LeBron James Announces New Podcast With JJ Redick

LeBron James and JJ Redick team up for a new basketball podcast and the NBA world is excited. Uninterrupted and ThreeFourTwo Productions support the new project. “Mind The Game” will cover all things basketball and fans will get to watch the first episode Tuesday (March 19).

LeBron and the retired NBA sharp-shooter sure grabbed the attention of all fans, including those who try to learn more from the Los Angeles Lakers superstar.

“Consider their podcast, Mind the Game, a celebration of the sport as they discuss the state of the game, dissect X’s and O’s (like they do here), and wax poetic about the game they love,” the podcast’s new social media account wrote alongside the video.

LeBron set up a goal and promised to bring basketball closer to everyone “who truly loves” the game.

“This is for everyone who truly loves our beautiful game,” the four-time NBA champion detailed. “Shout out to @jj_redick for creating this with us. Wait until we add the visuals/clips to go along with it too!”

This podcast is happening at the right time and it’s exactly what new generations need.

“When I do a project, the only thing I think about is whether me and my friends would watch it,” LeBron told Andrew Marchand from The Athletic. “That is definitely the case with ‘Mind the Game.’ Everything doesn’t need to be designed for internet culture and clicks.”

LeBron and Redick team up for the win

It’s interesting to note that LeBron and Redick weren’t chasing any advertising partners. They will focus on the game without any additional game. Basketball talk is their priority now and they will keep it that way for quite some time.

“It’s meant to be a very free-flowing conversation about the sport and about the game,” Redick said. “If you look at it in a very simplistic way, it’s just about basketball.”

Let’s see how this goes. We can already imagine the reaction of LeBron’s doubters. Those people don’t want to see him grow.
