Not In My House (A Basketball Podcast)

Miscellaneous


We’ve got a special treat for all of you hoop heads and TBT fans. For the first time on this show we get to pick the brain of a GM. We are blessed to have Mike Illiano on the podcast today. He is a great basketball mind, writer, GM and truly a historian of the game.Illiano’s path into basketball is very inspiring to us. When you really look at the big picture, this is a guy who didn’t actually play the game but developed a strong passion and love for it and still found his place in basketball. That passion led him to studying and writing about the game and eventually getting involved with the TBT where he had an immediate impact with Team 23, cruising all the way to the Championship game in 2015. We get to learn all about the startup of TBT and how Mike got involved. He shares some great stories about the meaning behind the name Team 23, building a successful roster, former guest Larry Owens, Doug Gottleib, and we get a great idea of just how much the TBT actually means to everyone involved and all of the great causes these teams play for.This summary can’t even begin to describe how much we appreciate Mike Illiano's time. We really get a good idea of what it’s like to see the game through the lens of a GM and we learn all about what makes the TBT such an incredible league. We know that you will have a different view and appreciation for the players and everyone involved in the TBT, the sacrifices they make, and the impact they are having on the game and other leagues across the world.Thank You Mike Illiano!Be sure to support Team 23, the TBT and all of the other teams who are playing for such great causes.Follow Mike and Team 23 on Twitter @team23TBT or on Instagram @team23basketballYou can find this episode on Apple, Spotify or any source for podcasts! Follow us on social media!    Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/notin.myhouse.79            Instagram- @Not_in_my_house_podcast           Twitter - @NOTINMYHOUSEpc
