The NBA goes far beyond the regular season and playoffs. Thanks to social media and the abundance of superstar players and personalities, the league is thriving like no other. Free agency, trades, and all the drama in between has made the NBA the most entertaining show in sports. In this panel Rachel Nichols joins NBA veterans Paul Pierce, Matt Barnes, Richard Jefferson and Gilbert Arenas to discuss how the NBA has adapted to the social media era, share what players really think about NBA Twitter, how accurate all the trade and free agent rumors really are, and give a unique perspective from the other side.

ComplexCon(versations) gathers some of the most prolific figures in music, film, television, sports, and fashion for a series of panel discussions on the subjects that drive our culture. Watch more conversations here: bit.ly/2SaexsZ

"4pts, 2pts, 3pts" I lost it with everyone on the show. Poor RJ, never gets any respect. He was always a very solid player.

I was there in the audience when they taped this. Gilbert was talking soo much shit to Richard, maybe that’s why it took them soooo long to post this video 😂🤣 pretty explicit Edit: Richard made eye contact with me soooo many times too 🤣
