    200: 7/24: Marcus Smart Signs With Lakers + Which Teams Make Playoffs in East? & More
    Jul 24 2025
    We got some news and updates from both the NBA and WNBA. Coach James Young will cover it all with you on this episode.

    On our Tip Off Topics, Marcus Smart finds a new home in Los Angeles with the Lakers on a two-year deal. Kyle Filipowski was awarded Summer League MVP after posting remarkable numbers throughout the summer league season this year. In the WNBA, Jonquel Jones makes her return from injury and leads the Liberty to victory in their last game against the Fever. Also, the Wings upset the Storm in dramatic fashion on Tuesday with efficient performances from Paige Bueckers and Arike Ogunbowale.

    On our Award Tour, we take a look at all the odds for the teams in the Eastern Conference in the NBA to see if those teams will either make or miss the 2025-26 playoffs. It's going to be anyone's conference to take with the way teams are stacking up and with the amount of star players out for a significant period of time or even for the whole season.

    Lastly, on Coach's Scouting Report, we preview all three games in the WNBA. Coach will give you a best bet and some player props to look out for with each matchup.

    A ton of major updates and offseason moves took place over the weekend in the NBA as well as recapping the WNBA All Star Weekend and some upcoming action to go over. All will be discussed with Coach James Young on this episode.


    On our Tip Off Topics, Damian Lillard and Chris Paul decide to sign back with their respective former teams. Lillard heads back to Portland on a three-year deal and Chris Paul returns to the Clippers on possibly his last season in the league. In addition, Pelicans rookie Derik Queen had to undergo surgery that will sideline him for the next three months. Also, Coach provides his overall thoughts on the WNBA All Star weekend action and about their plea to the league with their warmup shirts saying “Pay Us What You Owe Us”.


    On our Award Tour, we take a look at the futures market in the NBA to see which team will come out of the Eastern and Western Conference for the 2-2025-26 season. Should it be favorites with Cleveland and Thunder or will there be any sleepers to look out for?


    Lastly, on Coach's Scouting Report, we preview Tuesday's (07/22) WNBA matchups. The second of the season is underway and there's going to be major drama for the teams that want to solidify their spot for the postseason.

    More NBA & WNBA action and news in the mix so Coach James Young has you covered on this episode.

    Sad news to start the Tip Off Topics as Fever star Caitlin Clark suffered a groin injury during Indiana's win over the Sun on Tuesday. What does this mean for the Fever going forward? In addition, ESPN released its Top 20 WNBA Players in the league so far this season. Were they accurate or did some players deserve higher rankings? In the NBA, Paul George and Dereck Lively had to go through respective procedures. Can they recover before the start of this upcoming training camp?


    We have two Award Tours to showcase. In the NBA Award Tour, we take a look at some futures in the betting market: MVP, Defensive Player of the Year, 6th Man of the Year, and Coach of the Year. Are the favorites the clear winners or are there some dark horse picks that could cash during the 2025-26 season.


    Lastly on the WNBA Award Tour, we update the win totals for all teams in the league. Coach lists some teams to look out for during the remainder of the 2nd half of the season.
