Talkin Hoops with Kev Luke

All of these guys are Hall of Famers and brought multiple championships to their individual Organizations but which 10 guys made the top 5 list ??? Tune in

After 22 nice and long seasons the legendary and high flyer Vince Carter calls it a career sadly with the untimely arrival of the coronavirus so today we appreciate him and what he gave to the game of basketball. We also go into the chance of James Harden possibly becoming one of the greatest players to never win a championship ring and how his window is getting smaller and smaller by the month. E...

Mikey Williams is one of the top players in the nation and in the class of 2023 and he put out a tweet saying that going to an HBCU wouldn’t be such a bad idea and that sparked a lot of conversation and I truly think it’s time that some of the top going African American players across the nation should definitely start looking harder into attending an HBCU especially if you’re that good and are NB...

The League will officially play its first regular season games on the last day of July and begin training camps in early July and I am happy to announce we will be crowing an NBA Champion in the year of 2020!!!

Black Lives Matter and so does everybody else’s lives.

The Bucks are a very good team but they aren’t what they make it look like and their playoff runs the past few years have shown me that. Giannis and Khris Middleton are good but their surrounding core needs a lot of help and not just 3 point shooting. Also, USC transfer and Florida native Elijah Weaver has announced his commitment to Dayton and the Flyer lead by Head Coach Anthony Grant.

Saturday May 23rd we lost yet another meaningful and impactful person in our game of basketball in a man who will never be forgotten in legendary and soon to be Hall of Famer Coach Eddie Sutton, may he rest in paradise. Also is it time to bring out the phrase “Free Devin Booker ? Because he’s been in the league for half of a decade and hasn’t even been able to see the playoffs unless it’s from his...

Rest in paradise to one of the greatest coaches in NBA history coach Jerry Sloan. The entire NBA community will mourn yet remember the great things he gave us on and off the court. Also, the Brooklyn Nets are trying to acquire a 3rd star to go with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving and at the top of their list is Bradley Beal but I think there might just be a better option out there for them.

Today I had to feed into some player comparisons because I just had to get them off of my mental. The first is one that not a lot of people talk about but the conversation needs to be had. 2 of the best up and coming players in the association in Toronto’s Pascal Siakam and Miami’s Bam Adebayo. The other two players are the best point guards in the league in the Babyfaced assassin Steph Curry and...

Go Green !!!!!!

With The Last Dance doc just recently wrapping up there has been much conversation on MJ vs Bron or MJ vs Kobe and even MJ’s best Bulls teams matched up against the best team of all time. So I decided to breakdown the matchup between the 1996-97 Bulls vs the KD lead Golden State Warriors of 2017-18. Also, Coach Penny Hardaway is due for much success in Year 3 at his alma mater of Memphis.

Thank you to Jordan Hehir and his entire team and every single person that had input on this amazing documentary and one of the best yet. Episodes 9 & 10 gave us a little bit of everything from the Bulls playoff battles with Reggie Miller and the Pacers to their two NBA Finals matchups with the Utah Jazz and we even got a chance to go back and look at Steve Kerr’s background. All in all this was o...

Coach Painter and the Boilermakers of Purdue lost two very important players for what they have been doing for the past few seasons and earlier this week he took some shots on a radio show at them so I break it down. Also, the Instagram famous Mac McClung announced that he will withdraw from the 2020 NBA Draft and not head back to Georgetown but transfer from the Big East program and look for a ne...

I love Luka Dončić and he is going to go down as a great player and a hall of famer one day but I sincerely believe that Kristaps Porzingis is not the Robin to Luka’s Batman. Also, I go into why LaMelo could really be drafted no. 1 overall and why teams should be trying to make that happen.

Today we look back at all of the major conference player of the years awards for the 2019-2020 season to show them love because their seasons were sadly cut short. Then I project who I believe will win conference player of the year in each major conference next season as we look ahead.

Episodes 7 & 8 of The Last Dance gave us a lot from how MJ dealt with his father’s tragic death, how he made the transition from the court to the baseball diamond and the 1996 Finals. Also, I talk about how sadly Zion Williamson is going through a legal battle with a marketing company where pretty much the communication was simply just bad.

The Heat have one of thee most lethal offense in the league headlined by Jimmy Butler and the barrage of shooters that they have and they are almost unguardable in their schemes plus you throw in one of if not the most versatile big men in the league and Bam Adebayo and you have the perfect remedy for an defense. I had to speak my peace on why Rondo is not washed because Lakers fans swear he’s so...

One of the greatest point guards of all time turns 35 years young today so I decided to show him some love because a lot of “fans” only show him hate nowadays. Also, Aaron Henry from my Michigan State Spartans had already announced his decision to test the NBA Draft waters late last month and just recently signed with an NCAA certified agency that will leave the door open if he decides to go back...

As the great Charles Barkley would say GINOBILLLLLLIIIIIIIIIII. Plus Jay Wright has turned Villanova into a college basketball powerhouse and as long as he’s at the helm of the Big East program they will be good to go for years to come.

Episodes 5 and 6 of the Last Dance took a deep dive into MJ signing with Nike over Adidas, his time at the 1992 Olympics playing for the Dream Team and his great run to his first 3-peat after beating the Phoenix Suns in the 1993 NBA Finals. Also, since we were on the topic of Charles Barkley I had to address his little feud with Draymond Green and why Draymond is a much better player than a lot of...

Happy birthday to one of the greatest point guards of all time in Isiah “Zeke” Thomas. Wake Forest has picked their new head man in charge. Plus I talk about how the NBA season should resume amongst this Pandemic.

These 4 players were destined to have really good summers and to earn even more offers than they have acquired but sadly with the coronavirus striking the globe they won’t get their chance to prove that on the EYBL circuit this summer so I decided to show each of them some love. Also, Elijah Weaver will transfer from USC and become one of the most sought after transfer on the market and once he be...

Daishen Nix will skip college and join Jalen Green and Isaiah Todd and join the NBA’s new G-League Select Team based out of LA. Also, these 5 freshmen will have great expectations put in them in their first year of college but I think each will leave up and even exceed the hype.

Episodes 3 & 4 of The Last Dance were great and gave us some much needed insight into the backgrounds of Dennis Rodman and Phil Jackson plus the relationship between the Bulls and the Bad Boy Pistons so let’s talk about it. Also, Roy Williams and UNC were able to land yet another big time recruit out of the state of Minnesota in Kerwin Walton.

Greg Brown has announced he will stay home and play next season for his hometown school in the Texas Longhorns under Coach Shaka Smart. Also, the legendary Coach Steve Smith recruited two of the most dynamic players in the 2022 class and they will be absolute movie next year for the Warriors.
