Locked On NBA – Daily Podcast On The National Basketball Association

Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and the Boston Celtics are the team to beat in the NBA next season, but can anyone catch them? Did Luka Doncic's Dallas Mavericks improve enough to bridge the gap? Can Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's Oklahoma City Thunder matchup?

Nick Angstadt (@NickVanExit, Locked On Mavs) & PatTheDesigner (@PatTheDeisgner, Locked On Bulls) dive into the upcoming NBA season, focusing on whether any team in the Eastern Conference can catch the Boston Celtics. They discuss the Celtics' strengths, including their defensive prowess and depth, and analyze potential challengers like the Sixers, Knicks, and Bucks. The conversation then shifts to the Western Conference, evaluating teams like the Dallas Mavericks and Oklahoma City Thunder as potential threats to the Celtics' dominance. The episode also touches on Zion Williamson's weight loss and its impact, and the future of Team USA's basketball coaching. Tune in for an in-depth look at the NBA landscape and some entertaining banter.
