Rachel Nichols, Zach Lowe and Richard Jefferson discuss a number of topics, including Gilbert Arenas inviting himself to RJ’s beach volleyball matches, whether it’s more impressive for Los Angeles Lakers legend Jerry West to have won NBA Finals MVP on a losing team or to be the league’s logo, the Pro Basketball Hall of Fame delaying its ceremony until 2021, and new reports in the New York Knicks coaching search.

The logo, because no athlete in any other pro sports league is represented by a symbol like Jerry West.

LeBron should’ve won finals MVP on a losing team in 2014, 2015, 2017. I said what I said. 🤷🏾♂️

2017 and 2014, no. 2015 I can see the argument.

Logo. The NBA Finals MVP felt more like a consolation prize

The logo of course, but the MVP during a losing finals is incredible. The NBA needs to pay Jerry West for the logo, it’s overdue.

Pretty sure it’s the logo, because the logo is more valuable and is the best sport logo

Both are impressive. But trading for a 17yo who would go on to win 5 championships and be considered one of the greatest is more impressive.

The NBA logo should be LeBron James. Period.

This happened in the NFL once. Chuck Howley won mvp, when the (then) Baltimore Colts beat Dallas.

Those finals Bill Russel averaged 9 PPG, 21 REB, 5 AST. Havlicek 28 PPG, 11 REB, 4 AST. Jerry West 38 PTS, 5 REB, 7 AST. His points are crazy but he was a small guy, Lakers got outrebounded like crazy, that’s what happens in basketball when you can’t rebound the ball…

Kenny Atkinson to the Knicks is a very good move the knicks need to stop thinking they are the Lakers no one wants to play there just build through the draft and develop young players

Winning the mvp is more impressive. Jerry West is not “officially” the logo, that’s why the logo is anonymous. The artist who came up with the logo chose a West photo because of the silhouette, not because he was great.

Needs to happen ASAP although I know Jerry west raw but cmon now how long he been the logo and I don’t want to say this but I’m pretty sure I feel like Kobe better then him so why not Kobe as the logo, he’s lit a perfect for it, an overachiever and overworker and a winner

If you’re trying to impress someone would you go
A. You know the NBA logo? Ye, THEE NBA logo. The guy on there? That’s ME.
B. You know I used play in the NBA, my team lost but I got a award for being the best player in those games… oh, no no no the losing part is what makes it special! The fact that I won even tho I lost.. you feel me?
