Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Deep Dive: Seerat Sohi (May 30th, 2026)
Q: Who are the underpaid and overpaid players right now, and what does that tell us about team strategy and market value?
Underpaid players are often those on standout teams like New York Liberty who leverage overseas talent and salary cap savvy; overpaid players can exist due to one-off situations or injury concerns, but overall, the market is adjusting as teams optimize rosters around standout stars like Caitlin Clark and emerging players such as Olivia Miles, showing a broader valuation of long-term potential.
The Deep Dive: Seerat Sohi (May 30th, 2026)
Q: I'm curious to get your sense of how the off-season negotiations landed and what that means for the future of the league.
The agreement gave players 20 percent of revenue shares, which is fair given the WNBA's revenue base, and it should facilitate long-term investment, top coaching, and better facilities, helping the league grow without forcing all players to go overseas in the off-season.
Hoop City with Paul Sir - May 16th, 2026: Hour 2
Q: What impact do you think Mark Cuban's involvement will have on attendance and Canadian basketball growth?
It should bring higher visibility, more investment, and credibility to the league, while also boosting marketing and fan engagement in markets like Brampton and beyond.
Hoop City with Paul Sir: Jacob Wojickci (May 16th, 2026)
Q: What motivates you to coach, and what should parents expect from your program?
I want to give athletes a high-quality basketball experience that also builds character, social connections, and self-esteem, with coaches who are invested and communities that support access for all kids.
Hoop City with Paul Sir: Jacob Wojickci (May 16th, 2026)
Q: Okay. What's the name of your club?
The club is called OTB Academies, and we focus on affordable, engaging basketball with an emphasis on off-ball skills, defense, and personal development.
