As the NBA Regular Season kicks off and the rumor mill is already churning. There are some big names who could ultimately be on the move. BasketballInsiders.com’s Alex Kennedy joins us gives us all the scoop from around the league.

It sounds as if Goran Dragic, Ricky Rubio, Nikola Vučević and potentially LaMarcus Aldridge are all in situations where they could find themselves in different uniforms during the 2016-17 season. What’s the latest in Miami? Are the Clippers a roster just ready to dissolve? What’s next in Orlando? Who should the NBA’s toughness award be named after? Alex Kennedy (@AlexKennedyNBA) sits down with Ian and I to discuss that and much, much more.
