Episode 3: Lynx Collapse, NBA Training Camp & Predictions, PLUS St. Thomas looking for tourney bid

In this episode host Steve Hartman welcomes the first guest on the Splash City Basketball Podcast as his buddy Tate provides his thoughts on the Lynx collapsing (1:28), both on the scoreboard and in keeping their cool. Then they dive into NBA training camps (14:07) to discuss teams with the most pressure. Is it the Timberwolves trying to get over the Western Conference Final hump, or other teams (21:56) including the Thunder looking to repeat? In the East (33:15) is this the year the Knicks get back to the Finals? It's anyone's guess with key players hurt and rising stars still rising. Steve and Tate also look at some win totals projected for key NBA teams (39:10). Finally, we'll jump back into the college scene (49:20). Steve breaks down the 10 best teams heading into the preseason with a Minnesotan on the roster. And then we look at the St. Thomas Tommies (53:02) as they enter their first year of NCAA tourney eligibility. What do they have in common with the 2008-2009 NDSU Bison?  Find out now on the Splash City Basketball Podcast !
