S6 Ep69: INSTANT reaction to Kawhi returning to Toronto, LeBron leaving the Lakers, Duren to the Kings?!

Free agency hadn't even opened yet, and the NBA was already on fire. Mo Mooncey and Coach Brendan Suhr sit down two hours before the market opens, and by the time they're done recording, a Kawhi Leonard trade breaks live on the show.

Mo and Coach open with LeBron James informing the Lakers he won't be back, and make the case for why Golden State, not Cleveland, makes the most sense for his next move. From there it's straight into the Lakers' brutal center market, a tense staring contest between the Pistons and Jalen Duren, and then, mid-conversation, news breaks that Kawhi Leonard is heading back to Toronto. Mo and Coach react live and immediately start building out what the new-look Raptors could look like.

The back half covers the Ja Morant trade to Portland and whether Damian Lillard can be the veteran voice Morant needs, plus a full breakdown of where every team in the Eastern and Western Conference stands heading into free agency.
