  1. Funny episode John lowkey was cooking in the beginning then got rolled up into a tortilla and put on stove towards the end but BK and John going against each other has been pure comedy keep it going fellas 🤣

    You got cooked tonight once again as usual John last episode it was a good point that you made about what can we possible do with Ben Simmons it’s true not much rn we can do with him

    Would you be cool with a buyout situation?

  2. @BKNYHOOPS dreamers pro just hates lebron but idk if he’s actually doing that specific thing for entertainment cause he’s actually being fr about that he went on someone else show and talked about it and said

    he doesn’t respect Lebron James at all but it’s crazy how he respect guys like Paul George, Kawhi Leonard but them guys miss a lot of games he even said those players are better than Lebron which is even crazier

    I don’t think Dreamerspro would join he only debates higher top tier type of pod cast ppl he don’t keep the same energy for certain players

  3. @BKNYHOOPS a lot of what the locked on guys say is biased now me personally I think your right they don’t break the game down how they should be doing they see the game like how ESPN, Undisputed shows like that and you mentioned bill Simmons too which is facts they don’t keep it 100 when it comes to the players on the roster

    But Doug has actually been keeping it real a little bit more lately Adam he the more nice type and don’t get how basketball criticism works

  4. @BKNYHOOPS I don’t think you wrong about what you said with Ben Simmons it’s just the people who you allow up on the show never listens and are very biased, disrespectful and hate Ben Simmons they don’t ever really break down what he does to help the team it’s crazy how when he says “yah just point out the negative” but he pointed out all the negative flaws in Ben Simmons, Mikal Bridges, CJ, DFS

    so it’s a weird dynamic how they break down the game they aren’t consistent they don’t keep the same energy or have the same takes when in situations when they only want to agree with certain ppl on the show they start to back track or when they are wrong but don’t want to admit when they are wrong

    BKNYHOOPS I’ve been a head shrink for 20 years now mostly I deal with sports players mostly basketball players, I’ve gotten movie stars before but most I deal with are sports players

    when I tell you it’s a mental block with Ben Simmons it’s also the confidence DJ, John, and others pointed this out when Philly fans criticized him he took it to heart and his mindset changed he listened to it too much and he changed I’ve seen it with a lot of players

    so what Ben needs is either a high level type of guy that will mentor him, block out the noise and just ball out, or I know this is a lot of people’s least favorite but he should consider retirement

  5. Quite the action packed podcast tonight 😮😁…..

    Again Ben Simmons is not the end all be all for point guards in this league. Yes he has the wingspan height and playmaking abilities as far as throwing out assists and the occasional rebounding goes. But outside of that Ben Simmons is unreliable especially when it comes to creating his own offense 😮… The fact Ben has been in the league for almost a decade and hasn't learned how to create a jump shot, a three point shot or have a respectable frew throw percentage is wild 😮…. If Ben Simmons is "still learning" how to play basketball that reason alone besides his lengthy back injury situation is more than enough for Brooklyn to not even consider resigning Ben after his contract ends….

    Now to be fair let's say Ben Simmons somehow can remain healthy, average a lot of assists and rebounds and have some type of bounce back, Brooklyn should try to trade him as soon as possible so they can finally close this chapter of Ben Simmons and move forward without the unnecessary drama 😮😅…..

  6. Cooper Flagg being compared to Jayson Tatum is a big comparison but Cooper has the similar frame and offensive spurts to potentially be on that level one day 🔥. Now his defensive skills are probably his strongest asset and an Aaron Gordon comparison is probably fairer right now and for Cooper it's all about putting it together during this college year to show he can be very impactful on both sides of the ball and make a strong case on why he should be the number one pick 🔥….

  7. @Giving You Sports From My View Again dude you dont like Gary's take about Lonzo but single me out is hilarious 😮😂…. Ben hasn't played a full season in 5 years dude 😂…. Again if you didn't agree you could have come onto the panel 😁…..
