I was hoping Heat got Lillard but Tim Bontemps is clearly salty Bucks got him because he knows the Celtics title odds now have dropped lol
Poor Bontempts, he’s like Rodney Dangerfield. “He gets no respect” from McMahon 😆
McMahaon always blasts Tim Bontempts for being a wet blanket but he is basically a “damp” blanket. McMahon isn’t always sunshine 😂
All year long they complained about talking about irrelevant Lakers too much. Turns out, the Lakers are relevant. Now they can't stop talking about the Mavs.
Bobby Marks is a very respectable guest. I like how he lets Brian finish his points and then adds his take. Not interrupting whenever he agrees or disagrees. I like when the hues of a podcast respects the one hosting lol
I’m definitely a nerd for the NBA but this group is my favorite of your podcast. The banter between you three is hilarious and you can tell you are all good friends. Too bad each episode couldn’t be just you three but I understand you need other guests. Not expecting you to ever see this comment
Spears seems like a nice guy, but man…. I think a snail talks faster than he does 😂
Now do the Western Conference Preview!
The Pod I was waiting on, EC preview 😍
I x
this might be the most boring episode of a podcast i have ever heard, dang

Whoa. this got heated. This reminded of everyone who always argues that Lebron deserves to be MVP no matter how better of a season someone else may have. I like Windy but man he rides for his flawed opinion way too much.
Butthurt Brian lol
Windhorst is such a baby.
Top 25 based on potential instead of actual production?!? Might as well be a big market wish list and a small market F you.
