Show notes
On today's show Andrew and Ben begin with a discussion of Ben's midseason awards at the Washington Post, including Deni Avdija on a Jimmy Butler trajectory, close encounters with the goof troop Wizards, a Kon Knueppel podcast appearance, a warped lugnut adventure and sixth man of the year, most improved criteria, the clear answer to coach of the year questions, and more. From there (55:00): Renewed questions about the 65-game rule and awards, will guaranteed contracts survive the next CBA?, Ja Morant concerns, AD second opinions, Sixers orthopedist stock, and a Knicks swoon. At the end (1:30): Reactions to a new rock bottom for the Bucks and Giannis, and a listener has questions about Andrew's podcast with KOC this week.
