Dan and Grant run through a list of overreactions from the start of the 2026-27 NBA season and decide whether they're going to buy or sell them. TIMESTAMPS⤵️ 0:00 - INTRO 3:08 - The Bulls are the…

I'm kind of, might bleed into another overreaction later, but I think that Brooklyn might be a little bit friskier than people are expecting.
I'm just wondering if, and this would be more of a league-wide overreaction, could there be more of a tank to the relegation zone if you don't love this draft class.
If they don't have their own pick this year, why waste potentially sending the number one pick out and not being cannibalized? But like in the Bulls' case, or let's say the Kings' case, or...
Like, what if you don't love this draft class and you'd rather not necessarily burn your best odds on getting a number one pick this year anyway? So could we see teams go about it that way? I don't know if that's an overreaction.
Toronto was like, yeah, we'll throw CMB and Jakob Pertl out for a bunch of time and everything's just going to be it's going to be just fine.
