Descripción

Barry Bonds is one of the most feared hitters in baseball history — 688 intentional walks, a single-season home run record that still stands, and a statistical page on Baseball Reference that's roughly half bold letters. He spent 15 years as the face of a franchise that was, in a lot of ways, his family's team before it was even his. And when he left, the Giants didn't try to replace him. They couldn't. And that turned out to be exactly the right approach. Featuring sportswriter and Hall of Fame voter John Shea of the San Francisco Standard. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Steve Nash & Mike D'Antoni

In the mid-2000s, the Phoenix Suns were doing something nobody had ever seen before. They ran a high-tempo, small-ball offense so good that teams literally didn't know how to prepare for it. Steve Nash and Mike D'Antoni. Three division titles in a row. And yet, for all of that, they never won a ring. This is the story of how a franchise that had everything--a generational system, a Hall of Fame coach, a two-time MVP point guard--managed to talk themselves out of believing in it. From a trade that made everybody go "wait, what?" to a coach getting fired while Shaq was busy dancing with the Jabbawockeez, this is the Phoenix Suns: a team that caught lightning in a bottle and then couldn't stop poking holes in it. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
