Dunkin' with Dom Episode #40: NBA Eastern Conference Free Agency Full Analysis, including the Ultra-Retooling Heat, Idiotic Bulls, Blundering Knicks, Stand-Still Sixers, and more with Pablo Puga
Welcome to the fortieth episode of the Dunkin' with Dom podcast! After a crazy first two days of free agency, Pablo and I will focus our attention on the Eastern Conference and the teams that have stood out to us the most, including Miami, Chicago, New York, and others. In this episode, we'll start off by talking about the Heat, including the acquisition of Kyle Lowry, his fit with the rest of the roster, Miami's chances at a title, Jimmy Butler's huge contract extension, and more. Then, we'll focus on two teams whose moves have provided nothing but concern for their futures: the Bulls and Knicks. Was a DeMar DeRozan sign-and-trade worth it for the Bulls? Can Lonzo Ball live up to his new contract? Are the Bulls still stuck in NBA purgatory? How much of an overpay was Evan Fournier for the Knicks? Can Julius Randle repeat his breakout year this upcoming season? Is running it back the right idea for New York? Lastly, we'll focus on some other Eastern Conference teams, including the Celtics and Sixers remaining quiet on the free agent market, Brooklyn maintaining their core, and more.
