'NBA, Mate!' is UK's show about NBA basketball where we discuss the most exciting sports league in the world and everything to do with it.

In the first 'big meal', long-form that I am releasing, I spoke with Manish Kumar - my flatmate and passionate NBA and Kobe Bryant fan - about the top 10 NBA players right now and of all time lists that I published earlier this week (you can find links for them underneath).

First we spoke about the top players in the NBA right now (03:43 to 48:10) and whether LeBron still deserves to be in the top 4, is Nikola Jokic underrated by the majority of NBA fans and media and can we put Jason Tatum over Kevin Durant because of their direct encounter in the 2022 playoffs.

Then we moved on to the all time list (48:10 to 1:26:42) where we discussed what consitutes a great legacy, does offence or defence matter more and is Wilt actually (slightly) overrated as a scorer when context is provided. We finished by discussing the Patrick Beverley move to the LA Lakers (1:26:42 to end), how will that affect the team and do the Lakers have a shot at the championship this year.

If you want to send me any piece of feedback, please do it to denis.vi@outlook.com. Very soon I will create channels for the podcast which will enable more discussion and conversations between you and me.

Thanks so much for listening and until next time!
