Описание

The FIBA Basketball World Cup "Naismith Trophy" was placed right in front of us. Gloves required. Gold shining. Names of champions engraved forever. #FIBAWC Let It Fly was handpicked to feature it. That’s not luck. That’s culture. Because representing the flag hits different. Club basketball is business. National team basketball is identity. The trophy wasn’t just gold. It was a mirror reflecting everything we experienced wearing the jersey. You never really stop being Gilas. And maybe that’s why it felt at home on our table. 🎙️ Let It Fly. Real players. Real culture. Real conversations. ____ Join us on your favorite platform! 💬 Discord: https://discord.gg/4m3b8zbr7A 🖼️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/letitflypodcast/ ____ 🦄 Get 100 free credits when you use our link: https://bit.ly/JoinDFLetItFly 0:00 – Welcome to a Special Episode of Let It Fly 0:30 – “We Made a Trade” (No Gabe Today) 1:05 – Introducing the Naismith Trophy 1:40 – How Did Let It Fly Get the Trophy?! 2:10 – The History of the Naismith Trophy (1950 Origins) 3:00 – Is James Naismith Canadian or American? 4:05 – Trophy Redesign + First PH Appearance Story 4:45 – The Umbrella Story (Protecting the Trophy in the Rain) 5:05 – Germany, 2023 & The FIBA World Cup Context 5:40 – Hosting the World Cup at Araneta: Career Highlight 6:10 – Team USA Staying at Shangri-La. 6:45 – Cold Plunge with Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson & Austin Reaves 7:15 – “My Nephew Thinks You’re the GOAT” Story 7:50 – Jordan Clarkson Going Berserk at Araneta 8:30 – Experiencing the Game from the Crowd (Upper A Madness) 9:00 – Wearing the Gilas Jersey: What It Really Means 9:40 – Being a World Cup Reserve: Best Seats in the House 10:15 – Gabe Norwood’s Iconic Dunk on Scola 10:50 – Living the “Rockstar Gilas” Life in Spain 11:40 – Jimmy Alapag Putting the World on Notice 12:10 – Building Gilas Chemistry vs Club Team Chemistry 13:00 – Gilas 1: The Young Core Era 13:45 – Being the “Kuya” to Future Stars 14:20 – Mark Barroca’s Competitive Fire 15:00 – Marshall Lassiter’s Evoluti
