Basketball Insiders podcast is ok if there is nothing else to listen to.

Any other good ones to listen to?

Dunc'ed on is an awesome podcast, those guys know the NBA and do some excellent work. The Lowe Post is also good. Another one I would recommend is the SI Open Floor Podcast.

Sports Illustrated Breakaway is a good one too.

It's like a SERIAL style podcast for the NBA...it does some really deep dives into some NBA nuances.

Im slowly finding Bill "interrupt" Simmons annoying
But he brings in good guests

Dunc'd on is hit or miss....  What a miss by them saying Tatum is an overrated prospect...  Nate Duncan sounds like he is skipping at times

Toucher and Rich are horrible. Only good when they bring in Danny or something.

Felger and Mazz are clowns but sometimes their insights are surprising. Funny factor as well

Shannon and Skip is ok. Funny at times also

Who are you guys listening go these days?

Can't say enough about The Lowe Post. I love Zach Lowe's articles and his guests are always excellent. I sometimes stay away from it when I see a name I don't recognize or a description that looks boring, but then I end up listening at the gym or something and end up staying on the dang exercise bike way longer than I meant to.

The Ringer NBA Show is.... something. Some of it is really good, some is meh. The Ringer in general strays a bit too far into goofy, tongue-in-cheek, social media, and like, stupid non-basketball stuff. But sometimes they have a good conversation and it's frequent enough that it's worth checking in on.

You guys are completely underrating The Basketball Friends
(formerly The Basketball Analogy, formerly The TrueHoop Podcast)..

Especially the wednesday episode with Coach Thorpe.. really awesome Xs and Os breakdown of the game.

But the other days have various characters that definitely make it the funniest basketball podcast, by far.

It's hard to keep up with some of these that change their names and/or formats as people switch companies. I still have The TrueHoop and The Basketball Analogy on my list but didn't realize they are now The Basketball Friends. I'll have to check it out.

I mainly stick with Lowe, Mannix, Woj, The Ringer. I like it when Simmons talks basketball, but his main podcast seems to be mostly celebrities these days and when he wants a dedicated basketball one he does it on the official NBA Ringer (unless it's a big one like a Durant interview).

I do miss the old NBA Today with Russillo.

And of course for the Celtics I'll listen to Celtics Beat and Celtics Stuff Live (one of the first podcasts I ever listened to).

Russilo is going to be putting out standalone NBA pods on his show feed. He's already done two I think.

They're labeled as "RusSolo Pod". You'll have to sort though his show feeds but its back. His latest is on the Cavs struggles. They're short but same sort of feel to his old pods.

Limited Upside, Lowe Post, Locked On Celtics

Lowe Post, Locked on Celtics. I still listen to Bill Simmons but he's barely a basketball podcast.

I also listen to The Starters who aren't much for analysis but they cast a wide net and cover a lot of topics every episode so I feel like I'm getting a sense of the whole league where someone like Lowe tends to go deep on a few topics.
