Get well soon skeets 🫡
I’m just so annoyed that Zach E is not on the national team, but instead is in summer league rolling ankles, which is pointless because he’s playing with a bunch a dudes that aren’t even gonna be on the team and they are just running around out there trying to be noticed. Canada is gonna miss his size and rebounding. Get well Skeets
Get Well Skeets🫡 #NoDunks
RC4…go get’em Rick!
i had only read 3/100 books so you're beating me atleast
76ers have 0 depth though, dont really see them improving that much
It’s refreshing to hear some summer league discussion that isn’t dominated by Bronny James. When I saw his 2-point highlight video I cried laughing 😂
The only answer – the book of basketball by Bill simmons
1 year, 3 months and 27 days of being sad about the chances of a NO CHAINS disc golf podcast 🙁
that vintage store analogy for the bucks was brilliant lol
Excellent pod today guys – hope you feel better Skeets! You should definitely get LeighLeigh on one of those summer of champions pods!
Trey, in England they call it Spotted Dick Sporting Goods 😂
Aww yeah, the Fast Friends boys
Basketball book recommendation: There's Always This Year: On Basketball and Ascension by Hanif Abdurraqib
One of, if not the most beautifully written books I've ever read.
14 is the best number: Fernando Alonso, Xabi Alonso, Guti Haz. Become more Spanish, TK!
Rest up Skeets. The olympics are nigh. I cannot wait for the Olympics pod.
Can't wait for the whole country to wonder if Steve Kerr understands proper lineups #firestevekerr
Donovan Clingan >>
i would crush brony on road rush sega 32 bit
Sadly, my boy Dariq Whitehead is doing the exact opposite of dominating as a 2nd year player. All the injuries really derailed any promise he once had. This guy was projected to be a top 10 pick at one point. He ended up being just a spot-up shooter at Duke. But now he can't even do that part.
What about men's v-necks?
As a Nuggets fan I think the Nuggets have had one of the worst summers along with the Clippers. Russ may help in small chunks and he will eat some innings as Skeets says but I really do not want him to take a shot in the playoffs. If it works it works really well but it is not a dependable option
I'm pretty low on the Magic's offseason. This is the last time they'll have a good team AND a huge amount of cap space. They essentially brought back the same team, which seems like a huge missed opportunity. Sure, they added KCP. But he really doesn't address any of their biggest needs. They need ball-handling and high-volume 3pt shooting. KCP isn't a ball-handler and he made something like 1.4 three-pointers a game. It's by no means a bad move, but this was their best chance to do more. They also overpaid a lot of their own players that they brought back. They're banking on internal development without addressing the obvious problems with their roster.
Maybe the Spurs throw in Johnson and a pick to facilitate the Markkanen trade to get Kessler?
I just want to say… Headband Hali is Different… 😀
My takeaway from summer league is that my miami heat has had a highlight worthy dunk every single game. Shoutout Alondes Williams wow and now we’re up 61-24 at the half against the raps
