Talk • 66 min • 1 season, 10 episodes
Episode synopsis
After discussing Rich’s busy day ahead of All-Star Weekend, the guys get into some NBA incentives (7:44): first, a possible fix to the draft that would help with tanking. Rich has a great idea, but Max wants to remind everyone that perfect is the enemy of good—we just need some improvement. Next, Max pitches an incentive-driven fix for the All-Star Game (30:35). Rich agrees; however, he still wants to look at the bigger picture and make sure that everyone is thinking about the future. Finally, the fellas touch on James Harden’s recent comment on loyalty (49:13), Evan Turner’s comment about fitting in, and rotary phones!
