S6 Ep39: Harden's rolling, Tatum's coming back & NOBODY's ready for what's next

from The Hoop Genius Podcast · host Hoop Genius

The East is wide open, and the West might be too. Mo Mooncey and Coach Brendan Suhr break down the biggest questions that will define the rest of this NBA season, starting with whether James Harden can finally shake his playoff reputation after a blistering 5-1 start in Cleveland. Is this the best chance he's ever had to win a ring?Then they go deep on a question nobody's really answering: can the Pistons or Spurs reach the Finals without any real playoff experience? Coach Suhr has a strong take - and Mo might have an even stronger one when it comes to Wembanyama and the Spurs' ceiling. Plus, the Jayson Tatum return conspiracy theory is building and the evidence is hard to ignore. Is it happening?They also get into why the Houston Rockets' front office has failed this season despite having months to address the point guard hole, the Charlotte Hornets' stunning emergence as a legitimate force, why the Bucks keep winning games they're supposed to be tanking, and who deserves Coach of the Year. Mo and Coach don't agree on everything - and that's what makes it worth listening to.🎧 Listen to the full Hoop Genius Podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & all platforms.📺 Subscribe for new episodes 2x a week.This podcast is brought to you by NBA2K26:https://nba.2k.com/2k26/buy/
