Untucked Shorts

Episode 68: Finals Prediction as the 2024-25 Season Ends

Been a long time since our last pod (remember the Dennis Schroeder era?) and so much has happened. The Warriors got Jimmy Butler! Wiggins plays for Miami now, and Luca for the Lakers?!? The Pacers and Thunder are one game from their first ever championship, our favorite Warriors reporter Anthonly Slater has left the Athletic to write for ESPN... and Felix turned 15! In this 20 minute episode we cover a lot of ground, give our final finals prediction and end this season of Untucked Shorts on an upbeat note. Enjoy!

Episode 67: If the Warriors were a Christmas Tree (The Congestion Episode)

In the last 23-minute episode of 2024 your hosts diag nose the W's recent slump (be better!), whether Dennis Schroeder is the answer (sort of, but not really) and talk about what the team needs under their Christmas tree (the ability to make free throws would be a nice present). Speaking of the holidays Felix makes an extended analogy between the team and various ornaments and we compare one player to the Shamus, the helper candle on the Menorah. Casting an eye to '25, the hosts differ on the new gimmicks in store at the All-Star game (Marc likes gimmicks!) and give their (optimistic) hot takes for the rest of season (Hey Draymond, are your ears burning?) Before we sign off for winter vacation we wish the Warriors a glide path to avoiding the play-in and our Untucked faithful a happy holiday and great new year.

Episode 66: Warriors Off to a Great Start

The Warriors are off to a great start this season and Felix and Marc talk about the reasons why. New players making contributions, veterans playing as well as they ever have, and team chemistry riding high. Plus, the Captains hats at Chase for Klay's return with the Mavericks helped a little too. On this 20 minute episode your hosts recount going to see the Warriors play the Wizards in Washington and chance encounters with Warriors play by play and color commentators Bob Fitzgerald and Kalenna Azibuke, and an influential meet up with Anthony Slater of The Athletic's Warrios Plus/Minus podcast too. Analysis, predictions and occasionall digressions in this 20 minute episode.

Episode 65: Warriors Offseason & A Reflection on Klay

It's the first episode of season 4 of Untucked Shorts. Hosts Felix and Marc have moved to Washington D.C., but their heart - and NBA loyalty - is still in San Francisco. In this show we evaluate the summertime moves the Warriors made to upgrade around the edges, predict our starting 5 for the new season and the best case scenarios to improve on the W's play-in game flame out last season. We give props to Curry and Kerr for getting it done in Paris (and at the DNC), and Felix reflects on Klay's departure, and how the Warriors will never be quite the same.

Episode 64: Is Klay Really Going to Go?

The NBA Season is over but there is a lot to talk about! In this 20 minute episode we cover the NBA finals (congratulations Boston), the NBA Draft (welcome to Washington Monsieur Alex Sarr), the start of free agency (we don't want you to go Klay!) and digress to settle a bet, talk about ASMR, Parks and Recreation and the one and only Dutchboy in the Paint: Rik Smits. A big issue on the eve of big change for our beloved Warriors.
