    Real Basketball Talk: No Hot Takes Episode 1 | “TC31, First Wins & A Queen We Lost”

    Daniel Artest opens the first ever episode of Real Basketball Talk: No Hot Takes with something personal. TC31 has officially retired. Tina Charles. Queens bred, UConn made, WNBA legend announced her retirement after 15 years of professional basketball, and Daniel gives her every flower she deserves. Then we talk about Chennedy Carter reminding this league exactly who she is in Las Vegas. The Portland Fire and Toronto Tempo both get their first franchise wins, and the stories behind them are bigger than the scores. And we close on a somber note, honoring Cigi McCollin, a Queens girl, a Hofstra legend, and someone Daniel knew personally, who passed away following a battle with cancer. No hot takes. Just real basketball talk. Every week. 🎙️ Subscribe: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the9450/id1563350360

    She's Always Had Game: Rutgers Basketball with Brittany Wallace

    In this episode, we delve into one of the most significant eras in women’s college basketball—the mid-2000s Rutgers program—and explore the enduring legacy established under Hall of Fame coach C. Vivian Stringer. From the historic 2007 National Championship run by the Rutgers Scarlet Knights women’s basketball team to the national attention surrounding the Don Imus Rutgers controversy, this program transcended mere competition. It played a pivotal role in shaping culture, fostering resilience, and redefining what it meant to represent something greater than basketball. Joining the show is Brittany Wallace (formerly Brittany Ray), a Bronx-born guard who emerged from Rutgers during that transformative era. She became an integral part of the foundation that sustained the program’s unparalleled excellence. Brittany shares her journey, the rigorous standards set within the program, and how playing under Stringer profoundly influenced her approach to the game and her life beyond it. This conversation goes beyond statistics and accolades, delving into the realm of legacy, identity, and the profound impact of Rutgers women’s basketball on the sport.
