OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
NBA All-Star, Hall of Famer with the legendary Redeem Team and all-time lefty hooper Michael Redd joins the show to talk about playing against Kobe Bryant and later learning from him in their secret workouts away from the team as members of the Redeem Team in 2008. Redd looks back on his days with the Milwaukee Bucks, including his rookie season with Ray Allen, Glen Robinson, Tim Thomas, Sam Cassell and more as they made a run to the Eastern Conference Finals. Redd also talks about his favorite players from the current era, the hardest players he ever had to guard and picks his all-time best left-handed players.
Then, Matt and Jerry draft their all-time lefty starting 5, with a sixth man off the bench to boot.
