  • Real loser

    Gottlieb is a loser, this is a terrible podcast. Stay away from this radioactive gas. He has no clue about basketball and is stealing money from university of Wisconsin-Green Bay. Have a some common sense Gottlieb and give back the money to the university, you are a thief. You stole someone’s credit card and used it to make purchases. How pathetic of lowlife are you that you continue to steal more money?

  • Memories

    I’m just repeating my previous comment with the additional comment- “more please!”

    Awesome look back and lessons learned about personal and professional growth thru basketball. As a forty plus year career sports industry “veteran”, it’s great to hear true stories about life experiences gained thru the game of basketball.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Doug Gottlieb Show: Former SEA QB Matt Hasselbeck on Transfer Portal Fixes, Backing Up Favre, Seahawks SB Run, Lambeau OT Guarantee Regrets026 DGS Show
Q: What would be your fix for the transfer portal?
A binding two-way contract-like system between player and program, with clear buyout terms and enforceable commitments, to create mutual accountability and reduce chaos when players or programs want to move.
DOUG GOTTLIEB SHOW: Goodell's Dominance, 76-Team Tourney Outrage, UWGB Asst. Andy Ground w/ 2025-26 Takeaways,
Q: What drew you to coaching after trying other paths?
A persistent interest in mentoring young people and the enjoyment of daily practices ultimately outweighed other possibilities, leading to a lasting commitment to coaching.
DOUG GOTTLIEB SHOW: Goodell's Dominance, 76-Team Tourney Outrage, UWGB Asst. Andy Ground w/ 2025-26 Takeaways,
Q: What surprised you after a year in Division I that you didn't know before?
Ground notes that basketball is fundamentally the same across levels, but the speed, size, and style of play differ, which changes how you coach and prepare, while core Xs and Os remain constant.
DOUG GOTTLIEB SHOW: Vrabel/Russini: Thus Is Us, Ric Bucher on Giannis Future, Steph/LeBron Last Dances
Q: What gave you the desire to write this new book?
Ric Bucher explains that watching his kids in youth sports inspired him to capture lessons about character, resilience, and coachability, aiming to help both athletes and parents translate those experiences into long-term success.
DOUG GOTTLIEB SHOW: Michigan's Trickledown Hoops Title, Rory: Unlocked, Justin Jackson on Michael Malone/UNC Fit, Matt Holliday's Too Early MLB Takes
Q: What makes Michael Malone a fit for North Carolina in the modern era?
Malone's NBA championship pedigree and reputation for hard work and Xs and Os expertise are viewed as strong core strengths, but success hinges on assembling the right supporting staff and navigating the transfer portal and recruiting changes that distinguish college basketball from the NBA.
