First, a Weekend Review exclusive with thoughts on all-star voting, Zaza Pachulia, Kevin Durant and what vote totals surprised us with host Jason Mann and Step Back contributors Trevor Magnotti and Jeff Siegel. We discuss James Harden’s amazing 53-point triple-double and the impressive craftiness of his game, how 2016-17 is an even more potent year for offense, and how teams are more creatively using the pick-and-roll with Scott Rafferty, associate editor of The Step Back. We look at the Los Angeles Lakers’ future, how their young building blocks are developing, and the possibility of a regime change with Daman Rangoola. We talk about D-League players are most likely to get a look in the NBA as 10-day contract season begins with Chris Reichert, resident D-League expert and The Step Back associate editor. We chat about the Dallas Mavericks at a crossroads, how Harrison Barnes has performed in a starring role, and what the end of Dirk Nowitzki’s career might look like with Kirk Henderson of Mavs Moneyball.
