LeBron on the trade: "First time I heard it, I thought it was for sure fake, thought it was a hoax, people messing around or whatever. But then when AD Facetimed me, I talked to him for quite a while, and even when I got off the phone with him, it still didn't seem real."

JJ Redick on Charles Barkley calling him “a dead man walking”: “I didn’t make it all the way through the clip, to be honest with you…I literally don’t care - I have other thoughts but I don’t care.” Lakers play the Hawks tonight (but not on TNT 😎)

At 11th in the West, the Suns are a great example of why blaming the head coach is often not a real fix - and in fact may end up exposing even bigger issues. @sichrismannix.bsky.social & I discuss on Sports Illustrated’s latest Open Floor pod: If you were running things in Phoenix what would you do?

On Open Run, SGA reacts to criticism that OKC is not the kind of “marquee” team the league was hoping for at the NBA Cup. Shai: “when we get to the top of the mountaintop, they’ll have no choice but to listen and pay attention.”

NBA Legend Oscar Robertson told us on Open Run that the on-court flow between Dame and Giannis is “not where it should be, but it’s getting much better.” Great stuff from the Big O on comparing the #Bucks Star duo to him and Kareem.

Should the #Nuggets take a gamble on Jimmy Butler? On the Sports Illustrated Open Floor pod, Chris Mannix makes his case for the Nuggets to swap Butler & Michael Porter Jr, but I’m worried about giving MPJ up for a rental. (Still, I do agree the Nuggets *should* be trying to win now with Jokic)
