In this episode of ColdPickleNachos: We’ve got a lot to talk about, and a lot of it may be considered controversial.

And you know what? We’re coming for you too, Vasilije Micic! Also…one of the perks of making zero mon...

In this episode of ColdPickleNachos: We give our thoughts on the Trae Young rumors and how he'd fit on the Phoenix Suns. Do we desperately want a Young trade, or do we think it's a bad idea?

Finally, we either go in-depth on the Marcus Morris fraud story a...

We break down our favorite and l...

In this episode of ColdPickle Nachos: We break down all the KD rumors and try to make sense of which teams are serious, and which teams are seriously annoying. We outline what we need to feel good about a KD return package, and which options will have us feeling like we're navigating the ravaged streets of a dystopian future (that probably broke out when Rudy Gobert did something dumb). And, of co...

In this episode: We have a positive take on a Phoenix Suns press conference?
