This week on The Atlantic Files:

Welcome to episode 317 of The Atlantic Files! We’re diving deep into the 2024 NBA season with a special focus on the Northwest Division, while also tackling some of the wildest NBA conspiracy theories. Plus, we debate whether the Boston Celtics and Jayson Tatum were disrespected at the 2024 Olympics. Let’s jump right into the action!

2024 NBA Northwest Division Preview:
We start this episode by breaking down the 2024 NBA Northwest Division. With teams like the Denver Nuggets, Minnesota Timberwolves, and Utah Jazz making key moves this offseason, the division is shaping up to be one of the most competitive in the league. We analyze each team’s roster, highlight potential breakout stars, and predict which team has the best shot at taking the division title. Who’s set for a deep playoff run, and who might struggle to keep up? We’ve got all the insights you need.

NBA Conspiracy Theories:
Next up, we dive into some of the most intriguing NBA conspiracy theories. From the idea that certain teams are favored by the league to suspicions about rigged draft lotteries, we explore which theories hold water and which ones are just fun to speculate about. Do we believe any of these theories ourselves? Tune in to find out which ones we think might have a kernel of truth and which are purely for entertainment.

Were the Boston Celtics and Jayson Tatum Disrespected at the 2024 Olympics?:
The episode wouldn’t be complete without discussing the controversy surrounding the Boston Celtics and Jayson Tatum. Despite being one of the NBA’s brightest stars, Tatum’s role on Team USA seemed diminished, and some fans believe both he and the Celtics were disrespected. We delve into the Olympics’ decision-making process, the impact on Tatum’s legacy, and whether this could fuel Boston’s drive for the upcoming NBA season.

Being from the suburbs of Philadelphia, it was hard not to become a Sixers fan during Allen Iverson's prime. Other than just the Sixers, I enjoy watching all forms and levels of basketball, especially the WNBA. Outside of basketball, I've been playing and coaching volleyball for most of my life. Also, after graduating from the University of Pittsburgh, I became a Software Developer by day, while writing and hosting podcasts by night.
