Great stuff!! --- vraiment bon!!

Very good info and great knowledge about the NBA overall. Even alone, Ryan is just very good to listen to!
I recommend strongly, especially with the great insight of Tim Legler!

Seulement pour ceux qui veulent avoir des info sur la NBA. Vraiment super bien conduis, même seul, Ryan Russelo est juste très intéressant à suivre. À ne pas manquer comme podcast!

Terrible

Since ESPN grouped a few podcasts into the Hoops Collective it is an uneven mess. Some host good, many terrible. Strangely for a professional group the sound is often awful, with background noise, taking, dogs, etc.

Trying to be more interesting they often stray into small talk for 10 minutes or so. Little silly stories are fins for a minute or too.

And sorry, Windhorst is a great reporter and guest. BUT THE WORST HOST EVER. stay in your wheelhouse. You are making a mistake.

A Bust

This new format is painful to listen to. These professionals just hang out and shoot the breeze. Little or no structure. Less than 30% real content. I refuse to waste my time listening to some pals “bantering”. I have unsubscribed.
