  • Respect

    Chris has grown so much over the years. And Jimmy has some great takes. Ethan knows his stuff but I just can’t follow the cadence of his talking. It grates on me for some reason.

  • STILL Amateur hour

    After a few months off, I was hopeful this podcast dropped high school level Ethan but he’s still somehow the moderator of this awful pod. And Chris offers no objective perspective. Just non stop showering of blandishments and kissing of butt content. I mean Cavs are great but come on Chris, last year you defended inept JB and this year you proclaim Niang is untradeable?! lol. Must do better here!

  • Ethan your mic is hot garbage.

    I enjoy this podcast and its content but for the love of God Ethan can you buy a mic that doesn’t sound like you’re talking into a Nokia inside of a wind tunnel. It’s a podcast. Produce quality audio.

  • An embarrassing listen

    Fedor is one of very few people who can give good Cavs insight, but it’s become so plainly a habit for him to have an incompetent co-host that I’m starting to wonder if he deliberately prefers it this way, so that he can seem smarter. That’s the only explanation I could come up with for having Hayden and now Ethan co-host. They are truly the two least qualified people I’ve ever heard host a podcast, and that’s saying something! I want to keep up on the Cavs, but this is an embarrassing listen.

Q: Do you guys think the Cavs can get to 50 wins?
I predict they could win at least 20 of their remaining games, potentially reaching 54 to 56 wins this season, depending on health and other factors.

Q: What do you think about the chances of them getting some practice time in before coming back next week?
No, there is a possibility of only one practice before they leave for Charlotte, but the All-Star Break generally means a break from practices and on-court activities.
Could the Cavs reclaim the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference? Hey, Chris!
Q: Do you think Koby Altman will be named Executive of the Year?
There's been so much speculation about Koby Altman, but he deserves credit for his decisions this season, especially regarding trades and drafting.
