Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley kick off today’s show reveling in the US Women’s Hockey Team winning the gold medal over Canada. The guys recap the Nuggets’ close loss to the Clippers and the end of game problems that have been haunting them. They put a moratorium on their Friday McD’s and share weekend plans before they get an “Is It Just Me” about the competition in the western conference. The guys talk down a Nuggets fan who is calling out David Adelman for his coaching and they debate who the most delusional fanbase in sports is. The 6am Duo wrap up the first hour discussing the Broncos’ needs this offseason being awfully similar to their to-do list from last year.  

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley with Mark Schlereth open the second hour celebrating the USA Women’s Hockey Team winning gold. They get into a heated debate about overtime hockey.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Friday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler head into Friday's card riding momentum after a 2 0 best bet performance, highlighted by South Florida's decisive 21 point win over Memphis and Orlando's explosive turnaround against Sacramento in which the Magic outscored the Kings 113 to 66 over the final three quarters while drilling 27 three pointers. With confidence high, attention shifts to a pair of late NBA matchups beginning with the Clippers visiting the Lakers. Despite the Lakers laying seven and a half points with Luka Doncic set to return, both hosts expressed caution about paying a perceived Lakers premium. The teams rank among the slowest paced in the league, and prior meetings have produced mixed total results. The Clippers enter on the second night of a back to back after poor three point shooting in their previous outing, a factor Essler expects to correct. Manji echoed the sentiment, noting the minimal travel and supporting the Clippers plus the points while also leaning under the total of 225 and a half given pace and recent trends. The nightcap features Denver in Portland with the total climbing above 240. Essler backed the Trail Blazers, citing Denver's road struggles in February, heavy minutes in their prior game, and Portland's continued push for playoff positioning. Manji preferred a split approach, targeting Denver early while playing the full game over based on tempo and recent back to back trends. Player props remain central to both analysts' strategy. Essler's best bet targets Deni Avdija over 34 and a half points rebounds and assists, pointing to his recent production and the likelihood of elevated scoring in a high total environment. Manji counters with Jalen Johnson over 43 and a half PRA in Atlanta's matchup with Miami, emphasizing the fast pace shared by both teams and Johnson's consistent minutes and prior success against the Heat. The discussion also continued their MLB season win total preview. Both agreed on the White Sox over 66 and a half wins, noting last year's modest negative run differential, bullpen reinforcements, and realistic path to incremental improvement in a competitive but manageable division. The Miami Marlins generated debate. Essler favored the over 72 and a half, citing strong front line pitching and promising young talent, while Manji leaned under due to divisional strength and the possibility of midseason trades should the club stumble early. As the NBA resumes full stride and baseball season approaches, the duo remains focused on disciplined value, careful market observation, and selective aggression in both sides and props.

On today's episode of The Sporting Tribune Today, Grant Mona connects two vibrant corners of the sports world — Dodgers Spring Training vibes with voices from camp, and Clippers All-Star Weekend reactions and practice insights as Kawhi Leonard leads the way. Segment One — Dodgers Spring Training with Roberts, Friedman, Díaz & Betts Grant opens with the latest from Dodgers Spring Training at Camelback Ranch, where Dave Roberts, Andrew Friedman, Edwin Díaz, and Mookie Betts have been setting the tone for the 2026 season. Manager Dave Roberts emphasized focus, consistency, and “looking forward” as the squad kicked off full-squad workouts, encouraging the group to ignore external expectations and lean into daily preparation. Roberts' message included contributions from Díaz, Kyle Tucker, Miguel Rojas and others, highlighting the depth and experience assembled around Los Angeles' championship core. Veteran closer Edwin Díaz, newly signed to anchor the bullpen, has talked openly about choosing the Dodgers because of their winning culture and recent World Series success, and Betts has embraced his role in camp with an eye toward another postseason run. The spring atmosphere — fueled by big names like Shohei Ohtani and fans flocking to workouts — reflects high expectations for a club chasing another title. Segment Two — Kawhi, Clippers Practice & All-Star Buzz In the second segment, Grant turns to the hardwood as he breaks down Kawhi Leonard's post–All-Star Weekend perspective and Clippers practice comments from Ty Lue, Isaiah Jackson, and Bennedict Mathurin. Leonard, who starred during the All-Star festivities — including a 31-point outing highlighted by his clutch play — has embraced the spotlight and the new format, saying he's “up for whatever grabs the attention of the consumer.” His continued elite production this season — with averages near the top of the league in scoring and impact — has made him one of the most talked-about players in a lopsided season for Clippers basketball. Head coach Ty Lue discussed the team's evolving identity and how leaders like Kawhi help set practice standards, while young pieces like Isaiah Jackson and Bennedict Mathurin shared enthusiasm about growth, defensive focus, and building chemistry as the Clippers chase consistency in a competitive Western Conference.
