#1457 - Buckets & Tea NBA Show - COVID, Kyrie, and Calendars (with Kris Myers)
This week, special guest Kris Myers joins host Comedian Cathryn Naiker to talk about how Omicron is taking over the NBA. Adam Silver's statement about how we have to learn to live with COVID and how that will affect players, coaches, and games throughout the season - how will this affect the playoffs?
Then we talk about Kyrie Irving and the desperate Nets, and how Kyrie was immediately put into Health & Safety Protocols once being cleared to play. How will he find a rhythm or play himself back into game shape only on the road?
Who is our sneaky team to make it to the finals or go deep in the playoffs, a team we didn't see coming?
In our Raptors Homer Moment we talk about games delayed and how frustrating it is to not be able to get into a rhythm between COVID and other basketball-related injuries.
Then, we talk about Gary Trent Jr and the unanimous most improved Raptor so far this season, and look back at the Norman Powell trade as ultimately a good trade.
In the Hot Girl Summer Nick Nurse Highlight of the week, we look back at the "Happy & Angry at Refs 2021" calendar Cathryn made for Kris!
