The NBA is officially in the off-season, with even free agency signings slowing down, and it is time to find other outlets for your hoops habits. Thankfully, the Summer League is in motion, and the 2016 Olympic Games will cushion the blow slightly. However, we are looking for a more permanent solution, and have tried to give the WNBA a look to see how it compares to the pro game, and ponder whether a "WNBA Select Team" could compete in the Summer League.
But then, it's back to the big leagues, as we discuss what exactly the Thunder should do with Russell Westbrook, and hit the trade machine to see if we can come up with some destinations for the superstar point guard.

NBA Free Agency certainly has not lacked excitement, starting with the first shocking announcement of Kevin Durant going to the Warriors, but it has not stopped there. Dwyane Wade has also switched teams, and we wonder which one was more shocking?
We also discuss the best/worst deals in free agency thus far, and whether we agree with the sudden value of NBA deals.

With Kevin Durant choosing to form a dynasty-destined team in Golden State, the ramifications will perculate throughout the whole league. What does it mean for the Warriors, the Thunder, and the league as a whole? Who are the biggest winners and losers of the deal? How long did it take for Russell Westbrook to delete Kevin Durant's phone number?
The Kevin Durant decision, believe it or not, is only one of the things going on in the NBA, as free agency is in full swing. What signing surprised us the most? And is the controversy over free agent money fair or foul?

The NBA Draft is a prime time for trades to take place, and this year was no exception. Many surprises took place both on the draft board and off of it, and the hosts will unpack some of the roster changes that took place.
The hosts will also play a game of "Assist or Turnover" with some of the league's pending free agents, like Rajon Rondo and Hassan Whiteside to see if they would take a chance on some of the players looking for a new home.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are officially the 2016 NBA champions, but their work may not be done yet. With the NBA Draft approaching, will they make a blockbuster deal for recent champion Kevin Love, or stay pat?
Ben Simmons is the presumed first pick, but there are always steals later on both in and out of the lottery, and we attempt to find the diamonds in the rough. We also remember past draft predictions that we nailed in the past, and a couple of regrets.

LeBron James and Kyrie Irving, among the raucous Oakland crowd, pulled off an incredible Game Five performance to take the series back to Cleveland. The question is: did they expend everything they had doing so, and do they have enough in the tank to duplicate that at home in game six?
The Warriors have Draymond Green back in the lineup, but have lost Andrew Bogut for the rest of the series. Are they healthy enough to take back the momentum from the surging Cavaliers?

The Warriors have not looked back from their 3-1 comeback in the Western Conference Finals against the OKC Thunder, and have demolished the Cavaliers in the first two games of the NBA Finals. Is it fair to already consider the Finals over, or can the Cavaliers do anything to turn it around and make it a competitive series?
The hosts will also flash back to some decisions the Cavs and LeBron James have made and see if they would change anything that has gotten them to this point.

The 2016 NBA Western Conference Finals will go down as one to remember, and it may have left us with more questions than answers. The hosts will attempt to answer some of them, like where the comeback ranks, was it an upset, and what does it ultimately mean for the future of Kevin Durant?
After they pay their respects to the departed OKC Thunder and Toronto Raptors, the focus will be all things NBA Finals between the Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Does either team benefit from having played last year in the Finals against one another? What is on the line for the legacies of the various superstars? How many hours will JR Smith stay awake straight if he is a champion?

After looking completely out of their league in the first two games of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Toronto Raptors gave Jurassic Park and company reason to believe in Game 3 with a double-digit victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Is this a sign that the Cavs finally have some opposition for the Eastern Conference crown, or are the Raptors simply poised for the gentlemen's sweep?
The hosts will also discuss unique awards for the playoffs, like who was this year's LaMarcus Aldridge and Chris Paul.

Welcome to "The Mad Scientist's Sports Lab", the 2015 Online Media Award Winning Podcast by What A Fan, part of the War Room Sports Podcast Network, sponsored by DeWalt Brewing Company, and hosted by "The Mad Scientist of Sports" Nick Ficorelli and "The Nutty Professor" Andrew Gluchov. This is not the average everyday sports show they are bringing to the air waves. "The Mad Scientist" has created his own personal sports lab, and you, the audience, as well as many of his special guests, will be his test subjects. He will throw theories out, and you never know where they will be coming from. He will keep everyone guessing, and he will open his lab to any and all comers. Be prepared for "mad science" sports talk at its best.
This week on "The Mad Scientist's Sports Lab", we will be talking NBA Playoffs, major league mayhem in baseball with "unwritten rules", and of course, the news of the week. At the open, we welcome Ron Sullivan of Corner Pub Sports to talk baseball - did Odor or Batista break any "unwritten rules", the struggles of Matt Harvey, is Chris Sale part of today's Mt. Rushmore of pitchers, and the Phillies surprising start. Then we have Shane Young of Today's Fastbreak and Basketball Breakdown to talk basketball - is Cleveland unstoppable, can OKC strike back against the Warriors, and some NBA draft talk . In hour #2, Nick and Drew go head on into the news of the week, and of course, there will be a "King of Rants" moment just waiting to happen
The beacons are lit, the experiments are on the board, and the test subjects are at the ready. The Mad Scientist's Sports Lab is officially open for business.
