Worst series finale since Game of Thrones. Throwback hypotheticals with YP to end it.

Tyler's not here. Fun levels are beneath the floor. He's contemplating the next chapter of his life. We support whatever he decides. He's family. This is a family matter. Big Cat and KFC step up and we put all our shit on the table. I hope I handled this right.

Maybe that's a good thing. Maybe not. But maybe.

Skuba Ru Sada Baby joins the show from Miami to talk all things basketball, dancing, having 17 tapes ready to drop at a moment's notice, when Melo is the GOAT, Emoni Bates being the truth, and Reggie Jackson stinking out loud. Also, Sada tells a handful of basketball players to put down the mic and get back in the gym.

Most episodes wrap up and a title instantly comes to mind. It's quickly evident the most important or largest topic in which we covered. That...is not the case here today. Ichiro, Jalen Green, LaBradford Smith, Anthony Edwards, Billy James. It's quite a ride.

?????????? Christian McCaffrey - a RUNNING BACK - got a new contract. Neither of us were pleased. You have $15 to chef up the best episode of The Simpsons imaginable, who do you pick? The '96 Draft?

MVP, DPOY, ALL NBA, RANDOMLY DUMPING ON THE KNICKS FOR SOME REASON. YOU'RE WELCOME!

No. The answer is no.

What the hell are the Texans doing? Why don't more teams trade for FIRST TEAM ALL NFL talent? Is two first-round picks too many for Patty Mahomes? Also, y'all remember Game of Thrones? Because John Collins does.

BIG PICKS

MUSH IS A RAT COWARD BAG

THE GANG'S BACK TOGETHER, SUCKBAGS

It's not really a full half of a season. It's about a third. 2/5ths even. But you understand what we're getting at here. Winners, losers, things to look out for, things of that nature.

Except for the Dwyane Wade being a judge for any contest ever again. And no more free throws. Other than that, we're in there.

NO REGULAR BASKETRATS JUST ALL STAR JOHNSONS THREE POINT, SKILL, DUNK. MVP PICKS THANK YOU

The show is much longer than an hour. No other title would have made sense though. "The Jimmy Butler Revisionist History 2 hours and 50-some-odd minutes"? Rubbish. Utter rubbish.

This episode is about Kobe Bryant, his daughter, and everyone who lost their life in the tragic helicopter crash yesterday. May they all rest in peace.

BIG T BROKE HIS ANKLE SOMEHOW SUCKBAGS

No one likes sports any more. Rings don't get you into the Hall of Fame if your regular seasons were mid. Great regular seasons mean nothing if you don't have any rings. Sports? No thank you.

FRIDAY PICKS AND THE GANG IS HOT!!!

Rest in peace to the legend David Stern.

IT'S 2020, YA BAGS!

What were you doing on New Years Eve, 2009? We don't remember either, seeing as that was three lifetimes ago. We go over the best songs, movies, shows, and tweets of 2019 because no one else can apparently do this correctly. You're welcome.

Most improved, least improved, does Baker Mayfield stink, Gallagher would make a killing on Instagram right now, and other ramblings which may or may not be coherent, that's not for us to decide.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, YA BAGS, WE PICKED EVERY GAME ON THE SLATE AND ALSO TALKED ABOUT PANGEA FOR FAR TOO LONG.

TRILLY FUTURES IS FLYING SOLO

Many, and I do mean many, things went wrong.

This one's alright.

THE GANG'S BACK YA BAGS

The Simpsons turned 30 years old today. We look back with Smitty on the greatest show there ever was, and of course, give you picks.

Drafts... what are they. How do they work. Why are they so difficult. Are they even difficult. Nobody knows.

MONDAY PICKS AND WE ARE HOT!!!

Happy Friday, ya bags!

We also should have just played baseball

I accidentally uploaded the wrong file, ya bags!

Mush doesn't know how the bathroom works. At all.

WE TAUGHT MUSH HOW TO WASH HIS ASS, SUCKBAGS

Who would you choose? There's four hours for you to figure it out. Can Portland get it together in time to make a playoff run? Is football bad? DARRELL GREEN???

MUSH x WHISKERS = WINNERS

We talked about Bob Gibson for some reason before we got to the picks. You're welcome, ya bags.

We're sorry for screwing up Tuesday's episode. Please accept this as our apology.

Mush does not know the temperature in Texas. Not even a little bit.

We argued about Brazil on this episode, ya bags!

Figured out the record button, ya bags

Since Mush is now a permanent member of the Tape, I figured it would be best to look back at how it all got started with his very first appearance. That's all that happened. Nothing else. Nope. I didn't "royally fuck up the recording" or "completely screw the pooch" like some pundits have speculated. Never that.

Happy December ya bags!

We recorded this several days ago. What was said on this? Well,,, your guess is as good as anyone's. Enjoy. Or don't. It's a free country.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING YA BAGS!

PRE-PRE-THANKSGIVING PICKSTAPE.......WITH A SPECIAL GUEST

It's a fine holiday, but Tyler felt it could use some improving upon. I don't think anyone would ever disagree.

HAPPY MONDAY YA BAGS! IT'S GRIZZLIES-PACERS DAY!!!

HAPPY FRIDAY YA BAGS!

Random rant about the greatest passers to ever play the game. Ben Simmons hit his first career three. The Clippers debuted Kawhi and Paul George. Many things happened.

You're welcome ya bags

Things... may have got out of hand.

WHISKERS FLYING SOLO PROPTRAVAGANZA

James Harden should average 40. Unless he doesn't. But if he does. Boy oh boy would that be something.

HAPPY MONDAY, SUCKBAGS!

BIG TIME FRIDAY PICKSTAPE WITH THE BOYS LET'S GET THIS MONEY

Myles Garrett bonked Mason Rudolph over the head with his own helmet, Scoob. It was outrageous and luckily we were recording when it all went down live. But before all that madness went down... MELO IS BACK!!!

The 2-1 Boys are Back in Town. Ride with us, wont you?

Mush doubles down against the state of Indiana. What a bag.

Mush has a magic nun cain. He may never lose again.

Drake got the shit booed out of him. Somehow we didn't touch on that til late in the second hour. Before that? We talked about a lot. A whole lot. Mostly about Andrew Wiggins becoming the best player in the League and the Heat trying to get Dion Waiters the fuck outta here.

We're back suckbags! This time we're talkin' birds.

Eddie and Henry join us to give you winners, winners, and more winners on a revenge Friday.

I mean what a title for this podcast. If you don't click on that you're a bad person who hates fun. Also we fixed the NFL once and for all in a wild turn of events no one could have possibly seen coming. You're welcome.

MUSH. WHISKERS. BIG EV. THE MICK MAN. THIRTY MINUTES. WINNERS. BOOM.

THE BOYS ARE BACK

MICK MAN OUT, BRANDON F WALKER IN #PICKSTAPEWALKSTHELINE

And that's no hat. Also, would Lamar go #1 overall in a redraft of last year's quarterbacks? It,,, hard to say.

THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN

THE UNDEFEATED BOYS IN THE BUILDING TO CLOSE OUT THE WEEK WITH WINNERS, WINNERS, AND SOME MASTURBATION TALK.

Former ref and most notorious NBA figure of our lifetime Tim Donaghy joins the program to talk about the Malice At The Palace. Honestly, we talk about the Malice At The Palace. Bet you didn't know he was involved in that, too, did you. Because boy oh boy did I not know that. But before we get into that, TOWNS AND EMBIID FOUGHT, STEPH CURRY BROKE HIS HAND, WE'RE A WEEK INTO THE SEASON WTF IS HAPPENING.

Marty Mush returns. Big Eve joins. Brandon Fucking Walker is in the building. Tyler has his props. Coley's roaring to go 1-2.

Mush called in a pick. Brandon Walker uses fraudulent lines. Winners at the ready.

One of us is going 3-0 today. Who that is, well... it hard to say. Also, Dana pops in and admits to being an anti-vaxxer for seemingly no reason at all.

Thank you, Future. Also, Andrew Wiggins might be good? The Suns are good? The hell going on?

New week, new winners. You're welcome.

The 1-2 Man is now the 2-1 Legend. Mush stinks. Chris Bosh is the sharpest gambler in America. Tyler Prop Bags has more Prop Bags.

The legend Chris Bosh joins the program to talk about life, music, his upcoming book, a little bit of basketball and the internet.

Mush has a new magic money hole. We'll never lose again.

Yesterday, we didn't have winners. Today? Winners galore. You're welcome.

The first ever Gambling episode of Mickstape featuring Marty Mush giving you nothing but WINNERS, WINNERS, and MORE WINNERS Monday-Friday every week of the season. You're welcome.

That's right. We did it. With a special announcement no less.

Brandon Walker gives us 11 basketball takes. Turns out the guy from Mississippi is a big fan of white basketball players. Who knew? Then, Whiskers and the Mick Man break down the GM Survey.

Former rival turned good pal Matt Barnes returns to the program to talk about the debut of his new podcast with Stephen Jackson, the NBA figuring out what to do with China, Antonio Brown, the Clippers vs. the Lakers and the late, great Nipsey Hussle. Then, we talk about LeBron's terrible, no good quotes about China before getting to what really matters in this world: the BALLERS season finale.

First and foremost, we begin the show as every NBA team has in recent days - by pledging our undying allegiance to China. After that, Vine star @kbnoswag makes his world podcasting debut.

NBA Preseason is officially underway! Everyone in the NFL stinks out loud! Dave Chappelle is funny and also canceled! Markelle Fultz and Lonzo Ball might be fixed! But first... Pearl Jam.

Dave Chappelle, BALLERS, people being bad at Twitter, running backs, NBA preseason, a whole gang of other topics. It's 2 AM how on Earth do you expect me to remember what we discussed for three hours an hour ago?

Bulls "big" man Wendell Carter Jr. joins us ahead of his sophomore campaign to talk Atlanta vs. Chicago music, his tremendous chain, college players getting the bag, and the largest animal he could fight. Then, Whiskers and Mick talk about fighting cereal mascots and Grimace's dark, seedy past. Yeah, it's one of those episodes.

We went over ESPN's top 100 list. Surprisingly we disagreed. Also, Wendell Carter Jr. was supposed to be on this episode. The wrong files was sent. We talked about him being on this episode. He will be on Tuesday's episode. I know no one is reading this and I'm wasting my time explaining but...

Their list was bad. We fixed it. You're welcome.

The legend Brandon Fucking Walker joins the program to preview the highly anticipated Kentucky-Mississippi State game this Saturday. And by "highly anticipated" I mean you have to be high to anticipate such a piece of shit sporting event. After that... I mean this thing went off the rails QUICK fast.

...... (Kane is in the building)

Our apologies.

Without question he said this in our studio in close proximity to a microphone while we were recording this episode of Mickstape. No court of law could say that this isn't exactly what happened.

NYT Best Selling Author and LAST CHANCE U star Coach Jason Brown joins us to talk some good ol' fashion pigskin and life in general. Then, Senior NFL Analyst and SURF AND TURF co-host Steven Cheah previews the NFL's 100th season.

THE CHAMP IS HERE! Big Three Champion and MVP, 7-time All Star Iso Joe Johnson joins the program to discuss everything including Goat Yoga, preparing for battle with Stephen Jackson, and the 5-11 Dallas Cowboys.

MVP Joe Johnson. Charles Oakley. Stak 5. Frank Nitty. Donte Greene. BIG THREE CHAMPIONSHIP EDITION.

Trill Withers & The Mick Man have arrived in LA and whew boy there are MANY statues here folks. Where are they putting the Kawhi? Well it hard to say, much like the takes on the new Dave Chappelle standup special... There's also the BIG3 Finals on Sunday and Trilly doesn't know how anyone could bet against Stephen Jackson here. Unless of course you have Iso (MVP) Joe on your team? Stak5's teammate Franklin Session joins us off the top to talk about his viral career, basketball journey, cooking + getting cooked in The Drew, what it's been like playing on The Killer 3's, and plenty more... Follow our BIG3 Finals adventure on @MickstapeShow all weekend long pals

Monticello, Mississippi's finest Al Jefferson joins us for a walk down memory lane of he and Whisker's 2005-06 season in Boston while he gets ready for a Big 3 Championship with Iso Joe this season. Also, Caris gets a bag, Harden vs. Kidd and the most surprising sports stories in recent memory.Andrew Luck retired too.Edit: Re-uploaded and the audio should be fixed. If not, Settings -> General -> Accessibility - > Mono Audio -> ON

Two-time NBA Champion, International Man of Mystery, and Big 3 Star Josh Powell kicks off the show with stories on top of stories of his times traveling the world playing basketball. Then, Brandon Fucking Walker of "Unnecessary Roughness" fame joins the program to introduce himself to the world of Mickstape. Tough to say if he's a fan or not at this point in time.

Noted large human being and rebounding machine Reggie Evans kicks off the weekend of Big 3 coverage leading us into a sometimes contentious, often jovial talk with the White Mamba himself Brian Scalabrine. Then, Coley and Tyler talk about Albert Pujols. And also the rookie survey. And also "So Much Fun" gets brought up. Among other things.

The Mick Man & Trill Withers have landed in Dallas and have yet to meet The Bossman but their TAKES will arrive all the same. Talking planes, trains, yucky guys named Jay-Z, mean guys named Dana B, what they're doing in Big D with the Big 3, and plenty of other things that no longer rhyme with these words. Also joined by Kevin Huerter (2:31:00) aka NOT The Big Huert, Red Velvet or any nickname right now. We talk about possibilities for that, what it was like having his idol Dwyane Wade search him out after a game, his 1st impressions playing against LeBron, future for the Hawks and more. Tyler's Mush voice also makes an appearance. Enjoy pals

We read Stephen A. Smith's old tweets. It was a grand ol' time. We also went over Marty Mush's college baseball stats. Idk what else happened.

It's kinda all there right in the title. Rich Paul got 'em BIG shook.

Key Glock and Young Dolph bless us with their presence promoting their new joint mixtape "Dum & Dummer." Both men were exceptionally faded and offered us none of their greenery. Pretty rude all things considered but we appreciate them nevertheless. Also, there's three more hours of show after that. So,, you're welcome.

Your favorite Cousin is back in town with a new album on the way. We're also BTS now, thank you for the overwhelming support. We could not have done it without you - the fans.

The one and only Mr. Smush Parker joins the program to talk about his non-traditional journey to the NBA, the good work he's doing with the kids, the NBRPA, and the root of why he and Kobe clashed in LA. It was mostly, yanno, Kobe's dickheadishness but we'll let you hear it for yourself.

Close personal friend and noted ankle-breaker Joe Harris joins the program. And by "joins the program" I mean Coley cries about Kyrie Irving for the entirety of the conversation. Joe Harris laughs in his face, really gloating and bragging about the whole thing. Pretty rude given the circumstances. Tyler says multiple funny things, which is rare given his serious and stoic approach to the rest of our shows. Guess he's trying out something new these days.

Introducing the world's first ever "Choose your own adventure" style podcast where we will give you prompts after certain scenarios giving you options down different paths! Just follow the time codes and see how long or short this episode is for you! Wow! How zany and wacky! Not to mention meticulous and time consuming! Along with innovative and impressive! By the way, none of that is true. I just cannot completely remember what we talked about.

We're sorry.

Ice Cube and Nate Robinson are on this episode. Ice Cube says perhaps the most damning statement of his career to date. I'll never get over hearing it live for the first time. Stunning, really.

It definitely feels there's no question about it. Chris Paul has been banished to Oklahoma City. Meanwhile the Rockets are borderline nostalgia porn for 25-year old basketball fans. Just when you thought the offseason was over, they drag you back in. Oh yeah, the hilarious Mike Epps is also on this episode. You're welcome.

Kevin Durant is a Brooklyn Net who wears #7 now. Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are on the same team. Russell Westbrook might be traded any minute. The NBA is completely balanced for the first time...ever? Wha-what is happening?

KD and Kyrie are on the Nets. Jimmy Butler wants to play for El Heat. Al Horford is a Sixer. Kemba is a Celtic. Kawhi is...unsure if free agency has started. The Knicks remain a professional basketball franchise. AND MORE!

What it do, baybeeeee. Withers and the Mick Man back with some classic banter about free agency and how to take in these next hectic 48 hours. Buckle up, buckeroos.

Julian Edelman joins the program, which is cool as hell. Any time a 3x Super Bowl champion and MVP stops by to promote his upcoming Showtime documentary you're not going to have a bad time and that's just a fact. Oh yeah, Giannis won MVP. Free agency is on the horizon. Things are happening 'round the world. Frequently, some are arguing.

Kyle Guy and Phil Booth join us to talk about the pre-draft process, Game of Thrones, and cereal as a whole. But before all that, Reags helps us break down the entire NBA Draft. Winners, losers, things of that nature.

Anthony Davis: TRADED. Lonzo Ball: TRADED. NBA Draft: SOON AND VERY SOON.

In the real world the Toronto Raptors won an NBA Championship. The Larry O.B. is going back to its native land of Canada once and for all. As a popular Canadian once said: what a time, to be living! In the process of losing in 6 games, everyone on the Warriors is terribly injured to the point where they probably wont even play next season, making this the most vicious loss I can remember. Oh yeah, Michael Vick is on this show for about 45 minutes at the end there. Yes, that Michael Vick.

There will be one more game at Oracle. Kevin Durant will absolutely not play in it as his achilles snapped like a rubber band. Will the Raptors shoot 25% from three again? Is this finally Steph's time to claim Finals MVP? Does Klay Thompson realize Canada isn't a state but in fact an entirely separate country? Also, who is the favorite to land Anthony Davis after he reaffirmed his preferred trade destinations.

FOLKS this is real life history... Never before has there been a Cereal/Ballers/NBA podcast so bold, so thirsty for takes that it couldn't wait until after the game has ended to record. So behold the 1st LIVE episode from INSIDE the NBA Finals (in NBA Finals history) The Mick Man, Trill Withers, and their trusty microphone mule defied the odds in the last game ever at Oracle Arena,,, where the trash talk mildly improved but everything else? PU! Congrats to Toronto on their NBA Championship. 0:00... 55-53 Golden State with 7:59 to go in the 3rd quarter 27:21... 103-92 Toronto Raptors with 1:28 in the 4th quarter 50:56... 105-92 Final with reactions + 2019 thoughts on the ride back to San Francisco Thanks to The Boys (premiering July 26th on Amazon Prime) for getting us out here this week

Dinosaur stonks are rising up North and there's nothing anyone can do about it. Not Klay, not KD, and certainly not The Mick Man or Trill Withers... they've got a train home to catch. The Raptors are about to win the NBA championship and lose the best player in the league in the same week. Where Danny Green goes next we do not know. But the truth really is stranger than fiction. Paul Pierce and his poopy, poopy pants can attest to that friend. See you at Game 4 in Oracle tomorrow,,, and give a gander to The Boys July 26th on Amazon Prime

How did The Mick Man manage to do (1) airplane to the West Coast? Did Whiskers buy out San Francisco's entire broccoli stock in our 1st night here? Is Kevin Durant playing in these NBA Finals? Should he?? Is there a single soul left to play on the Warriors bench? Could Kawhi actually be the best trash talker in NBA history? Are we IN or OUT on Cam Reddish + RJ Barrett? Spoiler: PU Folks we're not sure about the answers to any of these questions but The Tape™ WILL find out LIVE from Games 3 + 4 at Oracle. All thanks to The Boys, premiering July 26th on Amazon Prime.

Is Kevin Durant important?? Well,, it hard to say.

We also talk about not getting your pants punched off.

Close personal friend Scott Rochelle joins the program to talk about the evergrowing Retired Players Association and his theory about Zion returning to Duke in order to avoid New Orleans. But before all that, Withers and the Mick Man break down the All NBA teams among other things.

It's like Game of Thrones but with Rone's name instead. Mostly because Rone is on the show and we also talk about Game of Thrones. And the Magic Johnson shit cause that was funny as hell.

MATT BARNES - 00:00-29:17 SAM DEKKER - 33:19-02:00:00 MARTY & DANA - 02:03:32-03:36:26 YOU'RE WELCOME.

Francis Ellis is taping his first ever comedy special this Friday at the Wilbur Theater in Boston. So we had him on to talk some general comedy in between Thrones and heavy NBA talk. Tyler is also in studio this week, so his mic was on and functional for the entirety of the program. Things are looking up.

NFL royalty Akbar Gbajabiamila joins the program to talk about an array of topics about life, the Lakers, his new book, and promote Red Nose Day. After that, Coley and Tyler bury the Celtics and cover the remaining good teams still playing the sport of basketball. Something else random and humorous was discussed at a point in time, I can't recall it in the here and now but you'll enjoy it that's my guarantee to you.

It hard to say

Richard Jefferson explains how he looks the same now as he did when he first came into the league hundreds of years ago. He said many other things too but that question had been on my mind for dozens of years now and needed answering posthaste.

First third of this 3-hour long saga is about Thrones. Second hour and a half is about the NBA playoffs. The third hour is about the NFL Draft. Get yourself a versatile podcast, kings and queens.

HEAVY NFL DRAFT TALK WITH THE MAN HIMSELF STEVEN CHEAH

Jared Dudley thought it was a good idea to talk shit to Ben Simmons. Turns out that might not have been a good idea. Has Game of Thrones lived up to the hype through two episodes? Is Derrick White the best player in the NBA or does that title still belong to Pascal "Spicy P" Siakam.

Who is the third best point guard in the Association? Did Coley and Tyler fix every Hall of Fame ever? Did KFC learn his lesson that there can only be one true king of the 3+ hour podcast? He fuckin' better have.

Oh boy.

The Queen of Milwaukee Mallory Edens returns to the Tape to preview the Bucks Championship run. After that, Whiskers and the Mick Man hand out awards, preview the Warriors Championship run, and talk about who will sit on the Iron Throne. Many people are calling this the pinnacle of podcasting.

During the recording of this particular we try to figure out where James Harden ranks among shooting guards all time. Dwyane Wade? There's an argument to be made. Kobe Bryant? People aren't going to like it but there's a case to be made. Michael Jordan? Not even a little bit. Turns out that guy was really, really good at basketball. People aren't going to like to read that nor hear it but it's true.

Coley comes up with the brilliant idea to abolish the draft for the NBA. Tyler was super against it. He was frothing at the mouth that it was even suggested. Ugly things were said by Tyler and only Tyler. He'd chain himself to the draft in order to protect it like environmentalists would with a great red oak tree. No matter how much you love anything, Tyler loves drafts that much more.

08.15.85-03.31.19

Jordan Bell a wild boy. Boston did a racism. Did the League conspire to get Luka and Kristaps on the same squad? Devin Booker: actually good. And dozens of other topics, mostly relating to basketball, discussed at length. Like, for instance, rank these players: Ben Simmons, De'Aaron Fox, Lauri Markkanen, Jayson Tatum, and Donovan Mitchell. Do it. You wont, you coward.

We have a new first ballot finesse Hall of Fame honoree, a proper send off for Gronk, some MVP debate, and Zion. Loads and loads of Zion.

Tournament Day 1 recap, Ja Morant is the truth, the Sixers finally ran the "beat the Celtics" play, and how difficult is it to project an 18-year old for the next decade?

Trilly Siskel did another cinema, leading us to break down the all time box office numbers. Somehow, we transitioned from that to the life and times of Benedict Arnold before talking about basketball. I don't know why but that's what happened.

The New York Football Giants are on a mission to prove once and for all that it cannot possibly be this hard to build an NFL team. Odell to the Browns, Earl Thomas to the Ravens, Golden Tate to the Giants for some unknown reason. Every signing is broken down and mocked before some light basketballing is discussed. And by basketballing of course we mean the Ibaka-Chriss fight and the Westbrook v. State of Utah ongoing saga.

At long last, THE FAT MAN Fat Lever joins the program. As does the pride of Wyoming Theo Ratliff at the top of the show thanks to our pals at the NBRPA. After that, me and Withers ramble on for several uninterrupted hours to discuss Antonio Brown, NFL free agency, and the National Basketball Association. There was something else random that came up that I, for the life of me, cannot remember. Oh well, you'll hear it.

The Buffalo Bills. Lmao. The world can be so cruel.

The #TrillyLegends Tour continues as the legend Sam Perkins joins us from (00:02:24-00:15:29) with some swell stories from his time in the NBA to life in the here and now. Then from (00:16:43-04:05:05), Whiskers and the Mick Man's incessant ramblings ranging from the Lakers to the Celtics to the Bucks to the NFL combine to Brody Stevens go on seemingly for a lifetime. Then the legend Dale Ellis joins us from (04:09:47-04:17:50) to tell Tyler why Tennessee is better than Kentucky and how tennis taught him his demeanor on the basketball court.

March is upon us, so we enlisted good pals Grammy nominated legend Nipsey Hussle and Madea Family Funeral/How To Get Away With Murder star Rome Flynn to join us by ringing in the new month. This is the extended version.

For some reason, Withers and Coley go down a rabbit hole of the Billboard charts over the years and boy howdy does it go off the rails quickly and in a hurry. From a basketball sense, Lauri and LaVine bludgeoned the Celtics to a pulp. And what the friggin' heck are the Pelicans supposed to do with Anthony Davis for the rest of the season? Then we get into interviews from NBRPA All-Star weekend with our actual pals Nancy & Scott and new pal Matt to kick off the #TrillyLegends Tour (02:47:45 - 03:23:07) ...Also #LIEBERMAN2020.

Featuring the incomparable Marty Mush, the LEGENDARY Charles Oakley, future legend DeAndre Ayton, and Boston Celtics fan Dave Portnoy. Talking about Zion Williamson mostly and previewing the second half of the NBA season. Many thanks to the NBRPA and Footlocker for hooking it up down at All-Star weekend.

Two return guests and three new pals join today's episode covering a wide arrange of topics ranging from Tyler lowballing Kareem's memorabilia, us teaching Joe "Killer J" Harris how to win the three point contest, and Quavo rating Tyler's freestyle a 0/10. Thanks to our pals at the NBRPA for making it ALL happen... much more to come.

Nothing really more to say on the matter. We're in Charlotte for the All Star Game and we met Bill Russell, the greatest human who ever graced the planet with his presence. 

NFL players are poors. NBA players, even bad ones, are not poors. At this, we laugh heartily. Celtics collapsed twice, Tyler laughs at Coley's pain. We debate Embiid vs. AD for first team All NBA. Will AD make any of the All NBA teams or will the writers hold his trade demand against him? It's tough to say at this point in time.

Giannis is the worst GM ever. Luckily for the Bucks he doesn't run their front office. The trade deadline has passed and we react to all the moves. The first ever All Star Draft aired and Silver's got some work to do. Then, Withers and the Mick Man watch the entire Lakers-Celtics game by accident. Yes, the entire game. Rajon Rondo murdered Coley in cold blood.

Elton Brand, under the cover of night, decided to upgrade his roster yet again by acquiring Tobias Harris. Pretty good. Other than that, Dana comes on to try and defend his wild antics over the past few months. And the Super Bowl was discussed in short at a point in time. Sorry it's a day late but you're also welcome cause if it dropped on time this Tobias news wouldn't be in the mix.

Kristaps Porzingis has been traded to the Mavericks. Why? We really have no idea. But the Knicks did a Knicks thing, so we discuss. There's also more Anthony Davis talk. Some Super Bowl insight. And a rant to start the show about how people are dumb.

Anthony Davis has officially requested a trade at the demand of LeBron James. As did Marquese Chriss at the demand of... Marquese Chriss.

Circle of Trust Member Billy Baron calls in from Belgrade, Serbia, to talk about life as a professional basketball player overseas and everything that entails. He also goes over his long, winding road throughout Division I college ball and growing up as a coach's son. Also, no one overseas gives a fuck about American Football. After all that, Tyler threatens John Feitelberg.

Baron Davis and wildly popular basketball player impersonator B(dot)A(dot) come through to talk West Coast basketball, idolizing Rucker Park, respecting legends, and their new TV show on Fuse called "WTF Baron Davis?" Then, it's several uninterrupted hours of Withers and the Mick Man breaking down the AFC and NFC Championship games and reacting to the baseball Hall of Fame inductees. Sorry it's a day late but no offense we're always on time.

FUTURE HENDRXX HAS FINALLY BLESSED US YET AGAIN! WE ARE NOT WORTHY! We talk our favorite Future projects ever, his best songs, and what we anticipated with his new album. Before all that we break down some NBA things of varying natures, Kyler Murray's NFL chances, the playoff matchups this weekend, and then, for the final hour, the hardest either of us have ever laughed throughout the entirety of the show's history. By far. Not even close.

Morning pals! Today known travel connoisseur, pop punk frontman, and roundball aficionado Adam Ferrone joins Trill Withers once again for some harmless audio mischief with topics including... What's next for Rone's beloved Birds? Where does Nick Foles end up and is he destined to unite with fellow horsemen John Elway in Denver? FOLKS,, Trilly wants New Orleans vs Kansas City. Kyler Murray is about to make a CORRECT decision,,, wow! Also why THE HELL are the Thunder retiring Nick Collison's jersey? Is Eric Maynor getting the call next? Would you trade Joel Embiid for Anthony Davis straight up? Does Carmelo exist solely in purgatory now? Plus the All-NBA 1st team halfway through the season so far...

Trilly Whiskers is joined by the one and only Adam Ferrone to talk about some real stinky stuff in this crazy cold world. 2nd returns for All-Star starters are in and DRose/DWade are STILL top 2 in voting. PU folks! Could Luka overtake LeBron and captain the West? What's going on with the chemistry problems on the 76ers? Did you know Adidas & Puma were founded by two VERY bad German brothers? Could Pascal Siakam actually have a bigger ceiling than Giannis? We discuss that and more after Rone proves the pencil IS mightier than the sword...

Jon Glaser (aka Councilman Jeremy Jamm) joins the program to talk about getting into comedy, attending Michigan, experiencing a terrible sports loss, being a genuinely nice human being but playing a dickhead on tv, and a million other things. Including talking about his new show on TruTV, "Jon Glaser Loves Gear." Season 2 premiers Wednesday, January 9th at 10:30 pm. But before all that, Derrick Rose said a thing, Hedo Turkoglu is apparently a terrible human being???, and Clemson beat Alabama to a PULP.

Comedy God Ron Funches joins the show to promote his new Comedy Central Special airing TONIGHT January 4th. We talk about many preposterous things ranging from wrestling entrances to fighting animals to Conan O'Brien and Eric Andre. Then, Whiskers and The Mick Man break down the NFL playoffs, converse about some NBA happenings, and become gay for Willie McGinest.

This is the episode where we give out awards and also talk about 21 Savages new album and LeBron's feud with the Jewish community and also some other stuff idk it was yesterday who can remember that far back in the past

Merry Christmas

The one and only Caron Butler calls in to discuss Christmas, his Mountain Dew addiction, the decline of Aaron Rodgers, his unique road to the NBA, his All Dark Alley Team, Kobe vs. Wade, and too many other gems to list. Also, Rone joins the beginning and end of the program to talk about the diamond industry and the gifts given to Jesus.

While discussing De'Aaron Fox (the best prospect from his Draft Class) and Luka Doncic (the best prospect from HIS draft class) and how they could have played together, the boys look back on the Rockets selecting Hakeem over MJ and come to a horrifying conclusion. Also, the Patriots stink.

4x Defensive Player of the Year and all around LEGEND Ben Wallace joins us courtesy of the Grand Rapids Drive. He brings us plenty of Rasheed stories, how ML Carr and the Celtics tried to play him as a shooting guard as a rookie, the impact Charles Oakley had on his life, how his Pistons would play against today's Warriors, and a million other things. Easily one of the best conversations ever had on this or any other podcast.

Today the Mickman and FC Aficionado Whiskers tackle:-Safety Gronk and what a debacle that was-Heisman Talk and how Josh "Good Josh" Allen was snubbed-Building around the Donc Man-No but seriously why the hell was Gronk playing safety

Romeo Miller joins the program to discuss a whole lotta basketball, growing up in a fish tank, the best celebrity hoopers, and how his lifelong friend DeMar DeRozan handled the trade from Toronto to San Antonio. But before all that, simply a preposterous conversation between Withers and the Mick Man.

Chicago Bears legend and professional ball puncher Charles "Peanut" Tillman joined the program to chop it up about a whole heap of things including the very true fact that he did NOT do steroids and would like for the vicious rumors that he started to cease immediately.

And he's an absolute delight. As is Adam Ferrone. Commonly referred to as "Rone." It's a good episode, you don't have to believe me but it's true. Check out our pal Tim on "No Activity"

...Or maybe Langston Galloway. It's hard to say.

Completely ignore your family to spend some time with ours. Closest personal pal Spencer Haywood and newest friend Corey Brewer spend the holiday with us, why wont you?

Withers and The Mick Man headed down to DC for the weekend to talk to some of Tyler's old teammates.

There isn't much else to say. Bow Wow aka Shad Moss aka Calvin Cambridge is on this episode. And he is electric.

And probably Ben Simmons, too.

Zion Williamson: Actually Good. R.J. Barrett: Also, actually good. Cam Reddish: Folks,,, Reags joins us to break down this college basketball season and to talk about Karl-Anthony Towns continued cowardice.

I simply could not bring myself to type it. Today the gang discusses,, Football: What is it? Kareem Hunt/Tyreek Hill vs. Alvin Kamara/Michael Thomas... Does Tetris have winners?? The Sex Man being hated by his teammates. Trading Kemba? Jimmy Butler only playing primetime games and not a soul will check him. Let's discuss.

D-Rose dropped a career high 50 and it was a very conflicting moment for NBA fans everywhere. What is the correct take on this? Buddy,,, you've come to the right place. Also, Dak Prescott sells his own cologne for some reason. We make fun of that for an extended period of time.

Scott Rochelle, President & CEO of the National Basketball Retired Players Association, joined The Tape to discuss: How he became the leader of the NBRPA, thoughts on the new G-League changes coming, partying in China with Dr. J/Caron Butler/Jim Jackson/Starbury, how Stephon Marbury has life figured out and if he'll ever return to the States, should Jimmy Butler beat up every other Timberwolf on the roster (Yes), why Scott's Chicago Bulls STINK, the NBA going International...and are we now the OFFICIAL podcast of the NBRPA?

Sorry the episode is late. The World Series got the Mick Man down real bad in terms of being able to sleep and function like a normal human being. During this episode we discover that actually all pitchers and quarterbacks in history actually stink.

LaVar was right. The GLeague is coming for the NCAA's neck. The 76ers are already dead. The Raptors are really fuckin' good. Basketball is fun and good and back. The Lakers stink. KAT took less shots than D-Rose. The Rockets? PU. The Pelicans are nasty - should they trade for Jimmy Butler? It's hard to say.

BASKETBALL IS BACK THE WARRIORS ARE GOING TO WIN 98 GAMES LEBRON IS A LAKER THE CELTICS ARE HEALTHY BEN SIMMONS IS A NON-THREE POINT SHOOTING COWARD KAWHI DOESN'T HATE HIS TEAM (yet) JIMMY BUTLER HATES HIS TEAM OUT LOUD BASKETBALL IS BACK

Season two comes to a wild finish after Jimmy Butler walked into Timberwolves practice, called everyone a bitch, and then told Rachel Nichols that he called everyone a bitch.

Is JR Smith finally outta here? Is Dana finally forgiven? Is it still illegal for ducks to be walking around without wearing long pants? So many questions, so little time.

Withers and the Mick Man break down the entire GM survey. And by break down I mean disagree with and mock. We also discuss Dana peeing his pants. Dana isn't on this episode we're just essentially talking behind his back.

It's some sort of rare medical condition where Alabama wide receivers drafted by the Atlanta Falcons in the first round just get near the goal line and start to vomit uncontrollably. Doctors say a cure is unlikely. Hold on I'm receiving a fax. It would appear that someone named Calvin Ridley is also a Falcons receiver, drafted out of Alabama, in the first round, and has caught six (6) touchdowns over the last three games???

That's just a fact. Heavy Elvis, Lil Wayne, Liberace, and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart talk on this episode. Yes you read that right. Before all that, Coley and Withers try and figure out the best League Pass teams for this upcoming season. Before all that, where is Jimmy Butler going to be traded? Do the Miami Heat make any sense whatsoever? But, before we can get into anything else... Dana makes his official statement.

Atlanta Hawks rookie Kevin Huerter stops by the program to talk about his New York Giants, expectations for his rookie season, and what it's like to be around Vince Carter, a man literally double his age. But before all that... it is officially NBA season, as Media Day kicks off around the League. LeBron has already given the Lakers a terrible nickname. The Warriors still have DeMarcus Cousins. And also, MC Hammer? Yeah that guy remains cool as hell. People don't talk about it enough. That ends today.

From Jimmy Butler all the way down to Dana "Hat Man" Bahrawy, betrayal is the hottest game in the streets to wrap up Summer 18. You do, in fact, hate to see it.

Tom Bro Dude, Forever.

This is a Dana episode. We rank his performance to his face in real time. There is a lot of lumberjack talk. There is little to no kangaroo talk. Sorry to disappoint.

Whiskers is in the flesh in the Big Windy talking some shooty hoops for your ear drums. We also made fun of all the NFL teams that lost.

Folks, it's a Friday. So you know what that means! Time to listen to exactly one (1) episode of Mickstape and then call 9-1-1. On this episode, Tyler proclaims that he could easily build an NFL contender from scratch as an expansion team. Coley agrees. Everyone agrees and swell times are aplenty for all. After that we go through all 32 teams' uniforms - both new and old - and roast/praise them appropriately. Also, remember that time Will Ferrell rapped Biggie as Robert Goulet on SNL? That was wild.

I guess you could say we're....back on our bullshit. No need to applaud. Bobby Portis and rookie Chandler Hutchison join the program to talk about their upcoming season, their offseason training, and random bits of life sprinkled throughout. Before that, Whiskers and Mick preview the 2018 NFL season. We'll also be back with another episode tomorrow. You're welcome.

Our pal Terry comes back from his last month of training to talk why he hasn't convinced Dez Bryant to sign with the Browns yet, his new GQ lifestyle, and what he's more comfortable with entering this season than years past. Then, former Denver Nuggets strength and conditioning legend Steve Hess joins us in studio to go over old Melo, Iverson, JR Smith, and...Popeye Jones stories.

This is an episode which features many thoughts from Dana. Also including, but not limited to, thoughts from Withers and the Mick Man as well.

Hey, what's up, hello. This episode is mixed properly, which feels like a strong start. We rank natural disasters in terms of scariest to least scary. Some heavy spider talk on this episode. Big time Young Thug episode also, as well. Not to mention Ben Simmons continues practicing shooting with his wrong hand for reasons we cannot understand. We also broke down which nationalities have the best names. And then, Matthew Stafford talk for reasons that should not exist but hey guess what they do.

Brace yourselves. Today, our protagonists' discuss:"Slime Language"The universal appeal of Dave and also BusterEvery NFL running back everSome 'Ballers" (NO SPOILERS COLEY HASN'T SEEN IT YET)Running back talkGetting to the bottom of this "Zion Williamson" characterEnjoy. Or don't, the choice is yours.

Brooklyn Nets swingman Joe Harris joins the show to talk about a plethora of topics ranging from Washington basketball to his time in Cleveland to how the Nets are shaping up heading into this upcoming season. Then in the second half of the show Lights, Camera, Barstool come on to discuss McGruff the Crime Fighting Dog, Smokey the Bear, favorite comedic actors, and what the final score of a Team USA football game would look like in the Olympics.

For the first hour, Left Brain and Larry from OFWGKTA join the program to talk everything from LeBron coming to LA, goats, skating, and their new album, "Mind Gone, Vol. 2: Gone, Never Forgotten" Then, for the second hour, KANE IS BACK IN THE BUILDING! Along with ranking old Nickelodeon cartoons. Also, fuck Linda Ellerbee.

Boston Celtics point guard and all around good guy Terry Rozier comes back from England with some takes about summer workouts, playing the Philadelphia 76ers on Opening Night and Christmas, and shares some thoughts on YG's and Travis Scott's new albums. Then, Withers and the Mick Man talk about baseball stadiums for reasons I cannot remember in the slightest.

We talk a decent heap of Randy Moss on this particular episode, specifically - but not limited to - how he is better than Jerry Rice. We also run through the entire NBA slate of over unders for the upcoming season. It's 2:00 in the morning so I don't have much energy to be super witty right here in this description space as I typically am.

Atlanta Hawks forward Justin Anderson joins the program to talk about the most underrated defenders in the League, the best and worst dressed guys on the 76ers, his love of crab, how overwhelming the Marvel movie franchise is, and his basketball camp in his hometown in Virginia. After that, Dana and the Mick Man ride the rails down to Atlanta.

Waka Flocka Flame joins the program for a smooth 45 minutes to talk about everything and anything. Krusty the Clown, Darkwing Duck, nerds, video games, performing overseas in the wrong futbol kit, everything. You would not believe the abundance of topics we covered in this interview. After that, we talk a lot of Mike Hampton for reasons I can't quite remember. Plus, stories with Dana.

Scary Terry! Jay Williams! The Top 10! What an outrageous show on a Friday mornin' for your earholes!

Daughter of Milwaukee Bucks' owner Wes Edens, Mallory joins us for the first hour of the program to talk about Giannis' development, saying goodbye to Jabari, Becky Hammon's future in coaching, Toronto being substantially colder than Milwaukee, burner accounts, Dwight Howard's love of snakes, and her mother's alpaca farm. After that, Withers and the Mickman engage in nonsensical ramblings about nothing in particular for the following hour and change. And also tell you where we'll be this weekend.

Kawhi is a Raptor! DeMar is a Spur! Marcus Smart remains a Celtic! Melo is a Hawk kinda! What does it all mean? Are the Raptors now favorites in the East? Are the Spurs sociopaths for not engaging with Philly? All that before we get into the important discussion: Jimmy G and Kiara Mia hitting the town, just two young kids in puppy love. We put our full support behind this burgeoning relationship and that's precisely when the train goes flying off the tracks for roughly an hour. Then, and I don't know how it took this long to touch on this subject: Velvet Milkman. Finally, the second to last installment of the Mickstape 50.

In honor of the MLB All Star Game tonight, Withers and the Mick Man give their All Time Starting 9s. Not necessarily the statistical best at every position, but the team they would trot out there to go win a couple two-tree baseball games, yanno? But before we get into all that, International Sensation Donnie Does joins us off top to regale us with tales from overseas including a legendary night out with John Salley, his rivalry with Stephon Marbury, a Shaq endorsements gone awry, and Delonte West getting sick eating street meat.

Scary Hours returns as Terry Rozier talks about what he saw at Summer League this past week, the young guys who stood out to him, how bad he is at golf, how much Danny Ainge cannot cover him, and shares some thoughts on the new Future album before unveiling that he really doesn't like anyone in the NBA who doesn't play for the Boston Celtics. Afterwards, Withers and the Mick Man break down #30-21 of the Mickstape 50. An incredibly long discussion ensues as both have a run on point guards ranging from the original Mr. Triple Double to the Point God himself. At some point or another we also fixed American soccer. Not that it's an original idea but you're welcome for chiming in on the everlasting and ongoing discussion.

Summer League is in full swing and it is EXCELLENT. Free agency has hit a bit of a lull but luckily for us Kobe fans are acting like complete and utter weirdos. Coley and Tyler look up some random conspiracies to see what's worth digging further into. And finally: Future Hendrix dropped a tape last week and boy oh boy did we need it.

To start the program, Withers and the Mickman spend some time debating 4th of July food vs. Thanksgiving dinner, which will surely make zero people mad. Then, Terry Rozier joins the conversation (00:19:12-00:54:05) to talk about free agency, not giving a shit about the Lakers rivalry even with LeBron there, the Celtics having a target on their back in the East, and Marcus Smart. Finally, we end the show on Part 2 of "The Mickstape 50." Where the first 10 had much overlap between Withers and Mick, #40-31 is where things start to go astray, including the most shocking pick by Tyler ever of all time.

First ballot Twitter Hall of Fame user and one half of "No Losses" @YC joined the program to talk a variety of topics ranging from music to the Knicks. We recorded that from 2pm Monday July 2, 2018, until 4pm July 2, 2018. Then we went home, prepared for the holiday, ate some dinner, laughed with friends, and the world decided to change FOREVER after DeMarcus Cousins decided to take a minuscule bag to join the Golden State Warriors because why the fuck not? This is, undoubtedly, the most chaotic timeline we could possibly be living in. Withers and the Mick Man try to build a team that could beat the Warriors while wondering why people love the Dream Team but hate seeing a better version of them that happen to play more games. Four hours just for you and your holiday voyages. Stay safe out there.

LeBron James signed with the Los Angeles Lakers. Which is why we're dropping this emergency podcast on your head top. You're welcome. We also found 15-20 minutes to talk about pyramids in the middle there. Truly as well balanced an emergency episode as we could've hoped for. Regularly scheduled Tuesday/Thursday episodes still coming this week. You're welcome again.

Terry is back to talk about playing at Dyckman for A Boogie's squad, what he meant when he called him the new Michael Jackson, Shane Larkin's over excitement for the new Drake album, who really should've won Rookie of the Year, what it means to be able to give back to the community that raised him, the Purge-like picture he paints of Cleveland if LeBron leaves again, and the Browns are going 9-7 this season you heard it here first. Also, last time Terry was in NY he ran into Joel Embiid in the club and things remained ice cold between them.

The first installment of The Mickstape 50, where Tyler and Coley give you their 50th-41st best players ever of all time. Two Celtics make their appearance on the episode and you'll quite literally never believe who brought them up. I'm serious, you're already wrong for your guess. The Mickstape 50 will continue every Tuesday until we reach #1, so like the next month. What a time to be alive. If you feel the need to argue over these selections, do so into the void. Perhaps jam your face into a pillow and scream your thoughts. Whatever helps you sleep at night. Whatever you do, do not direct them towards Withers or the Mick Man. We are not here to argue.

It's Draft Day, a huge moment in exactly 60 people's lives. But what really goes into that process? How grueling are the workouts back to back to back in order to show something extra to a team that's considering drafting you? What's it like to know, "Hey, I really am good enough to get to that next level and play in the League?" Is there a better feeling than getting your name called on tv by Adam Silver? Luckily for us, we have Tyler to recount his call from the Orlando Magic back in '03 - a glorious day for the Withers family... Oh yeah, also Terry Rozier tells his whole story, starting with prep school and ending with jumping in the pool full clothed after getting the call from Brad Stevens.

The hardest working man in basketball joins the program to educate the two least hard working men in any profession on the eve of the NBA Draft. More Kawhi talk and a heavy emphasis on prospects from Ayton and Doncic to Shake Milton and De'Anthony Melton. This is the deepest dive you'll need to hear to prep for tomorrow night's draft so you're welcome for doing all the heavy lifting for you. I'm talking directly to you, GM-less Philadelphia 76ers.

Withers and the Mick Man try to figure out the ideal landing spot for Kawhi, while also searching for the perfect dark horse team that could get in the mix and truly shift the power in the East. Some draft talk happens but not too much as Reags is going to join us for a special bonus episode going down tomorrow. That's right folks,, you're getting THREE (3) Tapes this week. And at the beginning of this episode, Story Time With Dana takes some wild twists and turns as per usual.

Episode Two with Terry Rozier covers a whole heap of topics ranging from the NBA Finals, Terry's offseason in Miami, boats, roasting teammates, the new Future album, some heavy music talk, and also how a player feels when he gets bashed openly on Draft night by the "experts". We also introduce a new segment called "Terry's Tweets" where we go back and revisit one of Terry's old gems. Finally, we talk about every movie that came out in 1994 and also, Stephen A. Smith may possibly be a billionaire???

You think the Warriors ruined the NBA already? Buddy,,, just wait til they get done with free agency this summer. They haven't even begun to ruin the NBA. Withers and the Mick Man reflect back on the season that was, look forward to the summer, talk some Mo Bamba and a little bit of draft prep, and go all the way back ten (10) years to review Tha Carter III.

Boston Celtics Point Guard Terry Rozier finds a new home on Mickstape as a new era begins. After a brief breakdown of the future of the show with just Coley and Tyler, Scary Terry himself sits down in studio to talk about his crazy playoff run, his plans for the summer, what it's like to be the constant subject of trade rumors, Joel Embiid's tweets about Aron Baynes, and so much more. It's about to get real scary around these parts.

Thursday.

Resident Philadelphia 76ers fan Rone stops by for a special bonus episode breaking down the Colangelo burner account saga. After Rone leaves, we spend the remaining 20 minutes to talk about candy for some reason.

Milwaukee Bucks wing Khris Middleton joins the program to talk about Sterling Brown, the NBA giving players a platform to speak on societal issues, Kobe vs. MJ. vs. LeBron, the future of the Bucks, and what it feels like to shoot 60% from three in the playoffs. After that, Young Pageviews and Trent sit in to talk about the whole Drake vs. Pusha T circus. We'll be back tomorrow with a special bonus episode to talk entirely about the Bryan Colangelo situation in Philly. Also, the audio quality on this episode is tremendous outside of the ad reads at the beginning. Blame Brett for that.

The Celtics and Rockets, despite both being up 3-2 in their respective series, decided to run the "never hit any shots no matter what not even if there's a fire" offenses in Game 7s where they held double digit leads only to get shuttlecocked out of the playoffs. So it's Cavs-Warriors IV as everyone on the planet who has ever even seen a basketball expected. After we pay our respects to the fallen, we review the All NBA teams and create this year's 4th Team All NBA. Finally, Tyler was rather perturbed at the lack of respect Carmelo Anthony was receiving online, so we announce the Mickstape 50: coming to a podcast streaming service near you soon.

The Celtics lost by a combined one billion points in Games 3 and 4 as the Cavaliers have forced this series into a best of three. The Warriors have already beaten the Rockets. It's technically only 2-1 but that series is over than over. I don't have anything funny or witty to say right now.

The Big Time Movie Boys from Barstool's newest podcast "Lights, Camera, Barstool" join today's program to discuss cereal mascots, Draft Day 2, and explain their Rotten Tomatoes Drinking Game. But before all that, Withers and the Mick Man break down the Celtics dominant two games against the Cavs, how the Cavs can come back in this series, and give the Rockets still zero chance to beat the Warriors this series.

Are the Cavs dead? The Cavs can't possibly be dead. Only one game happened. There's a whole six games left in the series. Can the Cavs go 4-2 against anyone not named the Toronto Raptors right now though? So many questions, three hours worth of time to break it down. Withers and the Mick Man also try and figure out where the Raptors go next now that Dwane Casey has been let go. How do the Jazz improve their roster through trades? Was Playboi Carti's album a slap or a disc to break weed on? How much weed is Klay on for reportedly leaning towards turning down $50 mil? And should the 76ers trade for Kawhi and sign LeBron?

Ben Simmons is a coward who wont shoot threes. LeBron James gets to beat the Celtics one last time before he leaves Cleveland again. The Warriors get to beat the Rockets for shits and giggles. Has CP3 had a better career than Steph Curry? Some pundits say yes for reasons we simply do not understand. The WNBA regular season is quickly approaching and we're all the way in on this upcoming year. Jay Z doesn't know how to perform live, meanwhile Tyler was a bit underwhelmed by the new Rae Sremmurd triple album. The Mickman was not.

What should the Raptors do moving forward since they can't seem to do anything right when it comes to beating LeBron and showing up in the postseason? Do they blow it up? Fire Casey and try a new coach? Or simply hope their young guys take a big enough step forward next year that they'll be ready in 12 months? Also, the Philadelphia 76ers won a game against a team they were heavily favored against. No confetti was dropped for reasons no one quite understands. Should the Celtics be nervous? Do the Sixers have what it takes to become the first NBA team to erase an 0-3 deficit? Finally, Tyler reviews his first trip ever to Boston. What a wild ride for Whiskers.

This entire podcast was recorded on the train from New York to Boston. I don't know what else to say about it. That's what we did.

There's one matchup with any semblance of intrigue while the Rockets and Warriors drub the Jazz and Pelicans. I guess the Raptors could, in theory, beat the Cavaliers but the Raptors also don't have LeBron James so ehhhh probably not. The Celtics and the 76ers series inspired perhaps the most heated debate between Tyler and Coley to date as they don't see anywhere remotely close to eye to eye in this series at all. We recorded in the afternoon just before radio started which explains why it's shorter than usual, and Dave strolls in for the final minutes to shockingly pick the Celtics to win the series. In the middle of the episode we also try and figure out where Donovan Mitchell ranks among players in the Western Conference after his rookie season, where he'd go in a redraft of the 2017 Class, and also if the Jazz would be better, worse or the same with Devin Booker instead.

It's finally here. The highly anticipated, mostly idiotic, live watch of the critically acclaimed full length feature film "Draft Day" starring friend of the program Arian Foster, Black Panther, Diddy, Chris Berman, and a white woman who Tyler cannot identify for the life of him.

Takes here! Get your NBA takes here! We just recorded this. Little mid day treat for the folks at home. The Wolves are dead, the Pacers are soon to be dead, the Thunder came back from the dead, but also now Melo is dead. We're about to record the Weekend Special Edition Draft Day Spectacular now so sorry for the short, non-humorous write up you're so dearly used to.

Withers and The Mick Man recorded for a smooth 3+ hours. All Business Pete set us up, told us we were ready to go, left us to our own devices, and then at the completion of those three hours we come to find out the machinery just straight up shut off after hour one. So... Here is that hour. We will release another show this afternoon, as well as record a bonus episode for this weekend. Hopefully our mics are turned on and the computers recording don't just inexplicably shut off for no reason whatsoever. Again, if you have any complaints whatsoever, please direct them to All Business Pete.

Alright, I'm going to be upfront with you people - this episode is very good. There's just one minor problem: we recorded this podcast on the second floor of our office. Tyler is in New York and, despite recording at the exact same time every single Monday and Wednesday for the entire season, we were not given the studio to record today. Pretty rude. Because of this, we had to use three microphones in essentially a conference room. Withers sounds crystal clear. The Mick Man sounds crystal clear.... Arian Foster and Steven Cheah sound like they're miles away. But no worries, Arian is only on for about 15 minutes during the first half of the show and if you can't hear NFL Draft Expert Steven Cheah loudly enough during the second half, we'll just bring him on back in for Thursday's show. Despite the fact that there are two NFL-centric guests on today's show, it is entirely NBA Playoffs based for the first two hours. We talk about the Blazers being dead, why no one picked the Pelicans, Lance Stephenson being the troll gawd, the Celtics dropping two in Milwaukee, the Jazz jumping out to a lead against the Thunder, Whiteside's defense on Embiid, and all the rest of the goodness that's transpired throughout the first round thus far.

Eric Bledsoe stinks and stinks out loud. Karl-Anthony Towns also, as well, has stunk loudly and oftenly. The Trail Blazers, in our humble opinion, should try scoring more points than their opponent once or twice just to see how it works out for them. And the 76ers lost? To the Heat? The Eastern Conference Champion Philadelphia 76ers lost a game??? Tough to believe, tough to fathom, but it's true.

What a first weekend, huh? If the NBA playoffs are gonna be this good every single game from now til the middle of June then the NFL might as well pack up shop and call it a day. The Warriors, surprisingly, look fine. Chris Paul tried his damnedest to blow Game 1. The Wizards probably should've won Game 1, that was a big time misstep on their behalf. The Celtics needed a little bit of overtime to not lose to Giannis and Khris Middleton but dammit they got it done. The 76ers looked unbeatable, then... not so much. The Cavs? Buddy....

Hey. Hi. Hello. Welcome. Happy first weekend of the NBA playoffs, everybody. Now, we recorded this episode on Wednesday afternoon, so this episode actually has little to do with what happened Saturday, and some would argue even less to do with what's about to happen on Sunday. But don't fret! We talked about Tristan ThompsonGate, tossed around some hypotheticals for the NFL Draft, and called our shots for the Timberwolves getting into the playoffs and Russell Westbrook getting enough rebounds to secure that season long triple double. I assume we talked about other shit sprinkled throughout this but it's hard to say since it was recorded over three days ago. And also, mostly, because I am not very bright.

It's the playoff preview. We preview the playoffs. It's 3 in the morning. We just finished recording these three hours. I'm not gonna be funny in this write up like you're used to me being. Cut me some slack my pals. All of the information you need about this episode is right there in the title. This is an episode of Mickstape during which we preview the playoffs. It's a big time episode.

Like... maybe? No seriously, the Cavs should win the East since they still have that LeBron James guy but the second best team in the East is absolutely the 76ers. No, it's not the Raptors. More like Craptors, imho. Maybe if the Raptors get some luck and draw the 76ers in the second round, but seeing as they're going to have to play the Cavs it looks like curtains for them earlier than they had hoped. But can the 76ers beat the beleaguered Celtics? Sure, why the hell not? The most intriguing Eastern Conference Finals matchup - by far - is the team with Simmons and Embiid vs. LeBron. As for the Western Conference playoffs: all 15 teams are still eligible for the 3 seed. No one will have any idea who is in the playoffs until the Wolves play the Nuggets on the final day of the season. ONLY THEN will we have even the slightest bit of a clue as to whomst is playing.

It's award szn over at Mickstape where we try and figure out First, Second, and Third Team All NBA along with Rookie of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, Coach of the Year, and all the other awards we know and love. We also spend a good 20 minutes on the NFL Draft, what the Giants should do with Odell, what the Patriots will do now that Cooks has been traded, and should anyone be in a rush to take any of these QBs? Also, Coley tries to teach Withers about soccer - a sport neither of which know anything about.

I'm going to be honest with you, it's 3:30 in the morning. We recorded this show 12 hours ago. We talked about a myriad of things. I do not remember all of those things. I remember we talked about why littering is bad like some Captain Planet underlings at some point. We talked about how Shaq may be the most recognizable human being of all time. We mocked the Thunder for trading James Harden and breaking up potentially the greatest young core of all time. We tried to figure out a Kawhi trade. Alright at this point I guess I remember a decent amount of what we talked about. Coley yells at Tyler about Coach Of The Year for like 2 minutes max. And oh yeah, Ben Simmons is still really good.

JK LOL buddy couldn't even figure out how to break a 2-3 zone. We recorded this at 3 in the afternoon yesterday so we didn't talk about Karl-Anthony Towns dropping a Timberwolves record 56 points OR Jaylen Brown hitting a game-winning three with .3 seconds left against one of the hottest teams in the NBA on their own court. But in case you didn't know, both of those things happened. In the real world. Within hours of one another. We're proud of both our baby boys.

Markelle Fultz is BACK! Terry Rozier is the best player in the world! Malik Newman has risen from the ashes and has regained relevance in the NBA Draft! I think we only talked about basketball today? Is that possible? I know we talked about the NFL Draft for a minute, and Tyler reminisces about Drew Stubbs for reasons I can't remember, but yeah. Lotta basketball talk. Nerlens gets his name thrown around for a bit. Boogie gets talked about for a hot second. Tyler throws around some names for coach of the year while Coley becomes increasingly angrier. And, oh yeah, we talk about The Ringer, whom we know are listening to this right now. Sup Bill.

ESPN dropped one of the more horseshit lists in the history of numerical ranking systems and boy are we irate on the web about it. All of the Celtics are dead, the Coach of the Year race is a tight one league wide, Ricky Williams is selling marijuana legally, and we grade which teams tanked the best this season. Then, to end the show, Frank Kaminsky and his childhood chums join to promote their new Barstool podcast Pros and Joes: regaling us with tales of ExtenZe ingestions gone awry, favorite childhood movies, Tournament talk, and a quick Dan Dakich roast session.

Glen Big Baby Davis is allegedly the plug, and he's not afraid to tell you about it from the world's smallest plane next to a briefcase filled with 20s. The first weekend of the Tournament is over and Tyler is truly upset that his Kentucky Wildcats don't have any top seeds in their way to get to the Final Four. It's a real shame. Piggybacking off Wither's tweet about the inside car light being illegal whilst driving, we try and remember other rumors that got spread nationwide before the internet was a thing.

PFT Commenter joined the show to defend his beloved soup. Rone joined the show at some point, I can't remember what he was rambling about, I'm pretty baked right now if we can speak candidly for a moment, but he said some things in English for all to enjoy. Jared Carrabis said he was a smarter human being than LeBron James, which Tyler and I feel to be wildly false. Andrew Wiggins said he's not comfortable being the third option in Minnesota, despite the fact he's not really the third option in Minnesota right now, so weird move by him. And finally, we look through the remainder of the Nuggets schedule to see if they're really going to miss the playoffs after a promising season?

The hardest working man in college basketball @BarstoolReags came through to tell us two bozos exactly what's going to go down during the Tournament, including a solid 20 minute Kentucky conversation because that's what happens when two #BBN alumni get together. But before all that, Withers and The Mick Man break down the Kanye bracket making its way around the web and pontificate about Drake's signature song. Everyone on the Celtics is incredibly injured and Coley is surprisingly not taking it very well at all.

Our favorite holiday is here and, you're never going to believe this, but we found 45 minutes worth of cereal talk that we somehow had never touched on before. Honestly an incredible feat if we can all be honest with each other for a moment. Julius Randle, Lonzo Ball, Josh Jackson, Anthony Davis, Nikola Jokic, and Michael Porter Jr. are all discussed heavily as we try to remember this is a basketball podcast before diving into ranking Kanye albums for reasons which remain unclear.

Over the weekend, many people became enraged on the web at Tyler for saying Karl-Anthony Towns is better than Joel Embiid, so that is heavily discussed at the top of the ol' show here. Devin Booker became the third faster player in NBA history to hit 4,000 points - what is his game going to look like in five years? Many people forget Anthony Davis is only a year older than Joel Embiid, people don't like talking about it but it's true. Whom of LeBron, Durant and Giannis is going to make the ALL NBA First Team? There's only two spots for that designation, yanno, and one of those fine gentleman is going to be SOL. Oh yeah, J.R. Smith pelted Damon Jones with a bowl of soup. In the real world. That's a thing that happened. Absolutely tremendous.

Tyler and Coley continue on their search for the perfect playoff system. It isn't perfect yet but it's going to be, believe you me, friend. We also lay out potential plans to eliminate belts, talk a little Timberwolves post-Jimmy Buckets, and Coley ends the episode by fixing...pizza?

Kevin Love will always respond if you talk about him on the web. Trust us, we know. Sup Kev. In this incredibly late episode we talk about fixing the playoffs, the frontrunner for MVP, the Timberwolves post-Jimmy Butler, Isaiah's level of care on the Lakers, Emeka Okafor's comeback, Chris Farley's career, and the assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy.

You want Doncic takes? Well buddy,,, we got Doncic takes.You wanna hear what round the Timberwolves are going to make it to in the playoffs? Friend, we've got you covered.Is this Dame Lillard's last run in Portland? Amigo,,, escucha me. All this, Jaren Jackson Jr., Gordon Hayward, Sam Hinkie, Cuban, and Kendrick Perkins takes abound in this very special episode of Mickstape. 

All Star Weekend came and went and boy do we have plenty to talk about. And by plenty to talk about, we mean Klay being on Pluto the entire weekend, Quavo's athletic prowess, a star was born, Juice's dominance in the Rookie-Sophomore game, players actually trying in the ASG under the new format, Jimmy Butler being too drunk to play, the dunk contest judges fucking over Dennis Smith Jr., and why do crows get the designation of being called a "murder" when they're in a group?

Big Cat talks his Baby Bulls before All Business Pete begrudgingly gives us the most in-depth Curling preview on the planet. Once Pete had enough of our shenanigans and leaves us high and dry, Coley and Tyler give a full preview of All Star Weekend, picking the correct winner of each event while also naming MVP for the Rookie-Sophomore Game and the regular old All Star Game. Finally, Coley introduces Withers to two (2) rising stars in basketball twitter.

Tyler thinks they have a better chance of winning one more game against the Warriors than they did prior to the trade deadline. Coley thinks they'll win the same amount of games against the Warriors but with more flair and pizzazz. Lou Will really might've fucked everybody's money up this summer. Why isn't Myles Turner talked about with the rest of the elite young bigs in the League? Karl-Anthony Towns was allowed more than 10 shots in his most recent game, we hope everything is ok with Thibs. How come we never got to take Shop Class in High School? Did you see that move Luka Doncic pulled off? Woo boy was that a thing. Some heavy television talk in this one, folks. Smash that download button, por favor.

Isaiah Thomas: GONE. Rodney Hood: GONE. Noah Vonleh: GONE. A wild trade deadline has come and gone, and Withers and the Mick Man are here to break it all down.

The "and stuff" is important. Because while we talk about all things trade related, we also talk about Kristaps Porzingis' ACL tear, the Team LeBron Curse, the Cavs struggles, should Silver step in and make Houston-Golden State the Finals, "Peaky Blinders," and why we're more likely to listen to a new musician before a new stand up comedian. It's a big week. If any trades do happen at the deadline, we'll release another show tonight. Because you deserve it and we love you.

Somehow, someway, the Philadelphia Eagles have won a Super Bowl in the real world. Congrats to Tyler for his home team coming through in the Big Game. And also our deepest apologies to Tyler for his other home team collapsing on the biggest of stages. In the basketball world, Aaron Gordon pulled out of the dunk contest, Jabari Parker is back, trade rumors are everywhere, and the MVP race is as wide open as we can remember it. Smash those download and play buttons por favor.

Coley and Tyler go into a deep investigation over James Harden's most recent outburst against some of the other great scoring outbursts in NBA history. We also broke down how Kevin Love's hand was really broken while wondering what Andre Drummond has to gain by coming at Juice. Tyler also makes his Super Bowl pick while if you don't already know Coley's pick you live under the world's largest rock. Coley and Tyler also make ominous and indirect threats towards the NFL Hall of Fame. It would be a real shame if Randy Moss wasn't elected first ballot. A real shame indeed.

Incredibly selfish move by Woj to wait until right after we finished recording yesterday to drop the biggest NBA news in some time. If you have complaints about the timing of this podcast coming out, direct them to him. This is his fault and surely not ours. John Wall also got hurt after we recorded, which stinks and stinks bad. We also reviewed "Culture II" in addition to bashing old Chris Paul screw ups for some reason. Also, more hypotheticals.

Coley and Tyler do a Mock Draft of the All Star Game since the NBA is refusing to air it live nationally in what would be the most intriguing Draft since the '83 NFL Elway saga. Who was the biggest snub from making the game? Is this the last time Ben Simmons doesn't make the ASG? But before all that,,, what animals are you taking in a fight to save your life? What items would you keep in your basement for a decade with Barry Bonds? The questions that are sweeping America only here on The Tape.

Philadelphia Eagles fan Adam "Rone" Ferrone joins the program to discuss his curse on the Patriots and how well that's working out for him at the moment, why the city of Philadelphia is embracing Kobe Bryant, and what his confidence level is heading into the "Big game." Zion Williamson chose Duke, which is briefly discussed in the middle of it all before we get to the important things in life: Tyler started a new, widely popular television series. Also, boy oh boy do the Cavaliers stink out loud.

Uncle Chaps joins the first 15 minutes of the program to discuss his Jaguars and defend his Simpsons slander before Dave rudely bursts into the studio to steal our handsome pal away. Then, it's on to the new version of the NBA, the one where everyone hates each other, the one where Arron Afflalo can't stop swinging on fools, the one with secret underground tunnels, the one where James Harden hires a hitman to get Austin Rivers up outta here once and for all, the one where the Cavaliers hate themselves.

Karl-Anthony Towns, Jr. and Kristaps Porzingis squared off yet again last week and boy oh boy are Tyler and Coley here to talk about the transpirings of that game. Would be a real shame if facts and logic seeped their way into this conversation. But before all that, internet rapping sensation Rone barges into the room to defend Jerry Rice and break down Markelle Fultz' very broken jumper.

LaMelo and LiAngelo Ball made their Lithuanian debut to a smashing success and the LaVar haters and doubters are still very much out here. Somehow some way they hate, yet LaVar rises like the viewers on his Facebook lives. Oh well, they'll see one day that they were on the wrong side of history. Kris Dunn, Trae Young, and heating up pizza in the microwave vs. the oven are discussed heavily in detail before Withers and the Mick Man reveal their top five funniest people of all time lists.

LaVar Ball wants Luke Walton outta there, and Lonzo doesn't exactly disagree. Karl-Anthony Towns may have fixed his defense and the haters and losers, of which there are many, are besides themselves. Also, our close personal friend Nathan Peterman capped off the Bills season with an electric three plays that Withers and the Mick Man simply HAD to break down. Finaly, the boys reveal #s 15-6 of their funniest people of all time. We would have given the entire lists today but we ran out of time because it's the real world Peter Pan and shit happens sometimes. So, Thursday you'll get the rest of the list. And you'll like it. And maybe you'll have the feeling of disagreeing with it. And if you get that feeling, have it over there where we can't see it. Thank you and good night.

The Cleveland Browns of the NBA, the Sacramento Kings, continue to have no idea what they're doing. The Oklahoma City Thunder have figured out what they're doing, and yet Paul George STILL wants to be a Laker. Why are the Hornets ungood? Is it Dwight's fault? It's probably Dwight's fault. Should the Hornets trade Dwight to Milwaukee? Maybe, who are we to say? Also, Gallagher was really fucking famous for a really long time and that's super fucked up.

Dave Chappelle is back and so are we to discuss the most prolific, problematic comedian in the game today according to the internet. After that, some basketball talk? No, it couldn't be. On this show? Would be a real shame if Coley and Tyler talked about Trae Young, Deandre Ayton, Michael Porter Jr., Karl-Anthony Towns, Marcus Smart, James Harden, Rajon Rondo, and the lowly Los Angeles Lakers. A real shame. Oh yeah, "Huncho Jack, Jack Huncho," is reviewed before Tyler breaks down Season 7 of "Game of Thrones." Welcome back, America.

Robbie Fox joins Tyler and Coley to discuss the best of the year encompassing all things music, movies, television and pop culture. Who won 2017? What was the best chune? What cereal rose above the competition to be the most scrumtrulescent of them all? All this and much, much more on the final Mickstape of 2017.

Rone, of the hit podcast "Young and Happy" and the popular Snapchat show "5th Year," breaks down the door of the recording studio to defend the honor of Kobe Bean Bryant after Tuesdays slander infused episode. The Philadelphia 76ers blogger goes on to make some points, all of which are heavily disputed by Coley and Tyler. After that, Trae Young remains the best player on the planet, LaVar Ball starts up his own League, and someone needs to return Charlie Villanueva's toilet back immediately. And oh yeah,,, Tyler finished Season 6 of Game of Thrones.

The Lakers retired two numbers for Kobe Bryant last night, so we decided it would only be fair to roast that doberman pincher faced bum for approximately 40 minutes or so because we can and it would be nothing more than propaganda if the entire day was just one long jerk fest of the guy who literally tried to force his way to the pre-Blake Griffin Clippers just because he was having one of his many temper tantrums. The at best 17th greatest player of all time (at the time of his retirement) was celebrated across the web yesterday and frankly it made us sick, so kindly join us for the other side of the tale. The right side of history. I'm labeling this "The Kobe Bryant Slander Appreciation Hour #1" because I can only assume this is the first of many times we do something like this. Feels like a great time to remind everyone that we are not, I repeat NOT, here to argue. Thank you.

Joel Embiid lightly sautéed Karl-Anthony Towns while Kristaps Porzingis made history with Jenn Selter watching in the crowd. Has Tyler bought into Oklahoma's Trae Young yet, is the Bahamas the newest hot spot of top talent, should Ayton be the consensus top overall prospect for the upcoming draft, are there any small forwards coming into the league next year, how is it humanly possible that Kawhi Leonard still has more career steals than he does fouls? No seriously, he has more steals than he's committed fouls. How? How is that possible? It doesn't make any sense.

Victor Oladipo is the best player in the world as long as it says Indiana across his chest. Tyler and Coley try and figure out how many first time All Stars will make this year's rosters. Tyler becomes physically ill when he realizes that there's no way Dwyane Wade does not make the East's roster and it keeps off one of the several deserving actually currently good players whom have yet to play in their first ASG. And that was just the East. There may only be five teams represented on the Western Conference All Star Team. After all of that is broken down, Tyler breaks down Season 5 of Game Of Thrones, which he was able to watch in a day after Atlanta was crushed with up to as many as two whole inches of snow.

Why Round 3? Because the first two rounds were such a blowout in Karl-Anthony Towns' favor no one even knew there was a fight happening. It didn't even cross anyone's mind that this was a discussion until last week. But people want to discuss, so here we are, discussing two of the most talented young big men in the game today for 40 or so minutes. But before we get to all that... phone books were absolutely terrifying. Who allowed those? Why were those ever a thing? Those should've never been a thing.

Volume 33 encompasses everything from the Lakers falling into top five pick territory to Jayson Tatum's incredible start to his NBA career, LaVar Ball pulls LiAngelo Ball out of UCLA before he ever registered a minute playing college basketball, should Collin Sexton and Trae Young be more hyped prospects for the upcoming draft, is Joel Embiid beefing with too many other centers right now, the Cavaliers own the League's longest winning streak, and should the Warriors fear the Rockets in the slightest OR is Chris Paul merely the Michael Crabtree to Steph Curry's Aqib Talib? Also,,, Tyler has FINALLY finished season four of Game of Thrones. Folks - - Volume 33 is a doozy. Smash that download button.

Our most Minnesotan Kentucky Son Karl-Anthony continues to struggle mightily defensively and it's about time we get to fixing it. Blake Griffin is out for a few months, is that even more incentive for the Clippers to embrace the tank and trade DeAndre Jordan? Will Nerlens ever play again? Will Jahlil Okafor ever be freed from the Sixers? All that and much more before future NFL Hall of Fame Wide Receiver Isaac Bruce joins the program to break down the Michael Crabtree-Aqib Talib saga, the problem with the NFL Hall of Fame's voting process, his feelings on Larry Fitzgerald about to pass him on the all time receiving yards list, the moment he gained respect for Tom Brady, his love of the Miami Heat, Pat Riley, Dwyane Wade vs. Kobe Bryant, and his favorite movie of all time: "Hitch."

Derrick Rose finally realized he stinks at basketball. The Clippers and Thunder are trying to decide if they stink at basketball. Giannis is tired of his team stinking at basketball so he's threatening to beat up anyone and everyone in his general vicinity. Will the Cavs trade the Brooklyn pick? Is Myles Turner currently the most underrated player in the Association? Why does Michael Crabtree continue to wear a chain in the presence of Aqib Talib? You've read those questions and buddy,,, we've got the answers.

Atlanta Hawks big man Dewayne Dedmon joins the program to talk about his unlikely journey to the NBA after not playing organized basketball until he was 18. Dedmon talks about leaving the Spurs, being courted by multiple teams as a free agent, taking revenge on the court against the teams that didn't sign him, and gives one of the best Top 5 cereal answers to date. But before all that, Tyler and Coley go over the best and worst parts of Thanksgiving, The 25th Anniversary of Mr. Plow, Joel Embiid needing an enforcer, LaVar Ball's feud with the president of the free world, and dive into why Ray Allen is the horniest man on the internet at all hours of the day.

Boston's first Son and everybody's favorite cousin, Cousin Stizz comes through to chop it up with us about everything under the sun for a solid 45 minutes before the icon OG Swaggerdick bursts in the studio for the final 15 minutes of the interview. After the break, Coley and Tyler discuss Giannis' historic run, when the Celtics win streak will end, Lonzo's second triple double, the MVP race a month in to the season, and whether or not Ben Simmons ever needs to learn how to shoot.

Boston Celtics point guard Terry Rozier comes into the studio to chop it up about all things Celtics, what the key is to their win streak, meeting Tommy Heinsohn, the adjustment it was after such drastic roster turnover this summer, why Danny Ainge would never trade him, how Sebastian Telfair influenced him, his crippling fear of squirrels, his top five cereals, what's currently in his rotation, and much, much more. After the break, Tyler fixes college basketball. And by fixes I mean he ruins it completely by fixing the G-League.

NBA Hall of Famer and future Poet Laureate Bernard King joins the show (01:11:39) to talk about his new book and tell tales about his days growing up in Brooklyn, playing at Tennessee, all the way through his prolific bucket-getting career in the NBA. But before that: the Cavs continue to stink out loud, is Nerlens broken?, Chris Paul will ruin the Rockets when he returns from injury, Apu is problematic, and KFC stops in to discuss whether Eminem's new single is flaming garbage or just regular old dumpster juice. Thanks to our Sponsors: Tommy John - Head to TommyJohn.com/MICK to get 20% off your first order! NEW BARSTOOL APP - Make sure you're staying up to date with everything Barstool.

LiAngelo Ball stole some Louis V sunglasses in China and he may never see the light of day ever again because of it. Meanwhile stateside, Lonzo Ball can't buy a shot. Small Baller moves from BBB left and right. Tyler finally gets his wish to see Eric Bledsoe on the Bucks, meanwhile his Wizards might just stink. The Thunder? They also might just stink. Ben Simmons? Much to Michael Wilbon's dismay, Ben Simmons very much does NOT stink. In fact, he's historically incredible. That and much more, including Tyler fixing cereal once and for all before former NCAA National Player of the Year and current Charlotte Hornet Frank Kaminsky sits down with us (1:27) to roast Dan Dakich, talk the new Call of Duty, and reminisce on the time Wisconsin got Tyler's Wildcats up outta here. Thanks to our sponsors:  Dollar Shave Club - For a limited time, Dollar Shave Club is basically giving away their 'Sh*t, Shower, Shave Starter set for new members!

We're 1/8th of the way through the NBA season and the takes are FLYING off the shelves. Kristaps Porzingis has apparently passed Karl-Anthony Towns as the best player from the 2015 Draft class according to Knicks fans and only Knicks fans. The Cavs are dead, the Celtics have the best record in basketball, Ben Simmons is actually a monster with or without a jump shot, and should the Rockets have ever traded for Chris Paul in the first place? To end the show, former Duke Blue Devil and NBA veteran Gerald Henderson joins the show to talk playing for Coach K, his infamous elbowing of Tyler Hansbrough, golf, being the son of an NBA player trying to get into the League, and quitting meat and dairy while judging Coley harshly for not quitting meat or dairy.

Former NFL All Pro running back Arian Foster joins the show to talk about absolutely nothing to do with sports outside of his acting prowess in the feature film "Draft Day." Young Thug is discussed before we debate Andre 3000 vs. Big Boi, eventually ending up breaking down "International Players Anthem." This is where things begin to get rocky as we asked Arian the question we ask everyone... "What are your top five cereals?"...Maybe it's our fault. Maybe we should stop asking our pals this question, because it ends up hurting us in the long run. We're not mad at Arian, we appreciate his honesty, it just hurts is all. Hopefully we can grow and move past this amicably but for now, the wounds are too fresh. Arian's brand new podcast "Now What?" is currently available for your listening pleasure.

No one really asked for it, but you got it now. There's nothing you can do about it. It's here, the Definitive Mickstape Top 10 Treehouse Of Horror Lists Spectacular. It's kinda like a Top 15ish, since neither of us have the same lists, but you get the point. These aren't the Top 10 Treehouse of Horror episodes. That would be sophomoric. These are the Top 10 segments within the episodes because we're a galaxy brain type of podcast. After the lists are given and the debates are hashed out, the show quickly devolves into talking about random characters throughout the years and Top 5 lists of ancillary Springfield citizens are hastily constructed. Finally, did aliens attack the Thunder's team plane? Early reports say... yes. Very obviously yes.

Frank Isola of the New York Daily News joins the show to talk some Knicks, some Dolan, some Phil Jackson, some Boston Garden vs. Madison Square Garden, some Charles Oakley, and much more basketball related content before giving the wildest Top 5 Cereal List this show has ever seen or heard. I mean seriously folks, please listen to this episode sitting down because Frank "The Ice Man" Isola absolutely dropped a can't miss list that you're gonna have to hear to fully believe. After that, we talk about David Stern dropping in from the clouds to talk about the WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED-UHHHHHH.

"Homer At The Bat" aired 25 whole years ago. "Springfield Of Dreams" aired a whole two (2) days ago. "Springfield Of Dreams: The Podcast" is airing right now, the second you press play on your mobile device. "But Coley, I listen to podcasts on my laptop. Why do you have to assume I'm streaming this on my iPhone or Adroid?" Well, loyal listener. Perhaps you're the type of person who doesn't listen to podcasts in the traditional sense. Maybe you are a laptop consumer, or some sort of other weirdo or vagabond who refuses to adhere to the rules of modern society. To you I say, "A laptop is very much a mobile device. You can take that sucker anywhere your heart desires. Remember what the original computers looked like? How they'd take up several rooms just to be able to print those sheets of paper that you had to tear the perforated sides off of yourself like some sort of common poor? And people at the time only thought computers were going to get BIGGER over time? Unfathomable how dumb people were years ago. Truly incomprehensible."

Miami Heat guard/forward/emergency center Justise Winslow joins us (0:00-21:25) to become incredibly sad incredibly quickly after we bring up delicious cereals his diet no longer allows him to indulge in. We attempt to transition to music which only brings more rain clouds and despair over his Miami abode. Again, we apologize to Justise Winslow for ruining his day. Was it funny? Yes. Was it intentional? No, but moving forward we may have to employ this tactic routinely. Then Michael Rapaport (21:55-the rest of the show) joins us to yell loudly about Bill Russell, the Knicks being bad and not good, celebrities who are trash at basketball, Rihanna, modern rap, and the plans for the second season of the Big 3.

BASKETBALL IS BACK!!! KYRIE IS ON THE CELTICS!!! GIANNIS IS STILL LARGE AT SPORTS!!! THE WARRIORS RUINED BASKETBALL AND THE BULLS SOLD THEM JORDAN BELL BECAUSE THE BULLS ARE INEPT!!! MELO AND PAUL GEORGE ARE ON THE THUNDER!!! CHRIS PAUL GOT TRADED TO THE ROCKETS FOR SOME REASON!!! BEN SIMMONS AND JOEL EMBIID ARE GOING TO PLAY!!! HYPOTHETICALLY AT THE SAME TIME EVEN!!! KARL-ANTHONY TOWNS HAS REAL TEAMMATES AGAIN!!! TERRY ROZIER!!! BOOGIE AND ANTHONY DAVIS OUR CLOSE PERSONAL FRIENDS!!! NIKOLA JOKIC 12-TIME MVP!!! POINT BLAKE GRIFFIN!!! LAVAR BALL FIST FIGHTING LUKE WALTON AT SOME POINT IN THE NEAR FUTURE!!! THE GREATEST LEAGUE IN THE WORLD IS BACK!!!

The much anticipated Season One Finale is here. We laughed, we cried, we talked about various sugary cereals, cartoons, and international music sensations over the past year. We spoken many things into fruition, had Stephen A. Smith yell about our show, had JaVale McGee question why Coley talks like that. It's been a wild ride to say the least. For the finale we break down the finesse by Joel Embiid, thank Andrew Wiggins for finally putting pen to paper, try and figure out the size of the bag Marcus Smart is going to get, enjoy Villain Kyrie, and - last but not least - preview that we will be previewing curling for the upcoming Winter Olympics.

We recorded before Joel Embiid pulled an all time finesse on the Philadelphia 76ers and signed a five year extension worth a cool $148 mil so apologies for not breaking down that finesse in audio podcast form, that will come - never you worry. We did, however, break down why black licorice, candy corn and peeps are in fact trash and not for human consumption while running through some of the top Halloween candies. We also gave our individual top five cereal lists ever of all time. With Season One of Mickstape winding down it would not have been morally just to go into our sophomore campaign without letting you know exactly what kind of people we are when it comes to what we pair with our milk, bowls and spoons. Oh yeah, we broke down SOME basketball in the middle of all of this, mostly Gary Harris' contract and what it means for Marcus Smart's upcoming negotiations; why the Kings potentially have too many players; and why Ben Simmons should run away with Rookie of the Year this season.

The very handsome Zach Harper sets a Mickstape record by becoming the first returning guest to the show, a record Kareem, Mike Conley, Jr., Dahntay Jones, and JaVale McGee are likely going to lose sleep over knowing it could've been them. But it wasn't. The history books will forever and always note that Zach Harper became the first recurring guest in show history. With Tyler in New York and Zach in studio, this episode is much different than the first time Harper was on the show in the sense that you can actually hear all three of us. Whether or not that's a good thing is up to the people to decide.

THE NBA IS BACK! Kinda, sorta. Preseason is here, and Mickstape has all the takes you need on all things related to the following: Curb Your Enthusiasm, Hey Arnold!, Ren & Stimpy, Legends of the Hidden Temple, Guts, Global Guts, Hey Dude, modern athletes participating in Guts, Angry Beavers, Scrat from Ice Age, Doug, Rugrats, The Simpsons, how flying in airplanes is actually terrifying, Milos Teodosic, the ocean is actually quite large potentially too large, Lonzo Ball, Lavar Ball, Game of Thrones, Lakers fans blatantly disrespecting Kobe Bryant, and Tom Petty.

The season is finally nearing. So naturally, we had a call with NBA Champion and known sandwich-consumer Matt Bonner to discuss all things sandwich. Coley and Tyler briefly reminisce on Shaquille O'Neal's dominance well into his old age before moving studios to have a chat with Pardon My Take's PFTCommenter. No, he was not wearing sunglasses during the interview. We know what his face looks like. You don't. Your eyes don't know what his eyes look like, not even in the slightest. Our eyes do, and that information is for our eyes only. I don't remember what we actually talked about with PFT outside of ranking @TrillBallins brands to go along with 30 minutes of barrel fire takes.

We're beefing with Kevin Love. LeBron, Steph, and the whole NFL are beefing with the president of the United States. Adam Silver (Duke man, Stanford guy, top of his class) is beefing with nobody because whomever opposes Silver is wrong 100% of the time and thus there is not sufficient friction for it to be considered beef. Melo is a Thunder, which is a weird thing to say - not because he got traded to a different team, it's just a weird thing to call a guy a Thunder. Thunderer? Thundite? Who even knows. Certainly not I. But, there's more important things to discuss. Important things happening in this country that need to be broken down and flushed out at length. That's right folks, I'm talking about the season finale of the hit HBO series, "Ballers." Smash that download button, U Bum.

It's a Friday. There's a new Thug tape out. Gucci Mane is an accomplished author. And you have a brand new Mickstape for your ear holes. It simply does not get much better than that. Kevin Durant's leaving comments on Youtube, Stephen Jackson is roasting Kevin Durant for acting out on the world wide web, Future and Cher are doing fuego GAP commercials. The world is in a weird place right now to say the very least. Me and Tyler hit on about 12 win total over/unders just for shits and giggles because we can and like to help you make money in the future. We also debuted a new segment that isn't named in the show but I'm making the executive decision to name right here and now: Tyler Rants About Luka Doncic Being Overhyped For Approximately Three (3) Minutes. Enjoy. Catch y'all on Tuesday.

With only one episode left in the third season of the HBO hit series "Ballers," they did the unthinkable - the Dolphins fired GM Larry Siefert. Coley and Tyler memorialize this great man and all of his endeavors, but not until they hit on all of the big topics of the weekend - like Tyler discovering Early Earl Hebner's Twitter account, Yogi Berra being the original Tweeter, the internet slobbering all over Luka Doncic's weak dunk, football continuing to be bad, and Tyler drops an unexpected bomb on Coley to end the episode. Oh yeah, Kyrie hates on LeBron on live television and Kevin Durant's burner social media accounts are parsed through with a fine-toothed comb.

To kick off the show, Young And Happy's Rone joins us to get mad, nude and red on the web about ESPN's Top 100 Player Rankings. Mostly because they make no sense but also mostly because they're bad and actually not good. After that hour of civil, polite, discourse, NBATV's Sekou Smith joins the program to break down his court-side view of the Malice At The Palace, watching Rasheed Wallace play in high school, T-Mac being the last true unicorn, and a whole lot more. Don't worry, it's not all basketball talk today, as Coley and Tyler found time to argue about whether or not corn is good for a solid 10 minutes in the middle.

*yelling emoji profile face* KANE IS IN THE BUILDING! 36 minutes of talking about the 24-minute episode of Ballers from Sunday night including at LEAST 5 minutes about Larry Seifert's enunciation of Jim Bob Cooter. We then stick with actual football being garbage to start the season and why Lamar Jackson is the best QB in the Nation right now. During the ad reads we break down how ridiculous life in America was in the 1950s for reasons I still don't understand before moving on to just how injured Isaiah Thomas' hip truly is. Tony Allen's signing with the New Orleans Pelicans broke while we were recording so we touch on their soon-to-be high profile offense before questioning what exactly certain people see in Nikola Jokic that made him shoot up the rankings this summer.

Straight out of Joey Bada$$ clique, Nyck Caution drops by to talk about the future of his Knicks, LeBron vs. Kobe, how Westbrook and Paul George will mesh on the Thunder, and the responsibility of being a New York rapper. Before he joins, Tyler talks about why he absolutely will not be watching the new season of BoJack Horseman and why he remains unexcited about the upcoming NFL season. Coley rubs it in Tyler's face that he met Jon Taffer today, because Coley is a bad person. Not as bad a person as that sentient lard of curdled cottage cheese Jason Whitlock. But a bad person nevertheless.

CHARLES GREEN! No days off for Mickstape as there was plenty to discuss in the world of the hit HBO series "Ballers" including, but not limited to, Ricky Jerrett punching a frail rich white kid directly in the face, Charles Green vying for the Chargers GM job and Eddie George's cameo from the clouds. Also, Kyrie's finally actually a Celtic. Why are the Cavs trying to trade the Nets pick immediately? Why on Earth would the Pelicans trade Boogie now? But first: college football and why it's still bad. And, also, finally: LaVar Ball is going to take down the NCAA.

Dave Dameshek of the NFL.com's Dave Dameshek Football Program joined us to preview the 2017 NFL season. That's true, he did join us to do that. But instead, we talked about: condiments, football games that happened anywhere from seven to 35 years ago, the best & worst uniforms in sports, Game of Thrones, waffles, how awful rock/paper/scissors is as a game, and whether or not cereal is a soup. You know, the actual important things in life.

Volume 28 is named Volume 28 because any other name would simply be unjust. We covered all of the topics - Mayweather/McGregor, Kobe Bryant's weird cryptic challenges to random Nike spokespeople, Lil Uzi Vert's new album and VMA award for Song of the Summer, the Cavs/Celtics trade dilemma, and, of course, a full Ballers recap. You're welcome and we love you.

Ballers, Power, Game of Thrones, Rick & Morty, Last Chance U, and Insecure are all discussed before the intro music drops. That is the strength, versatility, and straight up dominance that Mickstape displays on a show by show basis. After the intro like 40 minutes into the show, the Shaq diss track of LaVar Ball is played and broken down bar by bar, insult by insult, advertisement by advertisement. Kyrie and LeBron's beef is also hashed out before Tyler and Coley look back on how underwhelming the mid-2000s San Diego Chargers were.

Caleb and Rone from Young And Happy shanghai the opening to the show before Coley comes back and says his farewells to Avery Bradley. Tyler creates some memes on the fly while bashing graham crackers and praising the Nets. To end the show, a lengthy discussion about the albums that have dropped recently - including, but not limited to, Issa Album, 4:44, Thot Breaker, Beautiful Thugger Girls, Pretty Girls Love Trap Music, and Hot Chicken.

The biggest story to break during Free Agency thus far: Shams jumped over the Woj man. As long time Woj supporters, it's been tough to see but the game is the game. Gordon Hayward is coming to Boston, the Thunder were inexplicably able to trade for Paul George, the Kings got in the mix, and Tyler drank 1,000 (one thousand) beers. Smash that play button.

Chris Paul and James Harden. A match made in.... Well they'll be playing basketball together next season. Because, why not? They're both basketball players. It would've been weird if the Rockets traded for like, Yasiel Puig or some shit. Is Doc Rivers a herb? Is Austin Rivers a nerd? Is Lou Will planning on stuffing Austin Rivers in a series of lockers? Yes. Yes. And we can only hope.

Coley and Tyler take on the Grand Opening of the Big 3. At one point in the day we decided to try and be real life journalists and were able to talk with Gary Payton (start of the show), Dr. J (when Tyler says RIGHT NOW around like 40-something minutes, idk you'll hear it it's super obvious), and the Ice Man George Gervin (instead of the outro song we have George Gervin. I'm sorry for that wicked awesome upgrade. If you need a song for an outro go listen to "Good Times" by Thugger and Jamie XX. That probably would've been today's song if we're being honest with one another.) Now, the Big 3 denied credentials for our camera guy, so the audio on these interviews,,, well, it's audible. And that's the point of a podcast. To be heard. You're welcome.

To the haters and losers, of which there are many in the NBA Draft, Tyler and Coley properly roast them up a storm for picking bad - and in fact not good - players in this year's Draft. To the winners? Well, congrats. We don't really care about you show offs. Looking for validation? You've come to the wrong place entirely, buddy boy.

NBA Champion JaVale McGee joins to discuss his charity - The #JUGLIFE Foundation. Pierre also gets into his dream of becoming a suspect on Law & Order: SVU, the culture in the Golden State locker room compared to other teams, Gilbert Arenas being the original Steph Curry, Kevin Durant lying about his height, and why Pierre didn't stick as a nickname. For more information about The #JUGLIFE Foundation, please visit juglifewater.com.

Danny Ainge traded Coley's youngest, most musclebound son Markelle to the Philadelphia 76ers. So what now? Why did this happen? When will the sun explode, engulfing the Earth in a fiery blaze of magnificent doom and horrifying glory? It's Draft SZN

For some reason, Coley tells Tyler the entire plot of the motion picture "Draft Day" starring Kevin Costner. Tyler simply could not believe that anything Coley was saying about the movie was true, despite Coley being 100% correct for the entirety of his speech - as he is with every sentence he's ever uttered. Jimmy Buffet is eating dinners off our backs, song of the summer is discussed, and also - some basketball talk sneaks in the backdoor.

Kevin Durant wins Finals MVP after the Warriors claim the series in 5 games. If only there had been an NBA podcast which had told you this was going to happen all playoffs long. Because this was such a foregone conclusion, Tyler and Coley spend only a few minutes on the Finals before moving on to the NBA Draft, Darius Miles' estate sale, and Sebastian Telfair's new gun-running endeavor.

And they failed. Miserably. Kevin Durant dotted a dagger in LeBron's eye and that was that. The Warriors are up 3-0, so we decided to discuss whether or not Curry/Durant is actually the best duo of all time or not while wondering if Julius Irving and Rip Hamilton are crazy for thinking their title teams were even playing the same sport as the Warriors.

Coley believes the NBA Finals are a wrap. Done. Finished. Faneto. Tyler believes the Cavs still have an outside chance. Both agree that Kevin Durant is ruining basketball and that the NBA will collapse on itself like a dying star by 2020. Also, the Olympics is finally getting 3v3 basketball and a full breakdown on the Ryan Brothers very un-Jimmy Buffett like behavior at Margaritaville.

THE FINALS ARE HERE..... AAAAND, THEY'RE GONE! Probably. Game 1 was an epic blowout that was close for all of 12 minutes. Luckily for you, we here at Mickstape broke down more than this game because there was nothing even worth taking away from that beatdown. After starting off with some more Jimmy Buffett talk, we dive deep into the Big Baby-Austin Rivers beef and wrap up with the Washington Post's Top 40 Players since the ABA/NBA merger list.

LaMelo Ball set the internet on fire when he went out and dropped a cool seven points on 45 shots, guiding his AAU team to a 50-point loss over the weekend. LeBron, like the classic front-runner that he is, only wins titles the same years Alabama Football brings home the crystal football. And for some reason, Coley and Tyler spent the first 40 minutes of the show debating Gucci Mane and Jimmy Buffett. No one knows why, but it happened.

The NBA Finals are finally here. Well, they're not here - this is just a podcast. The actual Finals are on television. And they're not on television today. Or even tomorrow. A week from today there will be a Finals game that the Cavs and Warriors have played. Classic millennials with a week off before the Finals start. You never would've seen Bird and Magic take a week off. Or Jordan. Or the NFL. It truly makes us sick.

Wilt Chamberlain is one of the greatest basketball players in the history of spheres and hardwood. That much we already knew. What we didn't know, and what still needs unearthing, is the life and times of another, equally as dominant basketball player by the name of George Marcus. Whose mans was this truly? Also, are the Celtics back? Are the Cavs dead? Long answer: yes with an if; short answer: no with a but.

One of the all time greatest basketball players, ambassadors, and overall human beings Kareem Abdul-Jabbar joins us to talk about his new book "Coach Wooden And Me: Our 50-Year Friendship On And Off The Court." Before we get to Kareem (53:00 minute mark), Tyler and Coley rank their All Time centers. We would've previewed the Eastern and Western Conference Finals but, yanno, you already know what's gonna happen.

Memphis Grizzlies Point Guard Mike Conley Jr. is the bravest player in the League as he becomes the first player to sit down in the studio with Coley and Tyler. Because of this he is officially the best point guard in the League and has our full and unwavering support in all endeavors past, present and future. Head over to Twitter and vote him for the NBA Cares Community Assist Award by tagging @mconley11 with the hashtag #NBACommunityAssist

In a few years, this season will be remembered much differently than how it really was in the present. The Cavaliers much harped on struggle will be washed away, James Harden will have been carried to the playoffs as if he were Kobe in his prime, and Jaylen Brown will be called the can't miss prospect of his draft class. We here at Mickstape vow to ruthlessly mock anyone who tries to switch up the narrative down the line. Tyler kept all the receipts.

While the entire basketball world is fixated on LeBron James and his 11-game postseason win streak, his record setting series sweeps, his climb to the top of the all time postseason scoring leaderboard, his quest for his fourth ring, we here at Mickstape break down the greatest living athlete and all of his endeavors - Quavo.

Area 21 needs to be unedited right this second. The fact that this hasn't been green lit yet but they'll make a Rush Hour television show is exactly why millennials aren't buying cable anymore. I mean we're not talking about a patchwork solution here. Having Rasheed Wallace and Kevin Garnett talk about literally anything would be a billion dollar network, let alone show. Get your heads out of your asses ONE TIME for me, Hollywood. Also, Ben Wallace is 6'2".

Finally, the best part of the basketball calendar is upon us. That's right folks - The Big 3 Draft finally happened and we could not be more excited for this season to finally kick off. Every roster is broken down from perspectives of basketball acumen to fisticuffs and everything in between. Oh yeah, the second round of the NBA Playoffs is previewed because I guess those are still going on?

Gilbert Arenas used to be an absolute savage of a human being. Now he's just a savage on occasion. Which isn't nearly enough savagery for this podcast's liking. Step it up, Gil. Perhaps you'd like to come on this podcast to discuss? Also, has anyone seen or heard from Jimmy Butler?

The NBA is lucky Dion Waiters is at home working on this damn article rather than tearing up the playoffs. The viewing audience is not as lucky as the Hawks and Raptors keep playing basketball as some sort of punishment to our eyes and brains. Also, unsurprisingly, Tyler doesn't think Marcus Smart is about that life.

Well,, it hard to say. Intro by @TrillBallins. Big Cat joins the top of the show to talk about his Bulls dragging Coley's Celtics. Caleb Pressley drops in to talk some 4/20 related mishap and the rest of the first round is broken down by Tyler and Coley.

30 years since the greatest show in television history graced the airwaves for the very first time as a crudely drawn short to head into commercial breaks. Now a global empire, Coley and Tyler break down the greatest Simpsons episodes ever of all time.

Kobe Bryant literally said he used to study South African shark hunting patterns in order to learn how to defend Allen Iverson. That was information no one asked about that he just offered up on his own accord. Also, the Knicks remain a clusterfuck and we dive into the start of the playoffs.

Chicago Bulls super fan and GarPax super hater Big Cat from the award winning Pardon My Take joins the playoff preview edition of Mickstape to break down the Bulls-Celtics first round matchup. From there, Tyler and Coley tell you why it's actually a good thing that the Cavs and Warriors will face off for the third straight year before going through Kevin Garnett's old, glorious tweets.

Coley and Tyler give out all of the 2016-2017 NBA awards correctly. Everyone else (the nerds) can't seem to figure out who are the good players vs. whom are the bad ones. Luckily for you, we here at Mickstape know all of the good players - of which there are many - and awarded them properly based on the facts of the matter, like who is our son vs. who is Chris Paul, along with much more hard hitting analysis you simply cannot find anywhere else.

Coley and Tyler recap one of the worst National Championships of all time and bash the Orlando Magic for leaking their free agency plans thoroughly. They debate whether T-Mac's peak was long enough to warrant a trip to the Hall of Fame and question why Chris Webber was left out. Coley nervously talks about the possibility of a first round matchup against Rajon Rondo and Tyler reveals he may have a new MVP choice come next week.

Volume 25 is far and away the worst, least good episode of Mickstape. And yet it remains the greatest basketball podcast in the history of words and spheres. Truly a testament to our pure grit and overall talent that we were able to nut up and get the job done here. Not to brag, but this was like 10 David Lee elbows to the top of the back and we did not roll around on the ground for two commercial breaks making snow angels on the parquet in San Antonio. While the MVP debate rages on, don't forget to vote the true heroes here - the Troops, and also us. Co-MVPs of the 2016-17 NBA season: Mickstape and The Troops.

Special Bonus Edition of Mickstape wherein Tyler and Coley break down both of the new David K. Chappelle Netflix standup specials. The jokes, the surrounding controversies and the man himself are discussed at length, but not before we break down Charles Oakley pinning Scottie Pippen to the wall like Christmas stockings. This is still an NBA podcast most of the time after all. People forget that.

Tyler and Coley recap the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament, talk about which prospects improved or sullied their draft stock, why Rajon Rondo still hates Ray Allen with all his heart, and whether or not this is the greatest MVP race of all time. Also,,, who is this lunatic mailing everyone potatoes?

DRESS IT UP AND MAKE IT REAL FOR ME ESCOMOE, THE COOLEST DJ IN THE WORLD WHATEVER THAT FUCKIN' MEAN DIRTY SODA IN A STYROFOAM SPEND A DAY TO GET MY MIND BLOWN DRESS IT UP AND GO TO NASA 200 MILES ON THE DASH Also, Russell Westbrook, John Wall, and Devin Booker are discussed. WE BALLIN' LIKE THE MARCH MADNESS

Is there too much talent in the NBA? It,,, hard to say. Some damn fine players are gonna get screwed come award season and we actually do give a frickin' heck about it. Who should be MVP? Who should be first team all NBA? Is it too early to make conclusions about this season? No, no it is not.

You've seen the viral video. You've seen the two minutes and thirty seconds of commentary over said viral video. Now? You are about to witness the strength of thirty (30) whole minutes of breakdown of a sixteen (16) second clip of a youth basketball game gone awry.

Kevin Durant: Dead. Joel Embiid: Also, Dead. Jahlil Okafor? Alive and well. In this special, breaking news edition of Mickstape, Coley and Tyler break down what these injuries mean for the rest of the season for the Warriors as well as league wide. There is also some LaMelo Ball bashing to lighten the mood during these troublesome times. Nothing lightens a mood like some teen bashing.

Coley is no longer recording through a tin can so you can actually listen to this episode with great pleasure. Borderline ASMR caliber episode of a thick Boston accent mixed with a heavy southern drawl. Much like the vast, vast majority of the initial 21+ episodes. It's 21+ because they're not all numbered. These are essentially Lil Wayne mixtapes from the mid-to-late-2000s, in case you were wondering. Also, this is the NBA Beef episode. Many beefs are aired out and sorted out, according to Tyler and Coley. You're welcome for bringing everyone a step closer to world peace.

WHAT WERE THE SACRAMENTO KINGS THINKING? WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT? WHAT WAS THE RUSH? WHOSE MANS IS THIS? ARE THEY SHITTING ME? BUDDY HIELD? TYREKE? FOR BOOGIE? BOOGIE COUSINS? REALLY? REALLY REALLY? HOW IS THIS REAL LIFE? Also, an investigative report into Guy Fieri selling dope.

Tyler and Coley break down the Rising Stars Competition, the Celebrity All Star Game, the Skills Competition, the Three Point Contest, the Dunk Contest, and the All Star Game. They don't agree on every winner/MVP and yet they're still, somehow, correct about everything. That's what we in the business call radio magic, folks.

Volume 20 is the very first episode to debut on the Barstool Sports Podcast Network. Tyler visits New York and complains about the cold before the boys break down the Serge Ibaka trade, the Jahlil Okafor non-trade, and break down where Kevin Durant would go in an all time re-draft. Smash that m-f download button.

On this week's actual basketball episode of Mickstape, the boys talk about Paul Pierce's final game in Boston, Carmelo-LeBron, John Wall for MVP, Markelle Fultz vs. Lonzo Ball, where the Brooklyn Nets went wrong, Jahlil Okafor to the Pelicans, how dumb everyone on the planet was 10 years ago, and if Bill Russell is still the greatest Boston athlete ever of all time.

In a special collectors edition of Mickstape: Coley and Tyler bash the Atlanta Falcons mercilessly for blowing the largest lead in the history of competition. Matt Ryan is mocked, Kyle Shanahan is dragged, and the Patriots are rightfully praised for their miraculous 25-point comeback on the greatest stage in front of the entire world. Should this episode have come out yesterday in order to maximize listens? Well,,,, it hard to say.

This week, Coley and Tyler talk about the LeBron-Barkley feud, LeBron being the lamest famous person ever of all time, the never-ending Carmelo Anthony trade saga, and Stephen A. Smith's unhealthy obsession with the WEEEEEDUHHHHH.

In a seminal episode of Mickstape, Tyler and Coley discuss what could have been for Randy Moss' NBA career, how preposterously large Shaq is as a human being, LeBron James bitching and moaning right on schedule, Nerlens Noel getting Jahlil Okafor out of the paint, and Tom Brady's right arm being ALLEGEDLY racist.

Volume 16 gets DEEP into the debate that is currently sweeping the Nation: Nelly vs. Drake. Tyler and Coley also break down how terrible Pusha T and Malice are at basketball, talk about the greatest dunkers of all time, and delight over the greatest tweeter of all time: Joel Embiid.

In this probably anticipated episode: Coley explains why brownies are, in fact, bad and not good. Nothing else is really discussed, other than Allen Iverson's joining of Ice Cube's 3v3 League, Tony Allen's All Star Teams, Derrick Rose abandoning the Knicks, which players will never win a ring, and Tyler's bourgeoning friendship with Kevin Harlan. But mostly that brownies stink and they stink out loud.

Tyler and Coley ring in the New Year by wearing scarves, going to the gym and drinking water. In terms of the NBA, Ice Cube's retired player 3-on-3 League is heavily broken down, Tyler gives Luke Walton Coach of the Year, and Coley tells everyone why Cavs fans are terrible at being winners. Donate to the Carr Cares Fund For Flint and smash that g-d humanity button.

Tyler and Coley say goodbye to 2016 by naming Song and Album of the Year, as well as MVP and Rookie of the Year for Rap.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from your pals at Mickstape.

Zach Harper (@talkhoops) makes history by becoming the first ever guest on Mickstape. Coley and Tyler make him feel at home by discussing the greatness known as Ricky Davis, figuring out what's wrong with our Wolves, assembling a modern day All Buckets Team, discussing hating players while there's still time, and finding out who is the Eli Manning of the NBA.

On Volume 10, Coley tries to get Tyler in the Christmas Spirit by focusing on the positives of the holiday season like Gucci Mane and Black Mirror. We also talk extensively about the NBA and the WEEEEEEEDUHHH while reminding Reggie Miller to STFU.

Coley and Tyler are back from Thanksgiving with a delightful episode wherein Tyler recounts his night at the Gucci Mane engagement performance where a Hawks game broke out, Tyler picks a CBA team to ride or die with, and the boys give out the first ever Stussy Teammate of the Year Award. Also, we were going to talk about how Jimmy Butler is having a great season that no one cares about but we forgot to talk about it because...well, no one cares about it.

Tyler and Coley are here with the much anticipated Part Deux of Volume 8 wherein Tyler trades Nikola Vucevic to every other team in the NBA, the Nets finally stink as much as we thought they'd stink, Derrick Rose has no idea how to play healthy, and Coley even had a moment of weakness where he didn't hate Chris Paul as much as he usually does. Smash those g-d play, subscribe and download buttons.

As our way to say thank you during this week of giving thanks, we decided to drop part one of our 8th volume a day early for those traveling home for the holiday in need of some in depth conversations about the 12th Anniversary of the Malice at the Palace, Josh Smith's progress in China, Cam'ron Giles' prospects as an NBA commentator, and the feel-good, Netflix original television series Black Mirror.

@ColeyMick and @TylerIAm discuss the important things in life. And by important things, I mean trading NBA superstars, Kentucky Mens Basketball and the motion picture Space Jam. Mostly Space Jam. Happy 20th Birthday, Space Jam.

Miraculously, Coley and Tyler continue to be allowed to have the greatest NBA podcast ever of all time.

@ColeyMick & @TylerIAm's DEBUT episode of a brand new, first class, greatest of all time NBA podcast. This is the JR Smith of podcasts. The 7-time All Star Joe Johnson of podcasts. The motherfucking Karl-Anthony Towns of podcasts.
