Ep. 189: Southwest Division Preview

Dirk, Yao, Pau, Hugo and Tim. Not necessarily in that order.

The Basketball Jones’ Southwest Division Preview Podcast — Episode 189 (.mp3)

On today’s division preview show, Tas and I breakdown the loaded Southwest Division with Kelly Dwyer from … from … the Internets!

Among other things, we discuss what the Mavs can possibly tweak; realistic expectations for the Grizzlies; whether Peja will ever return to his All-Star glory days; how Adelman’s Princeton offense will work in Houston; and the Spurs off-season mantra. Do enjoy.

(Note: Southeast Division preview, starring Sam Rubenstein from SLAM, drops in a few days. Click here to listen to our Central Division show with Matt Watson.)

    Did I rip on Kamla and not know it? No hate from this end re: Kamla, he knows the game.

    Three takes in and I sound like Gandolfini after a 10k. Yeesh.

    Did I rip on Kamla and not know it?

    I think you did — in jest — once before. But maybe I’m dreaming.

    In my dreams, I’m ripping on Gordon Ramsay:

    “Curry powder on monkfish? You’re ruining the integrity of the fish! YOU PLONKER!”

    Kelly Dwyer back on the Jones and the Spurs all in one. I can’t wait.

    Wow, how are you guys already 11 episodes away from 200. It was not to long ago that I was eagerly waiting for episode 100 to come out.

  6. J.E. Skeets at 3:58 pm on 10.16.2007

    Ah, we just skipped a few 50 or 60 numbers, Matt. It was pretty easy, actually …

    Hey, any idea what we should do for the big Ep. 2-0-0? We’re not really feeling another “best-of” show …

    If you guys made an entire CD of Skeets and Tas scatting over some jazz tracks, I’d spend at least $8 on it. AMERICAN DOLLAZ!

    Pffft, that’s only like $7.75 Canadian.

    SW RANKINGS OF COLDMONEYNESS:

    SPURS - A well-oiled championing mechanism
    NAWLINS - Chris Paul is not to be fucked with
    GRIZZ - FUN
    ROX - I hear the pollution is bad in H-Town
    THE DALLAS MARES - my most hated team in the league to watch, let’s hope they fail miserably and end up like 32-50

  9. MATTO at 5:08 pm on 10.16.2007

    I hear the Grizz will be fun to watch this year. Tas, can you confirm this?

  10. Alan at 6:00 pm on 10.16.2007

    In order for the Grizz to play fast, they might actually want to play some defense this year.

    Hey guys, what’s the title of the song provided by KD at the intro? Groovy!

  12. KD at 2:03 am on 10.17.2007

    “Room 335″ — Larry Carlton
    “Blame It On Cain” — Elvis Costello and some other Mc.
    Some Urge Overkill song off the criminally underrated album “Exit the Dragon.”
    “She’s a Mover” — Big Star
    “Houses of the Holy” — Zeppelin (JD’s choice, solid)
    “Georgia Boy” — Rev. Al Green

  13. KD at 2:03 am on 10.17.2007

    And, as always, THANK YOU JD.

  14. Raskolnikov at 2:51 am on 10.17.2007

    Paul Westerberg and I approve of Big Star.

  15. KD at 3:01 am on 10.17.2007

    Apparently, Paul never traveled far without it.

  16. 10FootBongz at 9:52 am on 10.17.2007

    Someone needs to get Gordon Ramsey and Bill Walton into a broadcasting booth together. That would be wonderful.

  17. JD at 10:10 am on 10.17.2007

    ALWAYS a pleasure KD!
