If it's gotta be clean, it's gotta be tied. It is the JR Sport Re Show here with you coast to coast. on the Infinity Sports Network. Man, we got so much going on. We got championship series and baseball.
We got Thursday night football. Baseball, football. We got NBA preseason action. We're now less than a week away. from the start.
A regular season. Gee season's gonna be long. Champ will get crowned this year. The funding of LeBron's contractors about Giannis. Sweet.
Got the olive to the color, don't look like they're slowing down any bit. We got candor and Houston. This whole thing is going on in the NBA. It's tape and it's tape coming back wouldn't stop this. Before we know, who knows?
To talk about the start of the NBA season, some of the storylines that we've heard, things that we might see. If someone very familiar with the NBA as a host, as an announcement doing play-by-play, joining us right now this Chris Monster story. Amen. I'm doing great, man. Excited for another season.
Maybe we'll see an eighth different champion for an eighth straight year. You know, the record now is seven different champions in seven different years, and that's the first time in NBA history. We know that with this season coming up, we've always had a lot of parody. You mentioned about the changes and how many champions. Do you expect the Oklahoma City Thunder, don't they have probably the best odds of coming?
coming through and maybe uh repeating. You know, I thought that when the Bucs won with Giannis. I thought that when the Joker won with the Denver Nuggets. Like, oh, look at how young those two guys are in this team. But I think it's a little different in this way, to your point.
When I look at the Thunder winning this season, it felt like they were ahead of schedule. Right? Like, I was like, all right, Shea Jones Alexander, yes, he was the MVP, but Chet Holmgren, you know, only playing, what was it, 39 games? J-Dubb, kind of looking like he still had another level to get to.
So the fact that they were able to win a championship without having Chet Holmgren at 100% and for most of the season. With having a lineup, you know, they had a starting lineup, I think it was over 20 games with no one taller than 6'6. Right. And now they've reloaded that roster, Isaiah Hartenstein and Chet Holmgren on the floor together. Like I kinda look at it as, well, if there's gonna be a team to repeat.
SGA is so healthy, so young, so focused, so determined. like this may be the overall group. that could get it done because all those guys are running it back.
Well, when you think about who can unseat them, just coming out of the West, where there are so many teams. You got the Denver Nuggets who have retooled. You got the Golden State Warriors. Yeah, they're old. The Clippers are also old.
The Lakers, you want to talk about old. We all know about LeBron James. Houston Rockets now added Durant. What team has the best chance of moving the thunder out the way?
Well, it's crazy. You didn't mention a team that's been in the Western Conference Finals the last two years and has arguably to face a league, right?
So I kind of look at it like this. I've had the privilege the last year of being around Anthony Edwards. you know, at all-star at Summer League and kind of seeing his intensity. He seems hungry, man. Like, you know, kind of seeing SGA get there.
Like, if you listen to the way that he talks, he's like, yeah, yeah, this is it now, right? Like, we're going to do this. And I kind of look at that team like, yo, they they really built around him and they have one of the highest payrolls in the NBA. But the Houston Rockets intrigued me the most. I know they lost Fred Van Fleet, and I think from a leadership perspective, that's a lot to lose.
But Al Purin Shingoon ran the point center. to perfection. And now he's got Kevin Durant out there. Don't forget, Alper and Shingoon. Was an all-NBA player last year.
You're an all-star. but an all-NBA center. Amen Thompson. Was an all-defensive team member who seems like he has all-star potential. And now you're adding Kevin Durant.
to that mix. I'm like, man, is if there's a team that I think is dangerous, I think the Houston Rockets are the team that it's like, oh, if they win, how did we not all see this coming with Kevin Durant being the missing piece? NBA announcer and broadcaster Chris Miles is joining us here on the JR Sport Brief Show. coast to Coast. When you think about the Los Angeles Lakers, we got the report via Shams that there's a possibility that we will not see LeBron.
At the start of the season, and maybe not until. This point Next month. What are your expectations with the Lakers? Oh man, wait and listen. When they made the Luca trade, and I was like, okay, this roster, they're going to need two or three years.
And when I thought they got Mark Williams, I was like, oh, maybe not. I look at this group, you know, Luka Doncic, all world and everything, an MVP candidate year in and year out. They just feel like After LeBron's retired or gone, or whatever's going to happen with him. I think they have to retool, and then they could potentially be a championship caliber team. I do not see it.
with Luca and LeBron and the way this roster constructed, I think they need something major to happen. me to look at them as contenders.
So when you ask that question, I go. They'll be fun to watch. They can't guard anybody. And Austin Reeves and Luka Doncicz-like, that's not, you look at the rest of the NBA, that's not getting it done. Oh, ouch, ouch.
They're similar, I feel, like, on the in the East. There have been so many rumors about Giannis and when he's going to pull the escape cord. Is it going to be mid-season? Is it after the season? He says, I'm committed now, but I may ultimately change my mind.
When do you think Giannis is going to be done, or is he going to finish there in Milwaukee? I'm at the point now where I think there's no way he finishes his career. in Milwaukee. And I thought this summer was it. At the trade deadline without giving out any information, man, I kind of felt like it was happening.
But now the Bucks are like, look. We got both of your brothers on the roster. You can't go anywhere now. We're basically the Etches and Kumpos. We can even change the logo for you, my friend.
Anything you want, we want to keep you. But when I look at it from a basketball perspective... I'm like, okay. Let's say you're the San Antonio Spurs. And you call up the Milwaukee Bucks.
And you go, hmm. We got too much and it doesn't fit.
So here's Six first round picks. Uh deer and fox. Harrison Barnes.
Well who else would you like? Right? And they're like, ah, we want Dylan Harper. We don't do it. I feel like the Bucks It would Have to make that trade.
And I think that would shake up the NBA in a way that's just insane. But it's like, I look at the San Antonio Spurs and I'm like, They're right there, and I would love to see Giannis and Wimby and anybody that's left Castle. uh get the job done in San Antonio. Oh man, that what what a What a long team that would be. I can't even think of a term.

Follow and listen to 15 Inside the Daniel Marsh Murders on the Free Odyssey app or wherever you get your podcasts. Be quite a sight. Chris Miles is here with us on the JR Sport Reef Show. We know Wen Benyama. Coming off of that, that well, he had that blood clot in his arm.
And now he's gained weight, put on muscle. He's training with monks. We expect Good things. And then we also have some other young teams. The Detroit Pistons, I mean, they really pushed the Knicks.
There's some real expectations from the Pistons. We see the Orlando Magic adding Bain to the mix. What do you think about some of these young squads that are on the up and up?
So here's the thing that's crazy. I look at Uh, like the Spurs, I'm like, I'm watching every single Spurs game. League pass, I'm down then, I got to see what happens here. But from the piston standpoint, the Jay Nive news that he's going to miss a month. really stung.
But like can Asar Thompson in Ron Holland take a step? Take a leap. And don't forget, like, they lost Malik Beasley, who was taking game within potential shots for them last year. And I'm like, oh. That's right.
They added Duncan Robinson from Miami to get that outside shooting.
So I think the Pistons, there's a lot of question marks there of can they take that leap and jump into the top four in the East and remain there? I think it's really the Knicks and the Cavs 1-2. Right? Like, I think the Knicks and the Cavs are the two teams where I'm like, I think they got the right formula for this season to have the best record in the East because of the Celtics and their injury situation with Jason Tatum. But Pierre Lando magic.
I was waiting for them to ascend last year. And I think they nailed the draft. I don't know if you've paid attention to Jace Richardson. I saw him as high as like the fourth best prospect on some boards. I didn't really feel that.
But he's lights out. And I used to call some of his high school games at Columbus High School down there in Miami with the Boozer Twins. And I didn't see this coming. But if you go look at his clips from the preseason and from Summer League, I had his first Summer League game, he's lighting up instant offense off the bench.
So Desmond Brain Bane brings outside porn. But I think Jace Richardson coming off the bench as a rookie could also provide that for the Magic if that's actually the case. They solved their biggest problem from last season. Outside shooting with their two newcomers. And you got to think, Bancaro and Wagner and Suggs.
only played six games together last year. If those guys can stay on the floor together, I think the Magic should be a top four team in the East. Chris Miles is joining us, NBA host and announcer. You talk about young guys, let's move ahead to a bunch of old dudes. The Golden State Warriors are full of them.
The Clippers are full of them. Are these two organizations that are just kind of Just kind of waiting in the water, hoping for something to hit. It seems more likely that they just get blown to hell in a season or two. You know what's so interesting being around the Clippers? Like, it's almost like you forget that Ty Lu is the coach.
And if you're not really dialed into the NBA, you don't understand that impact of, okay, as long as he's the coach. They're going to have a good game plan. They're going to put this together. And guys are going to maximize their potential.
So, you know, obviously I used to cover the Washington Wizards when Bradley Beal was there. And I always thought like, look, if you're looking for him to be the man, you're not going to win a championship. But if Bill can fit in as your second, third, fourth guy. uh you you're cooking with fish threes, right? And I think the Clippers may have that.
Like Norman Powell, how great he was last year. I think Bradley Beal can take a page out of that. And I think Bradley Beal's actually a little bit more talented of a scorer than Norman Powell.
So if you put him in that same role. With this team, James Harden is going to be the You know, second best passer, I think, that feels played with, because obviously I can't do that to my guy, John Wall. Um But I really do think that Clippers team, it's like, are they too old? Or when do they have the gas in the tank? They surprised me last year, but I can't just overlook them, even though I don't view them as contenders.
They also added John Collins. I can't forget John Collins Golden. Weird little tweaks from like they should be able to beat teams you don't think they could beat on a nightly basis. A last question for you, Chris. Man.
We see Tatum working out. This guy is dunking a basketball. Do you think we see Tatum? At some point this season. Yeah, yeah, Eric.
So the surgery he had The timetable is way, we go torn Achilles out for the year, right? Like it happened in the playoffs against the Knicks. We all witnessed it, but he had the uh Achilles there surgery. within the next 24 hours, which is insane to think of. And it's the same thing that Aaron Rodgers had, right?
It's this new age way of going about it where the timetable seems to be I think they said it was like February or March. But when I see Tatum dunking. Ever I've watched those You know, videos like that, there's a brutal film over and over again. It's his, he's still like. hanging on the rim and looking down.
And you're like, can I land? Right? Like, and when he touches the ground, he's like, Am I good?
So when I see that, I'm like, all right. This is November, December. He might get over that in January. Then he's got to get in condition. Then you just pay this man, what, over $300 million?
Are you going to risk that?
So I think we got to see where the Celtics are. When you get to January and February, I think if the Celtics are hovering anywhere near 500, I think we see him back on the floor. If it's a lost season completely, especially in the win-loss column. Um, I I don't think so.
Okay, well we'll see. We know that we got a season that starts in less than a week.
So many storylines. We got Westbrook who's back, and Durant trying to stick around long term with Houston. What is Wenbenyama going to be like? There's a lot of questions and a lot of basketball to watch. Hey, Chris, we really appreciate your time, your expertise.
Tell everybody where they can follow you online, keep up with you, all that great stuff. Yeah, at Chris Miles TV on Twitter and Instagram. And you know, hopefully it's another great season for the NBA because I mean, I think we're really in a golden era right now with the way these guys are playing. Yeah, a lot of names, a lot of personalities. We got stars that are still stars sticking around.
We got young stars. It's certainly. A great mix. Hey Chris, I'll catch you soon, okay? Tide, my friend, thank you.
