## Resource

We've got not one but TWO great NBA Observations on this latest episode! Check in as Calif Poncy from The Suave Report and the New Century Press returns as he and Gerald discuss the fallout from the NBA Finals. Tune in as they go over what went right for the league, how New York pulled it off, and the bright future for the Spurs. They also get into the most intriguing stories for the offseason with Giannis, Austin Reaves, Trey Murphy III, and more being discussed. They also discuss the latest rumors of the NBA Draft and who may go where at the top of the order, seemingly changing by the day as well. And right after, it's Matt John from the J-Notes on Fansided returns to discuss the current rumors surrounding the Utah Jazz. With the reported strife between Kessler and the Jazz front office becoming more evident, Matt talks about what an eventual outcome might be for a reunion with the Jazz as part of Kessler's restricted free agency. He and Gerald also ponder the current offer of five years/140 million, reportedly turned down by Kessler, and if he could be offered (and is even worth) more from another team. They then discuss the other intriguing storyline in Daaryn Peterson and if his refusal to work out for the Jazz may lead to a different outcome in next week's draft for the Jazz. The rumors and innuendos are only getting more prevalent as we get closer to the draft and free agency, with some great NBA Observations!
