Take A Picture May 24, 2018

Show notes

Segment 1. Is Kyle Korver a better player than Carmelo Anthony. No, this is the hottest of sports opinions. Melo has been marginalized what we heard during his exit interview was not just the frustration of the season, it's the frustration of career that has only proved fruitful in money. Anthony is not worth 28 million, how motivated is he to have a good season next year?

Segment 2. NFL owners screw up with this National Anthem policy. I don't like any rule that infringes on freedom of speech.

Show notes

Segment 1. What will happen this offseason with the Thunder? July first at the stroke of midnight PG agrees to a deal with LAL, Presti, wanting to work fast, then comes to an agreement with Jerami Grant, Carmelo Anthony and Presti are at an impasse, but Melo won't budge on the 28 million he is owed. Melo accepts 20 million and leaves for Sacramento. Josh Huestis on learning the news that Fred Katz is now covering the Boston Celtics agrees to take less than he can get with the Thunder and inks with C's just to troll Katz for 3 more years. OKC needing a small forward somehow convince Trevor Ariza to ink a one year deal to come to OKC and give up a chance to play for an NBA championship. Russ, Adams, Roberson, Arizia, Grant. Presti unable to pull off a trade for Marcus Smart, comes to terms with Raymond Felton for another one year deal. And in the best singing of the whole offseason, Enes Kanter comes back to OKC..

Segment 2. Why LBJ has become boring. Russell Westbrook, GSW, Harden and the Bucks have all become more fun to talk about. We like drama in our sports, we know what LBJ is going to do during every game.

ReLoad May 17, 2018

Segment 3. Bucks get a new coach. JR Smith not fined for his shove on Al Horford, how much of the chippiness carries over to tonight's game?

A Day At The Races May 16, 2018

Show notes

Segment 1. How difficult will be to get sports gambling in Oklahoma? What is a realistic timetable? How I would set it up.

Segment 2. The Thunder need a guy like Marcus Smart coming off the bench. He has one more year on his deal with the Celtics and he is a 13 million dollar cap hit. Celtics are proving to be a much better team than the Cavs. LBJ is doing it all on his own and this series will be lucky to go back to Boston.

Segment 3. WCF tonight the Rockets need to take a page out of the Celtics playbook and get physical with the with Warriors. Jami Gertz at the NBA draft lottery.

Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants May 15, 2018

Show notes

Segment 1. GSW reminds me of the Lakers from the 80's except they are more hungry. The Lakers were worn out after beating the Pistons in 1988 and the Celtics in 1987. Don't get that sense from GSW; the grind doesn't seem to get to the Warriors. What is the OKC comparison? People will say Orlando, but OKC is its own thing.

Segment 2. NBA Draft Lottery tonight, where will Tre Young go? Have seen him as high as 5th no lower than 8th. SCOUTS will allow states other than Nevada to bet on sports; Marc Cuban says it will double the value of teams will double, will owners like Clay Bennett be more likely to sell? OKC has only the 53rd pick in this year's draft.

Segment 3. Adam Silver threatened by a man who wants to play in the NBA. Goodbye Fred Katz we knew ye well.
