The Ringer's Bill Simmons is joined by Joe House and J. Kyle Mann to ask some NBA questions: "Is it too soon to say the Knicks need to trade Julius Randle?" "Is it too soon to panic about the Heat?" "Is it too soon to say the Thunder might be a top-five team in the West?" And more (2:32). Then, Bill talks with Chris Vernon about the 0-5 Grizzlies (1:12:38) before bouncing some NFL bets off of him and making the Million-Dollar Picks for NFL Week 9 (1:26:26).
