CJ Miles spent 17 years in the NBA and has stayed around the game in a completely different role. It's hard to put CJ in a box. He writes, he takes photos, and most importantly, he tells stories. Matt and Stak got up with CJ to talk about this new chapter of his life, what it was like being one of the last players to jump straight from high school to the league, and the stories that come with 17 years of NBA experience. We touched on everything from the Utah Jazz to Larry Bird personally recruiting him to the Pacers, to the ongoing debate about which state produces the best basketball players: California or Texas. This one is filled with stories, laughs, and real game on how to transition from being a pro in one world and build something in another.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Larry Miller built Jordan Brand into what it is today. He sat in boardrooms, brokered deals, and helped shape one of the most powerful names in sports history. What most people still don't know is where he came from to get there. At 16, he was convicted of second degree murder. He served four and a half years in prison. That's not the beginning most people picture when they think about the man who ran Jordan Brand. Caron Butler, who walked a similar road before the NBA, joins the conversation. Between the two of them, they cover a lot of ground on what it actually takes to make it out and build something real. This is one of the most important episodes we've done.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

AJ Dybantsa pulled up to the ALL THE SMOKE studio and it was clear from the jump: this kid is different.

But the numbers only tell part of the story. For the first time, Winfield opens up about the years behind the stats: a decade of battling George Steinbrenner that made him miserable during his years in New York.
