The Pickaxe is back again! This week we get into the news that Kyrie Irving may not be traded and whether or not the Denver Nuggets should try to re-ignite trade talks with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Next we get into Steve Hess moving into a consulting role and how fair is it to criticize the training staff for injuries (spoiler alert: it isn’t). Finally, we continue breaking down a player a week, this time we dive into Gary Harris and how much higher his ceiling can go.
