Mickstape

It's a Friday. There's a new Thug tape out. Gucci Mane is an accomplished author. And you have a brand new Mickstape for your ear holes. It simply does not get much better than that. Kevin Durant's leaving comments on Youtube, Stephen Jackson is roasting Kevin Durant for acting out on the world wide web, Future and Cher are doing fuego GAP commercials. The world is in a weird place right now to say the very least. Me and Tyler hit on about 12 win total over/unders just for shits and giggles because we can and like to help you make money in the future. We also debuted a new segment that isn't named in the show but I'm making the executive decision to name right here and now: Tyler Rants About Luka Doncic Being Overhyped For Approximately Three (3) Minutes. Enjoy. Catch y'all on Tuesday.

With only one episode left in the third season of the HBO hit series "Ballers," they did the unthinkable - the Dolphins fired GM Larry Siefert. Coley and Tyler memorialize this great man and all of his endeavors, but not until they hit on all of the big topics of the weekend - like Tyler discovering Early Earl Hebner's Twitter account, Yogi Berra being the original Tweeter, the internet slobbering all over Luka Doncic's weak dunk, football continuing to be bad, and Tyler drops an unexpected bomb on Coley to end the episode. Oh yeah, Kyrie hates on LeBron on live television and Kevin Durant's burner social media accounts are parsed through with a fine-toothed comb.

To kick off the show, Young And Happy's Rone joins us to get mad, nude and red on the web about ESPN's Top 100 Player Rankings. Mostly because they make no sense but also mostly because they're bad and actually not good. After that hour of civil, polite, discourse, NBATV's Sekou Smith joins the program to break down his court-side view of the Malice At The Palace, watching Rasheed Wallace play in high school, T-Mac being the last true unicorn, and a whole lot more. Don't worry, it's not all basketball talk today, as Coley and Tyler found time to argue about whether or not corn is good for a solid 10 minutes in the middle.

*yelling emoji profile face* KANE IS IN THE BUILDING! 36 minutes of talking about the 24-minute episode of Ballers from Sunday night including at LEAST 5 minutes about Larry Seifert's enunciation of Jim Bob Cooter. We then stick with actual football being garbage to start the season and why Lamar Jackson is the best QB in the Nation right now. During the ad reads we break down how ridiculous life in America was in the 1950s for reasons I still don't understand before moving on to just how injured Isaiah Thomas' hip truly is. Tony Allen's signing with the New Orleans Pelicans broke while we were recording so we touch on their soon-to-be high profile offense before questioning what exactly certain people see in Nikola Jokic that made him shoot up the rankings this summer.

Straight out of Joey Bada$$ clique, Nyck Caution drops by to talk about the future of his Knicks, LeBron vs. Kobe, how Westbrook and Paul George will mesh on the Thunder, and the responsibility of being a New York rapper. Before he joins, Tyler talks about why he absolutely will not be watching the new season of BoJack Horseman and why he remains unexcited about the upcoming NFL season. Coley rubs it in Tyler's face that he met Jon Taffer today, because Coley is a bad person. Not as bad a person as that sentient lard of curdled cottage cheese Jason Whitlock. But a bad person nevertheless.

CHARLES GREEN! No days off for Mickstape as there was plenty to discuss in the world of the hit HBO series "Ballers" including, but not limited to, Ricky Jerrett punching a frail rich white kid directly in the face, Charles Green vying for the Chargers GM job and Eddie George's cameo from the clouds. Also, Kyrie's finally actually a Celtic. Why are the Cavs trying to trade the Nets pick immediately? Why on Earth would the Pelicans trade Boogie now? But first: college football and why it's still bad. And, also, finally: LaVar Ball is going to take down the NCAA.

Dave Dameshek of the NFL.com's Dave Dameshek Football Program joined us to preview the 2017 NFL season. That's true, he did join us to do that. But instead, we talked about: condiments, football games that happened anywhere from seven to 35 years ago, the best & worst uniforms in sports, Game of Thrones, waffles, how awful rock/paper/scissors is as a game, and whether or not cereal is a soup. You know, the actual important things in life.

Volume 28 is named Volume 28 because any other name would simply be unjust. We covered all of the topics - Mayweather/McGregor, Kobe Bryant's weird cryptic challenges to random Nike spokespeople, Lil Uzi Vert's new album and VMA award for Song of the Summer, the Cavs/Celtics trade dilemma, and, of course, a full Ballers recap. You're welcome and we love you.

THE CAVS TRADED KYRIE? TO THE CELTICS? FOR ISAIAH THOMAS? AND JAE CROWDER? AND THE BROOKLYN PICK? IN REAL LIFE? WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?

Spencer Strasmore's penis is as broken as Ricky Jerret's brain. As broken as Larry Siefert's relationship with his head coach. As broken as Vernon Littlefield's tiny dick and also his brain. That's right folks, it's your weekly* Ballers recap. Also, we marvel at just how athletic NBA players actually are and roast the Lakers for being so dumb to get caught tampering. *Sometimes weekly. Most of the time we forget to do it. Not this time though. Somehow we did 30 minutes of talking about a show that's barely 30 minutes in length. Truly remarkable when you really think about it.

*KANE IS IN THE BUILDING* That's right folks, it's heavy Ballers talk returning to the show after approximately an hour and 15 minutes about mindless, nonsensical chatter covering everything from Lil B and Pee Wee Longway's new albums to Marvin Bagley's decision to reclassify and, also, Tyler and Coley's personal Top 10 lists to be simpatico with Dahntay Jones. But we understand, you're only here for the Ballers talk. Will Spence get the Raiders to Vegas? Does Reggie understand $40 mil is more than $200,000? How much CTE does Ricky have exactly? And why, oh WHY, does Dule Hill talk like that?

Manager of Player Likeness at EA Sports @emesola joins us to talk about the return of NBA Live. We go over some of our all time favorite games, the risks of Live not producing a game in 2017, all the while Tyler and Coley throw out suggestions as to what they would like to see in future installments of Live. But first - we went super viral and someone stole our shirt. Quite a show. Quite a show, indeed.

NBA Champion and member of the historic 2003 Draft Class Dahntay Jones sits down for an hour long, in depth, candid conversation about the current state of the NBA, the Cavs last three trips to the NBA Finals, his top 10 players in the League right now, the current Kyrie conundrum, and - of course - some JR Smith stories. We also teach Dave what light skinned means.

Coley recounts his night at the Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock show at Radio City Music Hall. Tyler breaks down that bum Jaylen Brown's performance during the NBA Africa game. Kyrie or Isaiah? It hard to say. John Wall & Stephen Jackson Instagrams are absolute must follows. The Timberwolves. That's all. The Timberwolves. Michael Porter Jr. and Marvin Bagley III are the future. OVO Fest,,, what is it. Jay Cutler. Lmao. Welcome back everybody!

Jared Carrabis of the Starting 9 Show joins Coley and Tyler to do a deep dive on preposterous Tony Gwynn stats. Adrian Beltre's Hall of Fame credibility is broken down, Babe Ruth is thoroughly besmirched, and Pedro Martinez is properly praised. Many people are saying that a basketball show shouldn't be talking about Tony Gwynn for an hour and a half. But also, many people forget that Tony Gwynn is one of the most accomplished basketball players in San Diego State Aztecs' history. Really makes you think, doesn't it.
