    S2E2. The Call with the Rule Changes

    We've been STUNNED by the difference the foul rule changes are making on offense this season. The numbers don't lie and it's a BIGGG change for some players. But will it actually make them BETTER in the longer term? Pippen vs. Jordan takes another twist and we are starting to wonder if Pippen has a point with what he's saying... Out East, Celtics disappoint, Miami impress, and out East we're getting those 2016 vibes.  SO SO MUCH to talk about.  Hop in and Enjoy!

    24. The Call when the Bucks came back!!

    What a difference a few days makes in the playoff world. The Bucks are back in the business. They are 2-2 with the Brooklyn Nets after being destroyed the first two games.
