Acerca de OGs Talkin' Ball

A one-of-a-kind podcast hosted by Portland basketball enthusiasts and self-proclaimed OGs, that’s Old Grandmas to you, Mary Lou and Phyllis. Original Gangstas of the game, these two know hoops!  Each episode, these friends package up all things basketball, kind of like chocolate chip cookies fresh from the oven, before serving up their unique spin on players, coaches, games, fans, trends, books, movies and more. While their focus is on the NBA (their hometown Blazers often get some extra love), they won't hesitate to dive into college or WNBA topics when the moment calls for it.Join Mary Lou and Phyllis for a lively, no-nonsense and surprisingly insightful take on the game they've loved for decades.After all, OGs know ball!

EPISODE 26   FULL COURT PRESS

The OGs shake things up, moving away from their usual three-part format to focus on just two topics this time. First, they break down the closing chapter of the NBA season, reflecting on highlights of playoff storylines and standout performances. Then a pivot to the start of the WNBA season, previewing key teams, fresh faces, and early expectations.  It’s a full-court look at one league wrapping up as another tips off.  SURVIVE AND ADVANCE     Mary Lou and Phyllis break down the transition into the NBA Playoffs highlighting which teams carried momentum forward and which stumbled under pressure. They then shift to the second round, analyzing key matchups, emerging stars, and how injuries and adjustments could shape the path to the conference finals.                                                                                      WNBA TIP-OFF TALK     The OGs discuss the start of the WNBA 30th season, highlighting the league’s growth, rising talent, and increased visibility. They cover early-season highs like strong performances and team identity, along with lows such as injuries and roster challenges. The episode also dives into team projections and a few early surprises—all with a mix of insight and excitement about the season ahead. 🏀🏀🏀With Spring in the air and the summer months coming, the OGs will ease-off weekly recording - about every other week. Later in the summer, a couple of official breaks will happen. 🏀🏀🏀    Thanks for listening and we'll keep you posted!               Follow us on Instagram #OGs Talkin' Ball

Draft Combines for the NBA and WNBA  Mary Lou and Phyllis share the deets about Draft Combines where top prospects showcase their athleticism, skills, and measurements in front of scouts, coaches, and executives from across the leagues.   What’s Next for the W?  The upcoming WNBA season marks the league’s 30th year and its largest expansion yet with new teams like the Portland Fire and Toronto Tempo. The OGs are intrigued and will discuss the Expansion Draft, Draft and upcoming schedule with 44 games starting in May. NBA News and Updates  It seems there’s never a dull moment in the NBA.

With Spring in the air and the summer months coming, the OGs will ease-off weekly recording - maybe every other week. There will be an official break later in the summer.

Episode 23: The Legacy of the WNBA and After March Madness

Episode 23 The Legacy of the WNBA and After March Madness  Part 1 - The OGs dig deep into the  history of the WNBA(W); Part 2 - A discussion about the W’s draft and recent bargaining success; Part 3 - The conversation then moves to what happens to players after the Division I Tournaments.  The W from the Beginning  Mary Lou and Phyllis trace the WNBA’s evolution from its 1997 debut through decades of growth, advocacy, and rising visibility, as players steadily pushed for better pay, working conditions, and respect. This journey culminates in the current collective bargaining agreement (CBA), widely seen as a landmark moment that reflects both the league’s progress and its ongoing fight for equity.                     Draft 101: The WNBA  A look at how the WNBA builds teams through the expansion draft that helps new teams form, the current draft process that brings in new talent, and, of course, free agency that allows veteran players choose where to play. All avenues are very interesting and not exactly the same as the NBA.   After the Madness: What’s Next for College Players?   The OGs break down what might be ahead for the top players from the men’s and women’s Final Four of the NCAA Tournament. Next steps vary widely depending on a player’s goals and eligibility. Some will declare for the NBA or WNBA, while others may enter the transfer portal or return to their college teams to develop further. So many choices!  Follow us on Instagram #OGs Talkin' Ball

Episode 22: March Madness or March Heartbreak?

The OGs take two - episodes about the tourney, that is.  Part 1 is about the NCAA women players and teams and Part 2 about the men players and teams.  In Part 3 the discussion shifts to the NBA - who’s clinched the playoffs and who’s playing in? Part 1 Stars and Sleepers - NCAA Women                                                                   Part 2 Stars and Sleepers - NCAA Men                                                                         Every March since 1939 the NCAA Tourney delivers both the stars that shine under pressure and sleepers who wreck brackets. This year is no different, so far, the stars are steady but the sleepers are lurking.  The OGs talk tourney for the Women and the Men in two separate sessions.                                                                                                                                  Part 3 Locked In or Playing In?                                                                                           Mary Lou and Phyllis discuss the NBA top dogs and surging squads.  The vibe - young teams are loud; old powers are waking up and just a few have it locked. The play-ins and playoffs could be messy, but in a good way.  Follow us on Instagram #OGs Talkin' Ball
