About this listen

From Sexton's flip-off to Wemby's Monstar moment — this episode dives deep into the chaos, brilliance, and contradictions of today’s game. We’re breaking down the brawl between Charlotte and Detroit, Duncan Robinson walking off, and why Miles Bridges and Isiah Stewart are stacking suspensions like it's fantasy points gone wrong.

But it gets deeper...

We’re asking why some stars get special treatment (👀 LeBron), why Brandon Ingram still doesn’t get his flowers, and how Cam Thomas is the poster boy for how scoring can hurt a team. We're also putting the spotlight on Cooper Flagg’s silent 28 PPG — is confidence enough when you're losing every night?

And yes, we’re giving flowers to Bill Russell — 11 rings, 13 seasons, and still not fully embraced by the city he won for. Racial slurs. Vandalism. And yet... the first Black coach. The epitome of bravery.

🔥 Plus:

  • Why people forget Barry Sanders had no rings but still stays GOAT'd
  • Why new All-Stars play harder than vets
  • Suns playoff attack and Jalen’s X-factor role
  • Special rules for LeBron vs everyone else's standards

Get ready — this isn’t your barbershop debate. This is culture, context, and calling out the game behind the game.
