    AUSTIN RIVERS VS NAS ??? W/ Maine from More Than The Masters

    This video features a conversation between the hosts of the More Than The Masters podcast and a special guest, exploring the recent viral online conflict between former NBA player Austin Rivers and professional one-on-one basketball player Nas.  Key Discussion Points: The Rivers vs. Nas Situation: The hosts analyze how a social media interaction escalated into a debate about whether Austin Rivers should play Nas in a one-on-one basketball game.
