On this week's episode of Little Column A, Little Column B, hosts Will Alimonos and Zach Bishop break down a packed slate of Winter Olympic drama, March Madness momentum, and headline-grabbing NBA debates. The show opens with a rousing recap of U.S. men's and women's hockey victories over Canada — tense third periods, electric three-on-three overtime, clutch goaltending, and emotional medal ceremonies (including a powerful jersey tribute). Will and Zach debate the awkwardness of silver vs. bronze presentations, stuffed-animal podium mascots, and why hockey delivered their favorite Olympic moments. From there, the guys zoom out to discuss evolving winter sports formats, hybrid ski events, and why the Olympics somehow feel both overwhelming and too short at the same time. March Madness talk takes center stage next, with Duke reclaiming the No. 1 ranking after a major neutral-site win over Michigan. The hosts break down Cam Boozer's rising stock, Houston's title case, Arizona's résumé, Kentucky's frustrations, Illinois' late-game issues, and the broader seeding and bubble picture as the bracket tightens. On the NBA side, the conversation shifts to tanking reform and whether lottery tweaks or fines can truly stop strategic losing. They also react to Boston's dominant win over the Lakers, encouraging Jason Tatum practice buzz, and national sports media shifts — including ESPN's Women's Sports Sunday rollout. As always, expect sharp takes, humor, game analysis, and a preview of what to watch this week — plus a reminder to get ready for the show's March Madness pool. ⏱ Episode Timecodes 00:00:34 – Weekend Sports Triumph USA hockey wins, Olympic intensity, medal ceremony emotions 00:09:22 – Olympic Highlights and Emotions Silver vs. bronze debate, tributes, podium quirks 00:10:22 – The Evolution of Olympic Sports Hybrid ski events, niche sports learning curves 00:13:31 – March Madness Approaches Bracket outlook, storylines heating up 00:14:44 – Duke's Rise to Number One Neutral-site win over Michigan, Cam Boozer's stock 00:16:32 – Closing Out Close Games Kentucky, Illinois, and late-game frustrations 00:25:12 – Houston's Title Contention Résumé breakdown and Final Four potential 00:29:51 – College Basketball Upsets Wild finishes and shifting seeds 00:31:30 – The Peterson Controversy Ongoing questions and impact on rankings 00:52:36 – NBA Tanking Solutions Draft odds, lottery reform, structural fixes 01:02:31 – Celtics' Dominance Over Lakers Boston's road win, Tatum buzz, statement performance 01:17:30 – Women's Sports Sunday on ESPN Media strategy, scheduling frustrations, broadcast presentation
A title race without a true favorite changes everything. We dive into why Boston keeps stacking wins with Jalen Brown as a full-fledged primary scorer, how Derek White's defense and decision-making glue the roster together, and what Nikola Vucevic adds to the offense with stretch-five spacing and hard screens. Then we tackle the hardest question of the spring: when should Jason Tatum actually return? Five-on-five scrimmages hint at clearance, but playoff readiness demands rhythm, timing, and the right minutes plan. We weigh the risk, the reward, and what a measured ramp could mean for seeding and series matchups.The conversation widens to a league defined by parity. Cleveland's gamble on pure offense with Donovan Mitchell and James Harden could overwhelm half-court defenses—if Harden settles into a No. 3 role when it matters. Out West, the paths to June feel crowded: Jokic's inevitability in Denver, Minnesota's two-way ceiling with Ant at the controls, OKC's readiness to punch above their years, and a Spurs surge powered by a Wembanyama learning curve that feels more like a leap. This is a postseason where health, lineup versatility, and scheme discipline might trump star names alone.We also spotlight the quiet shift of eras. Shai, Luka, Wemby, Brunson, and Maxey aren't waiting for invitations; they're shouldering crunch time and reshaping how teams defend space. The best news? Less superteam gravity, more organic rivalries. For Boston, that means leaning into pace, five-out spacing, and a defense that can win ugly in May. If Tatum's ramp is smart and the rotation holds, the window isn't just open—it's inviting. Tap play, ride along as we set expectations for the stretch run, and tell us your Finals and MVP picks.

Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers break down the opening games for the NBA season on Wednesday. Best bets as always. Munaf Manji opens the RJ Bell's Dream Preview NBA podcast, back from being under the weather and ready for the new season. With 13 games on Wednesday's slate, he and Mackenzie Rivers break down four key matchups, offering sides, totals, and best bets. They begin with the Cleveland Cavaliers at Madison Square Garden facing the New York Knicks. The Cavs are 1.5-point favorites with Darius Garland out, DeAndre Hunter questionable, and Max Strus recovering from foot surgery. The Knicks are missing Josh Hart and Mitchell Robinson, while Karl-Anthony Towns is questionable with a quad strain. Mackenzie likes the Cavs, citing their improved offense, depth, and consistency, noting that even without Garland they're better structured and cohesive. He argues the Knicks' injury list and new coaching approach create uncertainty, favoring Cleveland's early-season form. Munaf agrees, expecting Donovan Mitchell to shine and dominate offensively, particularly with the Knicks lacking frontcourt strength. Both lean slightly toward the over at 227.5, anticipating a strong Cavs offensive showing. Next, they preview the 76ers visiting the Celtics, Boston favored by 2.5. With Paul George, Jared McCain, and Trenton Watford out for Philly and Jason Tatum sidelined for Boston, Mackenzie sees both teams uncertain but leans Sixers due to Joel Embiid's presence, citing his offseason conditioning and potential resurgence. Munaf shares optimism for Embiid and Tyrese Maxey, predicting a big game and slight Sixers edge against Boston's thin frontcourt. For the Spurs at Mavericks matchup, Dallas is -2.5, with key absences including De'Aaron Fox, Kelly Olynyk, and Jeremy Sochan for San Antonio and Kyrie Irving, Daniel Gafford, and Dante Exum for Dallas. Mackenzie leans Spurs, expecting Victor Wembanyama to impress against Anthony Davis, while acknowledging Dallas's experience advantage. They debate rookie Cooper Flagg's outlook, agreeing he's talented but unlikely to have a historically impactful rookie season, noting his youth and the rarity of immediate dominance. Munaf adds that Flaggs' Rookie of the Year odds are overvalued given his supporting cast. They touch on Dallas as a trendy Western Conference pick, with Mackenzie calling it “a hipster choice” but doubting their title chances given chemistry and reliance on a rookie. Munaf concurs, seeing potential but too many variables. Wrapping up, they promote the “Beat Dave Esler NBA Contest” at pregame.com, with $1,000 in prizes and a $75-off code (NBA75) for Mackenzie's full-season picks package. In best bets, Mackenzie doubles down on Cavaliers -1.5, emphasizing matchup dominance, cohesion, and depth. Munaf's best bet is the Chicago Bulls +4.5 vs. Detroit, citing preseason sharpness, defensive improvement, and Detroit's injuries and lack of reliable scoring beyond Cade Cunningham. Mackenzie agrees, backing dogs early-season trends. They close with light banter about gas prices and Munaf's Houston connections before signing off, urging listeners to subscribe and enjoy opening week of the NBA season.

They also hit Al Horford's new Golden State deal and toss out quick NBA futures bets for the season. The conversation transitions to football (00:06:07) and a full NFL recap (00:11:10).

From there, they dive into weekly NFL picks — Rams over the Niners on a short week, a Vikings–Browns preview, Colts vs. Raiders breakdown, Saints vs. Giants reasoning, Cowboys–Jets chaos, Ravens vs. Texans concerns, and betting notes like a Bowers anytime TD (+195) and a Vikings–Browns under play. College football gets the spotlight (00:31:53) with Virginia's OT win over FSU, Oregon edging Penn State, Boise State at Notre Dame, Vanderbilt's surprising start, and the wild post-upset scenes. They also highlight standout performances and preview the next big matchups.

Why NBA Players Keep Slipping (And It's Not Their Shoes) | Curvilinear Running ExplainedEver wonder why elite athletes like Jason Tatum sometimes slip when cutting around defenders? The answer lies in a fundamental misunderstanding between turning and curving that's costing athletes performance and injuries.In this episode, we break down the critical difference between radial and curvilinear running—concepts that sports science has been confusing for years.

Plus, we discuss offseason rumors, Shams Charania's latest trade buzz, and what Phil Pressey's G-League promotion means for the Celtics' development pipeline. We also highlight Aaron Nesmith's Finals glow-up, break down Tony Allen's high praise for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and reflect on some iconic Celtics championship moments. Finally, I share a hot take on why the Celtics should consider moving on from Kristaps Porzingis — and what they should target in the upcoming NBA Draft.
