Taking the Charge with Ben & Dan

by Taking The Charge

Ben & Dan launch an NBA-centric podcast in which they discuss everything basketball from the news, philosophy, tactics, finance and trends. About us: Ben graduated from Cornell University where he studied statistics and applied economics. During the day, he works in market research consulting & data analytics. Ben also writes for his blog (the Libero Project) about European football, basketball and video games. Dan is an avid NBA fan dating back from the early days of Kobe and Shaq. He claims to have Dirk's jumper, Kawhi's defense, Olajuwon's low post game and Vince Carter's athleticism. None of that is true. Dan also graduated from Cornell University with a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering and a master's degree in Operations Research engineering.
