  • Is Wemby Already Top 5, And What Is Even A GOAT Anymore?

    Is Wemby Already Top 5, And What Is Even A GOAT Anymore?

Coach Nick and Combo are back on the Monday live show with a three-course meal of NBA chaos. First up, the NBA Cup Final, Knicks pride meets the most box office player alive, and the inevitable question, is Wemby already Top 5 right now, and what does that mean for the GOAT debate when rings, eras, and “best of your generation” all collide. Then the show pivots into the foul-drawing rabbit hole, SGA’s landing space controversy, what “unnatural” actually means in real time, and why fans swear it happens every possession even when the numbers don’t back it up. Add in some rulebook talk, some coaching perspective on body control and contact, and a little vocabulary flexing, myopic makes an appearance. Finally, Coach Nick and Combo get into the Lakers-Suns madness, Dillon Brooks as the league’s premier instigator, why disrespect matters more than impact, and how one chaotic sequence can flip the energy of an entire game. Plus, super chats, quick hitters, and the classic reminder that Twitter is not a real place, it just feels like it is. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Did Grayson Allen Really Travel Or Is Everyone Wrong About The Rules?

    Did Grayson Allen Really Travel Or Is Everyone Wrong About The Rules?
    Dec 14 2025
    Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/CLNS and use code CLNS to get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup. Coach Nick and Combo kick things off with the Grayson Allen “travel” that broke the internet, including the text exchange where Combo just wanted a simple yes or no and got a dissertation instead. From there, Nick walks through the gather step frame by frame, explains exactly why it is technically a travel, and why expecting refs to see a 1/60th of a second pivot slide in real time is insane. They dive into why fans are still stuck on seventh grade PE versions of the rules, how the one foot step through has been legal for almost a century, and how interpretation of carries and travels has changed from Elgin to Harden to SGA. Then they zoom out to the bigger question, has the league made scoring too easy with less physicality, freer footwork, and more whistles, or are offensive players just that much better now? Along the way, Nick pulls out vintage clips from the 30s and 50s, rants about “AI slop” and reading comprehension on Twitter, and lays out his thesis that today’s officiating is actually closer to the rulebook than the old days that everyone romanticizes.

  • Anthony Edwards (Ethical) vs SGA (Unethical) And The NBA Whistle War

    Anthony Edwards (Ethical) vs SGA (Unethical) And The NBA Whistle War
    Dec 6 2025
    Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/CLNS and use code CLNS to get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup. Coach Nick and Combo dive into the Anthony Edwards free throw controversy, Mark Cuban stepping in on officiating, and why fans think stars like SGA and Luka are gaming the whistle. They break down whether today’s scoring boom is real skill or ref-aided inflation, how defenses are actually more sophisticated than ever, and why people still romanticize 80s and 90s “toughness.” The guys also hit LeBron’s new life as maybe the greatest third option ever, rookie of the year and Most Improved chatter, OKC’s defensive hacks, Miami’s insane pace, possible veteran trade targets, and how NBA coaches really decide substitution patterns.
