On today’s podcast, Skeets, Tas, and friends look back at the first half of the NBA season. What’s been the biggest surprise? How about the biggest disappointment? Who are the MVP, coach, rook, and sixth man of the first half? And what’ll be something (or someone, at least) to watch in the second half of this truncated season?

All that, plus Leigh’s “Tweet of the Weak,” “The Pun-Gun Game,” and much, much more. (And after you listen, make sure to check out our All-Star 2012 predictions.)
