How close is NBA Expansion which could spur a Blazers sale, and how do you stop the tanking image of the NBA....a Ticker stop in Memphis, would you go get Taylor Jenkins or keep Chauncey Billups?
The episode kick-starts with the notorious Robert Horry recounting his hectic travel schedule. From the Big Ten Tournament action in Indiana to Vegas and then off to China, Robert traded stories of jet lag and travel woes, shedding light on the busy lifestyle of a retired athlete turned commentator. As the clock turns to March, the team can't help but buzz about the NCAA tournaments. Robert's affinity for Texas Tech stands out, while the group discusses the current college basketball landscape, reliving the trials and triumphs of teams like Duke and Alabama. Brackets are on the agenda, with the hosts even contemplating show brackets to keep the spirit of competition alive. A significant portion of the podcast is dedicated to dissecting NBA officiating controversies. The crew analyzes Detroit Pistons' coach JD Bickerstaff's fiery outburst over perceived bias in officiating. There's a heartfelt discussion on players like Shaa Gil, LeBron James, and the inequality of foul calls, highlighting the systemic issues in NBA referee culture. Plus we joke about Shaquille O'Neal's slip-up of attributing Chauncey Billups as the coach of the Pistons when it's actually JD Bickerstaff sparked laughter and light-hearted trolling from social media. The crew reflects on how quickly the NBA coaching carousel spins, connecting the dots between coaching situations around the league. The podcast ventures into the NBA playoff race, with speculation around the fluctuating fortunes of the Lakers, who have dropped to the 5th seed amid LeBron's injury. Similarly, the resurgence of teams like the Timberwolves and Warriors sparks predictions about potential playoff outcomes. The inclusion of Jimmy Butler seems to have injected new energy into the Warriors, while the Timberwolves, led by the duo of Ant Man and Julius Randle, are clicking at the right moment. The Mavericks can't catch a break with a litany of injuries, including Kyrie Irving, and a fascinating discussion unfolds on how the team copes. Beyond injuries, the Mavs' decision-making comes into question, especially with their much-maligned AI hype video failing to resonate with fans. This week’s "Big Shot of the Week" title goes to three-year-old Bridger Peabody for his heroic action saving his grandmother. His incredible bravery in retrieving a phone to call 911 after she suffered a serious fall left a mark, emphasizing that even the youngest among us can perform life-saving deeds. As customary, the show wraps with a light-hearted Rapid Fire segment. Robert Ory reigns victorious this week, leaving everyone in smiles and setting the tone for next week’s showdown. 00:00 Introduction and Welcome 00:32 Travel Adventures and March Madness 02:44 Discussing College Basketball Teams 06:50 NBA Officiating Rant 17:23 Shaq's Hilarious Mix-Up 25:10 LeBron's Impact on the Lakers 25:42 Western Conference Standings 27:22 Magic's Streak-Breaking Win 28:12 Warriors' New Energy with Jimmy Butler 31:20 Timberwolves' Resurgence 32:59 Mavericks' Injury Woes 37:48 Big Shot of the Week: Bridger Peabody 40:29 Rapid Fire Trivia

Trail Blazers Radio Broadcasters Travis Demers and Michael Holton talk about the Blazers record setting blowout win over Charlotte. They also break down the upcoming 7 game road trip, and how post all star break play this season is different from the last few years.
His biography is filled with basketball. What's not in Ricado Patton's bio is his childhood which included being raised by his grandmother after his mom left him and his sister when he was just 9 months old. His father wasn't present either, so Ricardo figured out how to navigate life through basketball. His college career at Belmont kept him close to home in Nashville. After college, he stayed in the south for many years as a middle school and high school coach and assistant coaching jobs at Middle Tennessee, Arkansas Little-Rock and Tennessee State. Then came his trek to Colorado where he started as an assistant and three years later, got his break as a head coach. From 1996 to 2007, Ricardo had three 20-win seasons and took the Buffs to the postseason six times. He also landed a huge recruit in Chauncey Billups who would go on to be a #3 overall draft pick. Ricardo left CU on his own terms and continued to coach here and there, including a return to the state of Colorado when he was an assistant for Chauncey's brother Rodney at the University of Denver. It seems Mr. Big Shot is never too far removed from Ricardo. That trend continues today as Ricardo is now the Executive Director of the Porter-Billups Leadership Academy, where he loves the challenge of raising money to help young people from underserved communities become future leaders.
