The FanHouse Podcast: Because bloggers are much sexier on the phone. In Episode 24, Will and Ryan welcome FanHouse's Tom Ziller to talk NBA. The draft lottery offers a temporary respite from the playoffs, and Tom discusses the potential implications for his hometown Sacramento Kings.
The conversation also touches on David Stern, draft lottery conspirator, before continuing with the Malcolm Gladwell HausCast theme. On Monday, we talked to MDS about Gladwell's suggestion that the nothing-to-lose Detroit Lions should have run the no-huddle offense with more frequency since, you know, they had nothing to lose.
Today, Tom responds to some of the proposals born out of the 9,000-word Bill Simmons-Gladwell e-mail exchange, specifically: the merits of the full-on, full-court press, and if the reverse draft order idea makes sense.
And finally, we (and by "we" I mean "me, UNC Tar Heel fan") ask Tom his thoughts on the pro prospects of Ty Lawson and Tyler Hansbrough.

How come all of this, i.e. draft lottery, draft, etc. always takes place in the East? Oh I forgot, it's all about the ALL IMPORTANT EASTERN ESTABLISHMENT. Forget about having any function on the West Coast, they simply do not matter!!
