On a hot and fresh new episode of Fastbreak Breakfast, Oliver Maroney (@OMaroneyNBA) joins to discuss sausage patties and unicorns, Ice Cube’s the BIG3 and Dave Joerger’s new look. Oliver is an NBA writer for Dime Magazine and  the host of The BIG3 podcast.

  • Kristaps Porzingis is averaging 30 points per game after his first 10 games, seamlessly transitioning into the unquestioned focus of the Knicks offense. With two blocks and two made three pointers per game, is he demonstrating that he is one of the most versatile NBA players ever? Or just how many caveats need to be added to that statement?
  • Oliver recently published a feature on Joerger detailing the unique path the coach took to the NBA and how that shapes his work in Sacramento. But does he shed any light on any of the topics near and dear to our hearts, namely, how does Joerger decide when to switch between clean-shaven or heavy goatee? And what is the secret behind his recent weight loss and style makeover?
  • Ice Cube’s BIG3 professional 3-on-3 league was a success in year one, what is in store for year two? Does Oliver have any suggestions for improving the product? What rule changes would he like to see? Which player would be his dream addition?
