On today's episode, Jason and Super Producer Rob G (Robert Guerra) swings by to discuss their expectations moving forward for Russell Westbrook and the Los Angeles Lakers. All signs point to Russ getting traded sooner than later, but will it even really matter for the Lakers given how poorly constructed the rest of the roster is? Later, the guys take Aaron Rodgers to task for (once again) publicly throwing his Green Bay Packers teammates under the bus for their on-field miscues. Rodgers has continuously drawn a line in the sand to separate himself from his teammates so maybe this shouldn't be as big of a story as it is. Finally, Washington Post reporter and author Timothy Bella swings by to discuss why he decided to write his upcoming book about Charles Barkley in the first place and why the Round Mound of Rebound decided not to participate in the process, why Barkley’s comments about the Super Teams of today and players forcing their way out of town are a little hypocritical, how Barkley would have been covered if he played during the social media age, why longtime NBA writer Peter Vecsey decided he couldn’t work alongside Barkley on TNT, and much more!
