Colin’s top takes of the week.

First, he’s joined by Danny Parkins, host of “First Thing’s First” on FS1.

They begin with tanking in the NBA and Colin argues that he’s pro-tanking because it’s the only way to turn your franchise around since it’s so difficult to trade star players in the NBA (2:30). They agree that NBA players have gotten so good at shooting 3’s, it’s led to a less visually appealing product for the fans that makes the regular season tough to watch (10:45) and they debate potential fixes (23:30). 

Then,  joined by Art Manteris, a veteran bookmaker, to discuss sports gambling. They dive into some of the wildest sports gambling stories ever told — from massive celebrity bets to shocking moments involving Mike Tyson and others (30:00).

Prime Cuts - NBA Teams HAVE To Tank, NBA Players Are TOO Good Now, Crazy Sports Gambling Stories

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/1a738864-0cd0-479f-8aeb-b3f800062f2a/transcript

Colin’s joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight” to break down the NBA playoffs.

They start with the Celtics being upset by the 76ers and they discuss Boston’s dependence on their “system”, why that system fell apart when Jayson Tatum can’t play, and why Joel Embiid created massive problems for the Celtics defensively (3:00). They also  preview the upcoming series between the Knicks and Sixers (15:30). 

They move to the western conference and Colin argues the Lakers win over the Rockets put the exclamation point on the argument that LeBron is better than Kevin Durant, and the series showed the gap between the two is bigger than ever (24:45). 

They pivot to the Timberwolves knocking off the Nuggets, and they debate whether we’ve been underrating the Wolves team & organization for years (35:30), and whether a young & inexperienced Spurs team can be trusted in the postseason (39:30). 

Colin argues the Nuggets need to shake things up and make some major moves in order to get over the hump and Jason suggests they look into acquiring CJ McCollum in order to move off Jamal Murray and finding an athletic forward to fill the role a younger Aaron Gordon filled (43:30).

Sixers Upset Celtics, LeBron Finds A Way To Win, Wolves Are Underrated, Nuggets Need To Re-Tool

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/2b8bc08d-0e25-4ff6-b25b-b43f0181ea5d/transcript

Colin’s top takes of the week.

First, he’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down the NFL Draft.

They begin by discussing the backlash to the  Bears taking speedster Zayvian Johnson and Colin explains that if any coach picked him, it may not be a great pick…but with Ben Johnson as coach it can work (2:30). 

They move to the Rams & Colin argues that while their draft won’t grade well… outside of Ty Simpson, the Rams are drafting for the near term while they still have Matt Stafford and John believes Simpson wasn’t talented enough to justify the 13th pick (8:30) and Colin lauds the Cowboys for focusing on improving their defense as well by getting the steal of the draft in Caleb Downs (13:30). 

Then, Colin is  joined by legendary sportswriter, commentator and the Director of Sports Journalism at Northwestern University, J.A. Adande to talk about his new sports podcast with Chuck Todd called “Dynastic”, which does deep dives into some of the most legendary franchises in sports history.

They begin with the LIV Tour looking like it’s going belly up and why it wasn’t treated seriously by the broadcast networks & sports media. They discuss the questionable  ethics of LIV being funded by the Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund and the potential of that type of money flowing into the coffers of other American sports leagues (21:30). 

Finally, they discuss the longstanding MJ vs LeBron debate and  compare the major differences in the eras they play in, and J.A. explains that there were two different eras of Michael Jordan and how Jordan eventually became trapped by his fame (28:30).

They discuss the questionable  ethics of LIV being funded by the Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund and the potential of that type of money flowing into the coffers of other American sports leagues (3:30). 

They move to Dynastic choosing the 70s Steelers as one of their first dynasties to cover, and what J.A. learned about covering that team. J.A. explains how the Steelers were ahead of the curve on drafting from HBCUs and why being racially progressive was a huge reason for their success (10:30).

They pivot to the Dodgers and discuss the lasting legacy of Sonny Koufax despite his career being so short, and why international players have long been a key to the Dodgers success (16:00).

They discuss the longstanding MJ vs LeBron debate and  compare the major differences in the eras they play in, and J.A. explains that there were two different eras of Michael Jordan and how Jordan eventually became trapped by his fame (25:00). 

They break down the massive changes to college sports in the NIL era and why it’s ultimately been a net positive for both the athletes and the fans and J.A. argues they should professionalize the relationship with player contracts (30:30).

Finally, they discuss the current state of sports journalism and J.A. emphasizes the distinction between sports journalism & sports media, and explains his worries about the future of the journalistic side of the business (36:00).
