#005: "What if" | NBA Careers Cut Short by Injuries
Explicit content warning
01/22/21 • 57 min
So James Harden is on the Brooklyn Nets, Victor Oladipo is on the Houston Rockets, the Cleveland Cavaliers have skyscrapers as a roster, and Caris LeVert is an Indiana Pacer. However, LeVert discovered he has a small mass in his kidney upon his trade to Indiana from Brooklyn. Whether this mass in his kidney is benign or malignant (results not in as of yet), a player's health is no joke to an opposing fan.
As of January 26, 2021 - - [Source Shams Charania: Caris LeVert had surgery to treat kidney cancer and will make a full recovery].
As basketball fanatics, we have seen our fair share of players whose careers were cut short due to injuries. To imagine what their careers would have been like if they were healthy from the get-go, will always remain an enigma to basketball addicts and fans who appreciate the game. Boni and Felix will discuss their starting lineup consisting of injured players from Bill Walton to Derrick Rose. Join the two Toronto natives, as they give insight on their lineup choices and end the episode on a new segment called "Roast or Boast."
- Boni and Felix discuss their personal injuries thus far
- Everything James Harden: his trade to the Brooklyn Nets, his departure from the Houston Rockets, the chemistry of the Nets: Kevin Durant
- Do you think the Brooklyn Nets win the championship this NBA 2020-2021 season?
- Kendrick Perkins said: LeBron's Cleveland Cavaliers beating the Golden State Warriors 73W-9L in the finals, is better than Michael Jordan's 6-0 record in NBA Finals appearances. Do you agree?
- Felix's starting lineup of NBA players could have been great if it was not for injury: Derrick Rose, Gilbert Arenas, Tracy McGrady, Jermaine O'Neal, Greg Oden
- Boni's starting lineup of NBA players that could have been great, if it was not for injury: Jay Williams, Penny Hardaway, Grant Hill, Bill Walton, Yao Ming
- Felix expands on Derrick Rose and Tracy McGrady
- Boni expands on Yao Ming and Bill Walton
- Boni's Roast or Boast segment: Felix will be given an NBA player currently playing in the league, and he must either praise them or talk crap about them
