The NBA-Team Podcast
Low Tide
Season 12, Ep. 386
•
When there are more stories about the NBA Players Association and Adam Silver and the League itself rather than the Players and the Performances...and the alleged push towards the playoffs that was supposed to happen, that's not a good sign of where things are right now. First Adam talks about Anti-Tanking, Anti-Load Management and the "65 game" rule that has disqualified a true contender, then Andrew and Adam talk through some Western Conference Playoff matchups. Enjoy!

26:29||Ep. 400Adam finishes his off-season solo trilogy which we do believe has kind of wrapped up. Outside of RFAs, all the top, middle, and most of the lesser Free Agents have found homes. So we left off literally seconds before the bombshell Jaylen Brown trade....we now pick up where we left off with the rest of the signings, Adam's thought on the Brown trade, and....whatever's left to put a bow on the season. Enjoy !

396. Big Game Brunson Brings the O'Brien Back to the Big Apple
49:16||Season 12, Ep. 396Start spreading the news! The fat lady has sung, Hell (or is it Hell's Kitchen?) has finally frozen over, and the New York Knicks, led by an unflappable starting five and point guard Jalen Brunson, defeated the young, talented San Antonio Spurs to win the franchise's first NBA Championship in 53 years! I know what you're thinking: How did we get to this point with a second-round point guard leading the Knicks back to the top of the NBA? Adam Murray and Andrew Riche, THE NBA-Team, are here to deep dive a shockingly short but close NBA Finals with some twists, turns, and a ton of missed shots. Was this a good lesson for Victor Wembenyama in his first Finals appearance, and what was the actual lesson? Who will get a statue built in front of the Garden first between Brunson and O.G. Anunoby? Was all of the decades of suffering and big moves for Towns and Bridges worth at the end to get this banner? Riche and Adam also do their Gone Fishin' sessions for the Knicks, the Spurs and the Thunder and do a preview of the NBA Draft later this month. So suit up and take it out with the NBA-Team!

Teams who, in their mind, started the season with championship aspirations (GSW/LAC)to teams to had very little day one support (CHA/PHX).... And these teams were all over the power rankings map all season long....it's not hard to be jumbled in the middle when the basement dwellers are so far below, and the actual championship contenders were so far ahead. . . Teams covered are: MIL, DAL, GSW, CHA, MIA , TOR , LAC, PHX. Enjoy !
394. 2026 NBA Finals Preview
24:08||Season 12, Ep. 394The countdown to extinction is almost over, as the NBA season has FINALLY (literally) come to its endgame with a kinda sorta predictable NBA Finals match up, but one that the league has been waited many years to advertise. It will be the Alien himself (generational superstar Victor Wembenyama, fresh off of dethroning the defending champion Thunder) as he leads the San Antonio Spurs against a talented, efficient machine in Jalen Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns, OG Anunoby and the New York Knicks. Will we see a repeat of their last Finals showdown in 1999 and another monster Spur superstar will tower over all others, or will the Big Apple see their first NBA Championship since 1973? Does this Finals come down to the simple narrative of might over flight, or do the Knicks' surprisingly stout playoff defense have some tricks in store for Wemby and their physical guards? Find out here! So suit up and take it out, Finals-style, with the NBA-Team!
393. Gone Fishin' 2026: Winners Get Intros
01:03:42||Season 12, Ep. 393It's that time of the year where Andrew and Adam quietly put the season to rest for the teams who either weren't good, didn't try, tried too hard to not be good, waited too long to blow up their team (or is still waiting muddling on the bottom to start the rebuild) or somewhere in between. Not wasting any time, they get right down to business and wrap it up for BKN, WAS, CHI, NO, SAC, UTA, IND, and MEM. Enjoy !
