Vincent Goodwill is joined by Bomani Jones for a conversation that travels all the way around the NBA, from Victor Wembanyama to James Harden to the Milwaukee Bucks and more, before Dan Devine shows up to talk through Level 1 of our NBA Levels project.
00:00 - Welcome to the show, Bomani Jones!
04:25 - Victor Wembanyama
19:25 - James Harden
31:55 - Terry Stotts leaves MIL
35:55 - Youth vs. Veterans
43:55 - 5 Questions
48:10 - NBA Levels - Level 1
On this episode of Good Word with Goodwill, Vincent Goodwill is joined by Bomani Jones to talk about relaunching The Right Time with Bomani Jones and all things NBA heading into an exciting regular season.
Vincent and Bomani spend a good chunk of time talking about Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama, who is already doing things in the preseason that feel impossible and might be the best thing to happen to the NBA because many will be tuning into his regular season games.
James Harden has been taking personal days away from the Philadelphia 76ers and seems stuck without a way out to the Los Angeles Clippers, who have shown only tepid interest and may not have a spot for him in the starting lineup anyway.
Former Portland Trail Blazers head coach Terry Stotts resigned from the Milwaukee Bucks because he did not want to be answering to rookie head coach Adrian Griffin, leading Vince to wonder if associate head coaches are a good thing to have and leaving Bomani to wonder what Terry was expecting in the job to begin with.
After talking about if this is the year that youth finally overtakes the veterans for dominance in the NBA, Bomani leaves and is replaced by Dan Devine, who goes through the six guys in Level 1 of our NBA Levels project. These are the guys capable of being the best player on a championship team this year...so why is Luka Doncic on this list?

Jason Concepcion on the Knicks’ playoff chances, taunting & James Harden | Devine Intervention
On the very first episode of Devine Intervention, Dan Devine is joined by Jason Concepcion (Binge Mode, NBA Desktop, Six Trophies, etc.) to talk about their feelings around the New York Knicks.
00:00 - Count me in!
05:20 - New York Knicks talk
25:25 - Fill in the blank
36:15 - Who is the best big man ever?
39:50 - Weekly recommendations
Welcome to Devine Intervention , a self-help basketball podcast. On the very first episode, Dan Devine is joined by Jason Concepcion so that they can discuss their feelings around the team that they love: The New York Knicks.
Both Dan and Jason are hopeful about where the Knicks are and where they are heading, but that doesn’t remove the fear that the team could slip right back into old habits and the whole thing could crumble from beneath their feet.
Also, what is going to make this Year 5 different from previous stops where Tom Thibodeau’s Bulls and Timberwolves fell apart and left him on the outside looking in? And didn’t he almost get fired last season? Jason offers up a compelling argument and a bit of hope that things will be different in New York.
After talking about the Knicks, we move on to a fun round of “Fill in the blank” to help preview the NBA regular season (starting tonight!), debate who the best big man of all time is and offer up some recommendations for listeners that might help get their thoughts in a better place.
We enjoy making the show and we can only hope that you enjoy listening to it.
