Chibbs!

by Lang Whitaker

As I wrote the other day, we’re nuts around here this week, so much so that I didn’t even have time to watch the USA/Brazil game in the World Championships yesterday. But I did take an hour yesterday so Sekou and I could record a new episode of the Hangtime Podcast for NBA.com.

When we started planning this week’s show, I reached out to a couple of NBA players to get on as guests, but as we’re in the middle of the summer, it seemed like everyone was gone on vacation. Then Adonal Foyle announced his retirement, and we managed to get him on the show. Also, just because we love him, we got the always awesome Kenny “Mr. Chibbs” Anderson on the program. Both guys were lottery picks, both played over a decade in the L, and now they’re both chasing their goals and dreams for their post-playing career.

You can stream the show here…

Or you can download the file here, or get it on iTunes here.

    Ah…that pic of Kenny brings back great memories of my youth. The NJ squad w/Chibbs, DC, Petro, Chris Morris..those were the days.

    really awesome interviews. both super genuine people, but opposite in mannerism. love the insight they gave as ex-NBA players. “PhD’s in basketball” and “I stole money!”

    I loaded up the ipod for work yesterday – I must have just missed it being on itunes. Stupid time zones. Will listen tomorrow.

    @Michael: Yeah, I think it went up this AM.

    Good interview. Kenny Anderson was definitely dropping some knowledge. Glad I listened.

    @ Lang Whitaker: Who on the slam staff is responsible for monitoring the comments?

    Kenny’s stat page makes for crazy reading: http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/a/anderke01.html. Shoot he really bounced around towards the end huh. No wonder it became a chore. I always thought he was a little older during his Boston days – he actually arrived there at age 27. Oh and @Lang: I think Melo probably sits in that 10th to 12th range. Enjoyed the podcast.
