On Wednesday’s live episode of “The Fix,” The Jones discuss the hilarious Matt Devlin-Wale feud, Joe Johnson’s game-tying three AND game-winning jumper, the tightening Eastern Conference playoff race, Kenneth Faried tiring out the Celtics, Ty Lawson’s hot shooting, and the Warriors’ six-game losing streak.
All that, plus another Grandma Lana call, popcorn, and an Eric Gordon trade rumor.

Cool corduroy homonym from that clothes horse Trey.
Is there a trade deadline special show this year?
Here’s what Google Trends has to say about Rudy Gay vs Drake vs Wale:
http://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=wale%20rapper%2C%20rudy%20gay%2C%20drake%20rapper&cmpt=q
2009 was the ‘Year of Drake’ and Rudy was the most popular of the 3 when the trade was on the docket. The height of Wale’s popularity is apparently right now. I’ll give the Jones all the credit for that one…
Hahaha Git ‘em Granma Lana!
Every time Vazquez was mentioned during the Bulls-Hornets game last night, I couldn’t help but think of “Greivis Dad’s Quest”. Thank you Tas.
Greatest Episode Title Ever! So Cool!
Did any TBJ fans guess correctly with All-Star event winners?
When Tas says “research shows” what exactly does he mean? haha.
this whole grandma lana episode… you guys should be ashamed of yourselves.
Anyone know the origin of Armadillo Cowboy?
grandma lana call was the best
Trey laughing about black history month not extending anything…glad I wasn’t the only one!
i guess Wale’s fame hasn’t made it to Australia yet Leigh, because i’ve never heard of him either
please, please keep
“it’s a spicy one!!”
My life is way better with it.
I am so happy grandma Lana is not Barack Obama.
Just listening to the pod right now.
I dreamed about Grandma Lana being a dude dressed as a grandma tonight. Creeped me out. Glad to hear that she’s real.
Had my Anthony’s wrong. It wasn’t Anthony Carter; it Anthony Johnson.
Check out the 2007 trade deadline. Three shitty trades involving just four players.
1. TORONTO traded G Fred Jones to PORTLAND for G Juan Dixon
2. PHILADELPHIA traded F/C Alan Henderson to Utah in exchange for each team’s second-round pick
3. DALLAS traded guard Anthony Johnson to ATLANTA for a second-round draft pick
Not a good Trade Deadline Day. Ugh.
“Well, the rappers tend to have the beef.”
You guys have come back from All-Star Weekend refreshed, refocused and at the top of your game. The Fix at its finest.
