In a week where the talk of the sports world will be who gets the best draw in the FIFA World Cup (which we discuss) and the College Football Playoff, the NBA Cup is still trying to find its own footing as the knockout rounds are set. Adam Murray and Andrew Riche, THE NBA-Team, are back together after traveling the world (or, at least, one of them did) to play catch-up on the last couple weeks of the regular season. Are the Raptors and Pistons for real and the Knicks and Cavaliers are just happy to play the tortoises to their hares? Is it too early to declare that the geriatric L.A. Clippers' season is already dead on its feet? Is it possible for the Chicago Bulls to trade their best scoring guard and become a better team in the process? Riche and Adam also discuss the long-term dominance of the Thunder, the joyful transformation of the Miami Heat offense, soft tissue injuries, Lane Kiffin to LSU, and more! So suit up and take it out in episode 369 with the NBA-Team!

Andrew and Adam find some bright spots for each team early on in the season. Of course this was taped prior to the recent firings/high profile injuries...but those are negatives, so we're just going to overlook that for now. Enjoy!
