40 Minutes Of Hell

OH WOW LOOK AT THE CLIPPERS

This was too many players to talk about all at once.

QUICK I'll record a reaction episode to the NBA finals if you agree to listen to it.

Toronto has what is looking like a great hold on the NBA Finals, but Golden State knows that a 3-1 comeback is possible! Even, you know, if it happened AGAINST them. Also, we'll chat just a bit about a few off-season headlines and some NCAA rule changes that have LESS than agreeable language to them.

It's Friday, which means a FASTBREAK episode from the mind of Joseph Craven!The Finals have arrived! Which means it's also time to get REALLY bad opinions about everything that happens in the Finals!

Golden State vs. Toronto! Gray Barnes and Joseph Craven break down a little bit of the chaos that ensued during the conference finals, all in an effort to determine whether Toronto has it in them to defeat the Warios.

Joseph finds this to be a very fascinating and deep draft, despite what many people say. Who goes in the top 10? Let's continue our thought process from the reaction episode the other day!

Okay so the episode title is sarcastic, but we are dead serious about conference final excitement and dynasty fatigue.

Oh my, the NBA Draft Lottery shocked EVERYONE when New Orleans and Memphis snagged the top two picks away from the Knicks and Lakers in their quest to rebuild. Will NOLA and Bluff City go the path of the two future centerpieces, Zion and Ja? Will somebody make some moves? Roe and Joseph give their immediate reactions to the episodes RIGHT NOW

Hey, it's a podcast! And this one in particular involves a great deal of Joseph Craven talking to your face about things such as: How wrong he was about the Raptors The bounceback of Dame and the Blazers Whether the Warriors actually are struggling Who makes it out of the East (cause these series are crazy fun)

The trade deadline in the NBA was WILD AND CRAZY, so I talked about it while sitting in a car.

Roe, Joseph, and friend of the program Craig hopped in a car on a rainy day with nothing but two microphones and a lot of hope. What followed was....a mediocre podcast.

Whilst driving down the road, I made a few bad observations about basketball!

With the NBA season in full swing, it makes sense to give this basketball podcast another try. So far, about 40ish games into the season, we get to really look at some surprising storylines, along with some unsurprising storylines too. So that's cool.

LeBron James played pickup ball with Ben Simmons this past week, which makes me wonder if he would've fit in with that lineup from a style standpoint. Or not. Doesn't matter. We will find out when the season starts and not a DAY before.

Kobe Bryant had a birthday, the NBA is changing some shot clock rules, and Manu Ginobli is contemplating retirement. Manu will go down as one of my favorite players ever. He's a heck of a scorer, amazing passer, and has a motor that's unmatched. The one thing he doesn't have, though, is a lot of credit passed his way. Let's pay some respect to the man, and also some of the others who didn't get the credit they deserved during their playing days.

Zion dunks even more, Kobe makes even more money, David Kahn sucks even more, and the Hawks....suffer more? I dunno, I ran out of things to say on that one.

It's the Fastbreak for August 10th! Carmelo got a jersey from Atlanta, the Lakers are given good odds at a title, and the NCAA releases some new rules that we personally HATE so much. A lot of people are excited about the appearance of a reform to the way the NCAA handles potential pro basketball players, but is this actually just a power grab by the NCAA?

It's the official podcast of the JBA! Anybody want to come over to my house and watch the All-Star Game on Facebook tonight?   LeBron opened a school that everyone's talking about, including 40MoH. And Zion Williamson is massive, yet still nimble. Between him and LeBron James, is this the direction that basketball players are headed?

Roe, Adam, and Joseph discuss what players at each position from the pre-2000s would be able to jump into the modern, 3 point launching, stretch 4 having NBA and still work as a starting lineup. It's the debate that nobody asked for!

Look, we all get that Kevin Love doesn't play the same way in Cleveland as he did in Minnesota. Let's not be stupid: it's a totally different team setup. Could the hole left by LeBron James be slightly filled by Love and his new massive contract?

Joseph is joined by Chandler and they discuss the biggest headlines for July 20th. Kawhi gets moved, DeMar gets lied to, Carmelo gets freedom, and the Lakers get DEADLY. All this and a bunch of terrible jokes lie ahead!

There's been a whole lot of stuff going on with NBA Free Agency, which makes for a very lengthy recording session.

The Draft and Free Agency have shaken up the NBA quite a bit, and I haven't discussed with with anyone, so I decided to discuss it with myself.

We thought we were putting out too many episodes, so we took a year or so off, then talked about our top 5 most unguardable players ever.

NBA All-Star weekend quickly approaches! Which begs the important questions of whether the right players were selected and whether any of this even matters whatsoever!

40 Minutes of Hell decide to look at the current NBA standings, try to figure out why the Pacers aren't good anymore, and look at which big free agent signings have been working and what haven't so far. Here's a hint: we don't like Dwight Howard too much.

College basketball has started, and it's glorious! Except, Ben Simmons hates the NCAA. So we discussed a lot of college stuff.

Video games! Debates about centers! A dig into the basketball history of Texas A&M! All this and more in the second episode of 40 Minutes Of Hell, probably.

The debut episode of 40 Minutes Of Hell has arrived! We break down the first few games of the NBA opening week, then predict who we think will be MVP, ROTY, and NBA Champions.
