Vernon and Jacoby briefly go through last night's games, including Anthony Edwards’s clutch performance versus the Clippers, Malik Monk’s shot at Mike Brown, and how the Thunder have turned it around since losing to the Bucks in the NBA Cup (01:01). They then discuss how the trade deadline could completely reshape the Western Conference, as well as the importance of veterans and the contribution of role players in the playoffs (25:11). Next, they debate whether Steph Curry is destined to finish his career with this version of the Warriors and question why Bradley Beal has a no-trade clause (35:22). Also, they go through Coby White’s dunk on Wemby, Kawhi’s comments on Jeff Van Gundy, and what would it take for the Heat to trade Jimmy Butler to the Grizzlies (53:08).
