Here's a shocker. The available medical care in Memphis sucks. Welcome to Tennessee healthcare outside of Vanderbilt Medical Center.
Please can we stop talking about OKC. No one likes to hear about free throws and fake “culture”.
What comes first…Clippers Verdict or Epstein file? 😫
In this episode of 1 hour 11 minutes & 14 seconds Tim Bontemps was talking or talking over others for 1 hour and 10 minutes, it's high time he realised sometimes he need to make himself scarce for some time. And what is it with his wearing a cap inside his room and that too a damaged one. ESPN need to provide him one with the logo and make him wear it if he is going to wear one.
You know Timmy b has a small wiener
Welcome to the Hoop Collective, weeeeee talk about the NCAA….
NBA seasons starts tomorrow LFG!!!!
LeBron was right about Windhorst, he acts like he knows these players and their families after a brief conversation 😂😂
Genuinely appreciate Tim Bontemps trying to talk about something interesting off the bat instead of having to hear a rehearsed spiel from Tim MacMahon about some bet he made.
How much evidence can the 76ers give you that they're bad before "experts" believe them to actually be bad? Morey must have a lot of compromising info on the NBA media complex.
The Sixers need the trade PG, he is in the way of good young players. The Sixers have to help Embiid with a real power forward as the Nuggets did for Jokic.
Adem Bona is SUPER underrated as a young big.
Windy how do u have job a lot of ums and huh he can’t talk Jesus
hell,i remember Terry Metcalf. Eric's father,i feel very old
Bahamanian 😂
Kareem grew up as the son of a NY city policeman in the 1960s.
I know Btemps is a wet blanket but why do always trip about the NBA making changes to the all star game when they don’t care about the all star game anyway lol
20:19
Anyone expecting Embiid to be healthy come playoffs I feel bad 😞 for you. Good luck 🍀
Vote Yes for the new Spurs arena go Spurs go
Literally thought Bontemps had a durag on lol
That aj segment was boringggggggg

The hatred for Ja Morant really does have these American white men who cover the NBA talking absolute nonsense. They talked about the Grizzlies injury report as if both Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. tore their achilles and are both out for the season. Their backup point guard is going to be out to start the season and based on that they think the Grizzlies should tank?!?!?!?!?!? The fact that they let their delusional hatred(have absolutely no reason to hate Ja other than the fact that he's an aggressive black man whom they feel got a white coach fired last season) of Ja Morant makes them to continuously say off the wall stupid stuff about the Grizzlies needs to be studied. They want to witness the Grizzlies downfall so much they can taste it and it's quite shocking actually…I've never seen anything like it before honestly.
Loved Bontemps teasing Windy about college stars lighting up an exhibition game. 🙃
This is a very good podcast ….. but it could be great if Bontemps was taken off of it. Bontemps doesn't know how to end a sentence, argues with just about every thing said by Brian, and makes definitive statements and then backs out of each one.
The two guys from end of last week understood how to work with Brian — was one of the stronger podcasts from the Hoop Collective.
Embiid looks like he's just forcing the issue,and will get injured in 10 games 😢😢😢😢
Good thing Sam Presti took over, otherwise OKC would be stuck with some crazy person who prioritized Westbrook and ran off KD and Harden 😂
Grizzlies should trade Ja. Then tank. Hope to get Peterson at pick #1. Get another high pick via the Suns 1st. And rebuild around Coward, Peterson and the other drafted player. Then the next summer trade JJJ. And you are on your way to an excellent and relatively quick rebuild with promising young players.
Is Murray really a higher quality player than Dyson Daniels? I'm not so sure…
keegan is better than dyson daniels?
31:25 I dont understand the Sixers hate like why are these guys personally offended Embiid was injured last year and couldnt play back to backs?
dewey bontemps in the building
Windhorst: "Real talk. What do we think the Grizzlies are going to be this year?"
MacMahon: "Hurt."
🤣🤣🤣
Let's Go
