Why is it podcasts?

I thought 30 for 30 were documentaries.

Distill it down to 60 or 90 minutes max please.

i thought they were too but this seems to be so expansive it required more.

Brian Windhorst, Ohm Youngmisuk and Ramona Shelburne begin by discussing the new 30 for 30 Podcasts series, "The Sterling Affairs," about former Clippers owner Donald Sterling's fall from power. Then, the trio talks about how the Clippers and Lakers will perform in the 2019 season (23:00). Plus, will the Lakers take a chance on Carmelo Anthony and/or Dwight Howard (36:15)?

Yeah, disappointed that this was a podcast instead of an actual documentary. I wanted to see facial expressions.

I guess they really dedicated this whole thing to Tokowitz, by being a cheapass about it?

Oh yeah, here's the video of the very first White Party that Blake attended. It was really weird watching it. It all started with some lady who was pribably in her 50s who can't sing for ****. OMG cringeworthy. You've been warned.

Smh that era was insane. The nba should do a every 5 years evaluation of owners and background check to see if they are competent to own a team

Looking back, I honestly don't know how I was supporting a team that was owned by Tokowitz. I mean I was on the same side as him. Obviously, as a kid, I didn't care. I just wanted to enjoy watching basketball.

I found this piece to be very cathartic, actually. I had long since felt that Sterling got his comeuppance, however, I didn't possess enough knowledge on the topic to carry on a meaningful conversation, and, without such conversations, I couldn't put this era behind me. To my eye, this is the perfect extirpation of the Sterling era, and the ideal note to begin this season on.
