What if you treated hiring at your startup like an NBA Front Office scouting for the next Draft? This week on The Data Minute Podcast, Ashley sits down with Kirk Lacob, EVP of Basketball Operations at the Golden State Warriors, to discuss what it's like to gather the data and make the calls on world-class basketball talent.Kirk argues that data's real value in the draft isn't identifying the best players: everyone already knows who they are -- it's in improving decision accuracy at the margins, even by just 2-3%. He also helps viewers see the direct parallel between NBA salary cap constraints and startup equity allocation.The conversation also compares winning a championship to a successful founder exit: both buy lasting equity with stakeholders that carries the organization through down years long after the moment has passed.Subscribe to Carta's weekly Data Minute newsletter: https://carta.com/subscribe/data-newsletter-sign-up/Read the Total Comp Scouting Report on Carta's Data Desk: https://carta.com/data-desk/Chapters:00:00 – Intro00:54 – Draft Week: The NBA's Christmas Morning03:02 – Data-Driven Decisions: From Moneyball to Margin Gains07:31 – Constrained Resources: Playing Within the Cap12:52 – Valuing Talent Beyond the Numbers16:03 – Hiring for the Stage You're In, Not the Stage You're At19:47 – Delegation, Letting Go, and the Cost of Control25:02 – Failing Fast in a Sport That Remembers Every Loss26:51 – The VC-Founder Parallel: Aligned Incentives (and Where They Break)29:55 – Sweetening the Deal When the Number Isn't Enough38:05 – Championship Equity: What Winning Buys You Long-TermThis presentation contains general information only and eShares, Inc. dba Carta, Inc.

In this episode of On The Ball, Ric Bucher unloads on the NBA's most uncomfortable truths: why “tanking” is getting harder to justify, why a rumored Trae Young-to-Washington deal would be less about basketball and more about money + leverage, and why the supermax era is changing (maybe forever). Ric also tackles the loudest Warriors debate—why fans coming for Steve Kerr are missing the point—and explains what Steph's late-career reality actually means in the new salary-cap NBA. Then Ric turns his attention to LeBron's podcast positioning, the optics of “the league is moving away from ISO” while playing next to Luka, and the awkward self-mythmaking that comes with the exit ramp of a legend. Finally, a fascinating tell from All-Star voting: the NBA's next “face” may be foreign, and Ric names the frontrunner.Time stamps 00:00 — Intro: “Cooking with gas” + where to find Ric 01:32 — Mission statement: angles you won't hear anywhere else 01:39 — Making every NBA game matter + the tanking problem 02:43 — Trae Young traded to the Wizards?!
