  • Seaniegaga

  • pharmfood

  • veedubthirteen
    Thank you!
    Thank you ET and Andre for the intelligent Black Man conversations. I’m always a little smarter after listening to each episode. Keep going, my brothers!
  • Chil87
    Incredible
    Such a fantastic podcast. Andre and Evan bring basketball and other topics to life with their incredible knowledge and insight. Both of them have amazing interviewing skills and listening to their conversations with guests always brings new learning to your day.
  • geis3234
    Big fan
    Andre Iguodala and Evan Turner are fantastic to listen to in this space. The guests they bring on are first class and the conversations are nothing short of good times and great laughs. Highly recommend everyone take a moment and give these two a listen as it’ll be something you wish you had done earlier.
  • HatingIsAHabit
    my kind of pod!
    this is exactly what sports media is lacking, smart, entertaining, and educational from 2 highly credible individuals… i love it, and this is exactly the type of stuff i bring on my radio show and podcasts, its very validating to hear Dre and ET see things in similar ways as i do…
  • Clutchpoint Lover
    A winning combination
    A SPECTACULAR AND INFORMATIVE PODCAST!! Great questions and honest answers makes for a fascinating, intriguing podcast!!! The only downside—Andre did NOT answer Joe Lacob’s question about coming back next year!!!!! Andre, you advocate honesty and directness. What you ask of others, you need to apply to yourself! You are and have been one of my VERY FAVORITE NBA PLAYERS. Please stay with the Warriors! You were critical to our VICTORY!!
  • EdeTM
    Depth of Game
    Deep analysis of whatever topic they approach. Andre has always been on a higher level of thought then other podcasters, other personalities in general.
  • McBre
    one of the best bball pods out
    refreshing to hear current and former pro’s talk hoops without trying to drive clicks and seek out topics of drama
  • 415dubsfan
    You know what l’m saying?
    ET - please stop asking us this question - it’s annoying
  • theflash2141
    Thoughtful and Entertaining Pod
    Andre and ET are two dope individuals having a good time while dropping gems. I never miss an episode of these two.
  • Rattler305
    Perfect Duo
    Love this show. Wish the episodes were longer but that’s a good thing. Stay consistent with us fellas.
  • B-Rax18
    Congrats Andre!!
    Love the podcast and just want to say congrats man loved watching the team this year
  • Dubsyall66
    After 50 years, I’m finally learning the game
    Consider me your average sports fan. I’ll watch an NBA game, completely clueless as I’ve never played basketball. Yet I’ll sit there and ask “why did they do that?“, or “what were they thinking?” I’ll never ask again, because clearly I don’t know. On the other hand, Evan and Andre break it down in such a way that it’s completely in depth, yet also palatable and understandable to the average fan. Great insight, great references… Sure, I don’t understand them all, but I love that they entertain each other… and completely respectful of the game, the players, and everyone involved. And that’s not limited to the court, but also the mindset off the court and between games. They also use the same formula when delving into other subjects. They lay out the facts, their perspectives, without getting overly preachy or opinionated. I am on the Le Batard network all the time, yet only stumbled across this because I was on a long drive and had exhausted everything else. Now it’s moved right to the front of the Meadowlark lineup. Kudos gentlemen! Keep up the great work.
  • PRamNYC
    LOVE THIS
    These guys are so sharp, insightful and entertaining. Feels like a front row seat to the group chat! Can’t wait to see what all they have in store for us.

  • SpyrosKnicksPanathinaikos
    Excellent

  • AlbuquerqueHerrera
    Thank you men!
    I appreciate the new vantage point you provide.
  • ftlaud876
    Worth the listen. A lot of free game.
    The chemistry that these two guys have on this podcast is unmatched. The insights on matters that’s on and off the court are priceless. Thanks for education, inspiration, motivation and entertainment guys!
  • Beary hungry
    Heard Andre on the Draymond pod and had to follow this
    Great insights and thoughts by both Evan and Andre. Thanks for making great content and can’t wait to hear more.
  • Nopace1
    Best new pod I’ve heard in a long time
    I wasn’t sure the world needed another hoops pod. I’m a fan of The Etc’s, Draymond’s pod, Old Man and the Three, Real Ones, All the Smoke. Point Forward raises the bar significantly. Two episodes in, it’s more candid, thoughtful and insightful about the NBA on and off court, the business, and life. And Evan Turner is very funny.
  • GotzArmyGeneral
    Great show so far keep it up guys
  • RamseyJ92
    Finally
    This podcast was a great listen Andre and ET are having genuine dialogue that bridge the gap for fans to know what a players perspective is like. Love it!
  • AXG24
    Refreshing
    The Point Forward podcast by Andre and Evan is an insightful look into sports…with pockets of useful information from finances, parenting, and much more. Put your ad dollars into this one Footlocker … it’s authentic and Iguodala used to be one of your top employees.

    Man Wanted to Like This
    Listened to these two talk about the reasoning of trade made by a GM that had been fired 2 years ago. 2 YEARS AGO?! Like low level nba knowledge and then they follow up with only real hoppers know. SMH

  • j30f2002
    Point Forward is legit!!
    I love this podcast and excited for more episodes to release. The hosts are very transparent and I love how we are basically allowed in on behind the scenes candid conversations. These men are very smart and dedicated to their families and community! Thankful they decided to get together to bring something like this to a very noisy space! Thanks Evan and Andre, keep up the great work!!!
