2025 NBA West Offseason Grades: Mavericks, Nuggets, Warriors & More
2025 NBA West offseason grades. Mavericks, Nuggets, Warriors, more. Diving into the NBA offseason. Grading the West’s moves in 2025. In a bold move, Nate and Danny have taken it upon themselves to dissect the summer moves made by all 15 teams in the Western Conference. Their analysis is comprehensive, covering free agency signings, trades, and draft picks. But here’s where it gets controversial. They don’t hold back when it comes to giving their honest grades. Let’s start with the Mavericks. They’ve been making headlines with their aggressive pursuit of talent to build around Cooper flag. Denver, on the other hand, made waves with their acquisition of Cam Johnson. And then there are the Golden State Warriors who find themselves at a crossroads as they deal with an aging core. The question is, did they make the right moves to stay competitive? Moving on, the Rockets had an eventful off season and the Clippers are trying to retool around. But wait, there’s more. The second half of the podcast delves into some of the more controversial trades of the off season, including Memphis trading away Desmond Bane, Minnesota taking a financial risk on Nas Reed, and the Pelicans lack of direction. And this is the part most people miss. OKC’s conservative approach after their finals run, Phoenix’s pivot without Kevin Durant, and the promising youth focused moves by San Antonio and Utah. These teams might not be grabbing the headlines, but their moves could have significant long-term implications. Timestamps by team.
