great episode as usual, kings. you guys should bring back the For Better Or For Worse segment.
Tobias Poll
Scalabrine is awesome! I'm Dutch and don't even watch NBA, but I love hearing this king ❤️
Gus Chambers
If Payton Pritchard does a nasty cross-over on someone, they could say “looks like someone just got Prytch slapped”
Douglas “Scoop” Reinhardt
Well, Mike Mitchell isn’t coming back on the show
Christopher Chiasson
Are you his agent?
Dan Skisak
Great ep! Maybe Stacey King can use some of the nicknames for Theis now that he is a Chicago Bull. When they pay the price, Theis is Nice! I'm a red headed bulls fan and also like to play basketball, I've been called Scalabrine more than once. It is good to know that he isn't a dork and was a great guest on the Flagrant Ones.

Really great episode, and Scalabrine of course lived up to the hype. Much love to Scal! The white mamba song will be stuck in my head again for the next week
JHolmes
It would be the most hilarious thing if Scalabrine now got the Mr. Slice nickname. Truly the best way to escalate

What a great guy, the Mean, Green Scalabrine Machine is
Sam Landry

Deena
You can’t be handing gold out like this for free, my man
Guy Incognito

Hayes man, more like hater man, papa ginos is the best chain at least

Please please please try to get Marques Johnson as a guest. You all know his son Josiah. Marques is currently with the bucks calling games. The man is willing to give nicknames a chance. We call Thanasis, Giannis’s brother, “Thanasty” because the local barbershop guys call him that. Plus he is an actor. Did movies like white men Can’t jump and blue chips. I know he would kill it with you guys
Christian Harder
Yo scal figuring out the bits and everything. Awesome get
Marc Davis
Here's a free idea for Semi Ojeleye when he's got a hot hand: "It looks like Semi is automatic!"
Chris Stewart
Damn, Scal comes across as such a likeable dude he's just there vibing. Hope he comes back at some point.
The Flagrant Ones
