This year's rookie class might have gotten a lot less buzz than in previous years, but a lot of them have had stand out performances through summer league so far. Matas Buzelis seems like a sneaky ROTY finalist, Reed Sheppard has been unstoppable, and many other rookies look like they'll impact their teams right away. The Win Projections for each team has been released, and there are some projections that stand out in a big way. OKC Thunder Over seems like the freest bet of them all, but look to The Celtics, Knicks, and Hornets as some other teams to consider smashing the over on. Enjoy!

The free agency pool might not be as exciting this year as in some year's past, but there have been some great moves already made to start off the offseason. Paul George joins Embiid and Maxey to create a pretty formidable big 3 in philly if they can all stay healthy. Dejounte Murray has found a new home in New Orleans, and Klay Thompson signs a 3 year deal to join the Mavs. Chris Paul has also been traded to the Spurs, which should give them a pretty excellent bench point guard. Enjoy!

The Finals are almost here! With the Mavs wrapping up game 5 last night, the Celtics and Mavs will face off in the Finals, and one of Luka or Jayson Tatum will walk away with their first ring. The Mavs have shown incredible resilience battling through three really strong western conference teams, but the Celtics should be getting a healthy Kristaps Porzingis back for Game 1. This series should be a nail biter, I have Celtics in 7. Enjoy!

The Minnesota Timberwolves accomplished one of the greatest comebacks in playoff history yesterday coming back from down 20 to beat the Nuggets in Denver and move on to the second round. The OKC-Mavs series has also been decided, and Chet Holmgren's 3PT shooting and rebounding helped lead to the Thunder's Demise. The Pacers vs Celtics looks like a 3-point shooting barrage, but still a series that Indiana will struggle to make competitive. Enjoy!

Denver and Minnesota seem to be some of the strongest team in the entire league right now, and its very likely the winner of that series is the winner of the championship. This episode, we give Big Picture thoughts on Round 2 so far and how we think these series will wrap up. Enjoy!
