5 Burning Questions Shaping the NBA | ALL NBA PODCAST

Adam Mares and Tim Legler break down the biggest NBA games and stories, from Andre Drummond and Kris Dunn’s “fake fights,” Luka Doncic torching the Clippers, and whether the Clippers can right the ship. The guys discuss Jalen Williams’ return to the league-leading OKC Thunder, the Raptors’ playoff outlook, Golden State’s trade needs, and how bad tanking could get this season. They dive into why the NBA Cup will finally matter, bold predictions for the Pistons as a potential 1-seed, and which young star; LaMelo Ball, Trae Young, or Ja Morant, Legler would start an expansion team with. They close with major trade predictions and three fake trades that could shake up the NBA playoff picture.
