Nelly J (Co-Host of the Good Rookies Podcast) joins me to talk about the abundance of injuries that NBA players have succumb to over the last 12 months and the impact it will have when crowning a new champion this postseason. We debate whether or not the NBA returned to play too soon after having the shortest offseason in the history of the 4 major North American sports. We discuss Naomi Osaka's recent withdrawal from the French Open citing her personal mental health and whether or not it will spark a meaningful change from sports organizations or just another cause swept under the rug. We dive into Nelly J's Mount Rushmore of athletes and how most of the GOAT's transcend the sport they take part in and inspire future generations of athletes. All of this plus much more!
