Episode Description from the Publisher

Ryen opens with a big-picture look at all the NBA moves this summer and how they may (or may not) have changed the championship picture. Then, he gets Philadelphia's perspective on the Jaylen Brown trade with Rich Hofmann, including how Jaylen fits alongside Maxey, Embiid's future, and whether Boston or Philly is the better team today. Next, Ceruti hops in to talk about the controversy surrounding Folarin Balogun's World Cup red card, the suspension of his one-game ban, and some of the other action from the tournament before Kyle joins for some listener-submitted Life Advice, including a sketchy relationship between a friend and a girlfriend.
