Send us a Text Message.The Dallas Mavericks were back in the home stadium but suffered the same fate as the first two games in Boston. Kyrie Irving played his best game of the series thus far but his backcourt partner Luka Doncic was off the reservation and spent a lot of time flopping on drives and trying to draw fouls. He ended up fouling out himself with four minutes left and the game still not determined. He hurt his team more than helped, even though he was the second leading scorer. Boston got great contributions from the two Js. Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown had 31 points and 30 points respectfully.  They had support from the other starters and the bench. The Celtics didn't miss a beat even with Kristaps Porzingis sidelined with a rare foot injury. The Celtics are on the verge of a sweep. The only question is can they finish in Dallas, or are they going home to try again at TD Garden?It was announced today that  after losing out on UCONN coach Danny Hurley, NBA analyst, JJ Redick will be interviewed this weekend for the vacant Lakers head coaching position. Good pick?IG: freshlymintz15TikTok: @freshmint545Music: Intro/Outro - "The Mint"by Yuneer GainzSeason 2 Is Here!!

Send us a Text Message.The Dallas Mavericks started game 2 with more focus and a Luka midrange jumper. Kyrie had 8 first quarter points, and PJ Washington was more involved as well, for a 13-6 lead, time out Boston. Once the Celtics regrouped they began to right the ship and they were on their way to another sold first quarter. Kristaps Porzingis scored 8 points in the first and intimidated on defense.  Jason Tatum was driving and dishing and Jrue Holiday was cutting and swishing. Jason Tatum was one rebound short of a triple double, 18 points, 9 rebounds and a healthy 12 assists. The Celtics struggled from three point range or we would have seen another 18 point win. Both teams had trouble from beyond the arc, Kyrie was silent after the strong first quarter. Boston relied on their defensive pressure to stay in command in the second half.  Luka Doncic had a triple double but his teammates were not a threat to score.  Final Boston 105 - Dallas 98 Game 3 is Wednesday, June 12, 2024Dan Hurley announced Monday June 10, 2024 that he will stay at the University of Connecticut and go for the three-peat.IG: freshlymintz15TikTok: @freshmint545Music: Intro/Outro - "The Mint"by Yuneer GainzSeason 2 Is Here!!

Send us a Text Message.The Celtics came out in Game 1 on fire and ended the first quarter up 17 points.  The Mavericks were overwhelmed by the Celtics defense, two players, Porzingis and Brown had three blocks each. Dallas know as the new "Lob City" didn't get a lob until mid fourth quarter. The Mavs made a galant 29-9 run in the third quarter  cutting the Cs lead to 8 points. The Celtics regrouped and made a run of their own, stretching the lead back out to 16.  They never seemed to really be challenged by the Mavericks the rest of the night. Dallas star Kyrie Irving had shooting difficulties most of the night going 6-19 from the field and 0-5 from three point range, finishing with 12 points. You can expect a better game from Kyrie in the next game. Dallas' other star Luka Doncic scored 30 points but he had to work hard to get these points.

Send us a Text Message.The Boston Celtics have gone through the season as the number one seed. They have not faltered and continue to steamroll into the NBA Finals. The Dallas Mavericks are a talented team that has fallen short annually but they have made some additions that have, along with their stars Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving have them in position to upset the storied franchise in Boston.

Send us a Text Message.This episode we review the hit movie Wakanda Forever. We previously did the trailer review and we had a chance to go out and see the film. There was a lot to unpack with the death of Chadwick Boseman and the decision to not recast the character of T'Challa, the Black Panther and king of Wakanda. A rewrite had to be viable to keep Marvel fans engaged in the new storyline. Also there was the introduction of the anti-hero, Namor and the Talocan nation. Incorporating the characters death into the story was risky and an emotional rollercoaster throughout the film. Could it be a success? Will we like the direction Ryan Coogler took the film? Please listen in to the episode and enjoy our take on Wakanda Forever...Hosts: Josh Mintz; Kev MintzMusic: Lions Den - AGiLE SOCiETYSeason 2 Is Here!!

Send us a Text Message.In this episode we look at the teaser trailer and the official trailer for the new Marvel movie Wakanda Forever - Black Panther 2. The loss of Chadwick Boseman the star of the first Black Panther movie changed the dynamic of this next chapter in the Marvel Universe. A lot of people petitioned to have the character recast and continue with the storyline. Others, which include the director and the producers want to move slowly in making a decision on the character. This movie serves as a tribute to the actor and star of the first Black Panther film. Josh Mint and I have a hard time disagreeing on the content of the trailers though we may disagree about recasting. First things first, see the film, Wakanda Forever - Black Panther 2 in theaters November 11, 2022. Intro and Outro - Lions Den by AGiLE SOCiETYSeason 2 Is Here!!

Send us a Text Message.The 2022 NBA Draft took place at the Barclay's Center in Brooklyn, New York. Some well known college stars were on hand and some unknown commodities were in the green room, looking to make a name for themselves. The top three picks were supposedly set in stone, but ended up in a blender as the draft commenced. We give our take on who we thought were the top draft picks for this year. Not the whole draft, just who we liked. Of course we don't like the same guys but check it out for yourself.Season 2 Is Here!!

Send us a Text Message.We had a delay in recording our episode, so we combined game 5 back in San Francisco where the Warriors took control of the series, and Game 6 where the Dubs closed it out. Draymond Green was back to his old self, being aggressive and Andrew Wiggins continued to make a name for himself with double-doubles in the last two games. Wiggins got some consideration for the Finals MVP... NOT!! Not on Curry's watch.

Send us a Text Message.The Golden State Warriors are down 2-1 to the Boston Celtics and have to be in desperation mode as to not go down 3-1. The Warriors will be in serious trouble if that happens. Steph Curry finished with 43 points (14/26 FGs  7/14 3FGs) and 10 rebounds, but was it enough? Draymond Green seems to be depending on his podcast to share his narrative but is still so-so on the court in Boston. Jayson Tatum had 23 points and Jaylen Brown 21 points and 6 rebounds, and the Celtics have had good fourth quarters. How did it end? You know we didn't agree on how it went down.Season 2 Is Here!!

Send us a Text Message.We recap Game 3 of the NBA Finals and Boston takes control of the series. Draymond Green is met with a vicious, raucous crowd at TD Garden in Boston. He looked out of sorts and didn't have the same aggressiveness we saw in Game 2. Draymond is a fellow podcaster and some say he was distracted by still religiously doing episodes on the road and responding to critics in real time. The Celtics responded in Game 3 with three players, ( Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart) with 20+ points, 5+ rebounds, and 5+ assists. They now have a 2-1 lead with Game 4 at home in Boston. We still don't agree on the next game, but what's new.Season 2 Is Here!!
