Joel Embiid pushes reporter, Popovich out indefinitely and the red-hot Cavaliers | Good word with good will

In this episode of The Good Word with Goodwill, former NBA front office member Amin Elhassan joins Yahoo Sports senior NBA reporter Vincent Goodwill to discuss Joel Embiid pushing a reporter into the 76ers’ locker room and the possible consequences of that situation.

This morning it was announced that Gregg Popovich is out indefinitely due to a health incident. At 75, it’s hard to imagine him being Spurs’ head coach for much longer. Did San Antonio miss the opportunity to sort out the post-Pop succession?

Vinnie and Amin discuss whether the Giannis trade rumors are real or if rival GMs are fouling the waters in Milwaukee before talking about Grant Williams getting a flagrant 2 against former teammate Jayson Tatum.

Finally, after talking about what Joel Embiid’s suspension could be (and wondering if Joe Mazzulla deserves one too), the guys talk at length about a changing media landscape and the effect it has on player relationships and the media.
