The NBA offseason just got a whole lot crazier. In this week’s episode of Missing the Point, Dave Clarke, Mike Marcangelo, and Bob Kelly react to a whirlwind week in the NBA, starting with the Oklahoma City Thunder winning their first-ever NBA Championship; a massive statement from a young, homegrown team that might be built to dominate for years.
Meanwhile in Boston, the Celtics have begun a dramatic reset. With Jayson Tatum sidelined for the entire season due to a torn Achilles, the team has reportedly traded away both Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis to create financial flexibility. Is the Celtics’ title window officially closed, or is this just a temporary step back?
We also dig into a growing and alarming trend across the league: the spike in Achilles tendon injuries. From Tatum to Tyrese Haliburton, players are dropping at an unprecedented rate. Is it the schedule? The shoes? The load management era? We examine what’s behind the issue; and whether the NBA needs to take immediate action.
Then, stay tuned as we react live to the 2025 NBA Draft, breaking down the biggest picks, surprises, and what it means for the league’s future.
