On today’s episode, Jason discusses why these NBA Finals  are lacking the buzz you’d expect heading into a pivotal Game 5 between the Boston Celtics and the Dallas Mavericks, what – if anything – we can take for the Mavs’ blowout win in Game 4, Angel Reese’s flagrant foul on Caitlin Clark that got the social media world buzzing on Sunday, whether Clark has eclipsed LeBron James and Aaron Rodgers as the most polarizing athlete in America, and how Clark has become so ‘controversial’ without ever actually doing or saying anything herself that one would consider to be controversial.

On today’s episode, Jason discusses the Jacksonville Jaguars’ decision to make Trevor Lawrence the highest paid quarterback in NFL history in terms of average annual history, why despite average overall statistics the Jags may have had no choice but to give Lawrence the bag and whether T-Law is better than anybody in the next crop of NFL quarterbacks looking to break the bank (Dak Prescott, Tua Tagovailoa and Jordan Love). Finally, J-Mac closes the show with a very quick betting preview of Game 4 of the NBA Finals between the Boston Celtics and the Dallas Mavericks.

On today’s episode, Jason discusses the latest reports following Dan Hurley’s decision to decline an offer to become the next head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers and why it’s fair to say that there’s a Cold War brewing between the Lakers front office and LeBron James/Klutch Sports. Later, J-Mac hits us with Best Bets for Game 3 of the NBA Finals, including how you should handicap the uncertainty surrounding Kristaps Porzingis’ ankle injury, the Dallas Mavericks’ inability to get anybody going outside of Luka Doncic and whether or not the Boston Celtics should be considered one of the greatest teams in NBA history.

On today’s episode, Jason discusses Dan Hurley’s controversial decision to spurn the Los Angeles Lakers and return to coach at UConn, the narrative that Hurley and ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski used the Lakers as leverage to get more money from the Huskies and whether the club will pivot back to JJ Redick to fill their head coaching vacancy. Later, J-Mac shares a wild Instagram direct message exchange he had with Kevin Durant and wonders aloud if KD is privately jealous that he’s no longer at the forefront of NBA conversations these days.
