The Basketball Jones ‘The Fix’ — Episode 173 (.mp3)
On today’s show, Tas and I join the Kobe trade me/don’t trade me discussions. Was all of just a calculated move to get the Lakers’ off-season ass in gear? How do Kobe’s statements affect his current (and future) teammates? Let’s say LA does trade him: Where could he go? What could they possibly get for him? And much, much more…
Oh, all that, and we manage to sneak in a few words about the Finals-bound Spurs. I think.

Comments (3)No Show: The Internets Are Dead
We think we’re so cool being on the Internet — oh, people can hear us worldwide while we sit here recording in our underwear — and then this shit goes and happens. JD’s Interweb connection is down and out. Y2K, man. Crazy type shit. So, sorry, no show this morning, folks. We’ll see you Monday, though. Enjoy your long weekend, Yankees.
