Awkward, disjointed questions, silence, and conversational flow in general. They're saved to this point by their affiliation with Fanatics, the little moments where their close bond with each other (or the guest they have on) produces a clippable moment, or their guest is interesting enough to stand on their own. But man, they're just not objectively good at leading and producing discussion in this format.


I keep hoping for OG to be a guest, but it might produce the most awkward silences yet . He has a way of stopping short in a reply when you're expecting more.
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

Its a good podcast. A few NBA players have good ones too. It looks like Josh and Jalen are just better at monetizing them.

He's saying all the right things, talking about how his off-ball game is something he takes pride in, and he's excited about how those skills are going to make the offense dynamic.

Not hating at all, it's ridiculous. The forward 30 seconds button is essential. Don't know if I could make it through an episode without it.

yea it's way more than any other pod i listen to lol. also the production in general is terrible - the volume is usually way too low or there are huge imbalances throughout the show. i would think if they're getting money from all these ads they could afford some better production.

I didn't watch all of it but go around the 45 min mark where Rick Brunson talks about players in the league. He made the league into 3 tiers from his POV, the bonafide stars (20 players), NBA talent (middle class, couple of hundreds) and fringe players like himself. Then talks about overworking people to hit that 10 year mark.

the ep with rick is the best one they did and it's really the first time it felt like everything was very natural and conversations were organic and flowing. prior to this episode I felt they were pretty lackluster podcasters all things considered
