Heat Check with Trysta Krick

Ryan McDonough has been in enough NBA war rooms that he can add the kind of insight that Trysta is looking for before the draft. Save you mocks, we want to know how to spot the lies.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With a champion crowned and an exciting off-season looming, Trysta takes some time to put a bow on the show. All of the most memorable moments from the season are appreciated or mocked accordingly.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The 2021-2022 NBA season came to its conclusion last night. The Golden State Warriors defeated the Boston Celtics on their court. In the end, Boston just didn't have enough for a team that has experience and a level pettiness that may never be seen again in professional sports. Until next season anyway.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The way the Warriors are covered by their media make it hard to appreciate the team and what it has accomplished. Anthony Davis has finally picked up a basketball. The 76ers are finally abandoning the last part of the process in order to win a chip.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A generational defense vs a league transforming offense. This is not hyperbole. Trysta looks at 2 teams that have done some truly amazing things on the way to this meeting in the NBA Finals. What are the stats that might predict the outcome? What team has more advantages? Steals, points per possessions and much more get analyzed heading into the meeting between Boston & Golden State when it st...

Boston plays great defense. The Warriors will turn the ball over some times. Is this a big deal or just something that Golden State knows and will fix?   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Can a team that plays the best defense we have seen in years be disciplined enough to slow down and offense that rewrote how the league plays games and the record books as well?   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It wasn't that long ago that the Celtics and Warriors looked like teams that needed to break up their rosters and look towards the future. A washed up has been and a never was. But, that was before the 2 franchises took divergent paths on their way to the Finals. Here is how they went from ham & eggers to contenders.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On a very special episode of Heat Check, Trysta confronts a problem she just can't outrun.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Nets became a contender with Kyrie and Durant overnight. The same speed is being applied to the destruction of a team that never worked to the assumed potential.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Teams need to get better to go deeper than they did the previous year. Does paying Jalen Brunson what he is worth get the Mavs closer to a chip?   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Trysta takes a few moments to look at why the latest hiring by Minnesota is a very big deal for the NBA and what it means for the team and league. And, there was podcast that Kyrie Irving was on.

Not only does Trysta not hate Golden State, but she actually likes a lot of the players. There is an entity related to the team that she is not fond of. Neither is Barkley. Also, the player who has shocked everyone by stepping his game up and becoming something much different than expected.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
