  • Internet ppl yelling at clouds

    These people talk so much nonsense. 1/3rd of everything they say is immediately falsifiable. “They don’t play Jovic” yeh they do. He was a heavy part of the rotation before injury and what happened before he got to that part of the rotation was called development by the best development team in the sport. These podcasters sound like children. “Just do something!” Yo the front office is figuring stuff out and has over performed. That they have made an error with Rozier doesn’t make you podcasters... more

  • Toddler like cry babies

    The behaviour of these people needs to be corrected at not the heat front office…sack spo?? the front office has been terrible?? what other team has made the finals and competed so hard the last few years…the constant swearing to try and somehow prove poor points…they don’t know the game well and have very poor insight…I’m happy with teams current direction, youth movement, focusing more on offensively it’s a transition season, grow up. Tiffany does a good job the rest are clowns.

  • Great podcast which is at its best when the main host G. Is at the helm.

    If you want high level basketball talk you will find it here. Giancarlo Navas knows basketball and will offer you insights into what is happening on the floor.

    I am less of a fan of hangover time mainly because I prefer listening to real analysis rather than the silliness of that show. With that said I’d still recommend that you tune in.
