Today’s episode sounds a little different. I sit down for a unique conversation about the upcoming Warriors season — part basketball talk and part experiment in how we talk about basketball.

We break down the state of the team — from moves like adding Al Horford to re-signing Jonathan Kuminga — and debate whether Golden State has one more deep run left in the tank.

The 49ers pulled off a magic trick against the Rams, but the Giants… well, let’s just say the rabbit never came out of the hat. We debate whether the Giants’ core is built to win, or if - in the words of the great Denny Green - they are who we thought they were.

"Is this Giants team built to last—or built to frustrate? We break it down one struggling bat at a time in this week’s ‘Play or DFA,’ then pour one out for the Oakland A's and reminisce about the 2014 World Series.

Steph’s hammy gave out, and so did our playoff dreams. Join us as we vent, rant, and process the Wolves series the only way real fans can—by blaming role players and convincing ourselves we’ll run it back next year.

• Position group strengths and weaknesses
• The elephant in the room aka Brock Purdy contract extension
• Way too early 2025 game-by-game predictions
