Not to be confused with the pod from two days ago, an all-new lineup joins the pod to look ahead to the season.
Quady has a big article coming and talked us through his tiers for the season, and we discussed a lot of teams and hit on stuff that was not as heavily discussed earlier in the week....
Nick, Joe, Scoops, Matt and myself circle the wagons for a (somewhat) streamlined look at the offseason and the season ahead. We tried to talk about every team and...almost succeeded, but discussed a lot of the major trades and general goings-on/outlook for this season.
Wes, GX, Joe and JWoo (with a really short cameo from Nick that he says he doesn't deserve RP for, sadface) discuss the 2022 draft results and look ahead to a very interesting FA
We back. We recorded after Sim 2 early this afternoon, but it took about 6 hours for Riverside to export the audio, so now you're listening after sim 3. The app is so comically bad I feel like I'm on a candid camera show that's just hoping I stand up and scream at my computer and throw it out the...
JWoo Merv and Quady gather on MLK Day to discuss topics including the Hawks' dominance, East playoff race, what happened to the west, some off-season/FA discussion, and go through the latest draft profiles and talk prospects.
JWoo, Tyler and Merv convene to preview the Eastern Conference, using a 3 minute timer to stay on track for each team (shocker, that shit works). JWoo also comes clean about his problematic second-round pick addiction.
Part 2 in which we preview the Western Conference inbound later this evening.
Riverside almost fucked me. Had to troubleshoot with their AI bot then email them directly to get the issue resolved. Got the unclickable Failed to Process to turn into Magic Merv and his merry men.
We got:
SoNicks - SoNicks
Celtics - Joe
Magic - Magic Merv
Portland - Blazing Quady's
Lakers -...
Nick, Clint, Merv and myself hop on to discuss the trade deadline, the playoffs, the upcoming tournament of champions, and other big baller-adjacent items.
Bulls, Rockets, and Bullets get together for a post-Christmas pod.
Agenda:
BB Shop talk
Best positioned franchises
Worst positioned franchises
Top assets in the league (Ant surprise number 1?!)
Conference finals preview
Pacers, Raptors, Blazers, and Celtics talk about teams who should either buy or sell, a lot about the Cavs, and some about the worst contracts in the league. Enjoy!
A HodgePodge of GMs (Heimer / GX / Nick / Wes / Matt) hop on the pod to discuss a HodgePodge of topics, including what the Bullets should do next, Sim 1 overreactions, Jayson Tatum, and more
JWoo, Nick and Tyler gather around the mic on the eve of Sim 1 to discuss the state of the league, LaVar's takeover, message board chaos, and preview the upcoming season, touching on most of the teams that are not tanking and other interesting items from preseason.
JBurns, RB and I get together to discuss recent trades, how to adjust to Ashes' changes to the player pool, what the league will be like post-reality, the playoff picture, and the creepiest member of the previous sim league. THIS IS OUR TEAM THIS IS OUR COLTS WE BLEED BLUE
JWoo and Merv are joined by Hoff and Heimer (and Clint for 12 seconds) to discuss the off-season, but we started by talking about Matt's fast food ranks and just kinda went with the flow.
Enjoy, happy free agency, and fuck you Kevon Looney you traitorous harlot
JWoo and Heimer (who had weirdly spotty audio smh and might be cut out for parts of this, not sure) are joined by Big Baller himself to discuss everything that's ballin - the Big Baller Bubble, retiring ballers, the baller lottery, the baller draft and more.
Tong, Merv, Nick and myself hop on to discuss the playoff COVID outbreak, the playoff matchups thus far (after one sim), and some other interesting topics including a suggestion for potential improvements to the RP/camping system (please listen for that part, would love opinions on how we could...
Heimer, Joe and I talk about the Celtics! We also talk about BBL, where we think LaVar will take the league, whether the Playoff Gene exists, and what the Hornets should do with their impending superstar FAs Jamal Murray and Jonathan Isaac.

Weaknesses: Perimeter defense is lacking. Handles need work but isn't a pass-first...
