Description

On today's episode, Jason tries to make sense of Giannis Antetokounmpo saying that he has absolutely no plans of forcing his way out of Milwaukee on the heels of the top-seeded Bucks getting knocked out of the playoffs earlier than expected for the second year in a row, and explains that Giannis needs to learn that there’s no such thing as loyalty in sports. Does Giannis want to win regular season awards, or does he want to win a championship? If the answer is the latter, then he’ll need to leave Milwaukee. Jason also breaks down the Los Angeles Lakers’ impressive Game 3 victory over the Houston Rockets in which ‘Playoff Rondo’ actually overshadowed ‘Playoff LeBron’ down the stretch. Plus, Super Bowl champion and wine connoisseur Will Blackmon checks in to explain why it's not unusual for star quarterbacks like Aaron Rodgers or Brett Favre not to talk to some of their teammates, why building relationships is key to landing a job in sports (and sports media), how he eventually became the go-to wine supplier to the stars in the NFL, and much more! Finally, Jason helps you put a little money in your pocket with his Wednesday edition of the Best Bet.
