The Bill Simmons Podcast
An NBA Roundtable With Eddie Johnson and Justin Termine

Hey, Bill, you see the ego on this crazed animal? Like, he's putting you in the analyst's seat. Yeah, that's fine. It's the water boss show. It's the water boss.

I think the West is wide open. I do. You got your talent at the top, but I think anything can happen. So that's why I think the teams in the West are going to be trying to be aggressive in the following week before the trade deadline to see if they can get that key player.

I think Oklahoma City is vulnerable because they're small. Even if they bring Chet and they have Hardenstein, I still say they're small because they're going to play small ball. Even with those guys, they're going to rotate to small guys. And I just never see that really working in the finals. The Celtics people looked at them. They weren't small. Jalen Brown looks like a mini Hercules.

People see these dudes up close. They'll see how big they are. And so it's a different animal. But you brought up Houston. I don't think Houston's getting out of the West to the finals, but I would bet money that Boston wouldn't want to see them if they were on the other end of that. Because the one team I think matches up with them with physicality and a nastiness is Houston.

He will. I honestly believe, Bill, these guys aren't built... to get deep and go repeat, repeat, repeat like it used to be. It's just something that the guys in the 80s and the 90s had that these guys just don't have. And it's not all their fault. They make a ton of money, man. Even guys in the 80s and 90s, they had to push because they needed more money. Like they weren't even paid highly.

Like, so they had a reason to go for it every year. They, they needed that playoff money. Like these guys don't need the playoff money. Like, and so they have to be pushed. And I think what's going to happen with Boston is, is when it gets after April. I mean, not April, March, and they can see the end of it. We're going to see the Boston team that we saw last year.

I think Jalen's going to wrap it up or Tatum's going to wrap it up because now they can see the end. So I am not down on Boston. I haven't been all year. I've made excuses for them because, and think of that, I'm making excuses for teams you all love.
