1:00

I introduce my special guest SwaggyPLino! I also go over a summary of what we will go over on the show

2:56

Swaggy and I discuss how players mindsets were different in the 80s and 90s.... how more players stuck around instead of trying to build superteams or join other stars. I give a list of names from the past that were loyal and didn't jump ship, while also giving numerous examples from the last decade plus of players taking the easy road

21:44

We discuss the top 200 shot destinations in the NBA today compared to what they were in 01-02, including the absence of almost any mid range or post play today. We talk about why that has hurt the game, and why it is easier for defenses to plan for.

31:33

We discuss inflated salaries in todays game, and compare it to salaries of players in 90-91. We talk about how this has hurt the game on many levels.

37:18

I close the show, thank you for tuning in!
