  • Amateur Hour - Listen to somethingelse

    Seems like a nice guy, but has amateur level sports intellect. Don’t spend your time listening if what you’re looking for is educated and knowledgeable sports takes.

    Repeats the same things over and over. Limited vocabulary gets old and annoying very quickly. “No doubt about it”, “the absolute best” - ugh. My skin curls just hearing that repeated constantly. Read a book and develop some vocab. Work on your craft like it’s important to you. Do something.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Best Of JMV 7-7-26
Q: How might Zubac fit with Halliburton and the Pacers' offense given pace and spacing concerns?
Zubac brings shot-blocking and a different defensive presence; the pace could be impacted, but he can be a threat on the glass and in the pick-and-roll when paired with Halliburton, potentially opening up floor spacing as defenses react to him.
Best Of JMV 7-7-26
Q: From what you've seen, how is Tyrese Halliburton moving along to be ready to start the season?
He is showing real improvement, with his camp in Carmel suggesting he's happier and healthier; there may still be an adjustment period, but his strength and conditioning have improved, and the team plans to ease him into action to protect him early.
