How they say A’Ja ain’t marketable!? She’s goofy, entertaining but listen to her talk about winning and the culture they’ve built in Vegas, that’s an MVP right there. If there’s any positive from the attention that CC and Angel have brought to the WNBA, it’s the well deserved shine that A’Ja has received. And shoutout JT too, this really put his successful career in perspective and to finally have a ring on top of that, at such a young age is incredible.

It's a big man/woman thing. Shaq was the most dominant big man in the world a multiple time champion but he couldn't outsell Iverson in shoes. Damian Lillard, Drose, Ja morant haven't won sh*t but they'll outsell Gianis and Jokic in shoes and jerseys everytime. in a lot of sports, what makes people marketable is how attractive their games are, not how good the player is.

He's done the most choking in the playoffs and needing his co-stars to carry him through his choking too. Man choked twice in the Finals averaging 37% shooting through 2 appearances. When his co-star is collecting the mvps when it matters, he def doesn't get credit like he's the man.

31:02 I love that a Team USA Coach acknowledged the ways Tatum's game has grown over the past few years... he was doing everything in these playoffs, and he did not seem to care how much he scored at all. He was happy to let Jaylen and other guys score at will because the defense was so focused on stopping Tatum. It was perfect team basketball, all that matters is the final score, none of the other stats matter. I'd take Tatum over guys like Luka, Edwards, Shai, etc because his game is much more well rounded. He can score 40, he can get 10 boards, 8 assists, and play fantastic defense with his size and length. He's not done getting better, either. We've seen how hard he works in the offseason, he has improved every year since he came into the league, especially this past year adding some muscle so he could finish through contact. Hope he can stay healthy, the sky is the limit for the Jays!

It's a shame that JJ is leaving but I wish him all the best. Here's some feedback on what I liked about this podcast vs other ones and what I would love to see. 1. Smart - this is one of the smarter pod out there and it helps bball sickos to understand the game of basketball and players mentality without alienating the casual fans. 2. The conversations - I just love how the conversations are deep and meaningful but also a lot of fun. It stem from personal life to bball to business. 3. The Guest - I love the range of guest that you're able to get (I was hoping for a JJ and D Rose chat but guess this will never happy) What make this podcast so much more fun than other is that you guys are mostly unbias towards a player or team or era. The player pods now feels like a venting platform for them to complain about their lost that week. Please continue to provide awesome content.
