The Greatest Defensive Draft Class Ever & Why Restricted Free Agency Isn't Broken | Good Take

Can a modern NBA draft class become the greatest defensive class in league history? Wes Goldberg is joined by Basketball Poetry's Mike Shearer to debate whether the 2017 and 2023 draft classes are on pace to challenge legendary groups like 1984 and 1996 thanks to the emergence of Bam Adebayo, Derrick White, Victor Wembanyama, Amen Thompson and more. Then Mike brings his own Good Take on why restricted free agency has become one of the NBA's most misunderstood roster-building tools. Finally, it's another edition of Summer 3-Way, where Wes and Mike each lay out the three moves they would make to finish the Miami Heat's offseason, including whether Miami should prioritize Klay Thompson, pivot to DeMar DeRozan, target an overlooked young player, or preserve flexibility for the buyout market. Plus, Wes celebrates another Good Take victory as the audience continues to decide who has the best basketball arguments each week. RealGM Radio is your top spot for the best weekly NBA coverage.
