Ben Johns Is Out. Anna Leigh Waters Is Wobbling. Now What?
About this episode
The episode discusses the recent developments in pickleball, focusing on player performances and team strategies during the MLP playoffs.
The singles specialist era may have died this weekend. Dreambreakers, lineup decisions, and one jaw-dropping run of 17 straight points exposed what actually wins in MLP playoffs right now: rhythm, confidence, and clutch under pressure. Zane and Nico break down the wildest playoff weekend yet, including the LA Mad Drops' Dreambreaker collapse, Ben Johns' stunning 0-2 day and 17-point skid, and why Sam Parker's spot in the lineup became the center of a bigger debate about whether pure singles skill still matters in team pickleball. They also dig into Dallas Flash's surge, the trade that sent Tyra Black for Danni Townsend, and whether Dallas just proved they won the deal in real time. 👕 Check out the new performance apparel line from Six Zero: https://bit.ly/3T9NaDM 💊 Marek Health → https://www.marekdiagnostics.com | Code: THEDINK for 10% off 🏓 Donate to the Solomon Boltes Memorial Pickleball Courts: https://www.gofundme.com/f/building-solomon-boltes-memorial-pickleball-courts 📩 Subscribe to our free newsletter for everything that matters in pickleball: https://subscribe.thedinkpickleball.com #Pickleball #PickleballPodcast #mlp #ppa ------------------ Like the ep?
