Hang Time Podcast (Episode 226) Back Together Again

HANG TIME HEADQUARTERS It took a while, nearly two months, but the crew is back together again. And just in time for the latest Game of the Century on Super Bowl eve (Thunder visiting the Warriors), a vintage effort from Kobe Bean Bryant and next week's All-Star extravaganza in Toronto. That's right, The Hang Time Podcast crew is reunited this week to discuss, debate and drill down on the hottest topics around the league and yes, that means the elusive Rick Fox has finally been located. He's been busy the past couple of months doing prep work for the All-Star Game's visit to his native Toronto (where he swears we're going to be on the VIP list at Drakes restaurant and every other hot spot throughout All-Star Weekend). We needed the entire crew to sort out the mess in Phoenix (Earl Watson taking over for Jeff Hornacek), to address the rumors that Kevin Durant could be headed to join Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors in free agency, the state of the Lakers (and their precocious rookie D'Angelo Russell, who is caught in the middle of a tug of war between his coach Byron Scott and the man who trained him in the lead up to the Draft, Clippers' analyst Don MacLean), the new-look Cleveland Cavaliers under Tyronn Lue (and the new super friends LeBron James, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love) and so much more. some wicked resistance from the champs, who shouldn't have to do anything else to convince the remaining non-believers that luck had nothing to do with their championship run last season. Crazy season (the NBA trade deadline) is near, so you'll have to forgive us for diving in on so many different topics. But it's been so rare this season that we've been at full strength that we simply could not resist. Check it all out on Episode 226 of The Hang Time Podcast where the crew gets back together again.
