In this episode we debate why the early 2000s was the toughest era for guards, whether the All-Star Game should be scrapped or totally reinvented, and we reveal our Top 5 most skilled players (with criteria, not clout). Plus: role vs. talent, film over highlights, and what “skill” actually means in today’s NBA.
