Colin is joined by Nick Wright, host of “First Things First” on FS1!
They start by talking about why the NBA is still fantastic, just not in January (3:00) and why the NBA needed to start pivoting to the younger generation of stars sooner than they have (8:00). They push back on the narrative that the size of a team’s market doesn’t matter (11:45), why LeBron was an outlier in being the only true “face of the league” playing in a small market (14:00) and why this Knicks playoff run is huge for the league (23:00).
Nick explains why he can predict the Chiefs opponent in their home opener based on the size of their opponent’s brand and the narrative surrounding them (23:00). Colin offers his theory on why cap space isn’t as debilitating as advertised and why teams need to be confident in taking big swings, a la Atlanta drafting Michael Penix…but Nick pushes back (30:00).
Don’t forget to check back for part two of the conversation with Nick Wright!
