Epsiode 349: Atlantic Division Preview

Author: Underdog Podcasts October 9, 2025 Duration: 56:59
On the 348th Episode of the underdog sports NBA show, Zandrick and Tyler discuss the pretty mediocre Atlantic Division. They start with the massive favorites in the division, the New York Knicks, and their new coaching hire of Mike Brown. They discuss how the team could be better, but could lose more games this year due to prioritizing more rest. They shift to the 76ers who they believe have the largest range of outcomes in the league, before they move on to the Celtics. Tyler discusses a potential Celtics fire sale and why they should go under their win totals. They discuss the Raptors at length before moving to the tanking Brooklyn Nets.
