On the opposite end of the spectrum, Steve is concerned that this current run of instability opens the door for a potential, and justified, trade request.
In the final segment, Steve and Brian highlight CJ McCollum’s comments in a recent feature from The Athletic’s Jason Quick. Trade speculation can be entertaining, but McCollum’s comments stand as reminder of the human side of NBA transactions.
