Asking life's tough questions to one of the greatest collections of basketball wisdom ever assembled. Basketball stars share how basketball taught them about life.
The greatest basketball players in the world sit down and tell us what happens when you start getting paid the big bucks. NBA stars Allen Iverson, Chris Bosh, Lamar Odom and others sit down to tell us about the dangers of “new” money.
In episode 102 of Basketball (And Other Things), Chris Bosh, Allen Iverson, Dr. J, Quavo, Jemele Hill and more discuss how certain NBA players like Michael Jordan, Lebron James, and Dennis Rodman have transcended basketball by disrupting the system.
Negotiating your worth, being treated poorly, getting fired. These are the realities in any job, but in the NBA you’ve got millions of dollars on the line.
You think it’s easy to hit a free throw in front of 20,000 screaming fans? In episode 104 we explore how the mental game is crucial to one’s success.
In episode 105, Allen Iverson, De’Aaron Fox, Stephen A. Smith and others discuss what happens when hype turns into hate. Cause when you’re in the public eye, if you can’t fade the noise, you’re never gonna make it.
There are no shortcuts to success. It’s a 24/7 grind and the cost you’ll pay is steep. But to be the best at something, something’s gotta give.
It’s all about flashing the bling, and these days, no one does it better then NBA athletes. Bugatti, Rolex and Gucci are just a taste of the life that you get when you’re a superstar.
You always dreamed of being a high school phenom, then college star, then first round pick in the NBA. But when you’re actually on that path, it’s never like the movie in your head.
The passion to do whatever it takes to win is more than just an advantage. It’s what separates the winners from the losers.
Hip-hop culture’s journey to dominate the NBA and the world.
People think that when you’re on the top, everything in life is the easier…but in reality, the opposite is true. Like Biggie Smalls rapped, “Mo money, mo problems…”
Basketball is way of life… but life can be just like basketball too.
