About this listen

 This week’s episode is a must-listen as our brother from another mother Jabari Davis joins the show as guest co-host, and we waste no time diving into everything happening around the NBA. We kick things off with our thoughts on NBA Rivals Week, asking the big question: Was it a Heated Rivalry… or just Lukewarm Competition? Did the matchups deliver real intensity, or was the hype louder than the product? From there, we break down the latest league headlines, including:
  • Giannis Antetokounmpo expected to miss 4–6 weeks and what that means for Milwaukee moving forward
  • Derrick Rose being honored in Chicago as the Bulls retire his jersey — reflecting on his legacy and impact on the city
  • A surprising shift during NBA All-Star Weekend, as we discuss why the TNT crew didn’t reveal the All-Star starters like they traditionally do
Then we roll into our signature segment, Say Less, where we take notable NBA soundbites and translate what’s really being said:
  • LeBron James addresses recent stories and rumored comments involving Jeanie Buss and his standing as a Laker
  • Warriors GM Mike Dunleavy Jr. responds to Jonathan Kuminga’s trade demand
  • Mike Brown shares his thoughts on the New York Knicks’ recent struggles
  • And we close with Rich Paul, everyone’s favorite agent, weighing in on his former client Ben Simmons
Insightful, opinionated, and full of league-wide context — this episode delivers real hoops talk with no filler.
