In a spectacular feat, The Kevin O'Connor Show managed to cover every single one of the 30 NBA teams in their latest podcast. The main focus? The surprising and exciting moves made during the 2025 NBA Trade Deadline. One major headline discussed was the Golden State Warriors' acquisition of Jimmy Butler and whether it could potentially make them a top contender. However, the Phoenix Suns were deemed the biggest loser of the deadline, as they now face a daunting future due to the fallout from failed trade talks with Kevin Durant and a toxic team culture. Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Bucks also faced significant challenges in the aftermath of the deadline.
