    LeBron Joins The 76ers | Dodgers Chase Skubal | Warriors Need A Move

    LeBron James is a Philadelphia 76er, the Warriors still need to upgrade their roster, and the Dodgers are one week away from deciding whether Tarik Skubal is worth the farm. This week Big Ben and K Winn break down the LeBron to Philly move, the Golden State trade that actually makes sense, and the biggest names on the MLB deadline board. We start with the five grill masters problem in Philly. LeBron, Joel Embiid, Jaylen Brown, Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe in one starting five, and nobody in that locker room volunteering to defer. K Winn lays out why Cleveland was the plan until Jaylen Brown got traded. Big Ben makes the case that this is a media market play, five titles in four cities. Then we tell Mike Dunleavy exactly what to do: trade for Trey Murphy III, pair him with Yaxel Lendeborg, and stop chasing veterans on the back nine. We hit Skubal, Mason Miller and the 46-46 Padres, whether Dante Moore and Oregon can win a College Football Natty, and Arizona State launches a new influencer degree.

    LeBron Free Agency | USA vs Belgium | Money or Legacy?

    LeBron James is still a free agent and the entire NBA is holding its breath. The Golden State Warriors cleared cap space, Draymond Green walked away from $27.7 million, the Miami Heat acquired Giannis, and the Cleveland Cavaliers want another homecoming. This week on Big Ben & K Winn, we unpack the biggest question in basketball: does LeBron chase a fifth ring on a team-friendly deal, or protect the bag in his 24th season? We also break down Draymond Green's opt-out and what it actually means and if he could leave the Warriors. Genius or reckless? Plus, USA is out of the FIFA World Cup after getting bounced by Belgium. The fireworks were spectacular. We tell you which ones actually mattered. Caught up and fired up in half an hour. Wherever you're tuning in from, welcome home. Big Ben & K Winn.

    LeBron Leaving LA? | Steph Curry's Last Run | Team USA World Cup Knockout Round

    LeBron James is a free agent and the question is, what’s next? Lakers, Warriors, Cavs or Heat? We break down his options and pick a destination where we think he lands. Steph Curry is 38 years old and the Warriors are a middle team in the West. Draymond declined his player option. The front office is targeting Trey Murphy III, LeBron,, and Anfernee Simons with the mid-level exception. We make the call on which move actually extends Steph's window and which ones are Band-Aids on a roster that needs surgery. Plus Ja Morant is headed to Portland and we tell you what that means for the Trail Blazers. And Team USA faces Bosnia-Herzegovina Wednesday night in the World Cup knockout round at Levi's Stadium in the Bay Area. Full squad. Pulisic healthy. We give you the pick. Two West Coast sports fans.

    Jalen Brunson Over Luka? | FIFA Team USA is a Mid Major | Brendan Sorsby NFL Draft

    Jalen Brunson dropped 45 points to close out the Knicks' first championship since 1973 and we're saying it out loud: Jalen Brunson over Luka Doncic. Not a debate. A verdict. We close the NBA season breaking down where the San Antonio Spurs go from here, including the Dylan Harper starter conversation, Wemby's subpar Q4 average in the playoffs, and what to do with Mitch Johnson. Plus: Brendan Sorsby just walked out of college football's biggest scandal and straight into the NFL supplemental draft. We grade every landing spot.  And the USA Men's National Team opened the World Cup 4-1 on home soil... but are they a real contender or a mid-major with a ceiling problem?  Subscribe and follow @bigbenkwinn wherever you listen.   CHAPTERS: 0:00 Jalen Brunson over Luka 5:00 Spurs Struggles on Coach or Wemby? 8:42 Dylan Harper Should Be Closing Games for the Spurs 15:13 FIFA World Cup: Team USA Is A Mid Major 22:46 Brendan Sorsby Gambled and Won 33:01 Need A Fall Guy   🔔 Subscribe and hit the bell so you never miss an episode.  🎙️ Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, and iHeart Radio.   Click to subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@bigbenkwinn_      Follow us on Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/bigbenkwinn_    https://www.tiktok.com/@bigbenkwinn_  https://x.com/bigbenkwinn_?s=21  https://www.threads.net/@bigbenkwinn_  https://discord.gg/BCqZduTD    Got feedback?
