  • Doesn’t Matter

    It doesn’t matter who they are talking with or about, this is 300 years of basketball knowledge I can’t do without. Best all-around basketball podcast on the air. From AAU to the pros, they know it all, or if they don’t, Jimmy Patsos knows someone who does. Entertaining as well as nuts and bolts.
