Controversial Rookies, Controversial Teams, a Mailbag, and How Teams Make Cuts: John shows he'll give us the closest look behind the curtain of running an NBA franchise that we’ve ever seen. To start John and Nate discuss some of the rookies who will over- and underperform their draft slots and debate three West playoff contenders whose fortunes they disagree on this season. Then a mailbag from listeners, including the definitive answer on the value of midrange shots that will put an end to all discussion of this issue forever, how important ball movement is for an offense, what John thinks of his PER metric almost 20 years later, and whether Knicks fans have anything to look forward to this year. We finish up with discussing how cuts are made in camp. What kind of influence do coaches have, what happens if you have to convince the owner to eat guaranteed money, and whether it’s better to have a solid 15-man roster coming into camp.
