Most NBA podcasts are too long. The idea of this one is that we will be into and out of an issue within 10 minutes. In this respect, the structure will be loose, and the ad-hoc release dates definitely will. Hence the name. But this does not mean we won't hit on some analytical depth along the way. Thanks for listening!

episode 7: #7 - The Nuggets have a defensive problem, and it starts in the middle
Be as effusive with your praise of Nikola Jokic as you dare. He has earned it. The uber-Brad Miller is a sport-changing talent, an all-timer, someone with a gravitational effect on the entire league. Be fairly liberal in your appraisal of this year's...

episode 3: #3 - DeAndre Ayton Figured It Out, This Month At Least
For whatever reason, Deandre Ayton has become the barometer by which the Phoenix Suns are often measured. The man who has simultaneously been a big-minute starter and an afterthought, who they did not much value yet whom they gave a maximum salary to,...
episode 2: #2 - If This Is Close To What Tyrese Maxey Will Be, Watch Out
The Philadelphia 76ers drafted Tyrese Maxey with the 21st overall pick in 2020, directly between Precious Achiuwa and Zeke Nnaji. He had averaged 14.0 points, 4.2 assists and 3.9 rebounds per game in a heavy minutes share in his only season at...
