First episode of The Texas Triangle: an NBA Podcast providing analysis from the Lone Star perspective. Hosts John and Eric discuss the Mavs' playoff chances and roster construction while generally gushing about the phenom that is LUKA, the Rockets' draft situation, bizarre ownership/front office situation and roadmap back to contention in a post-James Harden world, and the Spurs' many looming crossroads this offseason like the futures of Coach Pop, Derozan, Rudy Gay & Patty Mills. Some fun little meandering off the path and discussion of the league at large, including the fascinating case of the ever-flightless Pelicans, player empowerment + superstar movement, and whether or not the players' union has tilted things to favor the top tier of players at the expense of some others' paydays. Also helpful pet care tips. Fun fact: we split one beer over the course of recording because we couldn't buy any more until noon.
