Get ready for a TRADE-A-PALOOZA.  Mike Lucas (McNuggets), of The Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show, joins Bob Schmidt to talk trades.  Some are terrible, some are profound, some are no brainers.  But Fear the 'Fro has a Cavs trade with every single team in the Eastern Conference.  Strap in.

Even with the Cavaliers win over the Spurs, is it still fair to say you want to see more from this team before you can jump back on the train?

The Cleveland Cavaliers has a significant win over the Spurs, but it still doesn't feel 'good.' What does the team have to do to get your faith back?

Griffin Warner and Big East Ben talk college basketball betting for Tuesday & Wednesday. College basketball betting returned to the forefront as Griffin Warner and Big East Ben broke down a limited but meaningful Tuesday and Wednesday slate, focusing on market inefficiencies, roster context, and stylistic mismatches after a quiet holiday stretch. Warner opened by noting how the absence of regular tournament play left bettors without rhythm, while Ben highlighted frustration with midseason roster additions and the broader instability they create, arguing the issue reflects a lack of centralized control rather than isolated team behavior. The discussion quickly turned to actionable games, starting with Louisville traveling to Cal as a seven and a half point favorite with a total of 160 and a half. Ben emphasized Cal's defensive profile, citing rankings of 60th overall defensively, 30th in effective field goal defense, and 41st against the three, holding opponents under 30 percent shooting, while Warner focused on the total, questioning whether Louisville's perimeter offense would translate in an ACC road opener. Both agreed the number was inflated, especially given Cal's 12 and one record and strong defensive efficiency. Attention then shifted to Seton Hall at Marquette, where internal turmoil and on court inefficiency dominated the conversation. Ben detailed Marquette's offensive struggles, noting rankings of 285th in three point shooting and 257th in two point shooting, along with a 54 percent conversion rate at the rim that ranked near 200th nationally despite generating 43 percent of attempts there. He framed Seton Hall as flawed but preferable against what he called a dysfunctional opponent, while Warner leaned toward Marquette at home, citing skepticism of Seton Hall as a road favorite. The analysis continued with Virginia at Virginia Tech, a matchup complicated by timing and student absence. Ben highlighted Virginia's strength on the glass, ranking third nationally in offensive rebounding rate against a Virginia Tech defense ranked 235th in defensive rebounding, supporting his preference for the Cavaliers. Warner countered with the home underdog angle, acknowledging Virginia Tech's tendency to play close games despite roster turnover. The final game focused on Clemson at Syracuse, a matchup defined by volatility and fundamentals. Ben described Clemson as wildly inconsistent but talented, referencing strong guard play and overall steadiness, while sharply criticizing Syracuse's free throw shooting, which he said ranked 365th nationally at 59 percent, with guards shooting as low as 49 percent. Both landed on the under 139, expecting missed free throws and uneven execution to suppress scoring. Best bets closed the show, with Ben backing Washington State plus four and a half at Seattle, citing frontcourt size advantages, and Warner selecting Virginia Tech plus four at home. The episode reflected a return to disciplined analysis, emphasizing efficiency metrics, matchup context, and market overreaction rather than volume or narrative Learn more about your ad choices.

Full Third Hour on December 24, 2025

Things haven't been clicking as well for the Cavaliers this season as expected. Where is the issue start and could there be tension behind doors?

On this episode of The Drive & Dish NBA Podcast, hosted by Kevin Rafuse (@rafusetolose) and Justin Cousart (@JustinContheAir), the guys start the show by previewing the Christmas day games. Rumors around Darius Garland's availability have begun as the Cavs face the Knicks, the Spurs and Thunder have a budding rivalry, the Klay Thompson bowl and key West showdowns between the Rockets and Lakers and the Nuggets and Timberwolves. Next, the Knicks are NBA Cup champions. What it means for them going forward the rest of the season and how much the city is celebrating. Then, the guys discuss ways to improve the NBA Cup going forward or if it's ok as is. In Who's Ballin Who's Fallin, Kon Kneuppel hits 100 3's in record time, Draymond Green yells at Steve Kerr, Ben Simmons is going fishing and the Jacksonville Jaguars? Finally another round of Immaculate Grid. Listen to the show wherever you get your podcast and watch the show on YouTube.

Highlights: The big question: Is Shedeur Sanders the Browns' long-term answer at quarterback? His development is a work in progress amidst a poor offense. A compelling case for the Browns to use a high draft pick on a "sure thing" wide receiver like Carnell Tate instead of a risky QB, providing a reliable weapon for the next decade. The offensive line is a top priority for a complete overhaul, with a need to invest heavily in the draft and free agency to find a cornerstone "10-year left tackle." Jerry Jeudy's disappointing season raises questions about his future with the team given his large contract. After a shaky start, kicker Andre Szmyt has become a reliable and above-average weapon, solidifying a key position for the Browns. Quarterback Dillon Gabriel is largely viewed as a long-term backup, a role highlighted by fan reactions during a recent game appearance. A debate emerged comparing the calm demeanor of Browns coach Kevin Stefanski to the fiery, culture-changing style of Indiana's Curt Cignetti, questioning which approach is better for a struggling team. The modern college football landscape, with NIL and the transfer portal, allows for much faster program turnarounds than the more structured team-building environment of the NFL. Cavs guard Darius Garland has shown a recent resurgence, playing more like the dynamic, aggressive offensive player he has been in the past. Despite a recent win, the Cavs' defense remains a major concern, as they continue to struggle with transition defense and rebounding. The Cavaliers are criticized for their heavy reliance on high-volume three-point shooting, with suggestions they should focus more on attacking the paint. There's a belief that the Cavaliers' offense functions best when center Jarrett Allen is happy and actively involved as more than just a screener. Fans expressed grave concern over MLB's official partnerships with sports betting companies, fearing it compromises the game's integrity. Frustration is mounting over MLB's slow action in the gambling case involving Guardians players, especially when compared to the NBA's swift response in similar situations. A top offseason wish for the Guardians is to trade from their pitching depth to acquire a much-needed right-handed power-hitting outfielder. The system allowing wealthy MLB teams to sign "ready-made" international players is debated as unfair, sparking ideas for creating more parity for smaller markets. The lack of playing time for offensive lineman Zak Zinter, despite numerous injuries, raises questions about his future with the Browns. Learn more about your ad choices.

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== DEVOCIÓN MATUTINA PARA JÓVENES 2025“HOY ES TENDENCIA”Narrado por: Daniel RamosDesde: Connecticut, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist Church===================|| www.drministries.org ||===================25 de DiciembreBuenas noticias para todos«¡Gloria a Dios en las alturas! ¡Paz en la tierra entre los hombres que gozan de su favor!». Lucas 2: 14El 19 de junio de 2016 ocurrió lo que pocos anticipaban. Después de haber estado perdiendo tres partidos a uno, los Cavaliers de Cleveland, liderados por LeBron James, remontaron la serie y propinaron tres derrotas consecutivas a los Warriors de Golden State para coronarse campeones de la serie final de la NBA de ese año. Al finalizar el séptimo partido, Tyronn Lue, el entrenador de los Cavaliers, se refirió a LeBron James con las siguientes palabras: «A los grandes les ocurren grandes cosas».Las palabras de Tyronn Lue podrán ser ciertas en el mundo del deporte, donde la superioridad es recompensada con la victoria. Pero al recordar el nacimiento de Jesucristo, resulta evidente que a los ojos de Dios no hay que ser «grande» para experimentar «grandes cosas».Cuando Dios se encarnó, las primeras personas en recibir las buenas noticias fueron pastores de ovejas «que pasaban la noche en el campo cuidando sus ovejas» (Lucas 2: 8). Durante el primer siglo de nuestra era, los pastores formaban parte del estrato más bajo de la sociedad. Eran gente tosca y de mala fama, considerados ladrones por el resto de la población. ¡Y ellos fueron los primeros en recibir la buena noticia!Además de los pastores, el nacimiento de Jesús trajo buenas noticias para Zacarías, el anciano, e Isabel, la estéril (Lucas 1); para José, el justo, y María, la virgen (Mateo 1: 18); para judíos como Simeón y Ana (Lucas 2: 21-38); y para paganos como los sabios de Oriente (Mateo 2: 1-12). En el reino de Jesús, hay lugar para todos, no solo para los grandes. Él recibió a niños (Mateo 19: 13) y a dirigentes religiosos (Juan 3: 1-21), compartió mesa con cobradores de impuestos (Lucas 19:1-10) y conversó con mujeres de reputación dudosa (Juan 4: 1-42). Él vino a traer buenas nuevas de salvación para todos.Hoy el nacimiento de Jesús sigue siendo la mejor noticia para todos. El evangelio es la forma que Dios tiene de decirnos que «a los pecadores les ocurren grandes cosas», «a los indignos les ocurren grandes cosas» y «a los olvidados les ocurren grandes cosas». Por eso hoy, día de Navidad, podemos cantar junto a los ángeles: «¡Gloria a Dios en las alturas!».

Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers talk NBA betting for Christmas Day. Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers deliver a comprehensive NBA Christmas Day betting and power ratings breakdown, framing Christmas as the unofficial start of the NBA season for casual fans and one of the most important betting slates of the year for serious players. Munaf opens by welcoming listeners and outlining the five game slate, while Rivers immediately sets the tone by pointing out how dominant the Oklahoma City Thunder have been, noting their historic efficiency and plus seventeen adjusted net rating, while also stressing that the league still has parity beneath the surface. The discussion moves into updated power ratings, beginning with the San Antonio Spurs ranked fifth. Rivers explains that the Spurs' success is driven by guard depth with Dylan Harper, Stefan Castle, and De'Aaron Fox, along with Victor Wembanyama embracing team oriented basketball rather than chasing individual scoring. Munaf adds important context, highlighting that San Antonio is twenty one and seven, second in the Western Conference, and undefeated at seven and zero in their division, which signals consistency and versatility. The New York Knicks are ranked fourth, with Rivers noting a clear gap between them and the teams below. Munaf explains how the coaching change has helped manage minutes more effectively, reducing wear on starters like Jalen Brunson while getting meaningful contributions from the bench, which has stabilized the team. The Houston Rockets and Denver Nuggets occupy the next tier, with Rivers tying them closely. Munaf leans Denver as the stronger team due to championship pedigree, Jamal Murray's high level play, Nikola Jokic's dominance, and an impressive twelve and two road record, while also pointing out Houston's struggles in clutch situations, including a one and four overtime record. Oklahoma City is unanimously ranked number one at twenty six and three, with the league's top defense and a plus fifteen point seven net rating. Rivers praises their consistency but cautions against labeling them an all time team, noting that reintegrating injured players does not automatically make a team better. The conversation then shifts to the Christmas Day games, starting with Cavaliers versus Knicks. Both hosts favor New York minus five and a half, citing Cleveland injuries, poor on off numbers with Darius Garland, and a recent defensive rating of one hundred twenty one point seven over the last five games. Spurs versus Thunder is framed as a revenge spot for Oklahoma City, with Munaf preferring the Thunder early in the game due to coaching adjustments and Victor Wembanyama being limited to around twenty to twenty five minutes. Mavericks versus Warriors leads Rivers to the under at two hundred twenty seven and a half because of Dallas offensive inefficiency and Golden State's declining overall impact despite star names, while Munaf highlights Anthony Davis' rebounding consistency as a potential prop angle. The best bet of the day comes in Rockets versus Lakers, where Rivers backs Houston minus four and a half, arguing the Lakers' record overstates their true level and that Houston's youth, defense, and depth give them a clear edge, especially if Luka is limited. Munaf agrees, emphasizing Houston's ability to exploit the Lakers defensively. The slate closes with Timberwolves versus Nuggets, where both lean under two hundred thirty seven and a half due to Minnesota's recent top tier defense and Denver's slower pace. The episode ends with holiday well wishes and encouragement to enjoy the games responsibly. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
