Wes Goldberg of RealGM Radio was kind enough to have me on his show to do my favorite thing: Discuss X-Factors. We take turns drafting pivotal players, stats, and themes that could swing the series. Our discussion covers a lot of ground, from Shai’s brilliance to Haliburton’s time of possession to who benefits more from a lenient whistle to, uh, Thomas Bryant.

You likely know RealGM from their podcast, but they’ve recently started a YouTube channel, too! Make sure to check that out to see me in all my radiance.

And hey, even if you have no interest, please give something (preferably the YouTube link) a click anyway. I need to prove my worth as a value-add guest! Links below; thanks in advance.
