    Episode 350: The 7th Annual Wins Draft
    Oct 21 2025
    On the 350th episode of the Underdog NBA Show it is time for the annual tradition. For the seventh year in a row Tyler and Zandrick draft all the NBA teams, split by conference, based on how many wins they feel like they will have. Fresh off the closest draft in history (a Tyler 4 win victory) Tyler gets the prize of drafting first in the East, which will likely cost him the whole contest. Inflection points include, Zandrick's dogged love of Philly, Tyler having no belief in Charlotte, Tyler believing the Knicks and Nuggets will play with the playoffs in mind and Zandrick feeling strongly about the Celtics.
