Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

544. ESPN Basketball Analyst Jay Bilas
Q: Jay, how did you approach adding NBA coverage to your broadcasting portfolio, and was it your idea or ESPN's?
I was approached and said yes right away because I consume both games and consider the NBA the best basketball product; I felt it would complement college coverage and broaden the audience.
543. Hall-of-Famer John Smoltz Returns
Q: And how long and how much more do you think you'll continue doing this full time, or could committing to golf be in your future?
Smoltz explains that regular season baseball is important but October is non‑negotiable, and he envisions balancing golf with his Fox responsibilities, potentially continuing as long as it works with his schedule and offers time for the game.
541. A Tribute to Bobby Cox
Q: How would Bobby Cox fare in today's analytics-driven era?
The discussion suggests he could thrive by leveraging communication, respect, and adaptability, using data as a tool rather than a constraint, and maintaining a strong personal connection with players.
541. A Tribute to Bobby Cox
Q: What do you say to criticisms that success was largely due to having legendary teammates on the roster?
While acknowledging talent on those teams, the guests stress that Cox's ability to manage egos, motivate players, and communicate clearly was essential to translating elite talent into championships.
539. Tyrone “Muggsy” Bogues
Q: How did you get involved with the Ones Basketball League (OBL)?
Tracy McGrady called Bogues to invite him to participate; he joined alongside other basketball legends for the Battle of H-City and took on a GM role to help grow opportunities for younger players.
