In this episode, Austin and Dante consider some of the major storylines from the first quarter of the NBA season. They talk about the implications of Russell Westbrook<\/a><\/strong> averaging a triple-double on ‘only’ an above average team, and how he compares to Oscar Robertson<\/a><\/strong>. Later, the two discuss rising and falling teams, especially around the dominant Golden State Warriors<\/strong> and Cleveland Cavaliers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Following that conversation, they talk about the teams racing towards the bottom for the number one draft pick with the Dallas Mavericks<\/strong> and\u00a0Philadelphia 76ers<\/strong>. They also talk about\u00a0the\u00a0Mike Conley<\/a><\/strong> injury and what it means for the\u00a0Memphis Grizzlies<\/strong>. They finish this week\u2019s pod by running through some of the impressive rookies, with an extended conversation about the ever-interesting Joel Embiid<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n
