Tsoj: Jeff Teague says the Jaylen Brown hate makes ZERO sense after being teammates on the Celtics. "They just start making up shit about him. I played on a team with him, he a cool ass n***a. He stays to himself. He still f*ck with everybody, talk to everybody cool... He doesn't do anything wrong, he doesn't hate on nobody."
NBA Courtside: Jeff Teague on Shams Charania report on Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown personal relationship: “Don’t nobody be cool with people like that on a team, bro. I’m going to tell y’all the truth don’t nobody hang with nobody for real, for real, like you might have a couple people that hang but people be work homeboys. I think about all the teammates I was cool with when I was on the team we done had some of them, “You want to do the pod?” They like Nah, I ain’t fu*k with you, I be like damn I used to what the fu*k, it just ain’t my homeboy.” (Via @club520podcast)
“I wasn’t really into podcasting,” Teague says, leaning back, his demeanor completely detached from the typical self-promotional energy of the modern retired athlete. “I was really more of a documentary type listener. I wasn’t really a podcast listener. Like they said, they used to listen to Gillie and Wallo, and [Wells] put me on to them. He put me on to Joe Budden’s podcast a little bit, but I’m not really a podcast listener. Obviously, I watch clips of All the Smoke, Knuckleheads… I’ve seen those clips, but I’m not really a podcast listener.”
However, this aggressive honesty functions smoothly only because of the strict personal boundaries the crew establishes. The second pillar of their code is an absolute refusal to cross the line into a player’s private life. While traditional talking heads and clickbait blogs frequently exploit an athlete’s personal struggles, family dynamics, or off-the-court business for cheap engagement, the 520 family firmly establishes that a man’s personal life is strictly his own business. By keeping the critiques completely bound to the parameters of the basketball court, they protect their locker room currency and maintain deep, functional relationships with active players across the league.

NBA Courtside: Jeff Teague says it’s like Evan Mobley gets a pass every time he play bad: “You know what I mean? We always talk about James Harden and Donovan Mitchell, then Evan Mobley kinda just sneaks by everybody. Be like they got Evan Mobley too. Like, at some point Evan Mobley if these two dudes Donovan Mitchell and James Harden are not having good nights, you on like a max deal you supposed to have a 36 point night, 37 point night. You got the matchup. No disrespect to Tobias but he’s an older player, he’s short. You got the matchup.” (Via @club520podcast )

NBA Courtside: Jeff Teague says Detroit needs to trade for Kevin Durant: “They desperate for another scorer and Kevin Durant is still playing at a high level, that would take so much pressure off Cade and so much pressure off Kevin Durant to do everything. I think it would be an easy fit.”
Averaging 28.9 points, 7.2 rebounds and 5.0 assists, he has carried the team on his back and has been an exemplary leader on and off the court. However, what stands out the most to Teague is not just his numbers but how he goes about things. “I like it because he does things his own way. He’s not the typical NBA guy, for sure,” Teague stated. “He doesn’t do what most NBA players do. He does the complete opposite.” “If it’s raining outside and everybody’s grabbing umbrellas, that ni— running butt naked,” he continued. “If it’s snowing in Boston, he might still have shorts on. He’s just different. He’s got his own way about him.”
Teague said Brown should be getting a lot of shine, especially since he’s in a major market like Boston. However, his individuality is contributing to his lack of recognition. “Jaylen Brown is in Boston, which is a premier basketball market. He should be one of the faces of the league. But because he does everything his own way, people barely talk about him. And honestly, that makes me respect him even more,” Teague commented.
NBA Courtside: Jeff Teague says Derrick Rose was harder to guard than Steph Curry: “I could stay in front of Steph. He might step back and hit a shot. I couldn’t stay in front of Derrick Rose. There’s nothing you could do. You could back all the way up, he’d look at you, and run at you full speed and do a crossover and he’s at the rim” (Via @club520podcast)

Who has the best player podcast? Jeff Teague: 5 Jalen Brunson/Josh Hart: 1 Paul George: 1 Draymond Green: 1 Rudy Gay/Carmelo Anthony: 1 What’s the saying these days — everybody has a podcast? Certainly feels that way in the NBA. This question was meant to measure who, among their peers, the players think has the best pod. But the overwhelming answer was a former colleague.
Prior to the season, much was made about the Rockets' point guard situation given the ACL injury sustained by Fred VanVleet. Thus far, Ime Udoka has shown increased trust in second year guard Reed Sheppard to handle the ball, which has eased those concerns for now. However, recently, former NBA All-Star Jeff Teague took to his Club 520 podcast to drop some advice for Houston on how to get better in that department. “They need to trade for James Harden… Tell James you want him to play like he was in Brooklyn. Be the point guard… Him and [Kevin Durant] being together… They got a real chance,” said Teague.
Dan Patrick: Jeff Teague on his podcast got into a discussion about Joker versus Shaq. How would they do against each other? They were talking about Shaq in Orlando would dominate Joker, but Joker with Shaq after that. Bbecause he's inside outside that he would probably drive Shaq crazy. Reggie Miller: Okay, let me first start saying, are we playing in today's rules or are we playing in Shaq's rules in the 90s, early 2000s? Like, which one do we get to do? Does Shaq get to get it in the post and turn? This was Shaq's favorite move and he got away with it today's game, he wouldn't be able to get away with that. So, which rules are we playing with? Patrick: Okay, if you said, let's play today's rules and I got Shaq at his peak and Joker at his peak. Who you got? Miller: I think Shaq dominates in any era. Let me start by saying that. So it it wouldn't matter. I just think they would put Shaq in a gazillion pick and rolls in today's game and get him out of the paint. Shaq would have to cover more paint. Now, I do agree. Orlando Shaq, who was nimble and skinnier and could run all day, I think he would thrive. I still think the most dominant of Shaq when he was in LA and much bigger, he would still have an effect on the game. How would he do versus Joker? I would love to see… I'm still going with Big Fella. Look, Shaq, he denied me on a lot of occasions.
Jeff Teague: I just figured it out. Jrue Holiday is going to Houston. Jrue Holiday going to Houston. Damn. Hey Jrue, get ready. Get your bags packed, brother. You going to Houston.
