Russell Westbrook Traded to Houston; Other Signings and News Jul 12, 2019

Show notes

Welp, time to record again. Russell Westbrook is traded….to the Rockets! We break down how he’ll fit in the Rockets’ system, whether the Rockets got better with this trade, and whether the cost to swap Westbrook and Chris Paul was reasonable. We also look at where OKC goes from here, and their options to either bring in another star to compete or go for the total teardown, plus whether Paul is long for OKC.
Then we break down the rest of the league news, including Marcus Morris’ decision to back out of a commitment to the Spurs to sign with the Knicks, how unlikely bonuses have been used to create more cap room, and everything else around the league the last few days.

Kawhi and PG Are Clippers: Every Angle for the Winners and Losers Jul 06, 2019

Show notes

Every possible angle on the Kawhi signing and the stunning trade of Paul George to the Clippers. First we look at what this team could be next year and what the next moves are in LA, followed by a look at Kawhi’s process and how he masterminded everything to get to this point. Then the ramifications for the Lakers as they miss out on Kawhi but sign Danny Green, KCP, and JaVale McGee, plus the Mavericks who miss out on….everybody. Then we turn to the crazy rollercoaster ride for the Raptors and their options going forward without Kawhi, despite having done everything right to this point. Plus a few other winners and losers around the league from this huge night as well.

2019 Free Agency Day 1: Every Deal, Every Team Jul 01, 2019

Show notes

The biggest episode in the history of Dunc’d On to discuss maybe the most ridiculous day in NBA history. We hit on every single deal, every single player, every single team involved in this wild day. From the Nets with Kyrie and KD, the Warriors sign-and-trade for D’Angelo Russell, the Sixers completely remaking their team, Miami’s sign-and-trade for Jimmy Butler and their mixed up, nixed trade with Dallas, the Pelicans acquiring JJ Redick and Derrick Favors, the Jazz with Bojan, Indiana totally remaking their squad with Brogdon and Lamb, the Bucks’ trade of Brogdon to Indiana and re-signing their other free agents, the Celtics and Hornets with Kemba and Rozier, Orlando’s interestingly uninteresting moves, the Knicks striking out, and a TON more.
