2013 NBA Redraft | Any Given Redraft
Monday, 23 February, 2026
An extra special day on the pod – our friend Jacob Hill returns for a new episode of our special edition series, Any Given Redraft! And we've got a doozy this time: the 2023 NBA Draft, inarguably one of the worst in league history. It's the year Anthony Bennet went number one, the year only one All Star was picked in the lottery, the year the Bucks drafted one of the greatest players of all time just after, and the year that the Podfather, Bill Simmons, went undefeated on ESPN's broadcast. We begin by breaking down how the night unfolded at Barclays Center, with David Stern going full heel and riling up the Brooklyn crowd. Naturally, we discuss Bill Simmons' big night, including his iconic reaction to Cleveland's selection of Anthony Bennett, Victor Oladipo's case for the number one pick, Giannis' upside, CJ McCollum's Patriot League representation, just to name a few. We also hit on the numerous lottery disappointments, from Nerlens Noel to MCW to Shabazz Muhammad. Finally, we get to our redraft, where we each draft teams of 8 players. Along the way, we marvel at Giannis' accomplishments to date, debate the selection of McCollum vs. the Stifle Tower, wonder at Oladipo's ceiling if health hadn't failed him, and slog through some abominable bench selections towards the back end. This one's for the sickos. Enjoy. Cheers to Bill Simmons and David Stern!
