2 小时 4 分钟The Ringer's Bill Simmons is joined by David Jacoby and Kirk Goldsberry to discuss the first night of the NBA Cup quarterfinals, starting with the Thunder’s dominant win over the Mavs as they debate whether the Thunder are now the outright team to beat in the West (02:25). With trade season looming, Bill shares why he’s not a fan of the league's new CBA rules that restrict trades, before debating with Jacoby and Kirk whether the NBA Cup is actually working (17:18).

Coming up, NBA Cup, NBA and a lot of NFL next.
We're also brought to you by the Ringer Podcast network where I put up a new rewatchables.
On Monday night we did Disclosure, which is now one of the strangest movies of the 1990s.
It's now kind of a comedy, as weird as that sounds.
Me, Van Latham, Big Woz, we broke it all down and you can watch it as well on The Ringer Movies YouTube channel.
Speaking of YouTube channels, we launched our Ringer TV channel that has the prestige TV podcast to watch.
We're going to do some fun shorter videos on there and a lot of the archives we have from the TV episodes we've done.
So go check that out and subscribe.
We're going to be experimenting a lot more with video podcasts on all the Spotify feeds too for Prestige and for the Watch and for my podcast and or the Rewatchable.
So stay tuned if you like listening to podcasts on Spotify, you'll be able to watch the videos as well as we keep going, heading to the end of 2024 into 2025 coming up.
We waited for these two NBA cup games to end on Tuesday night because especially OKC Dallas had to see what was going on there, wanted to break it down.
So I reserved, almost like you can reserve uber black car or something.
I reserved Dave Jacoby and Kurt Goldsberry to be on call after the NBA Cup.
So they're going to join me and then Craig Horbeck and Kyle Branton and I, Kyle and I did a rewatchables that we recorded for later this month and then I made him stick around yesterday.
And me and Craig and Kyle just talked about NFL and it went a whole bunch of directions.
I had a great time.
So this is a three man podcast all the way through with two different three man teams.
So next, first our friends from Projet.
All right, we're taping this.
It is almost 9:00 Pacific Time.
