Blazers SOLD. Are They On the MOVE? | Joel Embiid INJURY UPDATE | Dr. J vs. LeBron James in the Tourney of Moves
from Locked On NBA – Daily Podcast On The National Basketball Association · host Locked On Podcast Network
We've got an update on Joel Embiid's recovery. Head coach Nick Nurse gave us some positive news, but the timeline for his return is still very much up in the air. We'll discuss how many games Embiid needs to play for the 76ers to be a legitimate threat in the East and whether the team should start preparing for life without him, just in case.In other big news, the Portland Trail Blazers have officially been sold to Tom Dundon, the owner of the NHL's Carolina Hurricanes. This move has some fans feeling a bit uneasy, especially after reports surfaced describing him as a very "hands-on" owner. We'll debate whether an activist owner can succeed in today's NBA or if this is a potential red flag for the franchise's future.Finally, we're wrapping up the thrilling first round of our "Tournament of Moves" to determine the greatest signature move in NBA history. We've got some incredible matchups, including Dr. J's iconic scoop layup against LeBron James's powerful tomahawk dunk, and Kobe Bryant's unstoppable baseline fadeaway versus Kevin Durant's slick hesitation pull-up.
