Welcome to the Tank Commander Podcast, hosted by Jeffrey Pidlaoan and Noah Sharp! Just like the players we&#39;ll be covering, this is an up-and-coming NBA and Dynasty Fantasy podcast focusing on the newest players in the NBA, ranging from prospects about to enter the league in the incoming drafts, to the young rookies and sophomores who are making their way and ascending into stardom or at least a long career in the league. We are two dynasty tank commanders with the youngest teams in our league and highest picks in our rookie draft who keep falling for the youth movement. We focus on these young players because we love following their journey and seeing how their tools and abilities help them make it to the next level, or even change the NBA itself. In this podcast, we combine our scouting eyes along with our fantasy skills, to provide ongoing young player coverage throughout the year: from the draft to summer league, to the mid-season doldrums, to the playoffs, and all the way back to draft season over again. Whether it&#39;s the first or second year players adapting to the league and evolving past what anyone could have predicted, to the draft prospects that will make even the most old man fantasy squad want to send their team deep into tank mode, the Tank Commander Podcast is your best bet to get year-round insights on the future of the NBA.

We take a look at one of the most popular names at the top of the 2027 board in Jordan Smith Jr. He will be a Calipari guard at Arkansas and is already a very talented two-way player with defense leading the way for him. What makes him so interesting to us?

We go back to the top of the 2027 draft class and look at its current frontrunner candidate. This time, it&#39;s Kansas-bound Tyran Stokes, who is a versatile offensive weapon at both forward positions. We have a lot of things we like, and his tape looks incredible at the high school level, but there is still so much more to investigate.  00:00 NFL Talk13:03 MLB Talk24:03 Tyran Stokes Overview34:39 Offense49:38 Defense54:54 Player Comps01:01:40 Recommendations Recommendations:Noah - The classic dubstep artist 501, particularly two tracks &#34;Falling Skies&#34; and &#34;Final Cut&#34;Jeffrey - More Batman, this time The Court of Owls Saga Follow us on Twitter/X!Jeffrey: @Podlaoan, and @podlaoan.bsky.socialNoah: @BBallTankNoahOld Man Squad Podcast Network: @OldManSquad**Join us in Discord! https://discord.gg/8Ss9PCYRuR

He is an athletic terror as a combo forward. Will it hold up in tougher competition?

We look at our first real top contender this year! Slovenia and Baskonia&#39;s Stefan Joksimovic looks like an easy Luka clone at first, but digging into his tape a little more reveals some key differences and some real hints at true two-way play.  00:00 Catching up: softball, pickleball, football12:47 Stefan Joksimovic18:20 Offense42:34 Defense51:16 Comps55:11 Recommendations Recommendations:Noah - Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, mockumentary starring Daniel RadcliffeJeffrey - DC&#39;s entire Absolute Batman collection Follow us on Twitter/X!Jeffrey: @Podlaoan, and @podlaoan.bsky.socialNoah: @BBallTankNoahOld Man Squad Podcast Network: @OldManSquad**Join us in Discord! https://discord.gg/8Ss9PCYRuR

A possible two-way Luka? Not quite, but Joksimovic is very interesting indeed

For our second prospect of the season, we go back to one of our unscouted favorites from last year: Baylor-now-St. John&#39;s returning prospect Tounde Yessoufou. He has a big power guard build and playstyle with sky high potential, but also a good roadmap to get even better. He&#39;s an interesting prospect, so tune in to how we diagnose his future outlook. 00:00 Catch up: Softball, Football, Clippers13:14 Defense27:57 Offense45:55 Comps49:51 Recs  Follow us on Twitter/X!Jeffrey: @Podlaoan, and @podlaoan.bsky.socialNoah: @BBallTankNoahOld Man Squad Podcast Network: @OldManSquad**Join us in Discord! https://discord.gg/8Ss9PCYRuR

For our first prospect of the 2027 Draft Cycle, we lock in on Arizona&#39;s returning big Motiejus Krivas, who is a quintessential big who offers pretty much everything you would want out of a center. Does he provide more? We examine, and forecast some developmental paths that would make him a stronger prospect.  00:00 Catch Up/NBA Offseason Talk11:41 Motiejus Krivas42:35 NBA Comps 46:47 Recommendations Recommendations:Noah - The game 007: First LightJeffrey - the Andrew Garfield Spider-Man films Follow us on Twitter/X!Jeffrey: @Podlaoan, and @podlaoan.bsky.socialNoah: @BBallTankNoahOld Man Squad Podcast Network: @OldManSquad**Join us in Discord! https://discord.gg/8Ss9PCYRuR

That&#39;s right, this is still a dynasty fantasy podcast. We review TWO rookie drafts that occurred in our ongoing dynasty leagues: our legendary, long-running home league that spans three continents, and of course the Old Man Squad Dynasty League. The format for both is 12 team 9-cat, two rounds each, followed by waivers during the season. We also discuss the big Jaylen Brown trade.Recommendations: Noah - Trying different food/drink combinations in different countries. Highlighted here: 75% cold brew coffee, 25% ice cold lemonade.

Our last solo prospect for the year is Christian Anderson of Texas Tech. He is a lights out shooter and one of the best, if not the best, in the class. He&#39;s undersized but brings a lot of excellent qualities.

We take our penultimate solo prospect breakdown for the season with Houston freshman stretch-4 Chris Cenac Jr! This was a challenging scout for us, so this episode gets into the nitty gritty nuance that you all know and love from us. It&#39;s a longer scout, but it puts complicated players like Chris Cenac Jr in context with how they would fit in the NBA in both the regular season and the playoffs.  00:00 Intro and Playoffs Talk15:00 Chris Cenac Jr Intro36:02 Offense40:39 Defense51:53 Player Comps01:03:36 Recommendations Recommendations:Noah - The entire Dark Pictures video game anthology, but specifically the latest entry Directive 8020Jeffrey - The Gentleman Bastards book series by Scott Lynch Follow us on Twitter/X!Jeffrey: @Podlaoan, and @podlaoan.bsky.socialNoah: @BBallTankNoahOld Man Squad Podcast Network: @OldManSquad**Join us in Discord! https://discord.gg/8Ss9PCYRuR

Stanford freshman guard Ebuka Okorie brings a lot to the table on BOTH sides of the ball. He is slight in stature at 6&#39;2&#34; but mitigates it with a 6&#39;6&#34; wingspan and underrated strength and hustle.

Find out where exactly those leaps are, and what he may ultimately still need.  Before we even get to Labaron though, we definitely chop it up regarding some topics on the WNBA, the ongoing NBA playoffs, and just some talk on modern hoops in general.

An NBA and Dynasty Fantasy Pod

Welcome to the Tank Commander Podcast, hosted by Jeffrey Pidlaoan and Noah Sharp! Just like the players we'll be covering, this is an up-and-coming NBA and Dynasty Fantasy podcast focusing on the newest players in the NBA, ranging from prospects about to enter the league in the incoming drafts, to the young rookies and sophomores who are making their way and ascending into stardom or at least a long career in the league.

We are two dynasty tank commanders with the youngest teams in our league and highest picks in our rookie draft who keep falling for the youth movement. We focus on these young players because we love following their journey and seeing how their tools and abilities help them make it to the next level, or even change the NBA itself. In this podcast, we combine our scouting eyes along with our fantasy skills, to provide ongoing young player coverage throughout the year: from the draft to summer league, to the mid-season doldrums, to the playoffs, and all the way back to draft season over again.

Whether it's the first or second year players adapting to the league and evolving past what anyone could have predicted, to the draft prospects that will make even the most old man fantasy squad want to send their team deep into tank mode, the Tank Commander Podcast is your best bet to get year-round insights on the future of the NBA.
