The San Antonio Spurs are almost back to basketball, and at Media Day the players spoke to the press for the first time since their unexpected run to the NBA Finals ended in agony. Victor Wembanyama, De'Aaron Fox, Dylan Harper, Stephon Castle and Mitch Johnson all spoke about how they processed the latest chapter in their journey as a team after a summer of reflection.Hosts Tom Petrini, Aaron Blackerby and Zach Montana all made it out to the Victory Capital Performance Center for a first look at these familiar Spurs who have grown a lot.Wemby is the 2K cover athlete, the easy MVP favorite, the face of the league soon if he isn't already, and he is. He spoke about how the wound from the Finals still hasn't closed, and how the bar is even higher this year. We asked him about starting this season as a title contender, with the target squarely on this team's back.Tobias Harris is the new addition to the roster, and in his first appearance before San Antonio's assembled media he broke down how he fits and why he came: to win a title.Dylan Harper is a huge talent who could start for most teams, and he made some waves in a brand new GQ story where he joked (or serioused) about wanting to start. Harper spoke about his ambitions and competitive edge, and everyone from him to De'Aaron Fox and Mitch Johnson seem to agree it's all a good problem to have.

Kaum eine Offseason ist umstrittener als die der Wolves. Über Lamelo Ball scheiden sich die Geister und auch die Personalie Jonathan Kumimga haben viele Experten schon aufgegeben, doch dafür dass es für Ant für den großen Wurf reicht, müssen diese Additionen klicken. Anders sieht es bei den Spurs aus. Die Youngguns aus San Antonio, angeführt von Victor Wembanyama, erreichten schon letzte Saison die Finals, wo sie den Knicks unterlagen. Nun wurde nachgerüste. Aber wird das reichen?

Hosszú sorban állás után a hivatalok segítettek, így az érdi legenda újra a fővárosba látogatott.A híresség meet and greet várólistájára a Tears of Jordan nevű podcast műsor is feliratkozott, így örömmel számolhatunkbe a Magyar Távirati Iroda (MTI) tudósítása alapján arról, hogy új, roppant jubileumi műsor készülhetett el.A hírt az NBA számos nagyformátumú személyisége – Victor Wembanyama, Luka Doncic, Cooper Flagg és Kareem Abdul Jabbar – kirobbanó örömmel fogadta. Kareemnek le kellett ülnie egy időre az izgalom miatt és egy szívgyógyszert tenni a nyelve alá.Szóval itt vagyunk! És Ti kérdeztetek, mi pedig válaszolunk! Eljött az ősz, hullanak a falevelek és most már nem csak a szárazság miatt, mi pedig mindenre válaszolunk, amire csak tudunk.A műsor csodás hatással van mindenkire, aki meghallgatja. Akik csak egy percet hallottak az előzetesből, azok mind száraz lábbal átkeltek a Balatonon.Köszönjük a türelmet, izgatottan nézünk az új szezon elé mi is, jó meccseket, jó dumákat, esetleg egy közös hamburgerezést és közös podcast-felvételt remélünk és „hogy ne változzon semmi”!Mindenkinek köszönjük, hogy itt van velünk!Támogatóinknak, hogy támogatjátok a műsort: roppant nagyvonalú és nemes cselekedet ez részetekről, édesanyáinkvasárnapi imáikba foglalják szent neveiteket.Mivel vannak, akik közvetlen támogatásban gondolkoznak és kik vagyunk mi, hogy útjukat álljuk, ezért létrehoztuk a litván szerelemprojektünket:Revolut: @akosloveÉs köszönjük, illetve namaste!A mikrofonnál a két válasz-gép: Rózsa Dávid & Esperes Ákos

Han pasado tres años desde el Draft de 2023 y aquella clase se parece bastante poco a lo que imaginábamos la noche del Draft. Victor Wembanyama confirmó todo el hype, Brandon Miller ha envejecido muy bien, Amen y Ausar Thompson han encontrado un impacto enorme y varios jugadores elegidos mucho más abajo han acabado dando muchísimo más valor del esperado.Pero también hay historias muy diferentes. Scoot Henderson sigue sin explotar como se esperaba, varios lottery picks continúan en una zona muy gris y otros nombres que parecían tener mucho futuro han caído muchísimo. Al mismo tiempo, jugadores como Keyonte George, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Brandin Podziemski o Toumani Camara han cambiado por completo la percepción de esta generación.En este vídeo repasamos cómo ha envejecido realmente el Draft 2023 tres años después: quiénes son los grandes ganadores, quiénes han perdido valor, qué picks fueron auténticos robos y qué jugadores todavía tienen mucho que demostrar. Si hoy pudiéramos repetir aquel Draft, el orden sería muy distinto.

Ne vous inquiétez pas, Azad revient la semaine prochaine pour défendre son opinion sur le saucisson.Nous sommes un an après la draft 2023 de Victor Wembanyama qui a laissé un grand vide après lui. Un vide que personne ne va vraiment réussir à combler et qui a donné lieu à la cuvée de draft la plus étrange des dernières années. Deux ans plus tard, quel premier bilan en tirer ? Bon épisode !

Victor Wembanyama, Cooper Flagg, les Hawks, Kevin Durant, le Jazz, AJ Dybantsa et d'autres auront tous un rôle à jouer là-dedans. En fin de CQFR, ils reviennent également sur les dernières rumeurs du côté des New York Knicks.Voici tout Ce Qu'il Fallait Retenir en cette matinée du 17 septembre 2026.

Meanwhile, the Spurs add Tobias Harris and keep their title window wide open—will Dylan Harper become the next breakout star alongside Wemby and Stephon Castle?Wes Goldberg and Keith Parish break down every major move, from the Dallas Mavericks' curious roster construction around Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving's return, to the Memphis Grizzlies' frontcourt overhaul with Zach Edey, Isaiah Stewart, and Quentin Post. The New Orleans Pelicans puzzle persists: with Zion Williamson healthy and Jamahl Mosley now at the helm, will roster stagnation haunt them again?

Who will start for the San Antonio Spurs this season? Will newly-acquired free-agent veteran Tobias Harris start, or will homegrown development darling Julian Champagnie remain in his spot? How long can Dylan Harper remain on the bench, and what's the best path forward with De'Aaron Fox as the Spurs build around Victor Wembanyama?These are the questions facing the Silver and Black right now, and the questions the Silver and Black Coffee Hour will answer in Spurs Court. Hosts Tom Petrini, Aaron Blackerby, and Zach Montana put on their best powdered wigs and engage in a debate for the ages.

A postal worker in Nebraska was arrested for stealing $46,000 in sports cards from the mail, including a rare Victor Wembanyama and Tom Brady Kaboom. In this episode, we debate whether it's still safe to mail high-end cards, react to SGC tripling its grading prices, and discuss the mind-blowing $20,000 sale of a Seattle Mariners promotional raccoon card.

Nommé capitaine des Bleus à seulement 22 ans, Victor Wembanyama a vécu une fenêtre internationale riche en enseignements. Quatre rencontres au programme : deux matchs de préparation face à la Serbie, avec une défaite puis une victoire, et deux matchs de qualifications pour la Coupe du monde 2027 contre la Slovénie et la Suède, conclus par deux larges succès. Alors, quel bilan pour Wemby ? Freddy Fauthoux a-t-il fait le bon choix en lui confiant le brassard ? Comment juger sa communication et son leadership ? S'est-il montré aussi convaincant dans son rôle de capitaine qu'il peut l'être sur le terrain ? A-t-il été suffisamment performant durant cette fenêtre internationale ? Et surtout, l'équipe de France a-t-elle su s'adapter à son nouveau leader ?

Une paire de meneurs Strazel-Francisco qui semble déjà indéboulonnable. Un Maxime Raynaud impeccable dans le rôle d'énergizer. Mais aussi un embouteillage à certains postes, avec notamment la concurrence de Coulibaly et Risacher. Des absents qui pourraient être les grands perdants de cette fenêtre. Un Jalen Hoard toujours dans la continuité. Et surtout, un terrible manque d'adresse qui interroge. Sans oublier le cas Nadir Hifi : son profil est-il vraiment incompatible avec cette équipe de France ? Alors, qui a gagné des points ? Qui en a perdu ? Au-delà de Victor Wembanyama, Basket Time passe au crible les performances de tous les joueurs convoqués pour cette fenêtre internationale.

Pour sa première fenêtre internationale avec le brassard, Victor Wembanyama a été au cœur de toutes les attentions. Son leadership, sa communication, ses performances et sa capacité à emmener les Bleus : le nouveau capitaine a-t-il convaincu ? Mais derrière Wemby, qui a marqué des points ? La paire Strazel-Francisco s'est-elle installée durablement ? Maxime Raynaud a-t-il gagné sa place ? Que penser de Jalen Hoard, de Nadir Hifi, de Coulibaly ou encore de Risacher ? Et quels sont les joueurs qui pourraient sortir perdants de cette fenêtre, notamment parmi les absents ? Enfin, Basket Time remonte le temps pour s'intéresser à ces talents qui, malgré leur potentiel, n'ont jamais vraiment réussi à s'imposer en équipe de France. De Joakim Noah à Rodrigue Beaubois, jusqu'au cas Nadir Hifi aujourd'hui : pourquoi est-il si difficile de trouver sa place chez les Bleus ? Sans oublier le quiz de Basket Time / spécial adversaires des Bleus. Avec Pierre Dorian, Alex Biggerstaff et Stephen Brun.

Kevin Danna, the radio voice of the Golden State Valkyries, joins Hoopsology for a deep, wide-ranging conversation covering the most unprecedented expansion story in recent sports memory, his own remarkable broadcasting journey, and where basketball's biggest leagues are headed next. Kevin opens with a personal favorite-memory tradition — crying as a kid after John Paxson's Game 6 shot sealed the Bulls' 1993 title over Phoenix, and being in the building for Golden State's first home playoff win in 13 years back in 2007 — before diving into just how historic the Valkyries' rise has been. He compares it to the Vegas Golden Knights' stunning inaugural Stanley Cup Final run, then walks through the franchise's full two-year build: a roster nobody outside the organization knew entering year one (undrafted French national teamer Janelle Salaün, overseas standout Carla Leite, in-and-out journeywoman Iliana Rupert), role players who broke out into All-Stars (Kayla Thornton, Veronica Burton), and the year-two additions — Gabby Williams and Kiah Stokes — that turned a surprise playoff team into a legitimate title contender now sitting at 28-11. The heart of the conversation digs into what's actually driving the winning: a suffocating, league-best defense under head coach Natalie Nakase that allows the fewest points per game in the WNBA by a wide margin, the league's slowest pace, and a three-point volume approach that bails them out even on cold shooting nights. Kevin breaks down the matchups the Valkyries most want to avoid in the playoffs (namely A'ja Wilson and a stacked Minnesota Lynx roster), before painting a vivid picture of the team's one-of-a-kind fanbase — a crowd almost entirely unconnected to Warriors season-ticket holders, decked out in homemade violet gear at "Valhalla" (their nickname for Chase Center), and known for something almost unheard of in sports: giving standing ovations after losses. From there, Kevin shares his own origin story — from student manager at Stanford alongside future NBA players, to building his resume calling everything from water polo to softball, to a chance Stanford pickup-basketball connection with Kirk Lacob that eventually led to the Santa Cruz Warriors job and, 15 years later, the Valkyries gig. He breaks down why the G League matters far more than casual fans realize — as a rehab site for stars like Steph Curry and Klay Thompson, a coaching pipeline, and a testing ground for rules the NBA and WNBA have since adopted — and shares his own game-prep process across the NBA, WNBA, and G League. The episode closes with Kevin's take on what's next for basketball globally, including his firsthand experience covering French professional hoops during Victor Wembanyama's pre-draft year, his curiosity about the developing NBA Europe league, and the WNBA's ambitious plan to reach 18 teams by 2030.

The 94 WIP Morning Show discusses Jalen Hurts' contract leverage and debate if he will remain the Eagles' starting quarterback through 2027.

Who are the five best players at every position in the NBA right now? Wes Goldberg is joined by Mo Dakhil and Basketball Poetry's Mike Shearer for the RealGM Radio Summer Roundtable to build their top-five rankings at point guard, shooting guard, small forward, power forward and center. There's just one problem: Nobody has seen anyone else's list. The guys debate where stars such as Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Luka Doncic, Victor Wembanyama, Nikola Jokic and Giannis Antetokounmpo belong — and first have to settle an increasingly complicated question: What position does everyone actually play? They compare rankings, defend their biggest disagreements and determine which positions are deepest — and weakest — entering the 2026-27 NBA season. 00:00 Point Guard 14:20 Shooting Guard 23:12 Small Forward 31:50 Power Forward 42:20 Center #nba #nbaanalysis #podcast Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Pags has had enough with what he sees as relentless anti-Trump bias across mainstream news and digital media, explaining why Americans should never blindly accept a headline—even from an outlet they normally trust. His rule is simple: trust, but VERIFY. Then Pags dives into the latest Kennedy Center battle as the Trump administration suggests the building could actually be demolished if the courts block its renovation plans. And somehow, things get even crazier: Victor Wembanyama is reportedly STILL growing, with claims that the Spurs superstar could now stand 7'7" with an unbelievable 8'3" wingspan. Then Georgia Rep. Mike Collins joins the program as he campaigns to unseat Sen. Jon Ossoff. Why does Collins believe Ossoff seems more focused on running against Trump than defending his own record? Collins and Pags get into the Georgia Senate showdown, Trump's agenda and the escalating Canada trade fight—and what that battle could mean for Americans. Learn more about your ad choices.

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil take a deep dive into the Broncos' second preseason game in which they were beat 33-13. Did this result cause the guys to question how great the Broncos' depth is? What positives did the guys take away from Bo Nix's performance? Is Zach ready to admit that Jaylen Waddle will be the Broncos' number one wide receiver after his connection with Nix? With Riley Moss going down with an injury, the guys speculate who will step into his role if needed between KAD and Jahdae Barron. We hear from Sean Payton after the loss and getting played in every phase by the Packers. Today's "Three Count" features Deion Sanders' lawsuit over the "Prime" logo, Joe Sakic saying he's "not really worried" about Cale Makar's contract extension, and he's confident it will get done, and Nikola Jokic losing to Victor Wembanyama in a Serbia vs France Friendly.

Robert Horry is broadcasting this week's show from Reykjavik, Iceland, where he's running a basketball camp — and naturally, that means a special edition of Where in the World Is Robert Horry before the guys even get to basketball talk. Big Shot Bob and Rob Jenners hold things down while B-Dawg keeps him honest on the Iceland details (yes, it really is closer to England than you'd think).   Once the travel talk wraps, the crew dives into a loaded NBA news week. The Dodgers' trade for Tarik Skubal has LA fans wondering if the Lakers can pull off something similar, but Rob Horry isn't buying a big splash — the roster's full and the pool to jump in is more kiddie-sized than Olympic. From there it's Klay Thompson trade buzz, with reports connecting him back to Los Angeles or Miami, and a real conversation about what he'd actually bring to a team defensively at this stage of his career.   The extension talk gets serious with Steph Curry, Anthony Davis, and Karl-Anthony Towns all eligible for new deals — and the guys dig into whether AD's injury history and KAT's apron situation in New York make those moves less likely than people think. That leads into the biggest storyline of the week: is it actually time for Golden State to consider life after Steph? Horry and Harper break down the Warriors' rough draft history since 2012, why Jonathan Kuminga still doesn't have a landing spot, and what a real Steph Curry trade market might even look like.   Plus: the Kawhi Leonard investigation drags into 2027, Victor Wembanyama gets his own signature Nike shoe, Chris Bosh reveals a scary health scare from earlier this year, Kelsey Plum gets traded to the Phoenix Mercury, and Kendrick Perkins' top-5-in-the-East list gets torched. All that, a big shout to a teenage lifeguard hero, and Robert Horry defending his Where in the World title from six thousand miles away.  

In hour 3 of The Drive, Zach and Phil debate if Pat Bryant is on track to become an emerging star for the Broncos. Will Bryant's consistency overshadow Troy Franklin and Marvin Mims' big-play ability with their speed? We pivot to the Nuggets and Nikola Jokic. We hear from the Hoop Collective and their thoughts on how the Nuggets should not want Jokic's extension hanging in the balance. Is Jokic being selfish if he takes the most amount of money possible when we've seen stars like Jalen Brunson and Victor Wembanyama take less recently? Zach and Phil recap their time out at Broncos training camp today. Is the Broncos defense showing they're a top defense again after a slow start to camp last week? 

Hollywood's Headlines includes Victor Wembanyama landing his signature shoe deal with Nike and Bam Adebayo sparking debate after leaving LeBron James off his all-time top five list. Joe shares his own NBA Mount Rushmore, the guys react to Aaron Rodgers crediting his wife for helping him reconnect with his family while questioning why nobody has ever seen her, and they discuss auditions for The Price Is Right coming to Miami.

Hour 2 opens with Joe Rose and Hollywood breaking down the latest from Dolphins training camp, including the challenges of practicing in the South Florida heat and early standouts on Miami's young roster. The guys discuss rookie cornerback Chris Johnson's impressive start, Jacob Rodriguez's ability to force turnovers, and Kevin Coleman emerging as one of the Dolphins' top receivers so far in camp. They also examine the Marlins' trade deadline approach as Miami remains in the playoff race before welcoming high school football insider Larry Blustein to discuss Florida's new playoff format, the top teams across the state, St. Thomas Aquinas' national expectations, and why South Florida continues to produce elite college and NFL talent. Plus, Hollywood delivers the latest headlines, including Victor Wembanyama's new Nike signature shoe, Bam Adebayo's all-time NBA list, Joe's own top five players, Aaron Rodgers' mystery wife, and The Price Is Right auditions coming to Miami.

Can a modern NBA draft class become the greatest defensive class in league history? Wes Goldberg is joined by Basketball Poetry's Mike Shearer to debate whether the 2017 and 2023 draft classes are on pace to challenge legendary groups like 1984 and 1996 thanks to the emergence of Bam Adebayo, Derrick White, Victor Wembanyama, Amen Thompson and more. Then Mike brings his own Good Take on why restricted free agency has become one of the NBA's most misunderstood roster-building tools.  Finally, it's another edition of Summer 3-Way, where Wes and Mike each lay out the three moves they would make to finish the Miami Heat's offseason, including whether Miami should prioritize Klay Thompson, pivot to DeMar DeRozan, target an overlooked young player, or preserve flexibility for the buyout market. Plus, Wes celebrates another Good Take victory as the audience continues to decide who has the best basketball arguments each week. RealGM Radio is your top spot for the best weekly NBA coverage.

Bomani Jones is joined by Vernon “Mad Max” Maxwell for a long, funny, and extremely candid NBA conversation on this episode of The Right Time. Maxwell returns to the show to talk about his second act in sports media, how he still trains like a player, and why he believes some of the biggest storylines in the league are being misunderstood. Bomani and Max dive deep into the Jalen Brown conversation, including why Maxwell remains so high on Brown as a player, why he thinks the criticism has gone too far, and what Brown could look like in Philadelphia alongside Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid. They also get into what Boston may have gotten wrong, whether Jayson Tatum should have done more to keep Brown around, and why the Celtics' decision still doesn't sit right with Max. The conversation also covers Hakeem Olajuwon's one-of-one greatness, Giannis Antetokounmpo trade speculation involving the Miami Heat, LeBron James' future after the Lakers, the appeal of a Jokic-LeBron fit in Denver, LaMelo Ball's evolution, Jalen Brunson's footwork and mentality, and why Victor Wembanyama could be on the verge of becoming the face of the NBA.
