Jon and Alex take a carefree, unfiltered stroll through the NBA past and present.
The fellas dust off the cobwebs and have a chat about: our beloved Celtics and HEAT (of course), recent trades (Lillard, Holiday, Harden), the Suns' big 3, Would you rather have Harden or Kyrie?, the inaugural In-Season Tournament (and our inability / lack of preparedness to explain it well), and probably too many beers and too much rambling. Join us on yet another season of the Free Ballers Podcast! We get in better shape as the season goes on, kinda like Shaq. #DribbleLaughLove
The fellas recap the third ever Free Ballers Cup, perhaps one of the best of all time (2023 NBA ECF), as well as the Finals and some off season meanderings while marveling at the new set up and laughing at slide whistles.
We struggle to appreciate the sheer magnitude of The Free Ballers Cup III (AKA NBA Eastern Conference Finals AKA pretty much any Heat vs. Celtics playoff series). Game 7 here we come.
BY THE GRACE OF THE BASKETBALL GODS THE PROPHECY HAS BEEN FULFILLED. THE BOSTON CELTICS WILL FACE THE MIAMI HEAT IN THE NBA EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS FOR THE THIRD TIME IN FOUR YEARS. basketball is tearing this family apart.
We go over some juicy morsels in the new NBA Collective Bargaining Agreement before we are joined by surprise special guest (and hot take specialist) Windy City J. Things get a bit... hazy. Subjects include: The Lakers, Lebron James, The Dallas Mavericks, Kyrie Irving, the Hangtown Fry, giving compliments, refs, The Chicago Bulls, ethical pork consumption, y todos los exitos
Sup y'all? Been a minute, innit? Sorry I sound like Gary Busey GPT (aw hail) this episode. I got y'all next time. The best shitty NBA podcast is back just in time for a playoff push. Listen as Jon and I try to make it into the podcast play-in. -Alex
NGL this is a hefty one y'all. First part is from NBA ECF Game 7 Eve, second part is a day or two afterwards. Much love to y'all for sticking with us. Congratulations to the Boston Celtics for winning the 2nd ever Free Ballers Cup. https://twitter.com/FreeBallersPod freeballerspod@gmail.com
