50:47 I love Anthony Black, I hope he pans out. I think his limits require him to play a point forward type of role and in all likelihood do so off the bench but he’s so fun to watch on defense.
1:03:52 i heard em called the Brooklyn Conetrotters. 😂
Could Austin Reaves be an all star this year?
Rollins a cross between George Hill and Brandon Roy with elite defense.
You what is so wild about this video is the way both guys absolutely downplayed the Heat. This is a Heat team that was one of the worst offensive teams in the league last year to one of the best this year down their 2 best scorers and went wire to wire with the undefeated Spurs team. I get it no one likes Heat but damn and normally Timpf isn't like that but I know the other really doesn't like the heat.
For having watching this guy for a while now. Rollins main value for this bucks team starts with his disruptiveness on defense and being able to stretch the floor by being a reliable shooter and getting by people with his speed. He’s now developing into a guy that secures the ball and read pnr well (thanks partially to rondo). His near 7’ ft wingspan and defensive IQ give him an advantage. Comps like dame, CJ or Booker are inaccurate. He has the potential of being a much upgraded version of a George Hill-Dyson Daniels imo.
Rollins is a revelation to me. I need to give him until December to kind a see what the Bucks have there. I want to see how he is going to play with KPJ , Giannis at the same time. For his game to keep on growing, he needs to handle the starting point guard slot full time.
Yet again Mares manages to belittle Wemby 😂😂😂
Listening to the post-up advice you would think he turns the ball over a lot, he actually went from 3.2 last season to 1.8 in these 5 games
loved the coverage of rollins today! i'd also point out that another reason for the increase in rim pressure from rollins is that he had a shoulder injury last year that was present until he got surgery in the offseason and this probably limited his ability to attack.
Ryan Pick 'n' Rollins 😄🔥
i'd comp rollins to dejounte murray i think, but at this point rollins could have a higher ceiling
No tim ✌🏾
Re tonight's Nuggets/Blazers NBA cup opener, Jamal Murray is already nicked up again after 4 games. He has to have the most 'minor injuries' of any player in the NBA over the past handful of years. It's really almost unbelievable. His original nickname, 'The Blue Arrow,' never really caught on. I'd like to suggest 'Game Time Decision' Murray as a more apt and accurate alternative.
He also had a separated shoulder last season. I expect his efficiency numbers to drop but he will make it hard for Doc to get all the guards minutes
When a team realizes Rollins goes left and shuts him down and we never really hear about him again >>>
Rol-Linsanity?
Jrue Holiday. Defensive guy who can be a spark plug.
Proud to say I was in the arena for Rollins’ back to back breakout games
the reason bam and ware took so many 3s was cause norm and herro werent out there lol if one of those guys played the heat win that game last night by 10 pts
Very encouraging that wemby is playing closer to the basket, taking fewer 3s, and i believe he will continue to develop is post up and midrange game.
We have to convert Jason. He knows his hoops but as a Laker fan, it's mandatory to dislike him. Forget those losers and get with your home town team Jason!
Why does this dude not like Gary Trent Jr? Lol. He had a 34 pt game and a 37 pt game in the playoffs last year. He's been fantastic for the bucks and really good defensively. A little confusing
New to the All NBA pod, was about to subscribe until about the 30 min mark, where Mares talks about Wemby picking/choosing his spots and wow is it such an ESPN garbage talk. "(Wemby's) a 31% 3pt shooter and THAT'S WHAT HE'S BEEN." WTF are you talking about? Actually what he's been is a 33.8% shooter on almost 7 threes a game for his career. But guess he's just going which a 5 game sample…ok so what he'd been over 4 games was a 36.4% shooter on almost 3 per, than went 1/5 against the Heat. Now he's a lil over 31% in 5 games, so that's what he been. This is ultra lazy analysis. He's not picking his spots? The guy is shooting over 56% this yr, up from 47% on his career, down to 3 attempts per from almost 7, he's obviously picking his spots much much better. Unlike this Mares guy I actually watched the game, 2 of those misses where clear momentum 3s trying to lift the crowd/crush the Heat. Those were fine spots to pick, especially balanced by going 10/21 on his other shots from the field. This guy needs to go join Perk on the All Terrible Takes podcast. Guess it worked, he got my engagement and my view, only cost him a subscriber. Lazy. Like Mares I'm just going to do lazy analysis, and conclude this is what Mares is, lazy bad take guy.
Nba needs to go to a lottery where everyone except for conference finalists are in it, and everyone has equal odds. Tanking is killing the league.
I really love how calmness, insight and passion combine in the show. This was a nice time for me. Thank you 🙏🏀
Been a listener from the start. Guess they can't all be great episodes.
Rollins is an excellent defender with super long arms, a sniper from 3 (career 41.9%, 86 games) an absolute dog… And now, he is showing the ability to drive to the paint and either kick out (6 of his 8 assists were 3s) or get to the rim.
And he is only 23. We gotta gem
Who made the musical intro???
That is the best show music I've heard thus far!!!
This Adam is so insecure about Wemby, haha. It seems like if he praises something about Wemby, his favorite player Jokic will no longer be the best in the world. Dude, relax. Wemby is 21 years old, he's already on the list for MVP and DPOY, and he's going to be all that. You need to overcome this insecurity you have about recognizing his qualities.
Why does Jason say big guard 10 times.. he's not that big
@ALLCITY_NBA Ryan's game is a bit like S.G.A.'s game.
Rollins has a 6'10 wingspan. That helps with his finishing
Unserious comps for Rollins after just 2 big games. Not impossible, but the guy is 23 not 19. Let’s calm down a little bit.
Rollins has shades of John Wall and Gary Payton. Athletic 2 way pg
I'm surprised nobody mentioned a comp of SGA for Rollins.

I love Ryan Rollins game. I wanted my Lakers to sign him with the Bi-Annual Exception.
Don't sleep on Bucks depth, Rollins, Cole, Coffey, Prince, Kuz and Bobby all coming off the bench not bad at all.
Bucks going to be back to back NBA Cup champs… Taurean Prince and Darvin Hamm undefeated in the NBA cup!
Blade Rollins putting the league on notice!
What does bro have against GTJ?? He’s pretty fantastic
Heck yeah Rollins does! Love his game, I'm trying to trade for him in all my leagues lol
I don't see much of a way that OKC doesn't win their group & then win the NBA Cup unless the Warriors stop them.
