March 4, 2021 - Travonne Edwards
Manage episode 286607660 series 2806309
He's all sorts of busy, doing NBA coverage for The Athletic, hosting shows (Like BOMM) for the Count the Dings Network, and a regular job at Wieden/Kennedy. Tavonne Edwards joins the Happy Hour.
After breaking down his extremely judgmental mattress, we stumble into a Knicks conversation. They're as good as they've been in years, but does that actually make them good? We discuss.
What about the Western Conference? The Lakers are banged up, the Clippers have had Covid-19 protocol issues, the Jazz have lost three of four... who's the best squad? According to Travonne, it was the Lakers before, it's the Lakers now. Why? Superstars. The Lakers have super-elite ones, other teams don't. There's a difference he says between franchise players and All Stars.
What about the All Star Game? Why is it happening? Is the league garnering any goodwill with players by focusing so much on HBCUs, Black owned brands, Black artists and more? Not as much as they'd like, Travonne says.
Finally, we wrap talking about his shows on the BOMM Podcast series, and the new series, "Soul of a Nation."
