Then, Jock Landale joins the show to talk about what it’s like going up against Nikola Jokic, the motivation behind defending Deandre Ayton as his teammate received a bunch of criticism, what he learned in his rookie season with Gregg Popovich, and his future with the Phoenix Suns as he heads into free agency (21:05).
