| The Fifth Factor Ep. 8: Statflation & Cam Boozer's Case as the GOAT Modern Era Collegiate Prospect w/ Avi | 11 Mar 2026 | 00:55:28 | |
Episode 8 welcomes Avi (100guaranteed) to the show as we discuss 2 of the hottest topics surrounding NBA draft discourse: statflation & Cam Boozer's standing amongst the greatest prospects of the modern era. How much should we discount production relative to such a hyper-optimized era? Are we becoming numb to excellence? How much of this precocious dominance is fueled by an every-evolving prep scene? Is Cam Boozer Blake Griffin with Steve Nash's brain?

| The Fifth Factor Ep 7: Ebuka Okorie Laughs In the Face of RSCI, Flory Bidunga's Oddball Productivity & Braylon Mullins = Margin Win? | Make The Case w/ Avi | 09 Mar 2026 | 02:01:19 | |
Episode 7 welcomes Avi (100guaranteed) to the show for the 2nd installation of our "Make The Case" series. Each "Make The Case" episode will feature David, Ahmed and a guest (or multiple) providing diametrically opposed viewpoints on some of the more polarizing prospects in the class. Players discussed include: Ebuka Okorie, Braylon Mullins, LaBaron Philon, Flory Bidunga and Meleek Thomas. We weigh Mullins' shooting track record vs his guard anthros & lack of physicality, Ebuka's teflon offensive profile (outside of David's thoughts about his playmaking), Meleek's necessary evolution to play on the ball, Bidunga's chances to beat the odds as an undersized big and just how much credit should be attributed to Philon as the figurehead of the perpetually optimized #OatsBall scheme.
