We needed some time to reflect after the World Cup and the USMNT drama, but we're back with a midseason hoops check-in.  Tune in for Illini and Badger basketball breakdowns, a debate of the best team in the NBA's western conference, and a review of our lovable average teams: the Bulls and Knicks. 

The Group Stage is nearly complete and we're back with another episode to examine the tournament thus far and look ahead to the knockout round.  With the help of a VIP guest, we break down USA's strengths and weaknesses, preview the round of 16 games, and put together a game plan for beating the Netherlands on Saturday. 

It may be November and basketball season, but we're switching to football in a special World Cup 2022 preview episode.  Rosters are named and players are on their way to Qatar, so we break down USA's roster:  Who was snubbed?  Who was a surprise selection?  Plus we go group-by-group and make our tournament picks. 

With the 2022-2023 NBA season upon us, M&M give you everything you need to know related to regular season standings and awards predictions.  Plus, listen to the end for our first ever mail bag question!

Better late than never! ... We're back by popular demand to chat about all the big NBA news as we ramp up for the new season.  Plus, we check-in on our beloved Illini and Badgers, and we close with the US Men's National Team, who are not exactly in top gear ahead of next month's World Cup. 

Listeners!! - Tune in to get up to speed on all the NBA offseason news, including Summer League updates, free agency deals and implications for the teams involved in this summer's major trades.  

After the Warriors' 4-2 victory in the Finals, we assess the key questions: What roster moves should Boston make to continue to contend? What are the legacies of the Warriors and Steph now that they've captured their fourth title in seven years? 

We then pivot to the 2022 draft and discuss where Johnny Davis, Kofi Cockburn, and the big-name prospects could (and should) fall. 

Listen and enjoy!
