The Hoop Call DITA Productions + The Hoop Call Starters

The Golden State Warriors are BALLIN' out of control and that guy the Chef is bring back 2016. We discuss what has gone SO right for them and whether they should try and go turbo with a trade. Also, the Nets have quietly risen to the top of the East - so why is everyone still worried about them?? In honour of Ole Gunnar Solksjaer we ask the question --> who is the Manchester United of the NBA at the moment? And of course the weekly awards are BACK. 

Hoop Nation hop on and listen in!!

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!

WE HAVE OURSELVES A SERIES!

2-2 Phoenix / Milwaukee. Home court advantage looks STRONG. Teams look evenly matched. And superstars are entering that legend territory. This brings us to many questions - 

Who is the best player in this series?

Who is the MOST IMPORTANT player in this series?

Who has the momentum?

Is Giannis becoming a legend?

We talk about it all in this episode! Let's go!

Giannis is DOWN. Huge. There are no healthy superstars left in the NBA Playoffs. Surely an unprecedented situation! We discuss the problems with the Bucks and why the Hawks are now favourites, with some home truths. Out west, Phoenix are getting cold feet - can they close the deal against the newly mentally strong Clippers? We're not sure, but if they fail... CP3 legacy goes to CP0. 

Enjoy!
