All Star Edition: Talking the Warriors Win, Born Ready, and More Donuts!

Ben and Jordan are back for a fantastic duet. This episode starts with breaking down some of the highs and lows of the Pistons' recent stretch of games. Without even mentioning the Gallinari shot; Ben talks about Pistons big win against the Warriors! That was of course on the night the team retired Ben Wallace's jersey and the guys briefly talk about the ceremony and the atmosphere for that game. Then the focus is on the Pistons' performance in close games as the All Star game and trade deadline creep closer...

Then it's time to talk about the All Star game! Ben and Jordan run through the starters and reserves in each conference, debating the few differences in their ballots. Ben favors the numbers and his picks give the two a chance to talk about how they decided on their All Stars. Ben prefers to look at advanced stats, while Jordan is definitely applying more of an eye test. Those differences make for some interesting conversations on players like Danilo Gallinari and DeMar DeRozan. 

Finally, it's more trade talk. Jordan opens the mailbag for a questions about the 8th Grader... Born Ready... Lieutenant Lance Stephenson! To the Piston? Then, a little more dialog on more trade rumors including future restricted free agents like Donatas Montiejunas.
