In this episode Sam Orlik recaps the last few games where the Warriors have now dropped 2 out of their last 3 and the sky is falling. Or is it just another regular season game and we shouldn’t overact? Tune in and find out more!
The Kings had, at last, a decent week of basketball! In beating the current 5th seeded Clippers in back-to-back games, Sacramento moved themselves within 1 game of the 10th seed, and just 2 out of 5th (!). Take away two blow-out losses to Memphis and the Lakers, and this team has played some inspired basketball under Alvin Gentry.
We discuss what’s going right for this team (what up, Terrence Davis), Marvin Bagley’s showcasing, play a round of “Fact or Fiction,” and look ahead to a December FILLED with basketball at Golden One Center.
Keith and Trey officially introduce themselves to all you Bulls fans and recount some of their best (and worst) Bulls memories. They also chat about the upcoming game against the Denver Nuggets and some Zach LaVine player comps from the past few seasons, among many other Bulls subjects!
New hosts Keith Cork and Trey Hill give some rapid reactions and insights into the latest Bulls victory over the Brooklyn Nets. The Ayo Dosunmu train is leaving the station, so get on board!
Desmond Bane returns to Texas and shows out with a career high 29 points, the Grizzlies go wire to wire for the 4th straight game. Final Score Grizzlies 97 – Mavs 90. David and Isaac are postgame.
Before this depressing Kings season began, we brought some great guests on the show to preview what lied ahead. Now, just past the quarter mark of the 2021 NBA year, we recruit some new people to help us vent about this weird team.
Joining us for our Friday show are: the legend John Bull, who was a part of our original roundtable discussion, Mirann Tsumura (Kings Herald writer and “dramatic” Kings fan), and Trevor Cancilla (a Kings diehard whose Twitter feed is filled with terrific sports takes).
We banter about the current state of this team, Alvin Gentry, where we think this season is going, and who we’d love to see Monte McNair acquire via trade. Then, as is custom, we end with “Jill’s Water Cooler.”
The guys discuss James Harden getting HOT, Nets owning New York (BING BONG), Joe Harris ankle surgery and Nic Claxton being back. Plus, Griffin versus Millsap and predictions for Wolves and Bulls games!
Brad is back to talk Trae Young’s All Star Candidacy, Hawks surge back to a playoff spot, and a must anticipated matchup vs. Philly on Friday. Hawks are quietly sending a message and Brad will relay it to you.
No LeBron James, no problem for the Lakers? If only it was that easy. Despite missing the King (protocols) for the indefinite future, the Lakers look poised to lean on Anthony Davis in order to try and turn the corner.
Ethan and JC are back to discuss the emergence of Malik Monk, the absurdity of the emphasis on Trevor Ariza, and the importance of AD as a vocal leader. The fellas also touch on DJ, Rondo, and more on this go-around of the Ethos Lakers podcast.
At 8-14 and coming off two straight ass-kickings, we’ve tired ourselves of talking about this putrid team. Instead, we focus (most) our attention on hyping up a Kings team that does care: the STOCKTON Kings.
We divulge into the G-League world, and close by reviewing some of our preseason “sleeper” squads. Unsurprisingly, Jill’s team’s are killing it; Sam regrets ever thinking the Magic could be good.
Tune in Friday for our next (and much needed) fan roundtable discussion!
The Grizzlies pull off back to back wins without star guard Ja Morant. Final Score Grizzlies 98 – Raptors 91. Jaren explodes for 25 points, 4 threes and 5 blocks to lead the Grizz to victory. David and Isaac are postgame.
The New Orleans Pelicans enter the STAPLES Center and defeat the Clippers 123-104 behind a career night for JV and an efficient 27 points from BI. Lyle delivers the post-game celebrations.
