    Everything wrong with the Minnesota Timberwolves - The Inbound Ep. 1 - The Shootaround Podcast

    Current Situation  The Minnesota Timberwolves sit just one place above last in the NBA missing Karl Anthony-Towns, with a stack of underperforming talent on the roster, we are going to look at what went wrong, what is going wrong and where the disconnect lies within the organisation. If you are a Minnesota Timberwolves fan, we are looking at the situation through a different lens, this organisation is currently the worst situation in basketball and we are going to explain why and offer some remedies to the situation, things that Mac and myself may not even agree on.  Welcome to: The Inbound with Mac & Josh  We start at the top with Head Coach Ryan Saunders The son of the late Flip Saunders, a legendary former NBA Head Coach, Ryan is a native of the State of Minnesota and has been around the NBA in official roles for over 10 years. He started as an assistant with the Wizards (under his father) in 2009, working there until 2014. He was then brought over to the Timberwolves (again, under his father) in 2014 before his father’s unfortunate passing in 2015.

  8. Episode 7: James Harden traded to the Brooklyn Nets + 2021 NBA Power Rankings v2

    18/01/2021

    Episode 7: James Harden traded to the Brooklyn Nets + 2021 NBA Power Rankings v2

    NBA Podcast with plenty of news, discussion, debate and super hot takes! This week Mac and Josh quickly jump into the Blockbuster deal of the decade, with James Harden now a Brooklyn Net alongside Kevin Durant and (hopefully?) Kyrie Irving. Harden has already notched a triple-double under his belt in his first game in a Nets uniform, but how sustainable is their level of offensive balance and potential dominance? We also discuss the other three teams involved in the trade, with the Rockets coming out a surprising winner of the trade and the Cavs potentially reinventing basketball by adding yet another big man. Much to talk about and so little time! In addition to this discussion, Mac and Josh provide an update on their bi-weekly Power Rankings for Rookies, Players and Teams! This episode also marks the debut of "The No-Look Pass" where Mac and Josh face off in a battle for NBA knowledge supremacy, while also providing our Performances, Plays and Trash of the Week.
