Coach Nick and Andrew “Combo” Salop kick off the 25–26 season live: the Jonathan Kuminga contract standoff, why his non-rim paint and rim finishing numbers clash with a bigger role, and whether a sign-and-trade (Suns/Kings?) makes sense. Then we dig into Mike Brown’s Knicks—Princeton touches, two-guard fronts, handoff chains, and how a real Brunson–KAT two-man game changes their ceiling. We react to ESPN’s Top 10 (Steph over LeBron, Wemby at 5), plus Michael Jordan to NBC and what he’ll actually bring on air. The Cade Cunningham debate returns: can you be Top 10 if you’re below-average at the rim? We also hit defensive “peel-to-corner” rotations, Horford’s fit, and why watch-party season is back.
