    Byron Scott (Part 2)

    Byron Scott picks up his career story right after LeBron’s Decision, explaining why he still chose to coach Cleveland, how he helped shape Kyrie Irving’s early development, and what it was like stepping into chaos during one of the NBA’s biggest turning points. He also opens up about coaching Kobe Bryant in his final Lakers years and the fallout that led to his firing. This episode dives into Scott’s post-playing career in detail: the reality of taking the Cavaliers job days after LeBron left, recognizing Kyrie’s greatness from day one, navigating front office politics, and trying to rebuild in impossible circumstances. He reflects on the promises he was given in Los Angeles, why he felt blindsided by the Lakers’ decision, and how coaching Kobe in his final season changed his perspective on the game. It’s an insider look at the pressure, loyalty, and business side of the NBA from someone who lived it at the highest level. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Russell Peters

    Russell Peters joins Byron Scott’s Fast Break for a hilarious, no-filter conversation — from the viral rise that made him a global comedy icon, to why he believes Netflix quietly shut the door on him after his first special. Then it turns into pure chaos with courtside NBA stories, celebrity run-ins, and Russ unloading the real truth about the industry. From Lakers vs Celtics courtside moments and roasting Blake Griffin, to mixing up Dr. J with Marcellus Wiley and talking boxing with Kevin Hart, Russell keeps it brutally honest the whole way through. Plus, he breaks down touring overseas, setting records in places like Dubai and Singapore, and why at this point in his career, all he really owes is the fans — not the industry.

    Danny Green (Part 2)

    Did Kawhi Leonard really think winning in 2019 put him past Kobe Bryant? Danny Green shuts down the rumor, explains how it started, and breaks down why Kobe’s five rings, mindset, and 20-year body of work still live in a different category. Then Danny takes you inside the 2019 Raptors championship run with Nick Nurse — the pressure, the personalities, and the locker room tension that comes with chasing a ring. He also opens up about what it meant to play and win in Los Angeles after Kobe’s passing, and why that season carried a different kind of weight. Plus, Danny talks about what’s hurting the modern game — foul baiting, free throws, and manipulating the rules — and why fans miss real physical basketball. And of course… he closes with an all-time Shaq story, because nothing says “NBA rookie experience” like getting your Christmas Day waffle stolen by a legend. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Paul Pierce (Part 2)

    Paul Pierce throws gas on the PURE scorer debate, breaking down what real bucket-getting looked like in his era and why modern comparisons miss the point. Then he rewinds to the Lakers vs Celtics war, reliving the Kobe battles, the pressure, and what that rivalry actually felt like from inside the lines. And yes — he addresses the ESPN fallout and the viral moments that followed, separating internet narratives from what really happened. In Part 2, Pierce and Byron Scott go deeper than the headlines. Pierce explains how Boston went from the “dog years” to a championship mindset, why playoff basketball used to be a different kind of physical, and how rivalry sharpens careers — especially when it’s Celtics vs Lakers and Kobe is on the other side. He also talks candidly about life after the league: how one clip turns into a storyline, how media runs with it, and what he learned from being everyone’s favorite debate topic. Real hoops, real rivalry, and real perspective from “The Truth.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
