Welcome to a brand new episode of Islands In The League presented by Draft Kings. In this episode, we dive into the history of midseason trades and why Kevin Durant being traded from The Brooklyn Nets to The Phoenix Suns to play alongside Devin Booker and Chris Paul, is the craziest trade in NBA history. What’s the ceiling for KD and The Suns? Spoiler… it’s very high.

Man JJ bruh lmao 🤣🤣
JJ did not need to reenact the refs LOOOOOOOOOL
you was good on the court, but not when you on the podcast
kawhi/derozan trade is still the greatest ever to me although it wasn't mid season
wait wut
awesome stuff JJ, you are an NBA Legend.
JJ you are nearing your final form great content dude
Forgot to mention Embiid drafted by the sixers
Poor JJ – having to relive the trades that made him lose to the 09 lakers and the 2019 raps. You're still a winner in our eyes man!
4:10😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Very strange. . . What is it about the Bucks that make it seem like you don't really believe in them? They really can't lose to anyone but the Crltics. If you look closely at their games vs each other last year, it's Grant Williams who's kept Giannis less than his usuL self. Williams grabs/hugs Giannis off the ball to keep him from getting to his spot all the time, and domehow the referees never see that. . . not to mention grabbing his arm when Giannis is on the ball or shooting while in the paint.
I love seeing/hearing jj reddik succeeding in his second career
bruh 😂
🔥🔥🔥
Sleepless nights 😂
Kyrie n luka is not a good fit. He wont be resigning. If he does…hes gonna request a trade
surely Rasheed was more impactful than Clyde. the Rockets won the title the year before!
JJ is silly for that referee segment 🤣
jj drinking the pepto was too funny
KAY FREE 💍
The league was so much better when players would stay on one team for the majority of their careers! The way players create these superteams takes away from winning a championship! Like if the suns win the championship I’d say well I’d hope so you have two of the best scorers a big guy down low and a good point guard to lead the team! Now why would this be so impressive if they won?
Thank you JJ, WE LOVE THE ALMIGHTY PHOENIX SUN'S!! Ms.G.
Future in Hollywood jj?
One of my favorite NBA factoids is that Pau Gasol never beat Dirk Nowitzki in a playoff game, even though their teams have played several series against each other. Dude was something like 0-16 against Dirk in playoffs. Amazing.
Whoa JJ isn't just a podcaster he's a full blown youtuber now 😆
JJ you're an nba legend in ur own respective way one of the best all time college ball players too word
Dominique gave u those facts. He will not be sharing frenchtoast w you
