For the Chicago fire sale that could happen soon, where would you want those players to go for them to be optimized? Demar, Zach, Vuc, AC, and whoever else

One of the few decent analysts left at ESPN!

Oh nice... I'll be at work but could someone ask how we get more love from the media for small markets in the NBA please?

everytime Tim is on JJ reddicks pod cast it sets a record for the most boring piece of content of all time. It's worse then sports agents going on podcasts.

Tim is just awesome, the way he breaks down basketball is really eye opening

What coach did you wish you played for during your career?

[–] AndoArugula@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Happy for Mares, he's a great host and he deserves the attention

Legs! As an Omaha native (literally Native American), I was wondering what you thought of the city while you were here playing for the Racers? You were awesome btw.

Also, what was it like coming up from the bottom? Do you see anyone playing today (maybe in the G League) who could do what you did? And how good did it feel to finally land that first NBA contract?

Mares is awesome

Did I already miss the AMA thread?

Legs is the man, easily one of the best dudes working at espn, always great to hear him breakdown some ball.

Why are Bronssexuals so stupid and so threatened by MJ's excellence even 20 some odd years after he last played for the Bulls? Do they know deep down that Lebronze cannot match MJ's greatness?

And also, what do you think the Wizards should do with WUJ since they're tanking? His coaching wasn't working even with Kristap Porzingis, Beal and Kuzma. Would you advocate for Ted Leonsis to sell the Wizards since it seems like the franchise has gone nowhere and we're in another rebuild phase?

Top notch podcast. Lots to learn from both guys.

Is touch around the rim something you develop or something you are born with? And is touch just shooting the ball as softly as you can off your fingertips?

[–] DefiniteSauce12@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Who is someone out of the league currently that should be on a roster now? Any player, ex star or not

[–] DefiniteSauce12@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

How interesting would it be for non shooting fouls, you get to decide whether you get an extra 6 seconds on your shot clock or if the opposing team loses 6 seconds on their next possession?

[–] DefiniteSauce12@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Do too many guys get away with carries? I feel like Garland, Mitchell, Lamelo, and other guards and winds get away with it and it is literally impossible to guard at times

When will see you on lebatard show? Miss your appearances

[–] myfatbasketballs@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Hey Tim, do you think you could shoot 50% from 3 again if you got the volume opportunities that today's game warrants/values?

[–] Vince_-@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Do you talk to NBA front office executives like GMs or President of Bball Operations? Can you share anything they've been talking about recently?

u/Nyhrox what gives? Y'all never posted the AMA thread, and apparently won't respond to the hosts.

[–] Nyhrox@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Hey

There was a bit up of a mix up. Tim and co posted the AMA thread to his user subreddit rather than r/nba. We prefer to have the AMA thread posted by the host and we just announce the AMA, we certainly help the hosts throughout the process with any assistance they need.

I live in a non-US timezone, so I personally would not be around to answer the modmails at certain times, but the mod team were constantly in conversation with the hosts and have already rescheduled the AMA. We are just waiting on confirmations.
