LeBron & The Lakers' ELIMINATION Blows Up Gil's Arena as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew react to the end of the Los Angeles Lakers season where LeBron James & Luka Doncic got bounced from the NBA Playoffs after just 5 games and proved they were no match for Anthony Edwards & The Minnesota Timberwolves. They break down how Ant-Man became an NBA Legend in front of our eyes by packing up the GOAT's Lakers squad and discuss how notorious NBA Villain Rudy Gobert proved to be the x-factor in taking down Luka & The Lakers. They also provide a post mortem on the Lakers' Season by discussing what this team could have done differently to add a Big Man to the roster and predict the future for Luka Doncic & LeBron James, before grading JJ Redick's first season as an NBA Head Coach as the former sharpshooter struggled in his first NBA Playoff appearance. With tears in their eyes they move on to recap Game 5 of the Houston Rockets vs Golden State Warriors series, where the Rockets took a hostile approach to slowing down Steph Curry to get themselves back in the series. The Gil's Arena Crew debates if Houston's approach is dirty or simply playoff basketball and discuss if they can keep up this intensity to force a Game 7. Finally, they break down Adam Silver's recent comments on the coverage of NBA Basketball including a tease that Gil's idea for a USA vs The World All Star game may be coming in the future and react to Stephon Castle taking home the NBA Rookie of the Year award, giving Victor Wembanyama & the San Antonio Spurs one of the best young cores in the NBA.

Hour 4: Ike, Spike and Fritz react to the news of former Sixers guard and NBA Rookie of the Year Michael Carter-Williams reportedly set to begin his boxing career next month.

“I was at the lowest point, I didn't know what I wanted. I didn't even know if I wanted to be alive at the time.” Michael Carter-Williams Former NBA star  In this powerful episode of The Pivot Podcast, former NBA Rookie of the Year Michael Carter-Williams sits down with Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor, and Channing Crowder to share the untold story of his journey through the highs and lows of professional basketball, the quiet moments that almost broke him and uncovering resilience. From instant stardom to injury setbacks and battling to stay in the league, Micheal opens up on how he found the mental toughness needed to keep pushing when the world counted him out and shares how he found peace and joy again. From rock bottom back up to the fullest he's been in his life, Michael talks about the pressure of early success, the lessons learned from adversity, and how fatherhood and personal growth reshaped his mindset both on and off the court. This conversation is raw and honest about identity, perseverance, and finding purpose beyond the sport. He reflects on growing up in a wealthy town but not having wealth, navigating the feeling of being an outsider in both predominantly white and Black spaces, and how basketball became his outlet.   Michael takes the guys through the surreal moment of winning Rookie of the Year with the 76ers, only to be traded the next season. He opens up about being coached by his childhood idol Jason Kidd, their fallout, the challenges of bouncing between five teams in five years, and the mental toll of trying to live up to high expectations.   At one of the lowest moments in his life, Michael reveals how he lost both his NBA job and his fiancé in the same week, sending him into deep depression and self-doubt. He admits there was a time he didn't even know if he wanted to be alive. But through therapy, self-reflection, and rediscovering his purpose, he found his way back, eventually re-earning the trust of his now-wife and securing a two-year deal with the Orlando Magic.   Transitioning into the next phase of his life, Michael talks about his role as an ESPN analyst, the importance of teaching athletes about business, and why mental health is still taboo in NBA locker rooms. He hopes to change that narrative by starting real conversations something he wishes had been available to him earlier in his career.   This episode of the Pivot is about survival, self-worth, and embracing the journey, no matter how unpredictable it gets. Michael Carter-Williams' story proves that success isn't defined by awards or contracts, but by the ability to fight through adversity, rebuild, and come back stronger than before.

In 1975, the University of North Carolina basketball team were being led by two men... A 44 year old coach named Dean Smith, and a 19 year old Freshman Point Guard by the name of Phil Ford. The two of them were about to change the program forever. The ACC tournament was Ford's coming out party as he averaged 26 points a game and was named the MVP of the conference tourney as he helped the Tar Heels shock David Thompson and the defending champion Wolfpack in the finals to advance to the NCAA Tournament. Ford would go from there to have one of the greatest four years in UNC basketball history finishing as the school's all-time leading scorer. As it turns out, this kid was golden as well. Playing for Smith again, he guided Team USA to a Gold Medal win in the 1976 Olympics. His junior season he led the Heels to the Final Four and the title game as a consensus first team All-American and in his final season, he once again was a first team All-American before winning the coveted John R. Wooden Award given out to college basketball's top player. When he done, #12 would hang from the rafters and he still to this day is the $4 all-time leading scorer in North Carolina basketball history. An eye injury would derail his promising NBA career which started as the #2 pick of the Kansas City Kings. He would finish his first year as the NBA Rookie of the Year and was well on his way to a long professional career before his vision was forever altered. His playing days over, Ford would return to Chapel Hill in 1988 as an assistant coach under Dean Smith and in 1993 was on his staff for Smith's 2nd national title and first since another freshman sensation by the name of Michael Jordan won it all in 1982 for the Tar Heels. Ford would stay with Smith until he retired and then another three seasons before leaving in 2000. He tells us on the Past Our Prime podcast how much he loved and admired Coach Smith and how his spiritual guidance may have saved his life. He talks about that sensational ACC Tournament that in 1975 that led him to being on the cover of Sports Illustrated and how a year later he was one of 4 UNC players to bring home an Olympic gold medal for the USA. And he talks about the famous "Four Corners" offense that Coach Smith came up with, and Ford helped him perfect. Before there was an Air Jordan, there was Phil Ford... the best point guard in the University of North Carolina's history and one of the best ever to do it... and he shares his insights and stories with us on Past Our Prime.

My guest for Episode #293 of the My Favorite Mistake podcast is Spencer Jones, a rookie forward with the Denver Nuggets and a Stanford University graduate, where he earned a degree in Management Science and Engineering. Episode page with links and more He averaged 11 points per game over five standout years at Stanford, leading the Pac-12 in three-point shooting as a freshman and graduating as Stanford's all-time leader in three-pointers. Before college, Spencer also secured three high school state championships in Kansas. While his professional basketball career with the Denver Nuggets keeps him on the court, Spencer's ambitions stretch far beyond the game. Passionate about the intersections of sports, health, and technology, he is actively building his brand in the health tech space, leveraging his platform as an athlete to explore innovation and make an impact off the court. In this episode, Spencer shares his journey from high school state championships to becoming Stanford's all-time leader in three-pointers and his transition to the pros. Spencer opens up about his favorite mistake: hesitating to embrace the Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) opportunities during his college years due to concerns about balancing individual branding with team dynamics. Reflecting on how this hesitation caused him to miss out on valuable opportunities early in his college career, Spencer explains how he learned to navigate those challenges and is now focused on capitalizing on his NBA platform while staying grounded in his basketball priorities. Throughout the episode, we discuss Spencer's experiences balancing academics, athletics, and building a brand, including how his Management Science and Engineering degree from Stanford shaped his interest in the intersections of health, technology, and business. Spencer also offers insights into the evolving dynamics of NIL, the challenges of team equity, and the impact of the transfer portal. We explore his presence on LinkedIn as a platform for connecting with alumni and businesses, his passion for investments and startups, and how watching NBA superstar Steph Curry train influenced his own work ethic. Spencer's reflections provide valuable lessons on resilience, legacy building, and preparing for life after sports. Questions and Topics: What's your favorite mistake? Can you explain NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) and the opportunities it offers athletes? How did NIL impact team dynamics, and what was it like balancing individual and team priorities? Did you consider transferring to another school, especially with the new transfer rules? What lessons did you learn about balancing academics and athletics at Stanford? Why did you choose Management Science and Engineering as your major? What impact did being in Silicon Valley have on your development, connections, and career opportunities? How much interest is there among players in investing, startups, and business ventures beyond basketball? What kind of resources does the NBA or players' associations provide to help players prepare for their futures? How does the G League (formerly D League) fit into player development for someone in your position? What factors went into your decision to sign with the Denver Nuggets, especially as a two-way player? How do you approach balancing short-term versus long-term decisions in your basketball and business career? What led you to build a presence on LinkedIn, and how has that platform benefited you? What advice do you have for other athletes about building their brand and preparing for life after sports? How do you manage the pressure of potential mistakes in high-visibility situations like an NBA game?

The guys kick off the episode by talking about the Dallas Mavericks, who have lost four consecutive games and don't look like the defending Western Conference Champions.Similarly, the Minnesota Timberwolves do not look like a team that would've made it to the Western Conference Finals. Is it Anthony Edwards' fault? Do they miss Karl Anthony-Towns? Should the Timberwolves be concerned about the clunky fit of their current roster?Portland Trail Blazers' rookie center Donovan Clingan racked up 8 blocks against Minnesota on Wednesday, and he's starting to look like he might be the best big man in this year's draft class.Victor Wembanyama must've been listening last week when Kevin and Tom told him to stop shooting so many 3s, because he's made 20 of them in his last 3 games and seems to be breaking basketball on both ends of the floor.LeBron James has posted three consecutive triple-doubles, as he nears his 40th birthday. Tom has an incredible stat that doesn't feel real but sums up just how productive this season has been for James. However, the Lakers still have major issues they need to work out.Finally, the guys go through a way too early look at the 2024-25 NBA rookie rankings.

Most kids who play sports share the ultimate dream—becoming a professional athlete, performing on the biggest stage under the brightest lights. Michael Carter-Williams lived that dream. His name was called on NBA draft night, he was crowned Rookie of the Year, and he seemed destined for NBA superstardom. But life moved in a different way, and his greatest challenges would unfold far from the court. The very traits that defined him as an athlete—grit, determination, and resilience—became essential in facing not only physical injuries but also serious mental health struggles, leading him on a journey of self-discovery he never saw coming. In this episode of The Zac Clark Show, Michael Carter-Williams opens up about the darker side of his journey through professional basketball, revealing the challenges that followed the high of winning the league's top rookie honor. Michael shares an honest and raw account of his battle with anxiety and depression, shedding light on the mental health challenges athletes face behind the fame and glory.
