Episode Notes
The Gil's Arena NBA Trade Deadline Special as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew react to the BIG MOVES of The NBA Trade Deadline inside Gil's Arena and give their takes on the biggest transaction day of the NBA Season. They kick things off by reacting to Jonathan Kuminga finally getting released from the clutches of the Golden State Warriors franchise as the team shipped off their young superstar to the Atlanta Hawks alongside Buddy Hield in exchange for Kristaps Porzingis and debate if this was a good move for the Dubs or just a simple salary dump to clear themselves of Kuminga. They then react to the Lakers finally making a move as the purple and gold aquired Luke Kennard to add to their collection of exciting whites and break down what the sharpshooter brings to a lineup with LeBron James, Luka Doncic & Austin Reaves. They then break down some smaller moves like the OKC Thunder's brilliant decision to trade for Jared McCain and the Minnesota Timberwolves decision to bring in Ayo Dosunmu before reacting to Shai Gilgeous Alexander going down with an abdominal strain, potentially putting his MVP Season and the Thunder's #1 seed in jeopardy. Finally, they react to Kawhi Leonard being added to the NBA All Star Roster, sparking a debate on if The Klaw will help the USA take down the World in the NBA's midseason classic and react to Cooper Flagg dropping a career high 49 points on Kon Knueppel to prove he's the best rookie in the NBA, discussing how Jason Kidd should stand on business over his decision to play Flagg at the Point Guard position early in his career.
