Kevin Broom of Bullets Forever and the #SoWizards Podcast joins Matt Modderno for a live reaction podcast after the Wizards' 136-108 loss to the Atlanta Hawks. They give their thoughts on the game and what went wrong, assess the Wizards defensive deficiencies, and answer listener questions. They evaluated the play of Kyle Kuzma, Deni Avdija, Corey Kispert, Bilal Coulibaly, and Landry Shamet specifically. Kevin also provides some really good insight into how the Wizards' offensive compares to other teams around the league. Presented by betonline.ag!

Jahadi White and Matt Modderno recap the Wizards game against the Bucks, including the glimmers of improvement they saw from Jordan Poole and the high praise the Bucks' stars had for Bilal Coulibaly. They also discuss which players are most likely to get traded first, why the national media only seems to be focused on the negative things going on with the Wizards, and Matt sort of compares Bilal to Giannis. They close the show by saying what they're thankful for from each member of the team so far this season. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Presented by betonline.ag!

The Good: Bilal Coulibaly and everything about him

The Bad: the Wizards handling of Johnny Davis

The Ugly: the whole Jordan Poole situation

Plus: the Wizards defense and how much of it is effort related, could someone like Rajon Rondo make a good addition to the coaching staff, and a Capital City Go-Go update.

Jahadi White and Matt Modderno cover what went wrong in both the Heat and 76ers games, specifically the defensive breakdowns in both, and preview Wednesday's Hornets game. We give some love to Daniel Gafford despite Joel Embiid having a big night. Is Jordan Poole finally trending in the right direction? We weigh in on that too. Jahadi shares why he thinks Wes Unseld Jr. is here for at least the rest of this season and we both make a case for why Jerry Stackhouse would be the perfect fit for this group. We also cover the Wizards' "chaos" bench unit, which reserves deserve more minutes, who has been the Wizards most solid player so far, and which young center the Wizards should try to trade for.

"Can't Retire From This" is an upcoming multi-part documentary series highlighting women's basketball in the DMV, and the role the game plays in uplifting local youth. Melanie Page is a former DMV hooper turned filmmaker and she joins the podcast to help spread the word about the project. We cover her own basketball career and introduction to the game in the DMV, how the documentary came about, the target audience (everyone listening to this podcast!), and why she wanted to make it. We also discuss the prominent figures who were interviewed for the series and why it's so important to help tell their stories. There is an upcoming screening on Thursday, October 26 from 7:00 to 9:00 PM at Creative Suitland Arts Center that I hope you'll all consider attending.
