Tue. Mar 31: CUP or BUST for Colorado Avalanche | Broncos set at WR, RB? | Pros and cons of shortening NBA games

The episode opens with a lively discussion on the Colorado Avalanche's dominant 9-2 victory over the Calgary Flames, highlighting their historic feat of beating every team in the NHL since the league expanded to 32 teams. Hosts debate whether simply reaching the Stanley Cup Final is enough for a successful season, arguing that with their elite talent and depth, the Avalanche must win the championship to validate their dominance. The conversation shifts to the Broncos, analyzing their wide receiver depth and the potential for trades, with Marvin Mims seen as the most likely to be cut due to his special teams value. The running back room is deemed a concern, with the tight end position identified as the team's weakest link, prompting a recommendation to prioritize drafting a versatile tight end over a running back in the second round. The hosts then debate NBA season and game length changes, with one advocating for a 40-minute game to reduce load management and boost star involvement, while the other warns it would stifle player development and harm the league’s long-term talent pipeline. The discussion ultimately centers on the NBA’s core issue: player engagement and pride, which the hosts believe cannot be solved by altering game length.
