  • Welcome to the first episode of Mind the Game with LeBron James and JJ Redick. We are really excited to share this podcast where we examine and celebrate the game of basketball. In this first episode we ask ourselves a very simple question, "What makes a great basketball player?" That question launches us into discussions about the The Los Lakers recent comeback win against the Los Angeles Clippers, philosophical questions about basketball IQ and we dive into concepts like "Thumb Down" and "Floppy" and "Horns Chest." We also talk about this year's leap of Jayson Tatum and The Boston Celtics and what makes them so dangerous. And finally, we dive into the influence of Stephen Curry.
    We really hope you enjoy our show. Be sure to subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. And if you'd like to see some of the visuals referenced in this episode, please subscribe to Mind the Game on UA-cam at / @mindthegame

      Yeah, the community has become very toxic full of kids badmouthing everyone and everything while not understanding nor appreciating the game. It's almost pointless to go into any comment section on NBA related posts. I believe most fans only care about the game and couldn't care less about the drama, while the ones messing everything for the rest of us are really just a loud minority

      This is actually breathtaking we true basketball fans deserve this. We’ve been force to listen hot takes culture for to long. I enjoyed this no narrative, no agenda, no comparison, no clickbait, no tearing down one another. Just pure basketball take I’ve learned a lot that I’ve never heard on any basketball platform. Thank you JJ and bron.

      That's the reason why LeBron is sitting there with him specifically: he's a student of the game, he has no problem calling out bullshit when he hears it, and he has no problem being quiet and taking notes when something interesting is being said in front of him. You can bet there isn't a sport journalist in the world that wouldn't have wanted to be in JJ's place, but he is there with JJ for a reason.
