    In this weeks' episode, Ryan and Brandon talk about the Women’s College Basketball Championship, the factors behind why women’s basketball is finally becoming more mainstream, and whether the WNBA's season schedule will change in the future to reach more people. Meanwhile in Portland, the Blazers have four games remaining on their schedule, and Ryan is extremely worried that they may eke out two more wins.

    Betting on Scoot Henderson!

    Betting on Scoot Henderson!

    Ep. 83 - As the NBA dissolves the G-League Ignite, Ryan is given his flowers and takes a victory lap for essentially breaking news before it happened. After a detour into NBA players (illegally) betting on themselves and the bigger issues of the NBA monetizing gambling on its own product, Brandon and Ryan discuss the recent surge in Scoot Henderson’s output and debate whether you would rather have him or Amen Thompson - aka the “next Scottie Pippen” - on this rebuilding Blazers squad.

    Is the G-League ruining NBA rookies?

    Is the G-League ruining NBA rookies?

    Ep. 82 - Ryan has a hot take: NBA rookies are less prepared, less well-adjusted, and less developed if they forgo college for the G-League. Is this true? Is "player empowerment" harming the NBA product? And is a player-centric league more or less watchable than when players are a cog in a machine? We discuss this and MORE in this week's episode!

Shoutout to Brandon

Good man who knows how to host a great podcast. Funny, interesting guests along with great analysis that gets Blazers fans like myself thinking about what’s the next step for the team. Keep up the great work, love to hear it.
