The Boxscore Geeks Show

We're back! We discuss:

  • The Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis signings in Boston and why both are bad, but Boston will likely still be good.
  • Briefly about Bronnie and how sports has a sad history of risk, even to the young and healthy.
  • We review a list of 101 NBA Nicknames (https://therookiewire.usatoday.com/lists/greatest-nicknames-in-nba-history/ thanks Thomas Neumann!) and prepare for a fun Tier game in a few weeks.

We're back to talk:

  • NBA Free Agency and why contract analysis is difficult -- unlike player evaluation.
  • Damian Lillard's current saga in Portland
  • Every, if not most, important free agency signing as of 7/11/2023. Some highlights:
    • Austin Reeves
    • Haliburton vs Sabonis
    • Brook Lopez
  • Why Andre Drummond's sentiment that being a good teammate in attitude matters, really, his stats just aren't as important as others in terms of pay in the NBA.
