On this week’s episode we’re jumping into some college hoops talk as controversy has bubbled up around Darryn Peterson. Why is he going off in games and then benching himself when there’s still time on the clock? Will this kind of load management become more common in college sports as players gain more power? We also can’t help but compare Darryn and other top prospect AJ Dybantsa to past NBA greats like Tracy McGrady and Kobe Bryant. In other news, Adam Silver addressed blatant tanking during a league-wide conference call last week. C.J. and I.T. discuss the inevitability of tanking, but also explore potential solutions, including changing how the lottery system works. We also wanted to show some love to Steph Curry’s shoe game, weigh in on Pat Riley’s take that coaches should go back to wearing suits, and give love to Amen Thompson for doing his thing down in Houston.

This week's episode of Point Game is a special one! We're coming to you live from All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles with a live, energetic crowd. In the spirit of this year's All-Star Game we focused on all things LA: IT breaks down what it was like growing up as a Lakers fan in Seattle, playing for the Celtics as a Lakers fan, and then some quick memories from his two short stints played here in LA for his childhood favorite team alongside greats like Carmelo Anthony, Rajon Rondo, Dwight Howard, and of course LeBron James. IT also took some great audience questions, breaking down how he made the jump to super-stardom in Boston, how small guards can still make it in the NBA, and why he's so dedicated to building the basketball community in Seattle.

Jamal Crawford joins Point Game this week to share stories from his decades-long friendship with Isaiah Thomas — from early battles and shared respect to the moments that built a lifelong bond. Few players have seen as much basketball as Jamal, and he brings that perspective to a conversation that blends hoops history with real-life growth. Now former pros coaching their own kids, Jamal, CJ, and IT get candid about the realities of youth sports. They talk about navigating competitive environments, balancing encouragement with accountability, and how parents can support without overstepping. It’s honest insight from guys who’ve lived it at every level. With the All-Star break providing a natural pause, the crew also takes stock of the NBA season so far. They break down first-half surprises — including how the Celtics have managed to stay dominant even without Jayson Tatum — and look ahead to what’s coming after the break. And yes, there are bold predictions… including a case for the Spurs making a serious run.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
