JA MORANT SITUATION + WHO'S ACTUALLY GENERATIONAL!? w/ Pierre of NOTB | Ep. 712
On this episode of Combo’s Court, Combo sits down with Pierre Andresen, co-host of Numbers on the Board and on-air voice for NBC Sports, for an in-depth basketball conversation about one of the hottest topics in the game — the overuse of the word “generational.”
Combo and Pierre break down why that label has lost its meaning, exploring how the media and fan culture have blurred the line between “great” and “once-in-a-lifetime.” The two dive into Victor Wembanyama’s early dominance, Cooper Flagg’s adjustment to the NBA, and what separates real hoopers from highlight players.
They go beyond the headlines to discuss how social media changed player perception, the rise of “bag culture,” and why understanding basketball IQ still matters more than flash. The episode also touches on Pascal Siakam’s underrated impact, the Knicks’ defensive identity under Mike Brown, and Ja Morant’s future in Memphis after a turbulent start.
