Vincent Goodwill is joined by Isis “Ice” Young, as he appears every Wednesday on the Good word with good will podcast, and the two open the show by responding to NBA.com’s survey of GMs in the NBA. Why are they picking the Celtics to repeat? How did Jayson Tatum win ‘best small forward’? And what does Shai Gilgeous-Alexander need to do to win the MVP award this season?
After talking about the Mavericks, who have a lot of depth after adding players like Klay Thompson and Spencer Dinwiddie but will be without Dante Exum after the Australian guard underwent wrist surgery, Vinnie and Ice talk about the Orlando Magic’s defense and their need to add a point guard to their starting lineup.
After last night’s win over the Connecticut Sun, the Minnesota Lynx earned a spot in the NBA Finals against the New York Liberty. These are the two best teams in the league in terms of record, but the Lynx have had the Liberty number this season. Find out who Ice predicts will win the series and what to look out for.
Finally, the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame class of 2024 is getting ready to be inducted this weekend, and Vinnie has thoughts. Vince Carter and Chauncey Billups make sense, as two players who may be underrated for their greatness, but Michael Cooper? Walter Davis gets some love as a dominant goal scorer who played in a league that was very different from today.
