POSTCAST - Overwhelmed: Miami Heat DOMINATE Glass, Crush Utah Jazz in Epic Rebounding DISPLAY and Blowout Loss

Utah Jazz face a franchise-altering decision: should they risk it all to trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo or play it safe by targeting OG Anunoby?

Would you gamble the future for a shot at superstardom, knowing LA and New York are always looming?David Locke breaks down the potential trade packages, weighs Milwaukee’s incentives, and considers alternate routes involving Anunoby as a cornerstone defensive piece. The conversation spotlights Keyonte George, Lauri Markkanen, and Ace Bailey in a possible new-look lineup, alongside the Jazz’s options in free agency. Get expert insight on team-building, draft strategy, and how Utah’s front office could swing for the fences to change the NBA landscape. 0:00 — Giannis Trade Possibility7:45 — OG Anunoby Alternative15:00 - Ace Bailey on the Jayson Tatum plan26:00 — Points Gained Everydayer Club  If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
