Shattered #7 is revisiting all the more recent goings-on and tragedy. The KP trade to clear all that cap space, Knicks fans being convinced that KD and Kyrie were coming _and_ dreaming on a #1 lottery pick to land Zion. Didn’t quite play out that way I was listening to a lot of basketball podcasts at this time, but I had forgotten many of the details. It’s fun reliving it.

They talk quite a bit about The Decision in 2010, the team’s sales pitch to LeBron, etc. What a mess I expect they’ll touch on KD and Kyrie going to Brooklyn in a later episode. They’re working chronologically. I’m into the mid-2010’s now. I think they’ll be getting into all the Porzingis stuff next episode.

I’m about halfway through Shattered and it’s great. Chuck D is an awesome narrator. Dolan is a pretty terrible owner overall. I more or less knew the Knicks have been a shitshow for a long time now, but it’s pretty fascinating to hear all the details.

I went to the Toronto Indy once when I was a kid. Pretty incredible to see/hear those cars up close. Watching a race in-person wasn't that much fun though. Definitely seems like a sport that is better suited to watching on TV so you can actually see what's going on around the whole track. Cool experience though. My dad used to own a tire shop and he had close contacts at Goodyear. They hooked us up with some pretty awesome tickets to sports events over the years.

Did Lee watch Drive to Survive? I have also noticed more F1 talk lately. Drive to Survive seems to be the gateway drug for many, but I guess even people who didn't watch Drive to Survive are getting sucked into F1 because their friends are getting into it. Everybody's doing it! You want to be cool, right? Time to get into F1 Like Ma said though, it's pretty incredible what these drivers do. The more I learn/hear about it, the more it fascinates me. You could spend hours and hours just reading about tires (which I happen to find interesting, but maybe I'm just a sicko ) I still find it hard to envision myself watching an entire race, but you never know When I saw this thread title, I had to think long and hard about what "Docus" meant I eventually clued in that it was short for documentaries, but at first it threw me... I was thinking "docus" as in a word (I'd never heard of) that rhymes with "focus" or "locus"...

I’ve been meaning to watch the MJ thing forever now… The Last Dance? Shattered also sounds like a really interesting podcast docu series about the Knicks. It was produced by The Athletic. I’ve never gone down the F1 rabbit hole… maybe someday…
