In episode 247, Max chats with former Boomers and NBL star Matthew Hodgson! Matthew opens up on one of the more unique and emotionally challenging journeys in Australian basketball - from not seriously playing the game until his teenage years, to earning a scholarship to Southern Utah, representing the Boomers, and building a long professional career in the NBL. But beyond the highlights, this conversation dives deep into the mental side of elite sport. Matthew speaks candidly about his struggles with self-confidence throughout his career - even during periods where coaches, teammates, and people around him believed he could become something special. From battling self-doubt and pressure, to overthinking performances, injuries, changing roles, and feeling mentally lost at different stages of his journey, he gives a rare insight into the internal battles athletes often face behind the scenes. We dive into his development through the AIS, the realities of American college basketball, and the transition into the professional game with Adelaide, Brisbane, and Perth. He also reflects on Adelaide's championship-contending years under Joey Wright, his breakout seasons with the Brisbane Bullets, and the challenges surrounding his time at the Perth Wildcats — including pressure, scrutiny, and trying to rebuild confidence while navigating difficult circumstances. Plus, we discuss resilience, identity, leadership, mindset, and the lessons basketball has taught him both on and off the court. A raw, honest and deeply reflective conversation on pressure, self-belief, growth, and the realities of professional sport. All this and much more in episode 247 of Sporting Max! www.instagram.com/sportingmax.podcast/

And the bloodlines group he set up of people that have shaped Tasmanian Basketball, to help the team stay connected to its heritage.Question: What routines do you use to connect your team to the identity that shaped it?If you would like to send us any feedback or if you know a great coach, who has a unique story to share, then we would love to hear from you, please contact us at thegreatcoachespodcast@gmail.com or contact us through our website thegreatcoachespodcast.com The way Scott talks about his evolution as a leder, from Hosted on Acast.

In Episode 1621, Sean Woodley goes solo to talk about the Toronto Raptors getting the 19th-overall pick in this year's draft courtest the Indiana Pacers as a result of Monday's tiebreaker coinflips before talking about what the Raptors options could be if they jump up in the order on lottery night and why Alex Sarr would be the clear addition if the Raptors were to get the number one overall pick. Off the top, Sean digs into the draft gods not looking favourably upon the Raptors when it comes the first-rounder acquired in the Pascal Siakam trade, and why that isn't all that terribly a thing considering what this draft class looks like in the middle tier. Next, Sean examines what the Raptors options would be if they moved up to 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th on lottery night, and digs into why Alex Sarr is the clear pick if they're no. 1, but things get much more murky if they're 2nd or later and Sarr is off the board. Could trading back be the best option? Lastly, Sean digs into the scouting report on Perth Wildcats center Alex Sarr and why his defensive upside and fit on a Scottie Barnes team makes him an ideal option for the Raptors if they're lucky enough to win the NBA Draft Lottery. Join us over on the Locked On Raptors Discord: https://discord.gg/cH6dBrWnSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.
