The NBA news cycle rages on, so Hardwood Knocks does, too. First, Adam and Dan discuss the Boston Celtics' front office overhaul, offering their thoughts on Danny Ainge, Brad Stevens, the head coach search and the future of the franchise. After that, they dive into Joel Embiid's latest injury and what that means for the Philadelphia 76ers-Atlanta Hawks series. From there, they offer up some closing thoughts on the New York Knicks season. Finally, Dan is joined by Jake Fischer (@JakeLFischer), the author of Built to Lose: How the NBA's Tanking Era Changed the League Forever, to discuss tanking (obviously!), Sam Hinkie, never-before-heard anecdotes about the Lakers, Sixers, Kings and much more! We highly recommend checking out Jake's book.
