Cam is a great replacement for JJ. Very thoughtful and gets other players to share differently than in almost any other interviews because he’s a respected player. Tommy is just a terrible interviewer and I don’t understand why he’s there.
Tommy alter is actually the worst interviewer I have ever listened to. I didn’t even know there were bad interviewers until I started listening to this. He gets these incredible guests and then wastes the episodes by asking the most simple, close ended questions that he literally answers as he is asking them!!
I appreciate Cam so I’ll give it 2 stars but Tommy Alter sucks hard
Smartest basketball talk around. Absolutely hate the sports betting advertising though. It’s constant and not at all good for sport and culture.
Great conversation with Moses Moody. A role player in the NBA is the best high school player in the whole state when he was in 10th grade. The man has a lot of interesting things to say. Great interviews Tommy & Cam Johnson.
Really loved this show when JJ could keep Tommy in check. Tommy is constantly trying to use Lingo and create controversy where there is none. He might know basketball is some spots, but he’s not a main host. He’s a sidekick. Stay in your lane Thomas.
