Episode 115 - Skill Over Hustle / On this episode weâre going all in on the true love of skill in the game of basketball. Watching the postseason, skill is display at the highest level. We recognize the best players in the world going at each other with it all on the line. The deciding factor? Supreme skill. As Candice Parker pointed out after the Hawks knocked off the Knicks, when unleashed, skill wins every time. - For Gil, thatâs what itâs all about. As we saw with the Lakers coming up short, it wasnât just about injury, execution or defense, they didnât have enough skill to succeed. Over in Portland, itâs one thing to have a dominant, ultra-skilled player, but if not surrounded by a skilled enough roster, you donât have a chance. We all see different things when we watch and study the game, but an examination of winning basketball points out one common thread, youâre not winning without skill. - Presented by: Athletic Greens - THE NO CHILL PODCAST - A No Chill Production - EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS: Tim Livingston, Gilbert Arenas, Mike Botticello - HOSTED BY: GILBERT ARENAS and MIKE BOTTICELLO - Videography/Editor: Steven Rhys Foster - Director: Steven Rhys Foster - Sound: Alfonso Cano - Talent Coordinator: Thomas Scott - Production Assistant: Ethan Zakarin - Learn more about your ad choices.

Lakers Panic? Ainge Out, Double OT Dame, Fans Suck and Playoff MVP / In this week's Point of Contention Ethan Strauss and Marcus Thompson debate. Hosted by Zach Harper. - Take 1: Oh boy the drama that is unfolding out west between the Lakers and Suns, that is about to put a serious crimp in LeBronâs Space Jam 2 debut next month. - Take 2: Danny Ainge has been at the helm for 18 years with his greatest achievement being the 2008 NBA title with Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen and Paul Pierce. Since then Ainge accumulated a ton of young talent, draft picks and was notoriously always on the brink of making that big trade. But Ainge could not turn the corner, or even close for that matter. - Take 3: The legend of Damian Lillard, yet again, grew on Tuesday night as he orchestrated a game for the ages, scoring 55 points and an NBA playoff-record 12 3-pointers as the Trail Blazers lost to the Nuggets. Lost? - Take 4: The NBA issued an 11-point memo which states clearly, among other things, that alcoholic beverages will still be permitted but encourages fans to tell on guests for âinappropriate behaviorâ to the nearest usher, security guard, or guest services staff member. - Take 5: Fellas, itâs been too long without some Awards talk, and even though there is not technically an award for Playoff MVP, weâre doing it anyway.
