After a couple of months, Miguel is back with a new episode! Miguel welcomed Chuy from The Heatwave Podcast to talk about the NBA investigation of Phoenix Suns Owner Robert Sarver, who was accused of racism and misogyny by Suns employees (Note: Episode originally recorded 9.23.22).  The Heatwave Podcast is a podcast centered around the political environment of the State of Arizona from a revolutionary socialist perspective, made by the people, for the people! You can listen to Chuy and his comrades on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast! To start the podcast, Miguel and Chuy discuss the Investigation Report findings and the NBA fining Robert Sarver $10 million and suspending him for just one year. Like LeBron James, Chris Paul, and others, Miguel and Chuy were outraged that Sarver received a slap on the wrist. However, two days before they recorded this episode, Robert Sarver announced he would begin the process of selling the team. You can read the investigation report here. Miguel and Chuy also discuss how the Robert Sarver investigation is another example of White Supremacy, Patriarchy, and Toxic Masculinity in sports. Miguel also mentions the rumors of Jeff Bezos buying the Suns and the issue of capitalism and Billionaire owners. To end the podcast, they talk about former Phoenix Suns head Coach Earl Watson, who is Back and Mexican, and the racism he had to endure under Robert Sarver. Miguel Garcia produced this episode.

Sometimes the most impressive and admirable basketball journeys don’t have the fairy tale script of making it to the NBA. How about leaving your dream school that is nationally ranked for a Mid-Major to find your own way? Or moving country to country (4 in two months) to find the right basketball situation then eventually earning the title of a champion? His path in hoops may seem like a bumpy ride but to us it’s the ultimate success story of never giving up, swallowing your pride for happiness, taking control of your destiny and hey… champion is champion right?Travis Reed was a standout player from the Los Angeles area during an incredible era of hoops. LA was a hotbed producing players like Paul Pierce, Baron Davis, Schea Cotton, Corey Benjamin, the Collins twins, Tobey Bailey, and many more. Reed chose to play for his dream school UCLA. Those UCLA teams included teammates such as Baron Davis, Matt Barnes, Earl Watson, Dan Gadzuric, Toby Bailey, JR Henderson, Jerome Moiso, and other big name players. After two seasons, Reed transferred to Long Beach State to make a name for himself. His success led him to a decorated career overseas that included a few league MVPs and being crowned a champion. It was a joy having Travis on the show with us. We are blessed that he shared his story because he has had such a unique career and we are thrilled for you all to learn about it. You will really get a better understanding of the what players go through transferring schools and playing ball overseas. Travis also has his own podcast called "Travis Reed-A Basketball Life”. What you hear on this episode is a very small sample size of what you will hear on his podcast so be sure to check it out if you love Travis Reed as much as we do! Thank you Travis Reed!You can find his podcast on I-Heart Radio, Spotify, or any main source for Podcasts.

He tells incredible recruiting stories, including landing future NBA standout lead guards Earl Watson and Baron Davis in the same class and how Golden State Warriors GM Bob Myers was a walk-on with low expectations.

And Lavin goes in to great detail about his close relationship with John Wooden and even reveals what Wooden thought of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. -- Please subscribe to Rejecting the Screen, rate, review and share with your friends! -- Rejecting the Screen is part of the Locked On Podcast Network and is released on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

A repost of a recent broadcast: LIVE with ex-NBA head coach Earl Watson! Longtime ex-NBA […] The post [AUDIO] Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson appeared on “Facebook LIVE” with HEAVY.COM | f/Earl Watson | December (2020) appeared first on Scoop B Radio.

On this episode, we've got one we’ve been looking for, knowledge of the game from guys that played it. Earl Watson got into coaching at the pro level after thirteen seasons as a player. By 2015 he was in the head coach seat in Phoenix. The first thing he did was recognize the brilliance in store for Devin Booker and then put him in a position to tap into it. By going through the fires and playing among greatness, Earl’s approach to coaching is with that in mind. For Gil, he recognizes Earl’s philosophy as a players’ coach and the benefit it gives not only stars but your entire roster. Between Earl and Gil they see where it works and where it doesn’t. Also, how to relay that information to the next wave. They see the evolution in talent, and are here to push it forward.

Adam & Noah go ISO with Chad Ford, the host of the Locked On Podcast Network's newest podcast: Chad Ford's NBA Draft Big Board. Chad discusses how he got his start in two different careers: one as an NBA Draft expert and one in conflict resolution as an associate professor at BYU-Hawaii. In combining those careers, he details the communication breakdowns that exist within NBA teams, especially between head coaches and general managers, and says some NBA teams have asked him to mediate conflict within their own organizations. He explains how he develops his "Big Board," how teams use a "tier system" to evaluate prospects, and why fit is so important in determining future success.

Merry Christmas, everybody!On today's special episode, we are going to go back toward right before training camp for a special interview.Before Evan took over as the new host of Locked On Suns, he had a chance to speak with ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowksi about all things Suns on his own platform, BrightSidery.For our nearly 40-minute discussion, we did a complete State of the Suns, looking at their current crop of young players (Devin Booker, Dragan Bender, Marquese Chriss, etc.) and then-head coach Earl Watson.Woj is a big believer in Josh Jackson, so his recent struggles should leave you feeling a little better after hearing him discuss the former Kansas Jayhawk.A quick reminder if you never heard it the first time around, Woj does not have a Skype account. This means, at points, his audio could be a little murky because I had to record off of the TapeACall app, but for most of the time, it was completely fine to me.Happy Holidays, Suns fans, and enjoy this flashback one-on-one discussion with Woj and me!Note: Brendon and I will bring you our thoughts on the last two games, including the recent Mike James / Isaiah Canaan news in our next episode tomorrow, so stay tuned!

The Phoenix Suns have fired their head coach Earl Watson after an embarrassing 0-3 start to the year. I tell you just how bad they have been, and what the future holds for Phoenix.

In this week's episode of the For the Fans, by the Fans Podcast, Paul and Justin share their thoughts on the start of the season, and while "yikes" may sum it up well, they try to find some silver lining.  So, listen in as the guys discuss: - Earl Watson's starting lineup and rotations (NOT one of the previously-mentioned silver linings); - Dragan Bender's improved play on the defensive end; and - Devin Booker's improved playmaking ability. Also, many of you know that Justin is blocked by Eric Bledose on Twitter - and some have even tried to get Bledsoe to unblock him.  Well, Justin is not unblocked yet, but he explains how it is all a big misunderstanding and why he deserves to be unblocked.

Boston Celtics players were unhappy with how Phoenix coach Earl Watson handled the closing minutes of the game. Brad Stevens is upset with Boston Celtics inconsistent play. Marcus Smart is struggling with his shooting in March. The Cleveland Cavaliers loss pulls the Boston Celtics to within one game in the loss column.

Happy New Year to Bright Side of the Sun Nation from everyone's two favorite Suns fans, Paul (@DervishOfWhirl) and Justin (@SoSaysJ)!  Celebrate the New Year with the guys as they bring us a heated episode of Bright Side of the Sun's For the Fans, by the Fans Podcast.  This week's topics include: - The biggest villains in Suns' history (spoiler alert: Justin does not like David Stern... at all). - Isaiah Thomas has been putting up huge numbers, but the guys are still fine with him not being a Phoenix Sun. - A sprited (and some may even say "combative") debate as to whether Earl Watson's offense is pooly designed (as Paul says) or a work in progress (as Justin says).   - Dragan Bender gets some significant minutes.  Paul thinks it is a sign of the Suns recognizing that their good faith effort to make the playoffs is not going to be successful.  Justin thinks it is just a step forward in Coach Watson's effort to bring Bender along slowly, that Bender's minutes will continue to fluctuate, and that Suns fans need to chill. - There may be another friendly wager between the guys on the horizon related to whether or not Eric Bledsoe will be an All-Star... stay tuned!
