Love the pod
Excellent podcast. Stein and Haynes have a great dynamic and rapport. They have good hoops analysis but also keep the show light and entertaining. I personally love the stories Chris tells about his rec basketball leagues and his family. Keep up the great work fellas!

SO many ads, limited basketball talk
I gave this pod a chance because I’ve always liked Stein’s work. But it is a tough listen. An unlimited number of ads, Haynes’ irrelevant stories, and the constant Lillard agenda pushing are insufferable. The valuable nuggets of info are few and far between, and Haynes is completely disinterested in the Western Conference. I wanted to like it!

Anti Knicks Agenda
Appreciate the Knicks support w/ the Julius Randle interview. Let’s keep the same energy!

Interesting Duo
I love love love Chris…been following him forever. And Stein is slowly starting to grow on me, hence the one star ding. They are funny together and both bring different basketball knowledge and acumen to the pod, so yeah, one of the first pods I look forward to every week! Chris is so great at player interviews, wish we could get more of that! But all love for these two👍👍

Not worth the time anymore
This podcast is great during transaction season, but even then, the Damian Lillard Chris Haynes reporting saga turned me off to the show. It is great to have easy access to insiders, but not so much when they have an agenda.
I understand though, Chris has to get his bag too.

Keeping it 100
One of my favorite pods in my rotation. Great NBA content and insight. Loved the Marc Spears episode where they shared stores about being on the NBA beat!

Five Stars
Always a great listen, informative and lots of exclusive nuggets of information from both Chris and Marc. They both clearly love the NBA and that comes through in their conversations.

As a Kings fan, it was sick to hear the Davion ep!

Great BB pod
These guys are as plugged in as they get, while being significantly more editorially free & unbiased than traditional ESPN or former Player insiders. Love it! Wish there was a paid feed with no ads though.

Insightful Podcast
Appreciate all the insight from Marc and Chris. An excellent way to keep up with two of the leagues most trusted sources.

Haynes 🤦♂️
Some okay basketball talk, but Haynes overuses the pod to indulge his self-importance.

Had high hopes
Sounds like two people who have never broadcasted just winging it with zero chemistry

Love the insight, but not the breathing into the mic
In the post trade deadline podcast Haynes is breathing heavily into the mic and whistling constantly throughout the show. Very annoying and couldn’t hear a full sentence from Stein without hearing a whistle.
Love the insight though from two guys who are extremely respected around the league.

Great content, production needs work
Marc and Chris are amazing insiders with a lot of great info that you won’t get anywhere else. Big fan of both. But the production could use some work. The latest episode, for example features a lot of high pitched whistling from someone breathing into the mic. I don’t know if these guys don’t have a producer Or audio engineer but that just can’t happen. The intro narrator is also really over the top and does not suit the nature of the podcast. This isn’t Howard stern.
