan. 15. Though freshly signed pacts aren't always at the center of negotiations, the rumor mill reaches fever pitch for everyone, both staples and newcomers, given the wider scope of options available to buyers and sellers. - Hardwood Knocks has called upon Bleacher Report's Grant Hughes (@gt_hughes) to help us through the speculative bunk. He discusses which players are most likely to be traded and where they might be headed, in addition to providing some other ancillary players and teams to keep an eye on as we near February's deadline. - Marc Gasol, Deandre Jordan and all the usual suspects are here, but Grant and Dan stray off the beaten path as well, diving down rabbit holes of conjecture that lead them to Kemba Walker and Paul George, among others. - Finally, because Hardwood Knocks loves you all, we wrap things up with an extensive mailbag at the end—a segment shaped, and defined, and made possible at all, by you, our loyal listeners. - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes.

Hardwood Knocks already tackled the Western Conference, which you can, and should, and must, listen to here. Now it's on to the Eastern Conference—but not before we react to the Philadelphia 76ers trading Jahlil Okafor and Nik Stauskas to the Brooklyn Nets for Trevor Booker. - All 15 squads are covered—in random order—so you needn't worry about us leaving anyone out. Among the most pressing questions: Do the Boston Celtics deserve perfect marks? Who among the Charlotte Hornets, Miami Heat and Washington Wizards gets a failing grade? Is the Cleveland Cavaliers' recent tear a harbinger of things to come or merely a protracted blip on the radar? - Should the New York Knicks get a favorable grade for hovering around .500? How about the Indiana Pacers? Are the Milwaukee Bucks the biggest underachievers in the conference? Have the Orlando Magic screwed themselves during their latest nosedive? Do the Toronto Raptors warrant—gasp—a Celtics-esque grade?

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.

113 - Rudy Gobert Injury & NBA's Should-Be Sellers: Heat, Hornets, Clips, Knicks / This one's for the Luka Doncic fans. And the Michael Porter Jr. enthusiasts. And the DeAndre Ayton lovers. And the Marvin Bagley III apologists. - "Tanking" is an uncomfortable word for NBA teams—unless, of course, they're already tanking their brains out. (Sup, Sacramento Kings, Phoenix Suns and Chicago Bulls?) Ditto for the phrase "seller's mode." Squads don't want to admit they're throwing in the towel on this season, especially so early in the schedule. But someone needs to be a grown-up and have this difficult discussion, even now, with the 2017-18 campaign fewer than 20 games old. - Fortunately for you, Andy and Dan are up to the task. - Rudy Gobert is the inspiration for this "Sell, sell, sell" slant. He's slated to miss four to six weeks after suffering a bone bruise in his right knee (goddammit, Dion Waiters). And knowing how the Utah Jazz handle injuries, he may end up missing closer to eight weeks...or more. And if he's going to be sidelined for that long, should the Jazz even bother trying to compete this year? Or should they enter seller's mode and seek to shed salary or absorb lengthier deals for first-round compensation? - And which other teams need to be asking themselves something along these lines? We know the Suns, Bulls, Kings and, yes, Atlanta Hawks are already there. What about the Dallas Mavericks? How about the Miami Heat? Or the Los Angeles Clippers? What about—gasp—the—double gasp—Charlotte Hornets? Should the New York Knicks ditch fake competency for authentic tanking? - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes.

FCP Ep. 41: Eastern Conference Updates and guest Nat Kitaw: Bucks Pistons Knicks Hawks Bulls Celtics Wizards Heat / We continue our in-season analysis. We share thoughts on the Eric Bledsoe trade and what might happen with Greg Monroe. We hand out our weekly awards and then get into team by team analysis. Why are the Bucks just a .500 team even though they have the most efficient offensive player in the league so far this season? What are the Pistons doing that is so fundamentally different from what they were doing last season? Are the Knicks doing sustainable things? Are the Hawks this bad? Are the Bulls doing right by Lauri Markannen? Is Brad Stephens into voodoo? What are the Wizards trying to be? Where did the Heat hunger go? Does it still exist? Then in our guest segment with Nat Kitaw we talk about positional gravity. Do big men that can shoot from three point range have more gravity than gaurds? The what to make of the Sixers roster decision as the date on which a Robert Covington renegotiation and extension can happen nears? All of this and more.

112 - The 76ers, Knicks, Cavs, Kevin Love, Grizzlies, Magic & Jazz Mailbag Party / History is about to be made. - No, the Golden State Warriors aren't going to win 74 games. 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. Another mailbag awaits next week. - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes. You can also find us on Stitcher and BlogTalkRadio.

107 - Grooming Kristaps Shouldn't Be THIS Hard: 2017-18 New York Knicks Preview / Carmelo Anthony is gone, which means the New Yorks are...doing what exactly? - We're not quite sure. - In order to find the answer, or something resembling an answer, we turn to James Marceda (@NBAInjuryR3port), the host of the Locked on Knicks podcast. - The Knicks, as he notes, are in this weird territory after dealing Melo but also giving $71 million to Tim Hardaway Jr. While most think they should tank, the importance of competing for something special during Kristaps Porzingis' third year in the league cannot be overstated. - No one's saying the Knicks will contend for a playoff berth. They won't. And if, for some reason, they end up entering the Eastern Conference's postseason picture, they should trade their way out of it. - But, at the same time, they need to see if Porzingis is good enough to carry a group of also-rans past the tanking horizon. That seems counterintuitive, knowing the Knicks need young prospects and the NBA's lottery format is set to change by 2019, but if he doesn't help them forge a discernible identity or show he has the skill set and durability to be The Guy, New York is in heaps of trouble. - Balancing this with roster-wide development is no doubt a tough task, though—particularly for the Knicks. Willy Hernangomez has already been displaced from the starting lineup, and Frank Ntilikina figures to be deployed sparingly. Does head coach Jeff Hornacek have the green light to prioritize the kiddies over the veterans? And will he? Or will this Knicks season be like so many others: pointless and painful? - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes. You can also find us on Stitcher and BlogTalkRadio.

FCP 034 – Knicks and Mavericks Updates / The New York Knicks and Dallas Mavericks each added a young point guard in consecutive picks in the NBA draft. Expectations are higher out of the gate for Dennis Smith Jr than for Frank Ntilikina although he was drafted after for him. Also the organizations could not be in different place. The Mavericks have a ton of stability while Knicks are just looking to emerge in the post Phil Jackson era. What do we expect from each of these teams. How much of his contract value can Tim Hardaway Jr return? What are looking to see from Kristaps Porzingis this season? Are we impressed with the season Harrison Barnes had last season? And which of the young Mavericks players are potential impact players for the franchise down the road? All of this and more.
