I react to Austin Rivers' comments about highlight culture and the state of basketball. I also talk about how he personally benefited from highlight culture himself. Also, an update on Jonquel Jones and her quest to be a WNBA marketing icon. Finally, I break down the rant that cost Ed Reed his job at Bethune-Cookman. Should he have handled it like THIS current coach?
