The #NBA Preseason is set to tip off on September 30th and the Basketbuddies are reunited for Episode 30 of the Vanslam Vancouver's only NBA Podcast, to our knowledge, here on the Area51 Sports Network. Joshua, Sean, and Bowman look into the Donavon Mitchell trade to the Cleveland Cavaliers and what that will do to the landscape in the Eastern Conference if anything for the Toronto Raptors and Philadelphia 76ers.
We also discuss the new leaked NBA City edition jerseys, what ones we like, and what ones we hate. Why can't the NBA continue to use the good ones? Why do they have to come out with terrible ones year after year? We talk about the Celtics GM's comments about his team being overrated and briefly dive into the Doc Rivers social media scandal.
We also randomly rip the CFL, Talk about why sports are so amazing in October in regards to the NBA season starting, give Trae Young his dues, talk about the making of podcasts, answer some of your questions from Twitter, and a whole lot more.

March 07, 2022 Episode 26 - The Nose Job
The VanSlam podcast is back as Joshua is joined by Sean and Bowman to talk about what's happening with our favorite teams, all around the #NBA and maybe bash a couple of players or two (Trae Young*). Of course, there are the normal nonbasketball shenanigans as we test out our moans, talk some Batman (Don't worry no spoilers), judge Lebron James parenting in the Space Jam movie, and a whole lot more.

First off we discuss what is happening with the Toronto Raptors and #WeThe North. After back-to-back wins against the Brooklyn Nets, they were once again defeated at the hands of their former coach Dwayne Casey and the Detriot Pistons. Another loss to the lowly Orlando Magic and is a playoff series the bar for this team?

Then we go over the Process and what's happening with the Philadelphia 76ers and their new addition. Bowman has asked all slander be scrubbed from past episodes as the fit has been amazing and Philly continues to rise up the Eastern Conference standings. We discuss the impact Harden has had on Joel Embiid and youngster Tyrese Maxey and the non-impact he has had on Tobias Harris.

Then we discuss if JA Morant should be in the MVP conversation and why there should be a "Most Exciting Player" award. The MVP discussion continues between Embiid and Nikola Jokic and why if one of us ever disappears you should look to the brothers. We finish off trashing whatever the Lakers are trying to do and welcoming back Zion Williamson to the New Orleans Cassowary.

The Vanslam is geared up for #NBAAllStar weekend! Okay not really because it is absolute garbage but Joshua, Sean, and Bowman break down the Rising stars game and how Scottie Barnes and Tyrese Maxey became best friends. Does the Slam Dunk contest even excite people anymore? We also talk about improvements that the NBA can make to the All-Star Game to improve the festivities, Where are the Mascots and Trampoloines!

Then we look at the Philadelphia 76ers season at the break and what the F*&% Doc Rivers is doing with his bench. Will James Harden be able to provide that balance for the 76ers?? Then we look at the Toronto Raptors and what they plan to do for the season. Are they going to hope for a play in-game, they traded their first pick for Thad Young but aren't close to contending. What is happening for #WeThe North!

Then we discuss the rest of the #NBA and answer your questions from Twitter!

It's an NBA Trade Deadline day for the Vanslam Podcast, Vancouver only NBA Podcast to our knowledge.

An impressive 8 game win streak and Josh and Sean might be actually looking at the playoffs now. We look at some of the other #NBA Trades that caught our interest and what is happening in Portland.
We get into a bit of shenanigan after 3 weeks of solid Basketball talk and take things a bit off the rails before we answer your one question from Twitter. Thanks Adam!

February 05, 2022 Episode 22 - The Library
The VanSlam is back this week to chat about the serging #WeTheNorth and their 5 game winning streak. The Philadelphia 76ers were on a streak before a couple of tough losses to the Wizards and the Mavericks. The Eastern Conference is super tight and the Brooklyn Nets are falling. Could we see a trade for James Harden and Ben Simmons?
Fred VanVleet was named an NBA All-Star Reserve and we talk about the rest of the all-stars for the 2022 festivities. Then we get into the Rising stars game and how it could be the pinnacle of the NBA All-Star Weekend in the future. Could the NBA benefit from pushing younger players?
And then we answer your questions from Twitter about changing rules to the NBA and the Winter Olympics. Can the NBA call the rules? Fewer timeouts and more trampolines.

January 30, 2022 Episode 21 - The Dog
The VanSlam Podcast is back, Vancouver's only #NBA Podcast to our knowledge, on the Area 51 Sports Network. Joshua, Sean, and Bowman get caught up with #WeTheNorth and the up and down season they are having. What is their identity? Is a middle-of-the-pack team okay considering that is what we predicted before the season started? Then we talk about the 111-105 loss to the Chicago Bulls and DeMar Derozan. What is his legacy with the Toronto Raptors? The guys worry his legacy might be nothing more than a trade chip.
Then Bowman goes off on a tangent on why Joel Embiid from the Philadelphia 76ers is the MVP and has shown why he doesn't need Ben Simmons. Also, Ben Simmons trade talk as we look around the NBA and discuss if James Harden or Russell Westbrooke could change teams.
We finish off our mid-season awards, sorry Trey Young. Before going over the #NBAAllStarGame Starters. We get to a question from... Instagram and much more!
