Deeper than stats...
My vision is to bridge the gap between the die hard sports fan, such as myself, and what I like to call the “Super Bowl” sports fan- those who are engaged in a game for the social aspect, family obligation, or simply because its convenient. I want to show how one’s passion for sport (particularly basketball) is not far off from another’s passion for history, LGBTQ & POC issues, fashion, social justice, pop culture, music, health & wellness, etc. by opening the forum for progressive, upbeat, & necessary conversation.
Welcome to Point Blank Buckets!
After nearly two years away from the pod… WE BACK! And for a fan favorite 2024 version of NBA All-Star Weekend. Tune in to hear our live takes and insights into this season’s festivities… and maybe throwing more shade at the Duke’s Mayo Bowl. 😂 **Be sure to tap in with us and follow Point Blank Buckets on Twitter & Instagram: @point_buckets

RARE FORM.
Beautiful souls- what’s goodie?! It’s March & the start of Women’s History Month!
In the second episode of season three, Chanel and Derek, in more RARE FORM than usual, zoom into the Marvel/ DC Universe- comparing superheroes to basketball superstars before then breaking down their highs & lows of MNBA All-Star Weekend 2022. The duo also introduces yet another new segment- “Put You On Game”- (pun fully intended) as well as of course tapping in to give some self love & drop them dimes with Derek.
Oh and maybe keep some tissues by your side… things get a bit sappy - out of the blue - discussing a classic competition show.
Never a dull moment on PBB!
Be sure to tune in & join the conversation, ya’ll! It’s a fun one!

That Was Then & This Is Now
WE ARE BACK! Happy 2022, Lunar New Year, & start of Black History Month!
In the first episode of the New Year (& on Twosday-2/2/22 no less)… that alignment though… Chanel and Derek dive into examining the post career lives of some of hoop history’s most notable players (for better or worse) as well as what may have contributed to each of their unique journeys. The duo also introduces a new “Self Love” segment, as well as- of course-having a bit of fun bringing additional segments to the PBB lineup, discussing who they would love/despise having over for Sunday dinner, what would these players do as a career if not playing hoops, & more! Oh and uhhhh… Grayson Allen may or may not feel ALL of Derek’s wrath on Droppin’ Dimes!
Be sure to tune in & join the conversation, ya’ll!
