In this episode of Go Team Score Points, Irish and Sam break down the latest NBA drama — from Ja Morant’s mysterious “quiet protest” to the Celtics’ frustrating loss against the Jazz and the Nuggets’ domination over the Kings. They get into Jokic’s “frisky” pregame vibes, hotel pillow preferences, and what it takes to get scouted from a smaller college program. Then, they wrap up with a hilarious game diving into the wildest NBA conspiracy theories — including the “frozen envelope” and Michael Jordan’s secret baseball exile.

It’s smart, silly, and full of NBA takes you didn’t know you needed.
