The Open Run With Will Strickland
Episode 234 – Interruptin’ My Kung Fu
“If You’re Going Nowhere In Life, Any Road Will Take You There…”
This bar from Wall $t’s Dear Ol’ Grams (Bless The Dead), uttered to him when he was but a wee lad, set the groundwork for his decision to trail blaze and never path find.
The wise woman’s words came with an additional caveat: don’t allow distraction to derail your destination.
Our special guest this week rides a similar wave as we call on Canadian professional hooper, broadcaster, auteur and podcaster Duane Notice to put his lens on the goingson in The Association’s third week, including watching fellow University of South Carolina Gamecock alum Collin Murray-Boyles on his hometown Raptors, and why the game is in good hands as we check some super freshmen hooping in the NCAA.
We also welcome a Hall of Fame coach to Toronto and send rest in power shouts to a legend of the game.
The younglings it’s gon’ be a movie. If you miss this one, it won’t be cinematic.
