  • Named “Greatest of All Talk” for a reason

    Best NBA POD out there, in my opinion. The two hosts combine extensive basketball knowledge with personal anecdotes that lead to some interesting insights.

    The takes can get “out there” at times, but it comes from a feeling of genuine belief versus just trying to be contrarian.
