If you're a basketball sicko... this pod is for you. Today we welcome back one of our favorite guests, ESPN analyst Tim Legler, to talk about what we've learned from this unforgettable season of NBA basketball. Topics include: Why Nikola Jokic and The Denver Nuggets are the clear favorites in The Western Conference, what makes The West the most unpredictable conference Tim has ever seen heading into the playoffs, what makes Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, Chris Paul and The Phoenix Suns still so scary in the playoffs, how Kevin Durant is the easiest "plug-and-play" guy in the league, what's happened to Jayson Tatum and The Boston Celtics this year, who in The Eastern Conference are tier one contenders, why Tim has a hard time fully believing in James Harden and The Philadelphia 76ers, Tim admits he was as wrong as he's ever been about the ceiling of Jalen Brunson, realistic expectations for The New York Knicks and The Cleveland Cavaliers, why The Miami Heat have been such a disappointment (and still might be the biggest sleeper in The East), Tim reveals exactly why he's picking Joel Embiid as his MVP this season and so much more. Enjoy the show!

Portland Trail Blazers Superstar, Damian Lillard for our 150th episode. This is a TRULY special conversation that we hope you all enjoy as much as we did. Topics include: Dame's historic scoring stretch and how it was birthed out of necessity, how he attacks drop coverage and other defensive schemes, why he isn't totally satisfied with his 71 point game, if he believes anyone in The NBA can score 100 points in a game, his unique shooting technique that allows him to confidently pull-up from deep, how he feels The NBA has changed with the 3-point revolution and when he felt comfortable to start taking 10 a game, why he feels the NBA's de-emphasis on veterans is hurting the game, how he feels the NBA is changing for the worse and how he finds peace in all the discourse/noise, why he also feels 'rings culture' is cheapening the game, what he personally defines as a 'successful career', the reality of why he's choosing the NBA path he's currently on instead of joining a super team, reliving his game winners against The Houston Rockets and The Oklahoma City Thunder and so much more.

We are thrilled to share this amazing conversation with our guest, Los Angeles Clippers star, Paul George. There is so much discussed on this episode and we really appreciate his willingness to be open and candid about a lot of things. Topics include: His take on Nikola Jokic and what makes him such a dominant force, The Clippers being the 'poster-child' for the NBA's load management issue and why blaming it all on the players is wrong, trying to develop a rhythm with The Clippers team given how little the team has actually played together, how much he loves playing with Kawhi Leonard and the confidence he brings to a team, why Paul George feels like he was overlooked in high school, his early days as an Indiana Pacers and how he earned the trust to lead that team, how he improved his game in Indy, reflecting on that 3-4 year stretch where The Pacers with Roy Hibbert, David West, George Hill were a legit threat in the Eastern Conference, how they feel that Pacers team changed the modern NBA, Paul shares his best Lance Stephenson stories, the moment Paul George burst into superstardom by blowing by LeBron James and The Miami Heat, describing the challenge of beating LeBron and The Heatles in a 4-game series and how putting Chris Bosh at the 5 spot changed everything that series, his time with Russell Westbrook on The Oklahoma City Thunder and how Paul came to his own conclusion that he could likely not be the best player on a Championship team after his injury, the mental toll it took for PG to come back from that injury and so much more.
