“Completely unwilling to admit when he was wrong. Instead gives reasons that strain credulity. His coverage of last year’s finals was galling. Not because of his opinion but because he said things that were inaccurate and nonsensical.”

“Anthony Edwards edit — I wouldn’t but wonder if Ric would let his daughter date him. Considering he literally has been caught paying almost a million in “reproductive rights” for multiple women. Maybe that’s “Gen Z” or a failure of the previous “Gens”.

“Ric Bucher, your last two podcasts have been great. The NBA has been great, but your addition of NFL, Soccer and other current topics was great. Please continue to commentate on current topics of interest. Thanks”

I liked hearing you less scripted and more candid today. I welcome this for cutting edge news that needs a reaction...”Read full review »

“some of the best, most considered and conscientious takes on the nba, it’s fandom, media and culture, offered up alongside a passionate, appealingly probing and refreshingly dialogical point-of-view and/or-departure. huzzah ric you are true jazzman.”

I loved Giannis’ quote about the bucks playing to win a championship vs Miami playing to beat the...”Read full review »

He brought up points that I keep screaming at my TV that no one seems to understand. I hope Ric continues to put out great content like that and...”Read full review »

“Love your take. However, i think you may have missed a consideration in your analysis: Lebron might very well be aiming not particularly at the acquisition of a better supporting cast... it's the narrative that's important here. For that is the main stuff of legacy: forming the...”Read full review »

“Ric compared Trump to Hitler !!!! Ric you have gone too far on that one. You gave some reasoning , but Hitler was guilty of genocide. I think I have listened to my last Ric podcast. And, no…. I would not vote for Trump in 2024. Never , but I still can’t ever agree with the comparison Ric has...”Read full review »

“Ric Bucher, is one of, if not the most, fair and balanced sports analysts out there apart when most of the suits have an angle.
this podcast was mentioned on another podcast on youtube. immediately googled it and found it here. Will listen to back episodes.”

“Even if a topic has nothing to do with LeBron, he will somehow, someway nudge his name into it. Lacking context in most of his views such as his recent take on the Lakers losing in the first round without mentioning their two best players were injured and ultimately one didn’t finish the series,...”Read full review »

“This Oct 6 2021 regarding Kyrie Irving’s vaccine “hesitancy” has to be the single worst take of all-time. Hard to believe anybody can be this stupid. What’s next? Perhaps a dissertation defending Kyrie’s belief that the earth is flat? Unfollow this garbage.”
