The Western Conference win totals are here, and Wes Goldberg and Mike Shearer are picking an over or under for all 15 teams. Can the Oklahoma City Thunder win 61 games and make it four straight 60-win seasons? Are Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs due for regression after winning 62? And are the Lakers, Rockets and Nuggets among the safest bets in the West? Wes and Mike also disagree with some of the offseason’s most tempting win totals. Is the Jazz over at 35.5 a trap? Can Ja Morant and Damian Lillard make Portland better immediately? Are the Clippers headed for a collapse? And can Cooper Flagg help Dallas make a massive leap? Plus, they identify the swing factor for each team and finish by making their official Western Conference over and under locks. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What are we debating about the NBA right now that will look completely obvious by the end of the 2026-27 season? Wes Goldberg is joined by Jared Dubin and Mike Shearer to plant their flags on the biggest questions that could be settled over the next year. Which young player makes the leap? Which contender are we overthinking? Which team-building philosophy is about to become conventional wisdom? Then, the guys tackle one of the NBA’s biggest ongoing debates: Is the second apron actually bad for basketball? The new CBA has made roster-building more restrictive and expensive teams have complained about how difficult it is to maintain contenders. But is that a flaw — or exactly what the system was designed to accomplish? Finally, following Russell Westbrook’s retirement, Wes, Jared and Mike get personal: Which player fundamentally changed the way you understand and watch basketball?

The RealGM Radio crew is together for a Summer Roundtable! Wes Goldberg is joined by Mo Dakhil and Jared Dubin of Double Dribble and Basketball Poetry's Mike Shearer to react to another stunning Lakers ownership change, break down the NBA's newly announced schedule and battle through a tiered fantasy draft. First, the Lakers are reportedly being sold for $12 billion to Bob Iger and Joshua Kushner—just 18 months after Mark Walter purchased the franchise. What could another massive valuation mean for NBA expansion in Las Vegas and Seattle? And somehow, Luka Doncic could already be playing for his third majority owner. Then, the guys grade the NBA's Christmas Day slate and opening week schedule before things get competitive. Using The Ringer's player rankings, Wes, Mo, Jared and Mike snake-draft seven-man rosters—with a catch: Each round is limited to a different 10-player tier, and once that round ends, every undrafted player from that tier disappears.

The conversation examines how organizations should evaluate stars whose regular-season production may not translate against elite postseason defenses, as well as the importance of accountability and partnership with coaches and executives.
