Podcast appearances and mentions of jaden mcdaniels

This hour Henry says everyone on the Timberwolves is expendable except Anthony Edwards, Jaden McDaniels, and Joan Beringer. The Twins got a solid outing from Joe Ryan to beat the Astros, plus we have This Day In Sports History.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk sports betting for Friday. Munaf Manji and Uncle Diamond Dave Essler are back on the Cash That Ticket podcast for a Friday, May 15, 2026 episode that covers more ground than most, starting with two NBA playoff closeout games and working all the way through the MLB Friday card, a PGA Championship round one update, and a genuine milestone moment as Munaf officially becomes a Pregame Pro on Pregame.com — selling picks for the first time after years of giving them away for free on this pod, and receiving a full public endorsement from Dave that was honest, direct, and exactly what you would expect from a man who has been in the pick-selling business long enough to know the difference between a handicapper and a salesman. On the NBA side, the guys break down Game 6 of Cavaliers versus Pistons at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland, where the Cavs hold a three-games-to-two lead after surviving overtime in Detroit behind 30 points from James Harden and a 31-free-throw performance that Dave argues is simply not repeatable — not the free throw volume, not the 40 percent three-point shooting, not the pace that produced 211 points in regulation plus overtime, and both hosts land on the under at 211 and a half as their conviction play, with Dave adding Detroit plus four and a half as his side bet, pointing to the Pistons' history of holding opponents under 101 points in five of their six wins this postseason and the brutal minutes load both rosters are carrying out of an overtime game where Cade Cunningham played 48 of 53 available minutes and Evan Mobley, James Harden, and Donovan Mitchell each logged 43. In the Western Conference, San Antonio leads Minnesota three to two and travels to Target Center as road favorites, and Dave likes the Timberwolves in the spot — citing the loss of emotional fuel that powered the Spurs' 29-point blowout in Game 5 after the Victor Wembanyama ejection, the correctable nature of Minnesota's poor shooting and paint numbers from that game, and his standing rule about backing home underdogs in elimination games, which Munaf reinforces with data showing the Wolves have consistently been excellent coming off losses and pointing to Anthony Edwards as a player who needs a signature moment tonight, with both hosts taking Minnesota plus five and a half and the over at 218 and a half and flagging Naz Reid three-pointers made and Jaden McDaniels points and rebounds as the ancillary prop angles on the Wolves side. On the MLB card, they fade Aaron Nola against the Pirates and Braxton Ashcraft, building the case around Nola's fly-ball evolution, his seven home runs in 42 innings, his trend of pitching worse in back-to-back matchups against the same team, and the road context at PNC Park tonight, preferring the Pittsburgh first-five-innings run line as the cleanest execution vehicle. In the Subway Series, Cam Schlittler — who is putting up historic numbers not seen since Walter Johnson in 1913 — starts for the Yankees at Citi Field against Clay Holmes and the Mets, with cold temperatures, wind blowing in, and a total of seven making the first-five-innings under the natural play for both hosts. Dave's best bet is the over in the Rockies-Diamondbacks game at Coors Field, where Merrill Kelly arrives with a 7.62 ERA and 19 hits allowed in 14 road innings, and Munaf's best bet is the under eight in Atlanta between the Braves and the Red Sox, with Spencer Strider making his third start back from an oblique strain against a Boston offense that has scored five combined runs over its last four games.

Game 5 was a San Antonio blowout for the Spurs. Deconstructing the quagmire with Henry Lake on the WCCO Morning News.

0:00 - Hockey hits are truly different than any other sport. You're not just colliding with other humans. You're getting slammed full force into immovable planks of solid wood, by huge humans moving at high speeds. There's no other sport like it.Also, we were critical of Jared Bednar yesterday for sticking with MacKenzie Blackwood in net for Game 4. It seemed like a solution in search of a problem. And today, we're here to eat crow. Clearly Bedsie knows that goalie room better than anyone else, and that's all that matters. But now, here's where it gets really interesting...who starts in net tomorrow for Game 5?17:05 - Josh Manson clearly got in Michael McCarron's head last night. Manson is a pest. He plays right on that line, but he doesn't cross the line. Every team needs a player like that. Josh Manson is doing to the Wild what Jaden McDaniels did to the Nuggets.32:39 - Some final odds and ends here...The Broncos probably need to a get a restraining order against Von Miller. What happened to Cal Raleigh, who (you could argue) should've won AL MVP over Aaron Judge? Is it okay to send a tweet to the group chat during the waining seconds of a playoff game? LaMelo Ball's partner is named Ana Montana, and they named their son LaOne? Huh?

The NBA playoffs have gone completely off the rails. Three teams down 3-1 have forced game sevens. A 24-point halftime lead disappeared inside 24 minutes. The Nuggets got bounced without Anthony Edwards, DiVincenzo, or Ayo Dosunmu even on the floor. And Cade Cunningham looked like the best player on any court in the fourth quarter when it mattered most.Mo Mooncey and coach Brendan Suhr break down the most chaotic 48 hours of playoff basketball in years. From Karl-Anthony Towns emerging as a point center to Jaden McDaniels calling out Jokic and Murray by name before delivering a 30-piece, to Denver staring down a cap situation with no obvious way out - this episode covers everything you need to know heading into three massive game sevens.Listen or watch as they go deep on why Denver is in trouble long after this series ends, where Paolo Banchero's 4-of-20 night leaves the Magic, and whether the Celtics can actually trust themselves in a home game seven.Topics covered: Knicks advance: How they flipped the series on the Hawks Karl-Anthony Towns as a point center and OG Anunoby's defense Jalen Johnson's disappointing series and the Hawks' uncertain future Celtics vs Sixers Game 7: drop coverage problems, Embiid dominance, and the Al Horford absence Paolo Banchero 4/20 vs Cade Cunningham's 19-point fourth quarter Paulo's post-game interview: accountability and what was really said Cavaliers vs Raptors Game 7: RJ Barrett's game winner and Donovan Mitchell's playoff problem Timberwolves beat the Nuggets without three key players - Jaden McDaniels' revenge arc Rudy Gobert's passing revelation and why both coaches owe him an apology Denver's cap situation: Jamal Murray at max money, Christian Braun's contract, Payton Watson as a flight risk Thunder sweep the Suns Lakers advance, JJ Redick and Marcus Smart San Antonio Spurs advance, Wemby's back The tanking proposal - one verdict

"That's my lover. That's the woman with whom I lay bare." Dave Dameshek's wife just gave him some truly alarming information, but we have to get to Nikola Jokic's warning to the Denver Nuggets after Jaden McDaniels, Rudy Gobert, and the Minnesota Timberwolves punked their team. Also, if the Boston Celtics blow a 3-1 lead to the Philadelphia 76ers, will it be time to rethink the legacy of Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Joe Mazzulla? Learn more about your ad choices.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Friday. Munaf Manji and Uncle Diamond Dave Essler are back on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed for the May 1 edition of Cash That Ticket, and the slate is as loaded as any Friday of the playoffs. The show opens with a full Thursday night recap after Minnesota eliminated Denver in six games, with Jaden McDaniels going for a career-high 32 points and 10 rebounds while Terrence Shannon Jr. added 24 in a starting role forced by a three-guard injury pile that left the Timberwolves shorthanded going into the clincher. Jamal Murray shot 4-of-17, finished with 12 points and four assists, and the Nuggets are done. Minnesota advances to face San Antonio on Monday. The Knicks destroyed Atlanta 140-89 on a night where the Hawks never threatened, and Philadelphia beat Boston to force a Saturday Game 7 in the Eastern Conference. Then the guys get into tonight's three elimination games and that is where the real work begins. In Orlando, the Magic are catching four points at home against Detroit in a game where Franz Wagner is out and the Pistons are laying points for the first time in the series on the road in a must-win spot for the home team. Dave likes the Magic plus four and the under at 210. Munaf builds a detailed case for Desmond Bane over 2.5 three-pointers made at plus-117 on DraftKings, citing three consecutive games with three-plus threes, five-plus threes in both Orlando home games, 8.83 attempts per game from deep, and 35-plus minutes of run with Wagner sidelined. In Toronto, Cleveland has never won on the road in this series and the Raptors outplayed the Cavaliers in every stat but three-point shooting in Game 5, losing by five while outrebounding Cleveland by 13 and posting 32 assists to Cleveland's 20. Brandon Ingram moves to doubtful mid-show and the line shifts a full point across every book, but both Dave and Munaf had already made their call on Toronto at plus points before the downgrade was official. In Houston, the Rockets try to force a Game 7 without Kevin Durant, who is out again with a bone bruise in his ankle. LeBron James is 41 and playing six games in thirteen days on the road. Austin Reeves is back but has become a defensive liability. Reed Sheppard had his coming-out moments in Game 5. Amen Thompson is playing like a seasoned postseason veteran. Dave and Munaf both land on Houston to cover and the under at 205.5, noting that three of five games in this series have finished at 205 or below. The MLB card gets a full breakdown too, with Dave delivering his best bet of the year candidate in the Red Sox team total over 4.5 runs against Mike Burrows and the porous Astros bullpen at Fenway Park. Munaf adds the Royals at Mariners under with Cole Ragans and Bryan Woo on the mound as his cleaner baseball play. There is also discussion of the Dodgers at St. Louis under, the Twins team total against Patrick Corbin, the White Sox run line against San Diego, and whether Shane McClanahan at minus-150 is worth it against San Francisco. All this plus the Pregame.com promo code HIT20 for twenty dollars off a thirty-day MLB all-access package at one hundred and nineteen dollars, and a Monday preview that will bring the official April best bets recap, second-round series previews, and the full Timberwolves versus Spurs Game 1 breakdown.

Andy and Randy analyze the Timberwolves' impressive defensive performance to eliminate the Nuggets and Jaden McDaniels' breakout play. The discussion shifts to the Hawks' disappointing season-ending loss to the Knicks and Jayson Tatum's recurring calf issues for the Celtics. Additionally, they react to a bizarre viral story involving a JP Morgan executive. 01:00 - Viral JP Morgan Story 04:52 - Hawks Season Ends 07:09 - Timberwolves Eliminate Nuggets 14:09 - Celtics Injury Concerns

0:00 - Where was this team's FIGHT? Where was their MOTIVATION?? You couldn't rally to beat an injured, depleted Wolves team in an elimination game? What about all the times you got punked by Lu Dort this year? Clowned by Jaden McDaniels this series? No one stood up for this team when it mattered most. Say what you will about guys like Russell Westbrook and Paul Millsap. They didn't take crap from anyone.14:46 - The Nuggets season is mercifully over. And now their watch is ended. Avalanche...it's up to you now. Please please PLEASE beat the Minnesota Wild and pull Denver sports out of the pit of misery. Plus, we CANNOT afford to lose to a second Minnesota team in a row. Do your thing, Colorado Wagon! 32:27 - We need it today more than most days. It's our favorite part of the week DRUNK TAKES! We take clips from throughout the week, slow em down to half speed and it makes us sound like we're hammered. Today's edition includes: Nuggets need to skratoninerre, that Japanese stroke, FnX? FnY?, put electrodes on your thing, and prebusecent.

0:00 - What do we say to the God of Death? Not today! The Nuggets won game 5 and stayed alive in the series vs Minnesota! They finally played with physicality and didn't let Jaden McDaniels do what Jaden McDaniels does. 15:01 - Yesterday, the entire state of Minnesota wanted Vic's head on a stake (think Lord of the Flies) for saying that the Nuggets needed to intentionally injure Jaden McDaniels to send a message. Here's the thing...Vic never said that. At all. Not even close. He only asked for "repercussions" to Jaden McDaniels' tomfoolery. Today, Vic responded to the angry residents of the Twin Cities (and beyond).31:55 - Have you been following the NHL and NBA playoffs much? Outside of the Nuggets and Avs, which playoff series have you been following?

00:00 Jeff Legwold joins the show.13:35 More on Nuggets-Wolves.30:55 Nikola Jokic comments on Jaden McDaniels, Broncos draft.

Victor Wembanyama returned to lead the Spurs to a dominant Game 4 win that showed just how ridiculous this team is at full strength. 0:38 What looked like a boring series in Cleveland has turned into a fascinating test as Toronto roared back to even the series behind Scottie Barnes and Collin Murray-Boyles. What kind of 2-2 series is this? 24:18 Boston seized control of their series against Philly by taking way more and way better shots than the Sixers despite Embiid's return. 1:14:05 Houston staved off elimination, but how will Austin Reaves' likely return change the matchups in this series? 1:30:54 Despite two extremely depressing injuries, the Wolves gutted out a 3-1 lead against Denver with Ayo Dosunmu, Jaden McDaniels, and Rudy Gobert leading the way. 1:39:39 Orlando clawed its way to a 2-1 series lead as much of Detroit's bread and butter has dried up. How can the Pistons get back in the series? 2:13:39 New York leveraged their main advantages and Atlanta's weaknesses to even up at 2. Are they back in control? 2:30:44 Shai Gilgeous-Alexander authored one of the most efficient playoff games ever and OKC outclassed Phoenix–well, with the exception of Lu Dort. 2:42:35 Join Dunc'd On Prime!

0:00 - The Nuggets lost Game 4 to the Timberwolves, and they've been pushed to the brink of elimination. Minnesota lost 2 of their best players in that game, and the Nuggets still couldn't rally for a win. That was a tough look on Saturday night. Where's the fire? Where's the competitive spirit?14:29 - As if Denver's loss wasn't bad enough, Jaden McDaniels punked them AGAIN. At least Jokic got in his face about it this time.33:04 - The Kings played the Avalanche in the first round and it was a waste of 8 days. Darryl Sutter's quote still rings true 4 years later. Congrats to the Avs for taking care of business. After the game yesterday, Kings Interim Head Coach DJ Smith was very complimentary of the Avs.

0:00 - The NFL Draft is in the books! Do we like the Broncos picks? How did the Law Firm of Payton and Paton do this year?14:10 - Jaden McDaniels has been punking the Nuggets since 2024, and they keep letting him get away with it! We're not mad at McDaniels for breaking an unwritten rule...we're mad at the Nuggets for letting him do it AGAIN! That has to end tonight. Period. Someone needs to stand up to him.32:06 - Oh, by the way...The Rockies SWEPT THE METS! On the road! How do you like them (Big) apples? Oh, by the way...Diego Pavia didn't get drafted this weekend. From Heisman finalist to undrafted. Yikes. Oh, by the way...Canadiens Head Coach Martin St. Louis handles the stress of the playoffs by watching Seinfeld. 

Aaron and Arnie start off the show recapping the NBA games on Saturday, most notably the Timberwolves beating the Nikola-Jokic Nuggets without Anthony Edwards and Donte DiVincenzo. The guys debate whether or not Jokic should be suspended for shoving McDaniels at the end of game 4. The guys then discuss Kevin Durant's Rockets being down 0-3 to the Lakers, who are without Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves and why Durant continues to make every team he joins worse. Aaron and Arnie then discuss the NFL Draft's biggest storylines including Ty Simpson to the Rams, Carnell Tate to the Titans, and the 49ers and Jaguars historically bad draft classes. The guys end the show discussing the new leaked pictures of Mike Vrabel and Dianna Rusinni and whether or not Vrabel should get fired. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Introduction: Host Michael Rand looks at the Vikings' pick of Caleb Banks at No. 18 overall. He's a massive interior defensive lineman with a history of foot problems.
