The Shot Clock Pod - 24 Minutes on Steve's Latest 13 Rules
The NBA preseason is underway, and Steve Purciello is back with a fresh batch of 13 Rules: Random NBA Thoughts. Jose Salviati and Steve have 24 minutes on the clock to break down the league's biggest storylines: the second apron threatening the Knicks' title window, Jalen Duren's awkward $200 million reunion in Detroit, Kawhi's return to Toronto, Dusty May's tough draw in Dallas, whether Anthony Davis and Trae Young can make Washington watchable, Jokic's aging Nuggets, why Steve is NOT buying Luka's Lakers, and the baffling Ja Morant-Damian Lillard backcourt in Portland.
