Peach Basket and a Dream

Aaron Lippincott

In 1891, James Naismith created basketball as a way for athletes to stay active in the winter months between the baseball and football seasons. The first game was super raw, much like this podcast, and used literal peach baskets on poles to form the "hoop". With nothing but a peach basket and a dream, the wonderful sport of basketball was born.Similarly, with nothing but a microphone and way too many opinions, this podcast was born.In this space, we cover basketball in terms of numbers, but more

Send us a text Holy. Been sooo long. Sorry! I had to deal with my own trade deadline of sorts around the same time as the NBA. Peach Basket headquarters had to be moved, but we are set up in our new home now and ready to talk ball. Please bare with me on the audio as I get used to the new digs. The meat of the episode is spent discussing these four upcoming play-in games. I sneak a little trade opinion in there too. Oh and I took a minute or two to say goodbye to each of the bottom 10 ...

Get to know the format in this episode before getting caught up on the first weekend of games. Fair warning: our format conversation leads to a discussion of free throws and there is SOME math involved. I promise you can handle it. Numbers are our friends. I also couldn't help but make a super long distance prediction about the upcoming WNBA season. You can call it bol...

Even if it was many weeks ago, it means a lot and that's where our conversation starts today. This episode is about the penis-havers. A good chunk spent talking about rookies, followed by a discussion of other season long awards like CotY, DPoY MVP, MIP, 6thP, and ClutchP.Another episode will follow soon (before the weekend...

That's also why this episode was delayed a bit.We briefly touch on some coaches that were hired and Plum pulling out of Unrivalled and then turn our attention completely to the expansion draft.I go team by team and try to predict who will be protected and who will be drafted. There are a lot of factors at work here that I simply cannot predict and I doubt that I will get many things right, BUT I HAD ...

Start off with some Raptors discussion, focused primarily on the overlap with IQ and the development of Poeltl without "expanding" his game. Couple stats for the Pistons and Jazz that illustrate the value of knowing your players' strengths and highlighting them with your style of play.Next we get into some rookie talk. Plain and simple, Jared McCain has put up some numbers but they hav...

There's a little Storm controversy to discuss and we also give a brief introduction to Unrivaled which will start in January.On the MNBA front, we use some stats to discuss Gradey Dick, Cade Cunningham, Peyton Pritchard, The Houston Rockets, and more.

Send us a textI know it's been a while, but just to put a bow on the season we return to game 5 and discuss some of the controversy surrounding the officiating. In other W news, coaches continue to lose their jobs. It's neither surprising nor all that upsetting, but still worth discussing a bit. Finally, the meat of the episode is spent setting a baseline baseline baseline for all 30 teams in the Men's National Basketball Association. Let's see how long I can keep the MNBA joke goin...

I maintain that the Liberty win it all this year but provide a blueprint for how Minnesota could possibly make it interesting and take advantage of the emotional context for these finals. We spend a little time at the end reacting to the season-long award winners. No real arguments here. Happy to recognize all award winners for their seasons, but we throw a few more names in ...

2024/10/05

Send us a textWell, after 4 sweeps in the first round and 0 road wins we've got a game 4 in both semi-finals series' and road teams are 2-4. Will we see a Game 5? Or two? Tanisha Wright lost her job with the Atlanta Dream after 3 years. Not saying they won't find someone better or enjoy more team success with a different coach, but I have reason to believe that this move has more to do with the play of Rhyne Howard (and her lack of development) than anything else.Finally, we have some cl...

Apologies to all my "Basketeers" (let's make it a thing)We start by wrapping up the first round and then roll right into predictions for what should be a much more competitive second round. Curt Miller and Teresa Weatherspoon both lost their jobs recently. We take some educated guesses as to why and who I think could/should be next. Finally, we...

We may not have been recording lately but we have been paying attention. With that in mind, we touch on all 12 teams here as a sort of season wrap-up with a focus on the last couple weeks.

Send us a Text Message.Been about a week so there's plenty to discuss in the W. Trying something a little different with the recaps and taking more of a team focused perspective rather than just going through the games chronologically. Would love to hear what you think.On that note, we did have a listener write in a response to the Rose MVP segment and so our "men's spot" in this episode covers that response. Despite an entire week since our last episode, nobody has been able to solve th...
