The Boston Red Sox just traded away Rafael Devers, and the city is in shock. In this episode of Missing the Point, hosts Rayshawn Buchanan and Michael Marcangelo dive into one of the most controversial moves in recent MLB history: sending Devers to the San Francisco Giants. They break down why this deal feels like a salary dump, what it says about the Red Sox front office’s priorities, and how it compares to the infamous trades of Mookie Betts, Nomar Garciaparra, and Xander Bogaerts. Is this rock bottom for Red Sox Nation? Are we entering a new era of hopelessness at Fenway?
Then it’s time for NBA Finals Game 6, where the Oklahoma City Thunder are on the verge of winning their first NBA championship. The guys analyze Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s MVP-level postseason, Tyrese Haliburton’s shocking collapse, and how this young OKC squad is building a true dynasty. We also touch on the Boston Celtics' offseason strategy, including trade scenarios for Jrue Holiday, Kristaps Porzingis’ health, and why Michigan’s Danny Wolfcould be a draft-day steal.
