Zach Lowe：本期节目讨论了快船队失去保罗·乔治、克莱·汤普森离开勇士队、马尔卡宁的潜在下家、湖人队的自由球员选择、雷霆队签下哈滕斯坦、鹈鹕队交易得到德章泰·穆雷、魔术队得到KCP、猛龙队续约巴恩斯和奎克利等交易。他认为快船队放弃乔治的举动可能暗示着他们承认球队已经失败，并选择放弃争冠；勇士王朝的终结令人惋惜，但也是一个时代的结束；湖人队需要找到新的方法来保持竞争力，因为他们已经不再是夺冠热门。
Bobby Marks：他详细分析了多笔交易，包括哈滕斯坦加盟雷霆、乔治加盟76人、克莱·汤普森离开勇士等。他认为快船队放弃乔治的第四年合同，可能是因为担心他的年龄和薪资；76人队引进乔治后，成为东部联盟的夺冠热门，但恩比德需要在季后赛保持健康，并有更好的表现；勇士队失去克莱·汤普森标志着一个时代的结束，但这并不意味着勇士队就无法继续竞争；湖人队需要进行交易来腾出薪资空间，才能签下克莱·汤普森或其他球员；雷霆队签下哈滕斯坦，进一步增强了他们的阵容深度和竞争力；猛龙队与奎克利续约，表明他们对他的未来充满信心，并正在尝试构建一支年轻有竞争力的球队；他认为新工资帽规则对球队的交易和阵容调整造成了很大的限制。

- Clippers won only three playoff series in five seasons with Leonard and George.
- Kawhi Leonard has not finished a season healthy since the bubble.
- Clippers' reasoning for not giving Paul George a max contract is unclear.
- The trade of Paul George signals a potential rebuild for the Clippers.
