Relatively Speaking Podcast

After talking about the Cleveland Cavaliers surprisingly yet unsurprisingly taking over the Eastern Conference last week, the Relatively Speaking Podcast went back to the top of the West this week, to discuss a couple of teams in Texas who are giving the Golden State Warriors a run for their money.

Helping Jared make sense out of the surging Houston Rockets, and the early success of a Kawhi-less San Antonio Spurs team is Kelly Scaletta, whose writing can be found at Fanrag Sports, Bleacher Report, Dime Uproxx and BBall Breakdown

If you've been keeping up with the NBA, and the Relatively Speaking Podcast for that matter, you know there are few topics, teams and players more worthy of discussion at the moment than the Cleveland Cavaliers and LeBron James.

 

After a 5-7 start, the Cavs have reeled off 13 wins in their last 14 games, and are back near the top of the Eastern Conference.

 

Joining Jared to discuss the Cavs righting the ship, LeBron having a career-year in his 15th season in the league, unsung heroes, and more is Carter Rodriguez. Carter writes for SB Nation Cav's blog Fear the Sword, and he's the co-host of The Chase Down podcast with Justin Rowan

For Jeff Green stanning, great Cavs/NBA takes and the occasional Twitter beef with less than favorable former sports reporters turned political voices, make sure you're following Carter at @Carter_Shade.

After taking a Thanksgiving week break, the Relatively Speaking Podcast has returned, with a very special guest.

Joining Jared this week is the first person he ever recorded a podcast with, Varoon Bose, who's a social media specialist with a focus on the NBA for Bleacher Report.

Jared and Varoon go back several years, having written and podcasted at the now defunct Bro Jackson together, and they reunited to discuss Varoon's hometown team the Portland Trail Blazers and other general NBA current events. 

The show takes a look at the Blazers' surprisingly good defense, if their hot start has been smoke and mirrors, and some of the team's unsung heroes. 

You can get great NBA content, iffy food takes, and hilarious memes and GIFS by following Varoon on Twitter at @VaroonBose.

The Boston Celtics are the hottest team in the NBA, and the Relatively Speaking Podcast had on one of their biggest followers to discuss what's going right so far. If you're on Twitter you probably know him as Snottie Drippen, but James Holas is an incredibly talented writer who eats, sleeps and breathes the NBA.

Before getting into the Celtics, Jared and James talk about the Oklahoma City Thunder's slow start, and if the pieces all fit together. They also discussed OKC's elite defense, and if it's for real.

You can find James' writing at BBallBreakdown and Real Ball Insiders, and check out his NBA podcast The B.O.D. Pod on All Mighty Baller Radio. If you aren't already, make sure you follow him on Twitter as the infamous @SnottieDrippen.

We had a pretty big trade in the NBA this week, as the Eric Bledsoe saga came to an end, with the 28 year old guard being traded to the Milwaukee Bucks for Greg Monroe's expiring contract and a first round pick. 

To help Jared make sense of the trade, as well as the status of a topsy turvy Eastern Conference is Bucks' writer and podcaster extraordinaire Ti Windisch!

After rapid fire questions, Jared and Ti open up the show discussing why the Bucks made the trade, and how it could help propel them to the top of the East. 

You can find Ti's writing at The Step Back and FanSided's Behind the Buck Pass, and check out his NBA podcast Timeout with Ti. Keep up with Ti on Twitter @TiWindisch.
