On episode 3 of Sophisticated Scoundrels podcast Aries and Gerard list their top 10 point guards of all time, they pay respects to Bill Russel, they speak on a bit by Bill Burr about the WNBA, and are women funnier than men? All this and so muck more on this episode of Sophisticated Scoundrels.

The gritty blight of New York City in the '80s revealed a cultural resilience, one that ultimately birthed East Coast hip-hop and inspired a style of play on the basketball court that endures today. The elegance of the city's elite point guards, molded by the packed streetball courts, unwritten rules of bruising pickup games, and the perseverance required to survive everyday life, has come to define an era of basketball and American culture. Their transcendent style is etched in the consciousness of all who have witnessed these prodigies. The New York City point gods' lasting impact on the game of basketball can be seen around the world, in virtually every league. The film features a who's who of point guard deities: Rafer Alston, Kenny Anderson, Mark Jackson, Stephon Marbury, God Shammgod, Kenny Smith, Rod Strickland and Dwayne "Pearl" Washington. They brought theatrics, dizzying ball control, stylish misdirection, and a shake-and-bake game from the asphalt to the city's hallowed high school gyms and to the NBA, orchestrating successful offenses at every level. NYC POINT GODS explores not just how the city shaped these distinct players, but how these wunderkinds shaped and advanced the game under their watch, and whose impact continues to shape the game today.

On Episode 138 of the Ballislife In The Paint Show, hosts Ronnie Flores and Ani Umana talk off the cuff about a variety of topics as the travel ball season comes to a close, from players properly resting up during the dead period to their reaction to the passing of the great Bill Russell. The fellas talk about some of the young players they recently saw, including Ron's top 2026 and 2027 performers from the Ballislife Jr. All-American Camp in SoCal. Ani dishes on the Elite 24 roster for this year's event on August 12 and why the UAA circuit gets a bad rap for player talent. Ron and Ani also break down their top NYC Point GODs as a tribute to the recently released Showtime Basketball documentary. The fellas give their take on why the doc should be celebrated for its highlighting of 80s and 90s NYC basketball culture, but why the 1960s and early 1970s will always be the Golden Era for NYC basketball in terms of its importance and impact on the culture. The fellas also salute the great Bill Russell, the Celtics legend and all-time NBA winner who passed at 88 on July 31. Russell was a pioneering athlete whose laser-focus allowed him to prosper in a city where many wanted to see him fail or be gone. The fellas talk about his beginnings at McClymonds High School in Oakland, Calif., what kind of a prospect he was, and what he personally meant to them.
