Robert Horry and the crew dive right into the Steve Nash firing in Brooklyn, and how the possibility of hiring suspended Celtics coach Ime Udoka is a move they are willing to make because Udoka got Boston to the Finals in his first season. And for Brooklyn at this point, they have nothing to lose and they need a leader.

Rob also reminds Kyrie that everything he posts is considered promotion due to the size and scale of his platform.

Rob is also really impressed by Kawhi Leonard and Zion Williamson coming into the season in such great shape and waiting to see what their games look like coming off injuries.
