   30 NBA Role Players I'm Watching This Season | HTP 71

   Every NBA team has stars, but every team also has role players who could completely change how their roster works. On Episode 71 of Harrison Talks Pod, I’m picking one role player from every NBA team that I’m excited to watch this season. 30 players, 30 different situations, and 30 questions about what could come next. We look at players including González in Boston, Egor Demin in Brooklyn, Deuce McBride in New York, VJ Edgecombe in Philadelphia, Ja'Kobe Walter in Toronto, Matas Buzelis in Chicago, Jaylon Tyson in Cleveland, Ron Holland in Detroit, Jarace Walker in Indiana, AJ Green in Milwaukee, and many more. Which role player are you most excited to watch?

   The Pistons Won 60 Games. Now What? | HTP 70

   The Detroit Pistons just finished a 60–22 season, earned the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference, won their first playoff series of the rebuild, and pushed their way into the second round before losing to the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 7. On Episode 70 of Harrison Talks Pod, we look at what that season actually proved and what Detroit needs to accomplish in 2026–27. The Pistons have already gone from 14 wins, to 44 wins, to 60 wins in just two seasons. The next step is not necessarily winning another 60 games. It is proving that Cade Cunningham, Jalen Duren, Ausar Thompson, and the supporting cast can succeed when opponents have seven games to prepare for them. We break down Detroit's regular-season identity, the offensive issues that appeared in the playoffs, and why the team's defense translated more successfully than its offense. We also examine the offseason additions of John Collins, Isaiah Joe, Taurean Prince, and Gary Harris, along with the departures of Tobias Harris, Isaiah Stewart, and Caris LeVert. Did Detroit make the roster better, or is the organization relying too heavily on internal development? We discuss Cade's role, Ausar's offensive development, Duren's playoff viability, the lack of an obvious second creator, and the possibility of a trade deadline move. The Eastern Conference also became more difficult this offseason, with several teams adding major talent and others expecting important players to return from injury. That makes Detroit's next season even more important. The Pistons may not need to win 60 games again, but they do need to show that last year's success was the beginning of something bigger.

   The Clippers Just Lost Their Future: Can They Still Build a Winner? | HTP 69

   The Los Angeles Clippers just paid an enormous price for the Kawhi Leonard era. On Episode 69 of Harrison Talks Pod, we break down the NBA's $30 million fine and major draft-pick penalties, including five first-round picks being eliminated from 2029 through 2033, and what that means for the Clippers' future. We also look at the league's findings surrounding Kawhi Leonard, the Clippers' organizational decisions, and whether the pursuit of contention was worth sacrificing so much flexibility. We then examine where the Clippers go from here, including Darius Garland, Brandon Ingram, Keaton Wagler, the team's current roster, and the danger of getting stuck in the middle. Should Los Angeles continue trying to compete, start a full rebuild, or take a more patient approach focused on developing value and rebuilding its asset base?
