Matt's college roommate and college radio show co-host Austin Bailey joins the show to talk about what to expect from the Wizards overall after the All-Star break and what we hope to see from each one of the players. We also talk about the Wizards' pace and three-point shooting (or lack thereof), their overall offensive approach, and how being more aggressive on defense and gambling more might actually help them on both ends of the floor. Plus, we discuss Isaiah Todd vs Vernon Carey Jr. We also revive our favorite college segment, Fool of the Week, which is people in sports who caught our attention for the wrong reasons. We close out the show with this week's Prospect Profile of Baylor's Kendall Brown.
