Dunkin' with Dom Episode #127: 2022 NBA Draft Takeaways, including Kyrie's Drama, Bright Future Pistons, A Blazers' Reset, WTF Knicks?, The Chet Debacle, and more with Alex Eisman and Austen McDonald
Welcome to the one-hundred and twenty-seventh episode of the Dunkin' with Dom podcast! After two nights, the 2022 NBA Draft is officially in the books. In today's episode, Austen, Alex, and I will be breaking down the biggest narratives from the draft. We'll start off by sorting through the biggest pre-draft story: Kyrie Irving's eroding situation with the Nets. We'll discuss Irving's list of teams he's interested in, the likelihood of a contract extension with Brooklyn, how Kyrie's future affects Kevin Durant's tenure with the Nets, and more. Then, we'll run through the biggest takeaways from this year's NBA draft, including how the top-3 picks broke out, why we have differing opinions on Chet Holmgren, the Pistons' bright future with Cade Cunningham and Jaden Ivey, the Thunder's youth movement, the Knicks' (continued) incompetence, big-picture effects of the draft, and (much) more. Today's guest(s): Alex Eisman and Austen McDonald
