The Blow-By: The NBA Playoffs Are Here and Magic Johnson is Out
We're back to our weekly schedule after taking a week-long break to get our lives in order. In that time, the playoffs have started and the Lakers are falling further and further into disarray with every passing minute. We recap the first weekend of the playoffs, give our takes on Magic Johnson leaving the Lakers' front office, and look forward to the remaining round 1 matchups. Thanks for listening!
Kentucky is a Football School Anyway
Drew, Billy, and Ben are all together in the same place for the first time in a month. Unfortunately, Kentucky lost yesterday so it looks like they should spend more time apart. Final Four matchups are set and we're gearing up for what will likely be the lowest ratings a Final Four will have had in years. In other news, the NBA Playoffs start soon!

The Blow-By previews the Sweet 16 and LaMelo is the new face of Big Baller Brand
We are deep into the madness of March, Billy is back from Spring Break, Ben is MIA (last seen in Las Vegas), and Louisville has made an unsurprisingly early exit. In our preview of the Sweet 16 we welcome on Chynna Hibbitts, a graduate of the University of Louisville formerly involved with their athletics department. The three of us discuss this past weekend’s games and look forward to the Sweet 16. In our only NBA segment of the week, we look back at news that Lonzo Ball may be leaving Big Baller Brand for greener pastures.
