Tony and Pete break down the Hawks’ rough 1-2 start to non-conference play and dive into what’s gone wrong, including double losses in the A10 and why the conference needs to ditch these lower-tier teams like GW and UMass. Plus, they discuss the Hawks’ new red room/practice space, preview upcoming games, and tackle the NBA’s three-point problem with Pete’s unique take and Tony’s controversial fixes for basketball.

Later, they touch on Phil Martelli’s legacy (while making it clear they don’t care… or do they?), Tony’s recap of the Mummers Parade, and Big Cat’s “Mr. Chicago” reveal—raising the age-old question: What does it really mean to be a fan?

All that, and more unfiltered opinions, because that’s what we do. Sorry, Phil.
