The basketball podcast BY FANS, FOR FANS! Two hoop fanatics in Jay and Ryan go back and forth every week discussing the past, current and future landscape of College and NBA basketball. Expect lots of Hot Takes, Debates and a True Display of Basketball Knowledge.
*The Basketball Podcast BY FANS, FOR FANS!* With the NBA Draft just over a month away, the 2020 NBA Lottery has been set and the draft order is officially locked in. With that, each team prepares for October as some of the best college and overseas prospects all await that fateful day in hopes of hearing their name called by Commissioner Adam Silver. In this edition of the Hoop Talk Podcast, the guys take a look at the San Antonio Spurs. San Antonio is coming off a disappointing 32-39 finish to the season, snapping there 21-year streak of reaching the NBA Playoffs. But if there are any positive takeaways from this this past season for the Spurs, it should be that they have a very promising young core made to compete at a high level in the Western Conference. Dejounte Murray, Kyle Anderson, Lonnie Walker IV and Keldon Johnson headline a San Antonio team that has some big questions to answer in the foreseeable future like "How much longer will Gregg Popovich be the head coach?" and "What are the Spurs going to do with Demar Derozan and Lamarcus Aldrigde?" But come draft night they have a chance to add to that young core and maybe make their decisions regarding Derozan and Aldridge a little bit easier moving forward. San Antonio has the 11th overall pick (their first lottery pick since drafting Tim Duncan No. 1 overall) and the 41st overall pick. Who do the guys think the Spurs will take with their first NBA Lottery Draft pick in over two decades? Stay Tuned!

With that, each team prepares for October as some of the best college and overseas prospects all await that fateful day in hopes of hearing their name called by Commissioner Adam Silver. In this edition of the Hoop Talk Podcast, the guys take a look at the Sacramento Kings. The Sacramento Kings have been a dormant franchise for the last decade or and honestly things are not looking to great for them right now. They have young building blocks in De'aaron Fox and Marvin Bagley III as well a great trade asset in guard Buddy Hield. But between the stepping down of former General Manager Vlade Divac and the poor coaching of Luke Walton, this Kings team may have the least upside of any team in the Western Conference and maybe even the entire league. Thankfully they have a shot to infuse their roster with some more young talent through the 2020 NBA Draft. In this year's draft, Sacramento have four picks leading with the 12th overall pick in the NBA Lottery as well as the 35th, 43rd, and 52nd picks in the second round. This team desperately needs a game changer in this draft and they have four shots at getting a guy who bring flare and instant production to this struggling team. What do the guys think should be the draft philosophy of the Sacramento Kings come Draft Night? Stay Tuned!

The Los Angeles Lakers are the NBA defending champions and the well documented journey of LeBron James in Year 17 is definitely one for the ages. Although it cannot be disputed that the Lakers won fair and square this season, there are a few things coming up in the 2021 season that could significantly shift the balance of power in the NBA and disrupt their chances at becoming back-to-back champions.

*The Basketball Podcast BY FANS, FOR FANS!* With the NBA Draft just over a month away, the 2020 NBA Lottery has been set and the draft order is officially locked in. With that, each team prepares for October as some of the best college and overseas prospects all await that fateful day in hopes of hearing their name called by Commissioner Adam Silver. In this edition of the Hoop Talk Podcast, the guys take a look at the Portland TrailBlazers. This Portland team was the darling of the NBA Bubble as they fought themselves back from being the 11th seed up to the 8th seed propelling themselves over the Memphis Grizzlies. Led by Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum, this team has a litany of offensive threats on the roster like Rodney Hood, Jusuf Nurkic and even Carmelo Anthony who they may look to retain in free agency this offseason. We also saw promising play from Gary Trent Jr. as a two-way wing worth featuring more in the team's rotation. They most recently acquired Robert Covington from the Houston in exchange for the 16th overall pick but that does not mean they will not still attempt to make a play at one of this year's prospects to help bolster up their depth at small forward. Who do the guys think the Portland TrailBlazers could be eyeing in the 2020 NBA Draft Class? Stay Tuned!

In this edition of the Hoop Talk Podcast, the guys take a look at the Los Angeles Lakers. As the Lakers enter the 2021 NBA season as the defending champions, a target will be drawn on their back by many if not all of the top teams in the league. When taking into consideration the fact that this team was LeBron and AD or Bust, this team will need to make significant changes this offseason if they want any true chance at repeating. To start that process off, the Lakers have the 28th overall pick in the first round and there are some interesting point guard and center prospects available late in the first round that could bring immediate contribution to a title contender like LA. But who do the guys think could be the best fit for the Lakers with that 28th pick? Only one way to find out, Stay Tuned!

In this edition of the Hoop Talk Podcast, the guys take a look at the Phoenix Suns. Led by the superstar talent of Devin Booker and the coaching of head coach Monty Williams, the Phoenix Suns are coming off of a promising 8-0 record in the Seeding Games during the NBA Bubble. Now the Suns have acquired future Hall of Fame point guard Chris Paul which indicates that Booker and this young Suns team are prepping to make a run at reaching the franchise's first playoff appearance in 10 years. Phoenix has some promising pieces like two two-way wings in Mikal Bridges and Cam Johnson, frontcourt depth in DeAndre Ayton, Aron Baynes and Dario Saric as well as a lottery pick in this year's draft. In the 2020 NBA Draft, the Phoenix Suns have the 10th overall pick which gives them a perfect opportunity to acquire a offensive punch off the pench to add some more offensive firepower to this already dynamic roster.

Last week we sat down with NBA G-League Social Media Consultant Jeffrey Sosa to talk about the rise of the G-League and the impact it has had on this season. On this edition of the Hoop Talk Podcast, we dove back into the G-League talk, but this time we came at it with a different angle. We sat down with Sahil Mittal, Founder of the @NBAGLeagueTracker Instagram page and social media assistant for the Windy City Bulls G-League team. We discussed what got him interested in the G-League, what it is like working for a G-League team as a high schooler and the underground feel of G-League basketball. This was a really inciteful pod to be honest in terms of learning about following a niche topic, growing within a niche group/profession and seeing the improvement of the NBA as a league simply through development.

Reports dropped last week that long time Maryland Terrapins Men's Basketball coach Mark Turgeon was resigning, leaving assistant coach Danny Manning to take over as interim. Not to mention that after a 3-0 start, the Terps are now 5-4 and have lost 3 of their last 4 games. With all the early season turmoil surrounding the team, its only right that some true Marylanders share their perspective on the direction of the program and what they think should be the next steps for the Terps. With that being said, we welcomed on fellow Marylanders and long time friends of the show, HMO Podcast co-host Brooks Warren and The Impact Podcast Host Ian Evans to help break it all down!

*The Basketball Podcast BY FANS, FOR FANS!* With the NBA Draft just over a month away, the 2020 NBA Lottery has been set and the draft order is officially locked in. With that, each team prepares for October as some of the best college and overseas prospects all await that fateful day in hopes of hearing their name called by Commissioner Adam Silver. In this edition of the Hoop Talk Podcast, the guys take a look at the LA Clippers. After an epic 3-1 collapse to the Denver Nuggets, the once coveted LA powerhouse now has to regroup following the firing of head coach Doc Rivers and potentially losing a key piece in Montrezl Harrell this offseason. The Clippers only have the 57th overall pick which means they will have to identify a true "diamond in the ruff" if they want any chance at acquiring a rotational player for this roster with that late of a pick. The road to glory for this team is only going to get steeper which means they are going to have to find a way to get better fast with the cards they have been dealt which could mean guys like Paul George and Lou Williams could be in trade discussions. Nonetheless this team has one of the last three picks in this year's draft and they will have to make due. Who do the guys think the Clippers will take with 57th overall pick?
