  • The 2026 Autopsy Reports: Bucks and Bulls
    Apr 30 2026
    This week, we put the spotlight on two Eastern Conference teams that fell short of expectations — the Milwaukee Bucks and Chicago Bulls.

    The Bucks’ season unraveled in the most unexpected ways. A struggling defense, inconsistent guard play, and lack of depth led to a disappointing finish outside the playoff picture. While there were flashes from emerging contributors, the overall roster construction raised serious questions about the team’s direction moving forward.

    Meanwhile, the Bulls leaned into a youth movement, with Josh Giddey stepping into a lead playmaking role and rookie Matas Buzelis showing promise as a two-way cornerstone. However, defensive issues and roster instability ultimately defined their season, resulting in another year on the outside looking in.We break down what went wrong, who stepped up, and what both franchises must address as they head into a pivotal offseason.

  • Inside the Jail Blazers: A missed dynasty that almost broke the Lakers with Sascha Gardner
    Apr 15 2026
    In this episode, we sit down with documentary filmmaker Sascha Gardner, one of the creative minds behind Netflix’s acclaimed Untold series. Known for uncovering the deeper stories behind some of sports’ most misunderstood moments, Gardner joins us to discuss his latest project, Untold: Jail Blazers.

    We dive into the story of the early 2000s Portland Trail Blazers—an immensely talented team whose legacy became overshadowed by controversy and the infamous “Jail Blazers” label. Gardner breaks down the inspiration behind the film, the untold perspectives from players and insiders, and how media narratives helped shape the team’s public image. This conversation goes beyond basketball, exploring themes of identity, perception, and the fine line between reputation and reality.
