Central Division Preview with Cain Ross Oct 24, 2023

Show notes

International man of mystery and Pacers fan Cain Ross joins the show to chat the young movement taking place in Indiana, how the Cavs can capitalize on last year's 51-win season, the direction of this year's Bulls, and the questions facing Monty Williams in his first season with the Pistons.

We also discuss the Bucks for an appropriate amount of time and lament the inevitability of another Conference Finals appearance. Steve will probably like this.
