thank you for your consideration.
Stop normalizing *srael and panic everyone someone brings up P*lest*ne. And the amount of time you guys spend aspiring to be rich and glorify wealth disparity sickens me. 150 million made off of making people homeless via hedge funds purchasing starter homes for a third of their going price. Be better guys, times are changing, we are not stupid, your silence on your platform is noted and will be remembered as picking a side. It’s complicity in silence
Since someone won an award for sitting there and receiving journalism from Pablo Torre.. this show has become a pretty rough listen.. hope that changes with time.
Fun different view on the NBA. No one cares about the 65 game rule except the egomaniacal journalists with a vote. Regular people want players to play 65 games minimum. Stop talking about it
15 minutes of straight whining about tanking? Not a whiff of analysis, reporting, or insight. Tanking is a problem, and everyone knows that. Who is your rant for? A real shame, and takes away from the work you all do every day. But has become too common on this show, which is full of smart people. You are experts. Be experts!

A sharp, data-driven NBA roundtable with a mix of insiders and analysts who pull back the curtain on basketball decision-making, media narratives, and league economics. Episodes frequently dissect front-office moves, player incentives, tanking, and the role of analytics, often peppered with pop-culture references and banter. Notable is the willingness to challenge traditional narratives and to explore the intersection of sports, media, and business, making it a potentially compelling listen for marketers and sponsors seeking deep basketball insight and candid, humor-infused analysis.
