The conversation regarding the Mavericks on the podcast are limited to Ownership, Head of Basketball Operations, Coach and players. We don’t know if as the news unfolds if it will changed the viewed expressed on this episode. We will address that if and when appropriate. The Hawks have gotten good rookie campaigns from their drafted rookies John Collins and Tyler Dorsey. What else is developing with the team. Is Dennis Schroder the point guard of the future? The Mavericks have a significantly worse record than their point differential and net rating would suggest. What’s going on with that? Also, are they invested in Yogi beyond this season? The Bulls got harshly criticized this past offseason. What are the chances they actually might have landed the best player in the 2017 NBA draft? The Kings have been the usual mess for the better part of their season. But they’ve not been so bad as of recent. What to we make of their young players in the context of this roster and this season? Also, special appearances from Alex Bergman, Nate Ramos and Ryan Kietly who talk with Glen about what it’s like to play on a team coached by Greg.

Full Court Press NBA Podcast Episode 48 – Team Updates for Blazers, Nuggets, Pacers, Hawks / We continue our in-season analysis. How have the Blazers made themselves into a top 5 defense? We explain that it comes down to who is playing at the power forward and center positions and what they are asking their perimeter defenders to do. Have they sacrificed too much on offense to achieve what they are doing on defense? We discuss. The Nuggets are 29th in defensive rating but held the Warriors to 81 points in their matchup this week. What should we make of that? The Pacers might have won more games that some predicted they would on the entire season. We were optimistic about them prior to the season; but how sustainable is this? We still see roster construction issues for them at this point but a second round draft pick could solve a lot of that and it’s a player no one is talking about. Well, we talk about him on this episode. The Hawks are bad. But John Collins has been good. Taurean Prince is showing flashes of growth on offense. Dennis Schroder has been terrible on defense. Can a coach hold a team accountable on defense if their best offensive player is not putting in the effort on the defensive end of the court? We discuss.And who got our awards this week? Listen and find out. Greg cheated again but it’s not a terrible take.All of this and more.Follow us on Twitter: @willis_glen / @LawtonWillis / @presspodcastFollow us on FaceBook: @fullcourtpressnbaLearn more about your ad choices.

117 - MAILBAG: Knicks/Cavs/Clips/Wizards Trades, NBA's MIP, Paul George's Future / Y'all: Here's the mail. It never fails. It makes us wanna wag our tails. When it comes, we wanna wail MAAAAAIIIIIL! - In this week's Hardwood Knocks mailbag, our deep dive into listener questions leads to hypothetical trades for the New York Knicks, Los Angeles Clippers, Washington Wizards, Memphis Grizzlies, Portland Trail Blazers, Charlotte Hornets, Cleveland Cavaliers, Philadelphia 76ers, Oklahoma City Thunder and Atlanta Hawks. (Spoiler: Marc Gasol, DeAndre Jordan, Enes Kanter, Paul George, Carmelo Anthony, Marcin Gortat, Tyreke Evans and Tristan Thompson are all part of these imaginary swaps.) - Oh, but that's not all. - Andy and Dan talk about Avery Bradley's defensive reputation, and his on-off splits with the Detroit Pistons. And then they do the same for Marcus Smart of the Boston Celtics. They also break down the race for the NBA's Most Improved Player Award as well. Is it Kristaps Porzingis? Aaron Gordon? Victor Oladipo? Could it be—protracted gasp—Andre Drummond? - And by the way, if you find yourself wondering what's up with the Philadelphia 76ers, we spend ample time talking about them, too. - Is Ben Simmons on course to be one of the all-time greats? Is he already better than Joel Embiid? How do the Sixers fare when Embiid, Simmons and Robert Covington all play together? Will they ever trade Jahlil Okafor? And where should he go? Chicago? Atlanta? And, finally, will Markelle Fultz play at all this season? - All this, and so much more, is crammed into 73 legendary minutes of hoops talk. - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes.

FCP Ep. 41: Eastern Conference Updates and guest Nat Kitaw: Bucks Pistons Knicks Hawks Bulls Celtics Wizards Heat / We continue our in-season analysis. We share thoughts on the Eric Bledsoe trade and what might happen with Greg Monroe. We hand out our weekly awards and then get into team by team analysis. Why are the Bucks just a .500 team even though they have the most efficient offensive player in the league so far this season? What are the Pistons doing that is so fundamentally different from what they were doing last season? Are the Knicks doing sustainable things? Are the Hawks this bad? Are the Bulls doing right by Lauri Markannen? Is Brad Stephens into voodoo? What are the Wizards trying to be? Where did the Heat hunger go? Does it still exist? Then in our guest segment with Nat Kitaw we talk about positional gravity. Do big men that can shoot from three point range have more gravity than gaurds? The what to make of the Sixers roster decision as the date on which a Robert Covington renegotiation and extension can happen nears? All of this and more.

101 - Rebuild Isn't a Dirty Word: 2017-18 Atlanta Hawks Preview / Okay, this might shock some people, but...the Atlanta Hawks are rebuilding. - Is everyone okay? Lightning didn't strike anyone down because we used "Hawks" and "rebuilding" in the same sentence? A wild hyena didn't bore down upon you and ravage through your insides in search of protein? You're still breathing? Alive and well, or close to it, and everything? - Phew. Good. We were worried. Not because anything's wrong with rebuilding in the NBA, but because the Hawks, namely general manager Travis Schlenk, take issue to the term. And they shouldn't—not unless this opposition is designed to fool an Atlanta fanbase that may bail on a team failing to churn out second-round exits. - Anywho, the Hawks looks different. Dennis Schroder is their main guy. Yeah, him. They're also knee-deep in the developments of Taurean Prince, DeAndre' Bembry and, we think, John Collins—who NBA Math founder Adam Fromal has deemed the best player to come from Wake Forest. - Things get weird when looking at the rest of the Hawks' roster. They owe Kent Bazemore $54-plus million over the next threes, and they're brandishing a handful of not-too-young, not-too-old pieces in Dewayne Dedmon, Mike Muscala and Ersan Ilyasova. Rumor has it Miles Plumlee is on this team, too. - To figure out not only what the Hawks are trying to do, but how they'll play next season, Hardwood Knocks turns to Jeff Siegel (@jgsiegel) of Peachtree Hoops and The Step Back. He brings the nuance; we bring the questions. So let's roll. - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes. You can also find us on Stitcher and BlogTalkRadio.

FCP 036 – Batum Injury, Love starts at Center for Cavs, Hawks and Grizzlies updates and All-Star Forecasts with guest Jeff Siegel. / A couple of quick thoughts on news items: the awful news of the Nic Batum and how it could impact the season for the Charlotte Hornets. The we talk above the Cleveland Cavaliers decision to start Kevin Love at center and play Tristan Thompson off of the bench. The we dig into offseason updates for the Atlanta Hawks and the Memphis Grizzlies. Has the Hawks playoff run come to an end? Where does Dennis Schroder need to improve as to position him to become the player the Hawk need him to be? In Memphis they have adjusted the roster to reflect the modern game. We sing the praises of Mike Conley. Do they have enough 3-point shooting? Can the additions of Ben McLemore and Tyreke Evans help? Then our guest Jeff Siegel joins and tries to forecast the all-star rosters for the 2017-18 season.
