Before Luka Doncic was traded, we talked about the mismatch between athleticism and aesthetics, especially amongst elite athletes. From Pat Mahomes to Luka Doncic to Nikola Jokic, we talk about how what it means to be athletic is misunderstood, and definitely can't be seen with the human eye based on cut up abs or ripped arms.

In doing so, we talk to Rustin Dodd of The Athletic bout his piece on the subject!
