Michele Roberts grew up watching the NBA on her TV, but she never imagined she would one day be a trailblazing executive for the league. After Michele was named executive director of the NBA Players' Association (NBPA), she became the first woman to hold this position, and the first woman to lead a major sports union in North America.The recently-retired Roberts has been a beacon for the league's star players, guiding them through a near-lockdown, a global pandemic and a full-blown strike in response to racial injustice. All the while, she's broken down barriers for Black women in sports. In this week's episode, she and Jay Williams discuss her journey from the Bronx to the big leagues, the stereotypes she's faced long the way, and her admiration for other Black women trailblazers like Kentaji Brown Jackson.For sponsor-free episodes, weekly bonus content, and more, subscribe to The Limits Plus at plus.npr.org/thelimits.

Clinton Yates and Ramona Shelburne are in for Sedano & Kap today and they start off with the Lakers - where are they both with this team right now? And what can they do - if anything - to get them back to where they're “supposed” to be this season? The Raiders have a big game coming up this weekend against the Chargers and both teams have a playoff spot at stake. What are the odds this will actually end in a tie? (Allowing both teams to make the playoffs?) And how do you feel about the Raiders heading into this game? Michele Roberts, Executive Director of the NBAPA wants NBA players to have equity in NBA teams. With team valuations rising to crazy high numbers and players making more and more money, does this make sense for either or both sides? How confident are you in the Rams heading into their regular season finale against the 49ers. Clinton explains why it's a huge game and why they can't lose to San Francisco for the 6th time in a row!

Discussion on the NFL informing their clubs that player access in the locker room will be limited this season due to COVID concerns. Chat turns to media availability and access in sports. Discussion on Sha'Carri Richardson being humbled in her last race. Sha'Carri has a bullseye on her back from haters AND her fans. Since she is only 21, she has the potential to be a star for several years.James Cadogan - Executive Director of National Basketball Social Justice CoalitionThis past year has presented the opportunity for individuals, communities, corporations and sports leagues to engage and help make this world a better place. To have the NBA from Adam Silver, the NBPA and the Governors come together as a community is exciting. James talks about his work in relation to dealing with the government, given his experience in working in levels of government in the past. This upcoming season, the first full season in 2 years, will set the tone for what happens going forward in the fight for social justice. James explains the goals of the Coalition. Racism and fighting racism didn't start in 2020. Be a student of history. The work today is a continuation of the work that has begun many years ago. The leadership in the Coalition is a powerful group of people in the NBA. This group is diverse and bring different thoughts and opinions to the table. Justice polices has gone backwards in the last four years. Now we have an opportunity with this current administration. There is bi-partisan support for criminal justice reform.

Hablando de NBA es un podcast de NBA presentado por @JaviMendozaNBA. Debates, entrevistas y opinión sobre la mejor liga del mundo. Además, podrás disfrutar a diario de un #Café con toda la actualidad de la NBA (resultados, declaraciones, noticias, rumores y traspasos), y cada domingo viajarás por el maravilloso mundo de los #CuentosNBA con alguna pequeña historia de NBA que probablemente no conocías. Hoy es miércoles, 26 de agosto de 2020, mi nombre es Javier Mendoza y esto que estás escuchando es el programa número 38 de Café y NBA. ### **Resultados** Victoria de Denver contra Utah, en un partido en el que por momentos rozó la eliminación, hasta que apareció de nuevo un esteler Jamal Murray con 42 puntos 8 rebotes 8 asistencias para solucionar el partido. Y en el segundo partido de la noche, Clippers ganó de 43 puntos a Dallas, metiendo un total de 154 puntos sin prórroga. Paul George metió 35 puntos en 25 minutos y Kawhi Leonard 32 puntos en 29 minutos. ### Estadísticas Y empezamos las estadísticas precisamente con lo que os acabo de contar de Paul George. Nadie en toda la historia de los PlayOffs NBA había conseguido 35 puntos jugando 25 o menos minutos. Y también hay que hablar de Jamal Murray claro, porque está haciendo historia en los Nuggets, ayer consiguió enlazar dos partidos consecutivos metiendo 40 o más puntos, y se convierte en el primer jugador de la historia que consigue eso en unos playoffs sin perder ningún balón en ninguno de los dos partidos. Además, con los 92 puntos que ha metido en los dos últimos partidos, se ha convertido en el jugador de Nuggets con más puntos anotados en dos partidos seguidos, superando un record que databa del año 2010 y pertenecía a un histórico de la plantilla, Carmelo Anthony. ### **Noticias** Nueva polémica esta noche en el duelo entre Clippers y Mavericks. Hay una jugada donde aparentemente... Marcus Morris pisa el talón o el tobillo de Luka Doncic. La verdad es que da un paso algo más largo de la cuenta y bueno... yo dejo las imágenes en mi twitter, @JaviMendozaNBA y que cada uno juzgue lo que quiera. En cualquier caso, Morris ha puesto un par de tweets para zanjar la polémica sin disculparse: "El baloncesto nunca ha sido tan serio como para intentar herir a alguien. No me disculpo por una mierda porque sé lo que pongo en este juego día tras día. Fue un error, dilia con ello. Competir es la razón por la que juego." La NBA y la Asociación de jugadores, han acordado retrasar el plazo de 60 días que preserva el derecho de cada una de las partes a rescindir el Convenio Colectivo tras la pandemia de COVID-19. El nuevo plazo de negociación sobre las modificaciones del convenio para la temporada 2020/21 es el 15 de octubre. Con este acuerdo se garantiza una finalización de estos playoffs de la NBA y se consigue una oportunidad para que la liga y el sindicato tomen decisiones menos precipitadas y más comprensibles con la situación económica actual, atendiendo a los problemas de ingresos de la liga para la temporada 2020/21, así como para este cierre de temporada, y quien sabe si también los años venideros. La directora ejecutiva de la NBPA, Michele Roberts, hizo las siguientes declaraciones a ESPN este martes: "Si todo el mundo sigue siendo teniendo buenas intenciones con respecto a la forma en la que tratamos los efectos económicos de este virus, sólo haremos los ajustes apropiados, y no habrá necesidad de terminar con el actual convenio en absoluto." La siguiente noticia está bastante relacionado con que haya convenio, porque es necesario para que se juegue, la NBA parece que empieza a dar por hecho que el 1 de diciembre esa una fecha imposible para comenzar la liga, y el nuevo calendario se estaría planteando dar comienzo a la competición entre finales de diciembre y principios de enero. Conociendo a la liga... me sorprendería mucho que dejen de jugar el día de Navidad, por lo que si tuviera que apostar, lo haría más bien por finales de diciembre, o incluso el mismo día de Navidad, por dar una fecha más concreta, antes que ver un comienzo de liga en enero. Y vamos a cerrar el podcast de hoy, con una recopilación de titulares relacionados con rumores NBA publicados esta semana: Los Sixers habrían ofrecido el máximo salarial a Jimmy Butler el pasado verano, descartando la continuidad de Tobias Harris, siempre que Jimmy Butler hubiese aceptado no reunirse con ningún otro equipo de la liga. Sin embargo, lo que sucedió fue casi todo lo contrario. Jimmy Butler no firmó el contrato con Sixers hasta tener un segundo contrato firmado que asegurase su traspaso a los Miami Heat de forma inmediata. La temporada de Fred VanVleet no ha pasado desapercibida para nadie, y si bien esperan que se convierta en parte de ese futuro de los Raptors junto a Pascal Siakam, otras franquicias de la NBA van a estar muy atento a las peticiones de Fred VanVleet este verano. Al parecer, son ya varias las franquicias que estarían dispuestas a darle casi cualquier cosa que pida: Phoenix Suns, Detroit Pistons y New York Knicks. Bobby Marks, periodista de ESPN, dijo en el pasado mes de diciembre que VanVleet buscaría una renovación de 25 o 30 millones. Y os pregunto yo... ¿qué opináis sobre esa cantidad? Dejármelo en los comentarios de iVoox. Una vez finalizada la temporada de los Nets, han empezado ya los rumores sobre el posible entrenador de la próxima temporada. Y si bien Jacque Vaughn ha hecho un gran trabajo en la burbuja y la front-office ha pensado en darle una oportunidad, parece que Kyrie Irving y Kevin Durant no estarían interesados, y querrían contar un con entrenador de perfil más alto. Entre los candidatos ya sabéis que suena Tyron Lue y ha surgido ahora un rumor muy fuerte relacionado con una supuesta petición de Kevin Durant para que el entrenador de la próxima temporada sea... Gregg Popovich.

Michael Berkeley's guest on Private Passions is the novelist and short story writer Michele Roberts. The child of a French mother and English father, she was brought up and still divides her time between the two countries. She studied English at Oxford University, worked for the British Council, and then became a writer. She is currently Emeritus Professor of Creative Writing at the University of East Anglia. She is the author of twelve highly acclaimed novels, including 'Daughters of the House' (1992), which was shortlisted for the Booker Prize and won the W H Smith Literary Award; 'Flesh and Blood' (1994), 'The Looking Glass' (2000), 'Reader, I Married Him' (2005), and her latest novel, 'Ignorance' (2012), a war-time novel set in France. She has also published a memoir, 'Paper Houses', dealing with the themes that inform her novels - love, feminist ideals and the legacy of her Catholic upbringing; and a collection of short stories of sex and love, entitled 'Mud' (2010). Music has always played an important part in Michele Roberts's life, and her choices begin with Bach's Magnificat and continue with an aria from Handel's cantata 'Donna, che in ciel di tanta luce splendi', in praise of the Virgin Mary. Michele says she wanted to be a nun as a teenager, and became fascinated by female mystics and saints, including Hildegard of Bingen. She loves Kathleen Ferrier's voice, singing Handel's 'O Thou that tellest good tidings to Zion', which she finds very comforting. She also appreciates the voices of Alfred Deller, Jacques Brel and Bob Dylan, as well as an Italian women partisans' song, Bella Ciao, which appeals to her republican sympathies, and the Portuguese fado singer Mariza. Her choices end as they began, with Bach.
