This week: it’s that time of year again when Doc, Beeso and Adam preview the new season by drafting teams for their annual BALLS Podcast NBA Wins Pool. Listen and enjoy as Australasia's Most Knicks-Positive NBA-Adjacent Podcast™ fights over who ends up having to pick them in the draft. Again.

Also: the benefits of rank homerism, shouts to Radelaide, Craig’s Mowing, secret sounds, repeating the mistakes of the past, friends don’t punch friends in the head, picking on Mabo, building bridges, believing in believing in coaching, how soon is now, big sweaty men getting agitated, Betty Boo, being in shape versus being in a shape, floors versus ceilings, pruning the coaching tree, giving a bit more D, Wemby chat, angry dap, delusional fanbase power rankings, more bounce by the ounce, NBL washed, double dipping in the dunk tank, Leave Ellis, Top Chicken, Laker Gurrrllls, this podcast does not condone or encourage knife crime, #allegedly, this elevator only goes to the basement and someone made an awful mess down there, MVP fatigue, problematic-offs, this has to work or everyone needs new jobs, FIPs, trolling online versus trolling on-court, habitual overs-hitters, the Trae Young of TBP, Chicago Med, lighting up the draft industrial complex, replacement-level competence, sick of winning, ekeing out 40 points and fishing in the portaloo of life.

BALLS and tripping balls are available on their own RSS feeds, as well as being found together on Omny Studio, Spotify and Apple Podcasts (feel free to subscribe, rate and review) - and we welcome your reckons via Twitter, Facebook and email.
