77 - Bye LeBron(?): The Too-Early 2018 NBA Free-Agency Primer You Didn't Ask For / Pretty much every 2017 NBA
77 - Bye LeBron(?): The Too-Early 2018 NBA Free-Agency Primer You Didn't Ask For / Pretty much every 2017 NBA free agent you care about has signed a contract—except, for some reason, JaMychal Green and Nerlens Noel. But those are topics for a different day, in a different place. - Because right here, right now, in the world of Hardwood Knocks, we're turning our attention to 2018 free agency. - Correct: We're getting an 11-month jump on the process, in part because we can, but also beause this stuff already matters. The league is still reeling from the spending craze in 2016. Multiple sources claimed to ESPN.com's Tim MacMahon that the NBA is headed for a nuclear winter-style summer in 2018, with plenty of free agents expected to get "squeezed." - Who are those free agents? Which players suddenly aren't so likely to opt out of their contracts? Which teams will be the biggest offseason players? Where will LeBron James go? Is there any hope at all he'll stay with the Cleveland Cavaliers? Might he (pretty please) consider the San Antonio Spurs or Philadelphia 76ers? And what about the NBA's other top-20 free agents? Where will they all end up? (Yes, we go through all of them. You're welcome.) - All this, and more, awaits you in the latest episode of Hardwood Knocks. If nothing else, come for the free-agency speculation, stay for the chance to listen as Andy and Dan fly off the rails in real-time! - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes.

Will Carmelo really be on the move? / Sam Amick and Jeff Zillgitt break down some of the moves that could happen as we approach the NBA trade deadline. They talk about the possibility of Carmelo Anthony being traded and what it might take. They break down Anthony’s desire to win a title and how some seemed to think he was content with winning Olympic golds. The discussion then turns to what Anthony has had around him so far in his career and how much better he is when he is playing on Team USA as compared to his time with the Nuggets and Knicks. The guys then chat about the talks between the Philadelphia 76ers and the New Orleans Pelicans that center around Jahlil Okafor, the story that Sam broke at USA TODAY and how it could work for both teams. They then talk about the situation with the Chicago Bulls and how there seems to be a little disfunction with the team. They chat about Magic Johnson joining the Lakers as a consultant to Jeanie Buss and how that could affect Jim Buss. They quickly hit on the Cavaliers working out some guards who could be added to help in depth. Then near the end of the show, Sam brings in Bob MacKinnon, who coaches the Texas Legends of the NBA DLeague. They discuss Quincy Acy, who played with Legends for a few weeks. It’s a good story on what Acy did for the members of the team after he was called up to the Brooklyn Nets.

A rant on the New York Knicks' continued run of seeming incompetency? We've got that, too—along with so, so much more. - - Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
