Hour 1 – Wemby the Ghost, Expanding the Bracket

About this episode

Dan discusses the NBA Playoff action and the potential expansion of NCAA basketball tournaments.

Dan weighs in on last night’s NBA Playoff action and thinks the NBA needs to introduce a new statistical category to account for Victor Wembanyama’s ability to discourage shots on defense. And he addresses the reports that the NCAA is planning on expanding the field of their men’s and women’s basketball tournaments to 76 teams. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
