YAMology: Hoops Insight, Stories, and More

Episode 71: A Complete Review of NBA Rivals Week

Rivals Week delivered high-intensity matchups, and YAMology is here to break it all down. The Cavs took two tough losses to the Rockets, struggling with Houston’s size and energy. Meanwhile, the Wolves embarrassed the Nuggets, exposing Denver’s half-court defense. Are these just bad games, or signs of bigger issues?

The Shai vs. Jokić MVP debate gets another look as Shai’s case strengthens with a new career high! Norman Powell’s merch continues to be a talking point—good or gimmick? Meanwhile, Matt fights through "concussion protocol" after spraining his thumb playing pickup, and Alex relives his legendary burger-eating spree in OKC.

The crew also reviews the NBA Paris Game between the Spurs and Pacers, which sparks Alex’s passionate rant about Jarace Walker’s lack of minutes. To wrap things up, they react to the NBA All-Star starters and predict the Dunk Contest, asking the big question: Will Stephon Castle really try to jump over Wemby?

With rivalries, debates, and classic YAMology chaos, this episode is a must-listen.
