Description

Where film breakdown meets data analysis in real basketball conversations. XJ and Geoff challenge conventional wisdom about what drives winning, how players create value, and what the game is actually showing us. We bring behavioral science and strategic thinking to NBA analysis, testing theories against what we see on the court. New podcast episodes drop weekly.
