Summary

He really is a "Wise" guy! Mike Wise shares his perspective and work on what he sees in the league today. How the NBA and other sports have changed with outside influence on what used to be the norm. We'll touch on Demarcus Cousins, Adam SIlver, Mark Cuban to name a few. National Anthem or no National Anthem at games? Is there a "right" or correct answer to all the racial influence in the NBA today? It's a very interesting conversation that is impacting us all. I think you're going to both enjoy and appreciate it.
