In a dramatic but little-known incident in team history, in January of 1978 back up point guard Brian Taylor (who galvonized the Nuggets second unit) didn't show up for one game. In the New York Times the very next day Taylor announced that he was now a free agent. The affect on the Nuggets was profound and was the first in a series of events that eventually derailed the 1970's Golden Era of the Nuggets. Jeff talks about its affect and how the team responded ... or didn't respond. Here's Jeff's

CSG Podcast ·

2023/03/01

On the latest Mortcast Jeff talks about how player agencies shape coverage at ESPN through influence. The original sin was tying player max deals to All NBA voting or MVP.

CSG Podcast ·

2023/01/11

With the seeming inability for NBA teams to defend and increasing offensive dominance in the league, Jeff talks about the concept of hand checking. Why over the course of 26 years (from 1979-2005) the league made repeated attempts to curb it and finally made it a strict penalty only after The Malice at the Palace early in the 04-05 season. While this undoubtedly helped out offenses ... it' also made it almost impossible to guard the perimiter on defense. On the latest Mortcast Jeff makes the
