Tek & Prem dive into the Eagles 2025 NFL Schedule and take a look at the matchups and anomalies of it. The Birds are clearly an elite unit poised to push hard for a Super Bowl repeat, but they will have to do it through a gauntlet of a schedule this season. They play 10 games against 2024 Playoff teams and do not have one back-to-back at home. While there are no international games to travel for, thankfully, there are a slew of games on days other than Sunday and very challenging teams successively, at multiple points. So goes the nature of the NFL. Their leaders will carry them. The Phillies are back in action tonight at the Bank, coming off their first home series loss since last July. The rotation is elite and the bullpen is coming into form, but Bryce Harper is still yet to find his stroke at the dish. The supporting cast has helped lead them to a .581 win percentage thus far, 4th in the NL. The Pirates come in this weekend for 3 games, and although they are not a good team, they are a pesky squad with a knack for close contests. The Flyers have a new head coach, former Flyer Rick Tocchet, received with mixed reviews, and the Sixers will pick 3rd in the upcoming NBA Draft.

Dylan Harper established himself as the clear No. 2 prospect in the 2025 NBA Draft class, and the Spurs are a weird fit for the Rutgers guard. Breaking down the Sixers' chances to get Harper, potential trades involving the No. 3 pick and/or Jared McCain, and Harper's fit with Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid.

“How you gonna ridicule me? I'm in the one percentile of my work and I've shown you I work hard, so why can't I have a life away from my job?” Paul George Philadelphia 76ers In a special crossover  edition of The Pivot, we sit with NBA star, Paul George for the first part of our show and then Ryan, Chan and Fred do a second part with PG as the host that is streaming on his Podcast P channel…it's a layered conversation about basketball, football, teammates, legacy, expectations personally and professionally as well as the role of family and more as we kick off the first part of this show… This raw and insightful discussion goes far beyond the court as PG opens up about the highs and lows of his career—from the devastating leg injury that nearly ended it all, to becoming one of the league's most respected veterans as he's played for the NBA's most storied franchises and had teammates who've defined the game. In a moment of humility and honesty, PG talks about coming to the Philadelphia 76ers and how things ultimately didn't go as planned with championship expectations premature but hopes the adversity of a talented locker room will help the team rebound going forward. His admiration to play with Joel Embiid is what drew him to Philly, but injuries kept the duo from reaching full potential. He reflects on the mental and emotional toll of unmet goals, while staying focused on growth and what's next in his journey. PG shares his mindset shift over the years, lessons in leadership, and how he's learned to balance basketball, fatherhood, and business. The guys also dive into PG's thoughts on today's NBA culture, playoff performances, and the power of staying mentally strong in a game that's constantly evolving. Paul gets real about navigating criticism, evolving as a leader, and finding peace in the process. Chasing championship aspirations is still a goal, but the reality that not all greats achieve that feat is setting in....This is Paul George like you've never heard him—honest, real and reflective, in a powerful conversation about resilience, pressure, and purpose.

An INSANE Night In The NBA Playoffs Turns Gil's Arena Upside Down as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew react to a crazy night of NBA action that will change the league for many years to come. They start things off by reacting to the NBA Draft Lottery that awarded the Dallas Mavericks with the #1 overall picks and rights to Cooper Flagg just 4 months after trading Luka Doncic to Lebron James' Los Angeles Lakers. They break down the immense impact Flagg will have on the Mavericks' core of Kyrie Irving & Anthony Davis and debate if the NBA stepped in to award Nico Harrison for his move to save the Lakers. They also react to the San Antonio Spurs & Philadelphia 76ers landing at the top of a loaded draft and debate what these teams will do to surround stars like Victor Wembanyama, Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey with more young talent. Next, they react to the devastating night for the Boston Celtics as the reigning champions fell down 3-1 in the NBA Playoffs to the New York Knicks and also likely lost franchise player Jayson Tatum to a serious injury. They break down the heartbreaking news for the Celtics and discuss the lasting impact this will have on the team moving forward before analyzing how Jalen Brunson, Karl Anthony-Towns and Mikal Bridges lifted the Knicks to the brink of one of the more shocking upsets in recent years. Finally, they react to all the action across the NBA Playoffs including the battle of NBA MVP Candidates between Nikola Jokic & Shai Gilgeous Alexander, Anthony Edwards lifting the Minnesota Timberwolves over a Steph Curry-less Golden State Warriors squad, and The Cleveland Cavaliers meltdown against Tyrese Haliburton & The Indiana Pacers.

The Morning Show reacted to the Mavericks surprisingly getting the 1st overall pick in the NBA Draft last night during the NBA Draft Lottery. Something seems a little fishy- after years of these “miracles” happening for specific teams, the Morning team thinks the draft is probably rigged in some way. Tom wants the Sixers to rebuild by keeping their #3 pick and trade Paul George and Joel Embiid, but Jon Ritchie disagrees saying Embiid might be back and healthier than ever next season. They also discussed Bryce Harper's slump with Ruben Amaro Jr., who was in-studio. The MVP has had a slow start this season and still doesn't quite seem to be on track. The Eagles host the Cowboys to start the 2025 NFL season- some are excited to rub the banner in Jerry Jones' face, others don't think the Cowboys are worthy of being on the same stage as the Super Bowl Champion Eagles. Eliot Shorr-Parks joins the show to talk about Eagles rookie camp observations and his thoughts on the Sixers sitting at 3rd overall in the draft. Who's better: Cooper Flagg or Ace Bailey? Can Daryl Morey really build a quality team?

The Morning Show, with Tom Kelly filling in for Joe DeCamara, and Jon Ritchie starts with their reactions to the NBA Draft Lottery. The Dallas Mavericks, who barely had a chance (1.8%), got the first pick in the NBA Draft Lottery. Sounds like the draft was rigged. Tom wants the Sixers to keep their third pick and rebuild. He wants to trade Paul George and Joel Embiid. Jon Ritchie thinks Embiid might recover and be even better.

Tom Kelly wants to keep the 3rd pick and rebuild with whoever the Sixers get at #3. Tom wants to get rid of Paul George and Joel Embiid and build around some fresh new talent. Jon Ritchie is optimistic that Embiid could come back healthier than ever.

(0:00-8:30) Connor, Ricky and Sylvana react to the Sixers acquiring the #3 pick in the NBA Draft this year; what will they do with the pick? (8:34-16:40) Connor says hope is alive with the Sixers amidst their acquisition of the #3 pick; still questions but this is a “major step in the right direction.” Ricky wants an update on Joel Embiid. (16:43-28:34) Ricky has an issue with fans saying that players don’t want to come to Philly to play with Embiid; Paul George did and so did James Harden. (28:39-37:24) Connor says there is essentially no way Daryl Morey can mess this up.

The Sixers did everything they could to try to secure Cooper Flagg and the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft. Joel Embiid, Paul George, Tyrese Maxey and more could have their careers changed by the lottery, for better or worse.

Ike, Spike, and Fritz preview tonight's NBA Draft Lottery and whether the potential addition of Cooper Flagg should mean the end of the Joel Embiid era for the Sixers.

If the Sixers land the 1st overall pick in the NBA Draft tonight, and the chance to draft Cooper Flagg, should it spell the end of Joel Embiid's Sixers tenure? The guys discuss this and the Eagles-Cowboys kicking off the NFL season.

Kevin shared his thoughts this Saturday afternoon, expressing that the Phillies are performing as anticipated this season. He believes they have the potential to win the division, noting that there hasn't been a dominant team in the league during the first quarter of the season. We also delved into the recent interview with Daryl Morey, where he addressed Joel Embiid's health and highlighted his effectiveness as a front office executive. Additionally, we examined the Eagles' road game schedule, discussing potential trips for the season. Green Bay and Buffalo appear to be the most popular destinations among fans.

Cooper Flagg is the prize of the 2025 NBA Draft and with some luck, the Sixers hope the ping-pong balls fall their way next Monday night. With a 10.5% chance to land the #1 pick and the right to draft the 18-year-old phenom from Duke, how would Flagg change the present and future for the 76ers? Also, how would the fit be next to Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Paul George?

The Morning Team reacts to potential landing spots should he be traded.

The Philadelphia Phillies aren't a bad team as we head into May. They're not a really good team either at this point and after a month of baseball this season. While there are challenges across the board, they're still a relevant team in the NL East. This week, Ethan Witte from TheGoodPhight.com joined us for a great discussion about where this team is at, and where they'll be heading as they continue on with the 2025 season.But first, the guys dove into some Philly sports history from this week. (Approx. 5:55)From there, the guys reflected on the NFL and Eagles Draft, and how the defensive players picked early in the draft is a sheer testament to Howie Roseman trusting Vic Fangio's defense and what is needed for continued success in the NFC. (Approx. 9:50)Then the guys discussed how this is going to be such a critical offseason for the Sixers due to health issues that persist for Joel Embiid, and even more issues that are facing the team. (Approx. 18:50)The guys then gave their thoughts on the Union unexpectedly parting ways with Daniel Gazdag, and what it means for the team. (Approx. 27:05)Then they dove into some Phillies talk and how this team just lack the fun feels early this season. May this be why they're facing some challenges? (Approx. 34:20)What they threw down on the Table this week was a fantastic and in-depth discussion with Ethan Witte from The Good Phight at SB Nation about how this team is facing a number of challenges. From Aaron Nola to Zack Wheeler to the runners in scoring position storyline, the guys discussed the good and bad when it comes to this Phillies 2025 season. All of this and much more this week on the Table!

Ben Simmons' Sixers career ended in inglorious fashion after a meltdown vs. the Atlanta Hawks. But it didn't always seem destined for failure. How and when did it all go wrong for Joel Embiid's first running mate?

The Phillies faced off against the Nationals last night in an exciting matchup. For most of the game, the Phillies were in the lead, but in the 9th inning, the Nationals took a 6-5 advantage. However, the Phillies scored 2 runs in the bottom of the 9th, sealing the game with a walk-off win. They will meet the Nationals again today at 6:45 PM. With the draft now behind us, what are the sentiments regarding this Eagles team? Are we looking forward to the upcoming season? Do we believe the Eagles have accomplished enough, or is there more to be done before the new year begins?

What if Jimmy Butler never left the Sixers in the summer of 2019, keeping him with Joel Embiid? How would things have looked for Embiid, Butler and the organization? Championship?

Tomorrow signals the start of the 2025 NFL Draft. All attention will focus on the Eagles as we eagerly anticipate their strategy for this draft. Some speculate that the Eagles may try to trade up, using their picks and possibly Dallas Goedert, while others believe they will stay at the 32nd pick or even trade down. In other news, the Phillies were defeated by the Mets last night, with a final score of 5-1. Sanchez exited the game after throwing 58 pitches over 2 innings. The Phillies' offense requires major improvements.

Only two days remain until the NFL Draft! There's uncertainty about the Eagles' strategy at the 32nd pick. Will they trade their picks for a player, or consider moving up in the draft? Alternatively, could they choose to move back and gain additional picks from a team eager to draft in the first round? In baseball, the Phillies fell to the Mets last night, finishing 4-5. Aaron Nola remains without a victory at the start of the season.

The Sixers season is (thankfully) in the books. As we take a way too early look ahead at next season we also discuss the upcoming draft lottery, free agency, and the fact that Tobias Harris is in a playoff series against the New York Knicks.

Today marks the official beginning of DRAFT WEEK! The NFL Draft is just a few days away, and there's much to cover. What strategy do the Eagles have for the first round, particularly regarding tight end concerns? Are there plans for a trade involving Dallas Goedert? Will the Eagles decide to move up or back in the draft? Meanwhile, the Phillies lost a lead to the Marlins yesterday on Easter, ending the game 7-5. Could Jordan Romano be an issue?

Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, and Paul George failed as a big three with the Sixers this season. How do their games need to evolve in order to avoid a similar fate next year?

Daryl Morey shared his vision of the Sixers' future roster during exit interviews on Sunday. Do you trust he can turn the team around with Nick Nurse with Joel Embiid, Paul George, and the other core members in place?

On this episode of First Take, Stephen A. is joined by Marcus Morris, and Peter Rosenberg to talk about the success of Steph Curry and the Warriors this year. In baseball, Stephen A and Peter Rosenberg discuss the undefeated start of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Then Kendrick Perkins dives into who is the most vital Laker player approaching the playoffs. Stephen A. gives his list of who would be the best NBA player to own a franchise.
