Broken Jumper: An NBA Podcast with Bob Schmidt

Bob Schmidt, the voice of Am 570 LA Sports, is joined by Kevin Figgers, as the two discuss this week's big NBA stories. We start with David Griffin and the NOLA.com article that chronicled his rocky relationship with Zion Williamson. Could his job be in trouble? Would Zion actually play on the qualifying offer? The guys also discuss the Ben Simmons standoff with the 76ers, and why contracts don't mean what they use to.
