On today's episode, Jason kicks things off with a little story time related to his Saturday morning FOX Sports Radio show. The path to radio, television and podcast glory wasn't linear, to say the least. Let's just hope that whoever takes over the Saturday show cares about it as much as Jason did for the past 6 years. Later, The Athletic NBA insider Joe Vardon swings by to discuss his viral back-and-forth with Gregg Popovich following Team USA Basketball's loss to Australia, the idea that Popovich might not be the right coach for Team USA, how the decision to value playmaking and shooting on the roster over size and rebounding could come back to bite them as we get deeper into the tournament, why the pressure to get things back on track should fall mostly on Kevin Durant and Damian Lillard, what the impending arrivals of Jrue Holiday, Khris Middleton and Devin Booker mean for the rest of the roster moving forward, which teams could cause them problems in the medal round, and much more!
