Shams Charania, Kenny Beecham & Cam Johnson | The Media’s Role in the NBA, Breaking the Luka Doncic Trade, the MVP Debate

We have an amazing episode of ‘The Young Man and the Three’ this week with ESPN’s Shams Charania, Enjoy Basketball’s Kenny Beecham, and Brooklyn Nets forward Cam Johnson. The episode opens with Kenny, Cam, and Tommy Alter discussing the current NBA MVP race between Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (Oklahoma City Thunder) and Nikola Jokic (Denver Nuggets). Then, Shams joins the show. Shams and Kenny share how they both achieved their current positions in the NBA media landscape. The group then has a very nuanced, thoughtful discussion about the current media landscape in the NBA and the role the media plays. Shams then shares insane, untold stories about the behind-the-scenes of the night he broke the news about the historic Luka Doncic-Anthony Davis trade between the Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks, and Kenny and Cam shares thoughts on the reactions of the Mavericks fan base. They also recall the night that Cam Johnson was traded to the Nets with Kevin Durant and Mikal Bridges. They, of course, also share what their current favorite storylines and what they’re looking forward to the rest of the season. Let’s go.
