Let's Be Real Sports Ep 121 - Westbrook’s Birthday Wish!!!
In this episode, we discuss NBA trade talk and rumors. It’s funny because the season just ended, but with a tentative start date of Dec. 22nd, things have to get into order….FAST!!! The biggest rumor is that of the Houston Rockets. The tandem of MVPs does not like the direction the franchise is heading in, and because of that one MVP wants to be dealt with. The question is though, “with such an albatross of a contract, who would be willing to take that salary on?” We break it down and discuss the options, as well as other rumors that are in the pipeline.

LBRS Ep 93 - The Knick's Debacle
Welcome to another episode of Let’s Be Real. In this episode, we discuss the Knicks debacle of the Spike Lee incident. Called “Gate Gate.” This happens to be another blunder in which the Knicks have continued to do so for two decades. This is nothing new for a severely meager franchise. Most likely, the worst franchise over the past two decades. We take a look at the blunders over the years and try to paint a picture to understand the mediocrity of the New York Knicks.

Let's Be Real Sportscast Episode 2: "Why you always lying!?!"
The NFL season is now a quarter done. Their's still plenty to talk about, but with the calendar shifting from September to October, we eagerly wait for the start of the NBA season. Some of our favorite players are hoping for a successful run at the Larry O'Brien trophy. While others are more concerned about their future contracts, and what their value will be on the open market. Others, are either delusional about what their team can achieve this upcoming season, or calling out reporters. This NBA season certainly should be an entertaining one.
