This week we are excited to welcome Bob Myers to ‘The Old Mad and the Three!’ This conversation with Bob was everything we expected it to be, and more. JJ and Tommy open the episode talking about the Oklahoma City Thunder’s expectations for the playoffs and the MVP race. Bob and JJ discuss Bob’s time in the league as an agent (even as JJ’s first agent) and Bob’s various insights into that role, such as the complaints he got the most from players. Bob then got into so much about his time as General Manager of the Golden State Warriors. He talked about his lessons from the position and what it was like joining the Warriors when they had zero expectations, the contagious joy of Steph Curry, what it takes to be a leader in the NBA for both players and as someone in the front office, having Kevin Durant join the team, winning multiple NBA Finals, crisis management, and so much more behind the scenes insights. Bob and JJ also share their experiences calling games for ESPN. Then Oklahoma City Thunder star Jalen Williams joins the show for a check-in and a draft of movie houses to live in.
