Lebron James has weighed in on WNBA player Brittney Griner who is currently in a Moscow jail for allegedly carrying vape pen cartridges containing hashish oil through customs. James was critical of the United States saying in part, " Now, how can she feel like America has her back? I would be feeling like, do I even want to go back to America". Yesterday James tweeted this: "My comments on "The Sh...

The Orlando Magic announced that Paolo Banchero is getting the rest of NBA Summer League off. What? After two games? Yup, the top player taken in last month's draft is done for the summer. What a joke! Why the hell do you think fans watch the summer games? So they can watch the top draft picks play! Ridiculous! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On today's podcast I begin by talking about the positive reaction to episode 179 and Ryan in Sactown. The reality is we all need mentors and we all need positive reinforcement as we try and climb the ladder in this business. I tell stories about my early years and those that were instrumental in paving the way for my career. I discuss the impact Marv Albert and Chick Hearn had on my career and wha...

Novak Djokovic has another major under his belt. He won Wimbledon yesterday for the seventh time and now has 21 majors. One more and he will tie Rafael Nadal with 22 which is tops in the sport. However, due to the absurd restrictions in the United States Novak won't be allowed to enter the country. He is unvaccinated and thus can't enter the US. How absurd is this? If you're not vaccinated you can...

Can we please calm down with the hype of NBA Summer League? The buildup for Orlando and Houston was like Alcindor and Hayes for crying out loud. The top pick in the draft Paulo Banchero of the Magic was 5-12 for 17 points and 4 rebounds. Jabari Smith who was taken third by the Rockets had just 10 points on 4-10 shooting and 7 rebounds. I get you need to market the league, but the buildup for these...

My guest on today's episode is a guy who is one of the "clones" as a huge Jim Rome fan. He also is somebody that has followed my career for many years. He recently reached out to me regarding advice on broadcasting. I've always believed in paying it forward. On today's episode we talk about a variety of topics including his 7 year old son Liam who was born autistic. I hope you enjoy this conversat...

The Carolina Panthers were able to acquire Baker Mayfield from the Cleveland Browns for just a 5th round conditional pick! Not only that, but the Browns will pay most of his salary. That is a theft and look for Mayfield to be the guy over Sam Darnold come week one! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It isn't always easy to come up with a rant. Hard to believe, but in the last 24 hours I haven't seen a sports figure do something stupid, or say something stupid. I can't rant on the Kings and their pick of Keegan Murray. The kid looks like a player. I I can't rant on the Thunder and their pick of Chet Holmgren as he looked great in his summer league debut. So today, I talk about something I saw...

Please tell me the video of Kings fans leaving the Chase Center the other night after the Kings won two games was just a spoof. If not get a freaking life would ya please. Only on thing matters regarding summer league. Keegan Murray and only Keegan Murray. Other than that the summer league is worthless if you are a Kings fan. Period! Learn more about your ad choices.

On today's episode I discuss Draymond Green's apology for using the word c**n towards Kendrick Perkins. Draymond said that after speaking with Joe Dumars and Adam Silver he realized he was wrong. Really? It took talking to Dumars and Silver for you to recognize that the word c**n is a racial slur? I then discuss Chris Broussard's comments regarding Toronto. The Fox Sports host said Kevin Durant wo...

Happy 4th everyone! How about Kevin Durant? What a joke! Great player, yes,, but to me he has tarnished his legacy. He won two rings with the Warriors. Big deal! The Warriors had already won a title before KD's arrival and won another after he left. Now he wants out of Brooklyn? How about the Nets say no? How about honoring your contract? Nope, Durant wants to be traded and only wants to play for...

Thank goodness for NBA free agency which begins in a few hours, because there isn't much on the sports calendar to get me excited. I can't wait to watch the Open Championship at St Andrews in a dew weeks, but that's about it. Baseball bores me to death these days and you can have NBA Summer League which lacks excitement other than watching the top draft picks. Wimbledon? Maybe the finals. Wake me...

Kings fans keep asking when is this team going to make the playoffs. The answer to me is pretty simple. As soon as De'Aaron Fox starts performing like a max player. Last season was not good for Fox to say the least. He played in only 59 games...his 3 point shooting was awful at 29% and shot 75% from the line. He also looked disinterested for much of the season. Yes, Fox played better upon the arri...

Draymond Green is an absolute disgrace. He is on a power trip and has a sense of entitlement that is sickening. Over the weekend he called former NBA player and ESPN personality Kendrick Perkins a c##n. That's right a c##n. That's the "new" media Green is talking about? What a joke! And where is NBA Commissioner Adam Silver? It's time he comes out and addresses some of these disturbing comments fr...
