Later, Austin gets into why he isn’t a big fan of Anthony Edwards shooting mostly 3s this season (28:07), before he and Pausha get into an interesting Karl-Anthony Towns–Nikola Jokic debate (34:30).

The guys wrap things up with talk of their concerns for the Nuggets (43:17) and try to figure out whether there is a clear-cut third-best team in the league after the Celtics and Thunder (48:28).
