Manchester City are in the process of extending their most important and lucrative sponsorship deal, with Etihad, the Abu Dhabi-based airline, whose brand is synonymous with the club following the takeover by Sheikh Mansour's Abu Dhabi United Group (ADUG), which bought 90 per cent of the club from Thaksin Shinawatra, the former prime minister of Thailand, in 2008. But, for obvious reasons, this is not just another sponsorship renewal. The City-Etihad relationship plays a central role in a much bigger story: The Premier League has accused Manchester City of more than 100 violations of its financial regulations, rules breaches that it says began more than a decade ago and continue to present day.Manchester City says it has done nothing wrong and declared itself “surprised” at the airing of what it referred to as “alleged breaches.” So the looming court case will match the one of the world's richest sporting competitions against its most successful member clubs. The catalyst for today's conversation is a piece written by Nick Harris, former Mail on Sunday investigative journalist, and one of our guests today.Joining Nick is Stefan Borson, a corporate lawyer and investment banker who helped manage the sale of Manchester City in 2008. It's fair to say they don't agree.

May 16, 2023. If you were watching TV last night, you may have seen NBA history being made. A few ping-pong balls bounced around a lottery machine, and suddenly, the San Antonio Spurs won the first pick at the 2023 NBA Draft, which they'll almost certainly use to draft a potential superstar from France named Victor Wembanyama.Today, a look back at some of the most electrifying prospects the NBA has ever seen – from Hakeem Olajuwon to Patrick Ewing to LeBron James to Wembanyama – as well as the wild, and at times controversial, steps that teams have taken to secure their draft rights. How did the NBA come up with the current lottery system after decades of tweaking the rules? And how has tanking -- or the process of intentionally losing games -- complete reshaped the way NBA teams compete for championships?Special thanks to our guests: Jake Fischer, senior NBA reporter for Yahoo Sports and author of “Built to Lose: How the NBA's Tanking Era Changed the League Forever”; Rohan Nadkarni, NBA writer for Sports Illustrated; Brian Windhorst, ESPN NBA insider and author of “Return of the King” and “LeBron Inc.: The Making of a Billion Dollar Athlete”; Jeremy Woo, NBA Draft contributor for ESPN; and Dave Zarum, basketball historian and author of “NBA: 75.” Hosted on Acast.

The author of “Built to Lose: How the NBA's Tanking Era changed the League Forever” talked to JP about some way-too-early offseason storylines.

Ben Simmons has loomed over the NBA trade market for months. Jerami Grant, Harrison Barnes, Domantas Sabonis, Myles Turner, John Collins are drawing plenty of attention now. There's even speculation about Bradley Beal getting dealt.But which NBA players are actually most likely to get traded before the trade deadline (Thursday, Feb. 10)?On the latest ProBasketballTalk Podcast, Dan Feldman and “Built to Lose: How the NBA's Tanking Era Changed the League Forever” author Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report give their top-10 lists:

Former Miami Dolphins Head Coach Brian Flores has gone public and has filed a class action lawsuit against the National Football League and three other NFL teams - citing the double standard of black head coaches in the NFL to their white counterparts. Takeo and Tutan sound off on why this lawsuit will change the league forever and how the NFL must be better to truly value a game that is made off of predominately Black backs.

Enjoy Aaron's one-on-one conversation with Bleacher Report writer Jake Fischer on his debut book, "Built to Lose: How the NBA's Tanking Era Changed the League Forever." 4:47-5:23: “There was a long Google doc of probably 600 names of people that were this player and his agent and the player's college coach and every single guy who was ever rostered by that team, guys who were in training camp. And then as you get on the phone with other people, you start to ask also, like, ‘Hey, now that we've talked for 20, 30, 40 minutes, and you kind of know who I am a little bit, know the work I'm trying to do, and just the honest conversation I'm trying to have, anybody you think you could put me in touch with that would help me further understand, add another perspective?' Sometimes I'll even ask for specific people.”     14:38-15:47: “For me, before I got into this more newsy space at Bleacher Report, at Sports Illustrated, I was working on “Built to Lose” for a long portion of my time there. I kinda developed a niche at SI of being someone who covered left-of-center stories, like I got coffee with Mike D'Antoni ‘cuz he's obsessed with Starbucks. And my last thing I ever wrote for SI was a profile on Red Panda, so stuff like that. I realized from [those], I don't really cover basketball that much. I kinda cover the people who work in basketball and things about the business of basketball and the ecosystem of the NBA. So it's always been difficult, I think at times, to throw like a random question to somebody, but there's a way to do it in a way that is interesting to them versus, ‘Here's this total left-field subject.' If you go at it kind of with humility and laughing at yourself…”     18:24-19:00: “I really do believe that every page has some type of new information that didn't come out before, whether it was furthering a story that had come out previously or just bringing out a new story altogether. That's a big goal of mine any time I write. I had a really great journalism adviser in high school named Greg Gagliardi, who I shout out all the time, who's one of the people the book's dedicated to. And he taught me back in my junior year of high school, maybe even my freshman year, if you don't have something new, then you don't have a story.”  30:11-30:50: “I really wanted to include the Lakers being that they're the independent variable in all this, where they were the worst team in the league during the five-year stretch in which we cover in the book. And it didn't matter. LeBron still signed there in free agency in 2018, Anthony Davis came soon after, they won a title. So I think that's exactly why tanking does exist in these smaller markets. If you're Utah with Donovan Mitchell, if you're Orlando when they had Dwight Howard, Milwaukee with Giannis, Portland with Dame [Lillard], you've gotta get these guys through the draft and do everything you can to build a contender around them or else you've got no shot.”   35:01-35:11: “The worst team in the NBA was creating some of the biggest storylines and the most interest in its product, so I don't see how it could've been viewed as a bad thing.” Sponsor: Use code TBPN during sign-up at DraftKings.com to claim your free shot at millions of dollars in total prizes.

Tanking is not a new trend in pro sports, but it certainly has seen it happen in waves. From the "Trust the Process" 76ers to the race for Zion Williamson, the NBA has seen their sharing of teams tanking for draft spots in the last decade.     Jake Fischer is a writer for Bleacher Report, and he is the author of Built to Lose: How the NBA's Tanking Era Changed the League Forever. He joined Check Your Brain's Tony Mazur to look at which teams tanked "properly" and which ones did not, and the present and future of the NBA as far as the superstars and analytics go.     Jake's book is available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Built-Lose-Tanking-Changed-Forever/dp/1629378712       Follow Tony on his various social media platforms: Twitter - @TonyMazur Instagram - @tmaze25     Be sure to subscribe to Tony's Patreon. $5 a month gets you bonus content, extra podcasts, and early access to guests.

"Tanking" has become a massive buzzword in NBA culture, and an approach to team-building that sparks everything from vitriol to accolades. Detractors say it's antithetical to winning, a reason ratings are down and an indictment of the analytically-driven geeks now running front offices. Defenders say it's the most effective way for franchises, particularly in small markets, to gather generational talent and turn fortunes. Bleacher Report's Jake Fischer has a terrific new book "Built to Lose: How the NBA's Tanking Era Changed the League Forever," which examines all sides of this polarizing topic, including where the Lakers' fallow period between Kobe Bryant's Achilles tear and the 2020 title fits into this story. Hosts: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: How do you define tanking in the first place, why do people care if it happens and does it actually work? Fischer explains the culture of tanking. SEGMENT 2: After explaining why a zero-sum view of winning leads to a misunderstanding of tanking, Fischer discusses the several years of losing seasons and lottery picks for the Lakers. Was that tanking or ineptitude? Also, what role did Kobe's controversial $48,500,000 extension play in this struggle? SEGMENT 3: More talk about the ripple effect of Kobe's deal, plus the difficulties of combining the Mamba's twilight years, an old-school coach like Byron Scott and a group of lottery pick players. Plus, Andy runs his pet conspiracy theory about the Lakers and the NBA by Fischer. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
