Wemby MVP Surge vs SGA, Luka & Jokic + UConn’s Duke Buzzer-Beater, NBA Rule Changes & Expansion Draft Talk

In Season 3, Episode 22 of the Swishlist podcast, the hosts break down the Victor Wembanyama MVP surge and debate how defense, games played, team seeding, and narrative impact the race against SGA, Jokic, Luka, and Jalen Brown, including key remaining schedule matchups. They shift to March Madness, reacting to UConn’s comeback and late shot versus Duke while discussing blue-blood dominance and coaching under Dan Hurley. The episode also debates a 2v2 matchup (Kawhi & MJ vs Kobe & LeBron), proposes a flopping technical with challenge support, runs Celtics “build a starting five” and bench debates, and covers NBA expansion possibilities (Vegas/Seattle), expansion draft protections, and conference realignment ideas. They close with disappointments among non–play-in teams, injury concerns in San Francisco sports, teammate 1v1 matchups, and a brief Apple Music vs Spotify discussion.
