On today’s episode, Jason gets the party started by sharing his thoughts on the blockbuster trade that sent Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets. Our fearless leader has been lukewarm on the idea of adding Rodgers for months, but now that Rodgers is officially part of Gang Green, it’s hard not to see the upside. The Jets with Rodgers at the helm have a strong case for being the third best team in the AFC behind the Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals. Later, J-Mac dives deep into LeBron's James virtuoso performance to help propel the Los Angeles Lakers to a 3-1 series lead over the Memphis Grizzlies. The King became the oldest player in NBA history to have a 20-20 game. He also had the game-tying bucket to force overtime, and the game-sealing basket in the extra frame. It was an all-time great performance by LeBron.Finally, NFL Media draft analyst Lance Zierlein swings by to discuss why the Houston Texans picking at #2 hold the keys to the rest of the draft and how Trey Lance factors into it all, how agent representation could factor into where quarterbacks CJ Stroud and Will Levis get drafted, why the S2 score (in a good way for Bryce Young and in a bad way for Stroud) seems to carry so much weight around the NFL, how the trade of Rodgers to the Jets could impact the rest of the NFL Draft and much more!
