    Tbh if you like this then you will like their podcasts even more then they can say whatever they want instead of toning back what they say on national tv.

    Only upside to the tv part is the guests will be more high profile even though zach (get lowe) Lowe and Michelle are always on podcasts or have their own show on grantland

    So is there a schedule for this show or are they just going to make them when they can and spam the network and websites to let us know that a new one is coming?

    It's tired and annoying now. He only talks about Harden when it's an OKC topic never when it's about the Rockets...

    They like to talk about Washington being the main threat to lure Durant away but they are sleeping on Houston. A Durant - Harden - Howard trio would he one of the greatest ever.

    no love for the rockets as expected

    they spent 20 min talking about the thunder, but no mention of the rockets for 30 seconds unless it's about harden

    they've mentioned toronto, memphis, and gsw more...

    meh whatever

    Grantland basketball hour is incredibly good. Best b ball show on TV. Inside the NBA has been shaky ever since they brought in Shaq.

    Rockets doesn't exist really.

    Warriors, Blazers, Spurs, Clippers, and Grizzlies are the contenders.

    Lol. This ad. "Nickelback: the Party never stops!" Is this the same target demographic as an NBA show? I guess so. Sigh.

    Its exactly the same format of the BS report Simmons were doing and his occasional podcast with Rose together.

    Absolutely no new idea whatsoever.

    The show will get bored by most viewers very soon, could be canned before Simmons will drop a F bomb sooner than later.

    "Kobe working on art! This isn't Durant on HBO or Dwight with WHATEVER IT HE WAS DOING. Kobe is working on art."
