The Yankees keep winning series, and C-Mac is here to break it all down, but not before having his fun at the expense of the rival Red Sox, who are officially a mess after firing manager Alex Cora and five members of the coaching staff (3:55). Chris celebrates Boston's rock bottom, then reacts to Luis Gil's demotion and Jasson Dominguez's call-up from Triple-A, and what it might mean for Giancarlo Stanton (16:16). Plus, Anthony Volpe is nearing a return and may take playing time away from Jose Caballero, who has been playing much better of late (30:40).
We dive into NFL Draft storylines from Days 2 and 3, focusing on the Jets trading up for Cade Klubnik and his fit for Frank Reich. After hitting on the Giants and Jets' other picks, Jerry updates us on Carlos Mendoza's job security and Boomer's skepticism over Alex Cora taking a mid-season role. We hear Mendoza's post-game thoughts, look at a similar managerial hot seats in Philadelphia, and recap Luis Gil's demotion after a rough outing. Finally, Boomer pitches a retirement cruise to Nova Scotia this August for Eddie.
We break down the Knicks' Game 4 win and the Mets' "pile of crap" sweep that has Carlos Mendoza on the hot seat and Alex Cora in the conversation. Between NFL Draft analysis for the Jets and Giants and the Yankees' series win despite Luis Gil's demotion, we cover Trevor Bauer's no-hitter and the NBA and NHL playoffs. From Mike Tomlin's Aaron Rodgers prediction and the Savannah Bananas at Yankee Stadium to Le'Veon Bell's wild accusations and Boomer's Hall of Fame nomination, we hit every angle—including a potential retirement cruise for Eddie.
We break down the Knicks' Game 4 win, Mike Brown's adjustments, and Josh Hart's defense while Mikael Bridges stayed benched. Then it's the “pile of crap” Mets getting swept by the Rockies, sparking firing rumors for Carlos Mendoza and a potential race with the Phillies for Alex Cora. Gio explains why David Stearns won't hire a veteran like Girardi or Showalter, Jerry recaps the Mets' double-header disaster and Mendoza's defense of his roster, and we cover the Yankees' loss to the Astros and Luis Gil's demotion. Finally, we go around the NBA playoffs and revisit the Mets and Phillies both potentially hunting for Cora.
Jerry's got Ron Darling and Gary Cohen talking about Mendoza's job and how it's also on the players. We heard from Mendoza after the game. They are having the same conversations in Philadelphia as we are having about our manager. Luis Gil had a bad outing and was sent down to the minors. Plus NBA & NHL headlines.

NY Yankees vs. Houston Astros MLB Pick Prediction by Tony T. Yankees at Astros 2:10 PM ET— Luis Gil will start for NY. Gil in three starts carries an ERA of 4.11 with WHIP of 1.17. The right hander fans 13.8% with 12.3% walks. Ground balls served at 42.2% with 2.35 home runs per nine innings. A FIP Of 7.30. Spencer Arrigheti is starting for Houston Arrighetti last year had seven starts with an ERA of 5.35 with WHIP of 1.42. The righty fanned 19.9% with 12.8% walks. Ground ball rate of 38.6% with 1.53 home runs per nine innings. In two starts he allowed three runs with thirteen strikeouts in eleven innings.
Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Tuesday. Munaf Manji and Dave Esler are back on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed with a full Tuesday session covering all three NBA playoff Game 2s and a deep pass through the MLB card before landing on official best bets for the night. Dave opens the episode processing a Monday night wash where a Nuggets team total over looked comfortable at halftime before a 21-point Denver fourth quarter killed the ticket, while a Royals-Orioles game over that appeared dead at 1-0 in the ninth inning came alive in extra innings and ended 7-5 in the 13th. The previous episode's best bets went one and one with Donovan Mitchell clearing his 27.5-point prop and Shohei Ohtani's home run at plus-230 falling short after pitchers chose to walk him twice on the night. The first game of Tuesday's playoff card has Boston entering as a 14.5-point favorite over a Philadelphia 76ers team still without Joel Embiid, recovering from appendicitis, and Dave wastes little time making the case for the total staying under for the second straight game after a 32-point Celtics blowout already went under in Game 1 despite Jayson Tatum, Derrick White, and Payton Pritchard combining to shoot just 5-of-23 from three. Munaf leans Sixers team total under and expects another 120-plus performance from Boston once the perimeter shooting corrects. The Spurs-Blazers segment centers on Victor Wembanyama's historic 35-point playoff debut that set a San Antonio franchise record, with Dave making a sharp case for Portland at 11 to 11.5 points and the total going over as both teams figure to shoot closer to normal from three in Game 2 after the Spurs hit 47 percent and the Blazers shot just 26 percent in Game 1. Munaf zeros in on Jrue Holiday, who produced 11 assists and four rebounds on a miserable 4-of-15 shooting night in Game 1 and nearly cleared his combined points-rebounds-assists number anyway, backing Holiday over 26 combined at minus-123 on DraftKings as his best bet of the episode. The Rockets-Lakers game is dominated by the Kevin Durant game-time decision, with both hosts leaning under given Houston's defensive identity and the Lakers playing without Luka Doncic, and Munaf targeting LeBron James's rebounds and assists over and Reed Sheppard's three-point prop as the cleanest plays in an otherwise murky betting environment. Dave goes through the baseball card with a lean on the Reds full game and first five under with Chase Burns against Steven Matz, an over lean in Kansas City behind the wind blowing out and skepticism about Shane Baz and Kris Bubic matching what Kyle Bradish and Seth Lugo did Monday night, a Boston lean in Yankees-Red Sox with Connelly Early against a struggling Luis Gil, and a Cardinals lean over Miami despite some ambivalence about Dustin May facing Chris Paddack. Munaf flags the Guardians' strong bounce-back record but avoids Parker Messick after a 112-pitch no-hit bid in his last outing. Best bets are Nolan McLean carrying the Mets first five innings against a Twins offense that has never faced him and has been among the weakest in the American League, and Jrue Holiday's PRA over 26 combined.

NY Yankees vs. Tampa Bay Rays MLB Pick Prediction by Tony T. Yankees at Rays 7:10PM ET— Luis Gil gets the start for NYY. Gil had 11 starts carrying an ERA of 3.32 with WHIP of 1.30. The right hander struck out 16.8% with 13.5% walks. Ground balls sat at 31.4% with 0.79 home runs per nine innings. A FIP of 4.62. Drew Rasmussen gets the start for Tampa Bay. Rasmussen had 31 starts posting an ERA of 2.76 with WHIP of 1.02. The righty fanned 25% with 2.5% walks. Ground balls came in at 46.4% with 1.80 home runs per nine innings. In two starts he allowed three runs with ten strikeouts in ten innings.

Los Yankees de Nueva York aparecen vinculados en conversaciones comerciales por el abridor de los Cerveceros de Milwaukee, Freddy Peralta, junto a equipos como Mets, Dodgers, Gigantes y Bravos. Además, la reciente adquisición de Ryan Weathers podría allanar el camino para que los Yankees utilicen su profundidad de pitcheo como moneda de cambio. Nombres como Will Warren, Luis Gil, Elmer Rodríguez-Cruz y Brock Selvidge/Lagrange podrían volverse más prescindibles en un posible movimiento grande. ¿Es Freddy Peralta la pieza que falta en la rotación del Bronx?

On the flip side, we unpack the Yankees' struggles with runners in scoring position, Luis Gil's short outing, and the bullpen collapse that put this one out of reach.

Luke Weaver doesn't look like the same guy who helped the Yankees late last season. Luis Gil isn't missing enough bats.

BT and Sal ripped into the Jets' "putrid, inexplicably bad" 0-4 start, with BT questioning if Aaron Glenn is truly the answer, citing the team's abysmal tackling, constant penalties, and boneheaded mistakes that show no improvement from the "Same Old Jets" narrative Glenn promised to end. Sal, while acknowledging the disaster, argued Glenn needs time, but conceded the noise and pressure of the New York market may doom him. Shifting to baseball, they debated the Yankees' Wild Card roster, surprised that top arm Luis Gil was left off in favor of Paul Blackburn. Finally, they wrapped with a fiery "Bald-Faced Lie, Bald-Faced Truth" segment, declaring the Mets will make the playoffs in 2026 (Truth), Darius Slayton will not lead the Giants in receiving yards (Lie), and Max Fried will have a better pitching line than Garrett Crochet in Game 1 (Truth).
BT and Sal dove into the Yankees' Wild Card roster, expressing both excitement for postseason baseball and major concerns about the team's composition. Sal was flabbergasted by the inclusion of Paul Blackburn over Luis Gil, calling Blackburn's presence a sign that the Yankees are in "big trouble" if he has to pitch. The hosts debated whether the defense, the bullpen management, or the configuration of the everyday lineup (especially the Ben Rice/Austin Wells situation) poses the biggest threat to the team's World Series aspirations. Despite some skepticism, BT gave GM Brian Cashman credit for the trade deadline acquisitions, noting the team suddenly has a "grit" that was missing before.
The Mets bounced back after Ryan Helsley blew a save and beat the Phillies. They will go for a sweep tonight. Tim Hill bailed Fernando Cruz out of a jam after Luis Gil gave the Yankees five strong innings in their win over the Nationals. The Yankees and Mets will play at Yankee Stadium on the 25th anniversary of 9/11 next year. The season is starting on Wednesday, March 25th. That's very early!
Hour 1 Jerry and Willie Colon fill in for Boomer and Gio, discussing the start of college football season, which Willie and Eddie love, unlike NFL-fan Jerry. They feel old watching sons of players they grew up with. The Mets beat the Phillies, with controversy around Juan Soto's timeout and appreciation for Francisco Lindor. Willie hopes parabolic mics and this series turn the Mets around. The Yankees and Giancarlo Stanton continue their success against the Nationals. C-Lo's update covers Brandon Nimmo's walk-off, Edwin Diaz's save, and Jonah Tong's upcoming MLB debut, which Jerry believes will spark the team. Jerry and Willie agree Stanton is a Hall-of-Famer and enjoys playing outfield. The Yankees gained a game as the Blue Jays blew a lead. The Giants waived Tommy DeVito, and the Jets cut Malachi Corley. Finally, Jerry asks Willie about Burning Man, leading to a discussion of his sandstorm experience in Arizona, whether he could perform in an "orgydome" at his age, and which former teammates and show crew members he'd take. Hour 2 The hour begins with the engagement announcement of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. Willie discusses prenups, having one himself, while others on the show do not. Eddie sees prenups as a sign of mistrust. Jerry wonders if the engagement will help Kelce focus on the upcoming season. A caller provides a female perspective on prenups. C-Lo, who also lacks a prenup, provides an update. Jerry and Willie note that cheating isn't exclusive to men. In sports, the Mets beat the Phillies, Giancarlo Stanton led another Yankee win, and Shedeur Sanders made the Browns' initial 53-man roster. The hour concludes with Jerry telling Willie about Shaun Morash's bet that Travis Kelce will incorporate Taylor Swift's last name into his. If so, Evan will take his wife's name as payment. Jerry and Willie agree with Evan's stance but wouldn't have risked the same wager. Willie emphasizes athletes' need to protect earnings, especially in the NFL. Hour 3 The hour began with a discussion on Micah Parsons' hold-in and alleged back injury, with Willie and Jerry expecting a deal, though Willie notes the difficulty of returning to play immediately. NFL cutdown day saw the Jets release Malachi Corley, prompting Willie to suggest they need another receiver. Willie also explained how small-school players are scouted, calling the combine overrated. C-Lo returned with an update after a segment on the Jerry Jones Netflix documentary, which C-Lo and Jerry are enjoying. The conversation then shifted to concussion protocols then versus now. The Mets beat the Phillies after Ryan Helsley blew a save and are going for a sweep tonight. The Yankees won against the Nationals with Luis Gil pitching five strong innings, saved by Tim Hill. The Yankees and Mets will play on 9/11 next year, with the season starting unusually early on March 25th. C-Lo presented musical clips, including Evan and Shaun singing "Tong" and Gary, Keith, and Ron singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," leading to a discussion on karaoke songs. The hour concluded with Jerry sharing a coincidence related to a small college and then discussing excitement for college football. Finally, Jerry recounted a story about a man in Wisconsin who faked his death to leave his family and meet a woman, now facing jail time. Hour 4 The final hour begins with Jets radio voice Bob Wischusen, following Willie's story about Mike Tomlin using “In the Air Tonight” to motivate his team. Bob discusses the Jets' potential for a good season, expressing optimism about their chances of playing meaningful games in December. C-Lo returns for his final update, where Willie learns about "Al" after CBS Sports Network aired Jerry's "fraud" clip. Ryan Helsley blew the Mets' lead, but they won in the 9th. Giancarlo Stanton drove in all five Yankees runs in their win, leading Jerry to call him a first-ballot Hall-of-Famer. C-Lo wonders what Travis Kelce had left to say proposing to Taylor Swift, while Jer ...
Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner break down MLB Tuesday betting. The latest MLB Tuesday betting preview from RJ Bell's Dream Preview podcast, hosted by Munaf Manji with Griffin Warner, sets the stage for a critical slate of late-August matchups as teams position themselves for the postseason. The episode dives deep into 14 games on the betting board, breaking down pitching matchups, recent team form, and value spots for bettors. Manji and Warner are riding an 83% hot streak on best bets, going 10–2 in their last 12, and their confidence and banter drive an engaging analysis that blends sharp betting insight with humor and strong statistical breakdowns. The show begins with Red Sox vs Orioles, where Lucas Giolito's improved form and Kyle Braddish's return from Tommy John make Boston and the over intriguing plays. The Braves vs Marlins matchup highlights Sandy Alcantara's struggles, with Warner leaning to the home underdog Marlins and the over on 7.5 runs. In Rays vs Guardians, Shane Baz's road splits and Cleveland's sputtering offense create strong value on Tampa Bay plus money. The Yankees vs Nationals discussion centers on Luis Gil's control issues and the Yankees' defensive problems, leading both analysts toward overs rather than trusting either side. Toronto vs Minnesota showcases Chris Bassett's dominant home record against Bailey Ober's brutal losing streak, making the Blue Jays run line their clear best bet of the day. The Mets remain a “fade” team, with Sean Manaea's poor record and Jesus Luzardo's strong history against New York cementing Philadelphia as the sharper side. Brewers vs Diamondbacks is pegged as a potential shootout, with Jacob Misiorowski's walk issues and Arizona's power threats pointing to an over. Royals vs White Sox highlights Chicago's lack of offense despite Martin Pérez's decent outings, pushing Kansas City as the stronger side. Other key breakdowns include Pirates vs Cardinals (leaning over), Angels vs Rangers (under 8.5 tabbed as Warner's best bet despite Corbin's volatility), and Astros vs Rockies (only playable through alternate run lines given Houston's -315 price). Padres vs Mariners positions Dylan Cease as a value underdog against a hittable Luis Castillo, while Cubs vs Giants trends under behind Matthew Boyd's road splits and Justin Verlander's home tendencies. The card wraps with Reds vs Dodgers, where Nick Martinez's inconsistency and Clayton Kershaw's diminished form suggest the over nine runs is the sharper angle. Beyond game analysis, the hosts highlight Pregame.com promotions, including a Beat Greg Shaker college football contest with $1,000 in prizes and a 20% sitewide discount using the promo code SLUGGER20. This synergy between MLB betting insights, college football contests, and broader handicapping content reinforces Pregame's role as a hub for sharp sports betting information. From an editorial perspective, the podcast succeeds by pairing statistical depth with practical wagering advice, appealing both to seasoned bettors and newer fans seeking guidance. The mix of trends, fantasy baseball angles, and promotional tie-ins keeps the content dynamic. My commentary is that the show's value lies not just in picks, but in its process: highlighting faulty lines, identifying exploitable splits, and stressing the importance of context when interpreting numbers. The betting insights are actionable, but the broader lesson is that line shopping, injury context, and market awareness are as crucial as raw stats. Late-August baseball handicapping, with best bets on Blue Jays run line and Angels vs Rangers under anchoring a comprehensive breakdown. As playoff races tighten, bettors get both sharp picks and a reminder of Pregame.com's broader offerings, making it a must-listen for anyone serious about MLB odds, betting strategies, and value plays heading into September.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner break down MLB Tuesday betting. The latest MLB Tuesday betting preview from RJ Bell's Dream Preview podcast, hosted by Munaf Manji with Griffin Warner, sets the stage for a critical slate of late-August matchups as teams position themselves for the postseason. The episode dives deep into 14 games on the betting board, breaking down pitching matchups, recent team form, and value spots for bettors. Manji and Warner are riding an 83% hot streak on best bets, going 10–2 in their last 12, and their confidence and banter drive an engaging analysis that blends sharp betting insight with humor and strong statistical breakdowns. The show begins with Red Sox vs Orioles, where Lucas Giolito's improved form and Kyle Braddish's return from Tommy John make Boston and the over intriguing plays. The Braves vs Marlins matchup highlights Sandy Alcantara's struggles, with Warner leaning to the home underdog Marlins and the over on 7.5 runs. In Rays vs Guardians, Shane Baz's road splits and Cleveland's sputtering offense create strong value on Tampa Bay plus money. The Yankees vs Nationals discussion centers on Luis Gil's control issues and the Yankees' defensive problems, leading both analysts toward overs rather than trusting either side. Toronto vs Minnesota showcases Chris Bassett's dominant home record against Bailey Ober's brutal losing streak, making the Blue Jays run line their clear best bet of the day. The Mets remain a “fade” team, with Sean Manaea's poor record and Jesus Luzardo's strong history against New York cementing Philadelphia as the sharper side. Brewers vs Diamondbacks is pegged as a potential shootout, with Jacob Misiorowski's walk issues and Arizona's power threats pointing to an over. Royals vs White Sox highlights Chicago's lack of offense despite Martin Pérez's decent outings, pushing Kansas City as the stronger side.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner talk MLB betting for Friday. Munaf Manji opens by previewing the weekend MLB slate, noting tightening division races and their current 6-0 best bet streak, aiming to match last year's 10-0 run. Griffin Warner jokes about his long commute before they dive into Friday's matchups. They start with the Cubs hosting the Pirates, Braxton Ashcraft versus Colin Rea, Cubs -196, total 9. Griffin cites Pittsburgh's weak road offense and bullpen reliance, favoring Chicago, possibly the under if the wind is in. Munaf highlights Chicago's strong record after losses, with Rea solid at home, backing Cubs -1.5 at -105. For Phillies at Nationals, Zach Wheeler faces MacKenzie Gore, PHI -175, total 8. Griffin notes Wheeler's home run troubles but likes the over; Munaf recalls Gore's two earlier meetings with Philadelphia and prefers PHI -1.5. In Texas at Toronto, Jacob deGrom meets Chris Bassitt, TOR +101, total 7.5. Griffin declares the Rangers' season “cooked” and picks Toronto, telling an “inside the pork” joke. Munaf cites Bassitt's dominant home record and leans Blue Jays and under. Miami at Boston sees Sandy Alcantara against Lucas Giolito, BOS -163, total 9. Griffin doubts Alcantara's form and leans over; Munaf notes his road over trend and favors BOS team total and full game over. Atlanta at Cleveland has Hurston Waldrep against Joey Cantillo, CLE -120, total 9. Griffin cites ATL injuries and poor road form, liking Cleveland; Munaf notes Atlanta's 23-38 road record and backs CLE. Seattle at New York Mets features Luis Castillo versus Sean Manaea, NYM -111, total 8.5. Griffin distrusts the Mets' bullpen, leaning Seattle; Munaf notes Mariners' road success in Castillo starts but with some caution. Baltimore at Houston matches Brandon Young against Framber Valdez, HOU -243, total 8. Griffin doubts Young's MLB quality; Munaf cites HOU's 8-3 home record with Valdez, backing -1.5. Chicago White Sox at Kansas City pits Aaron Civale against Noah Cameron, KC -180, total 9. Griffin dislikes KC as a home favorite but doubts CWS; Munaf sees value on CWS. Yankees at Cardinals has Luis Gil versus Andre Pallante, NYY -126, total 9. Griffin says STL sold key pieces; Munaf sees Gil in form and likes NYY. Arizona at Colorado, Brandon Pfaadt against Tanner Gordon, ARI -180, total 12. Griffin calls Pfaadt unpredictable, leaning over; Munaf notes Coors Field overs profitable, siding with over and slight COL lean. Angels at A's has Yusei Kikuchi versus Jack Perkins, near-even odds, total 10. Griffin favors whichever is underdog; Munaf leans under due to Kikuchi's poor road record. Tampa Bay at San Francisco pits Joel Boyle against Landen Roupp, SF -122, total 8. Griffin notes SF's poor offense and Boyle's HR issues, liking TB plus money; Munaf favors SF for Roupp's form. For best bets, Griffin takes Guardians -120 over Braves, citing motivation disparity, while Munaf picks Cubs -1.5 against Pirates based on their strong post-loss performance and Rea's reliability.

Hour 1 Jerry started the show with Boomer, joined by Gio later. Boomer raised questions about attending Aly's wedding and a Florida trip. Jerry's constant exclusion was discussed, though he denied being upset, especially about not being left out of the Pebble Beach trip. They then spoke to Aly about her wedding. Jerry highlighted differences in California wedding customs (no cash gifts, no suits). They discussed Anthony Volpe's hitting but fielding struggles, with Boomer suggesting time off. Jerry wanted Paul Goldschmidt to improve at first base. The Mets' heart of the order struggled in a 7-1 loss. After a chair swap, Gio reviewed what he missed due to car issues. A caller confirmed Gio's theory about smaller men wanting to fight him. Hour 2 Gio discusses a comet theory and a controversial Sydney Sweeney ad. The hosts dismiss the Nazi propaganda claims. Jerry gives an update. They discuss "Big Intern's" departure and future interns. Cody Bellinger's homer led the Yankees to a win. The Padres beat the Mets. Jose Iglesias had a good game. Juan Soto left with an injury but isn't concerned. A dildo appeared at a WNBA game. Trey Hendrickson ended his holdout. Finally, Boomer and Gio advise a caller on his first golf outing. Hour 3 Gio is surprised Mets fans want Luis Robert Jr., while Boomer and Gio agree the Mets can't give up on Mark Vientos despite his struggles. Boomer is intrigued by trading for Robert Jr. if it doesn't cost Vientos, and wants to see the Mets add pitchers. He believes the Mets will eventually have to move on from one of the young infielders. Is Steven Kwan a better target? Gio wonders why Rob Manfred was in the Phillies clubhouse. Jerry provides an update, but first, Boomer asks which Mets third baseman would be easiest to trade: Ronny Mauricio, Brett Baty, or Mark Vientos? Gio says Baty, Jerry says Vientos. Gio will not be happy if the Mets trade Mauricio or Vientos. The Mets lost their final late-night game. Juan Soto's foot X-rays were negative. Gio observed something new about Dave Sims. Anthony Volpe's bat contributed to a win, but his glove did not. Getting traded must be difficult. Boomer thinks the NBA could expand into Europe. In the final segment, Gio shares an update on trying to go to Streamsong the weekend of NFL Week 1. They could do the show from the resort on Monday, but not Tuesday. The alternate who would go if Boomer and Gio can't calls in, encouraging them to make the trip. Hour 4 Boomer and Gio discuss Giants and Jets camp, with the show at Giants camp tomorrow. They also cover NFL expectations, Aaron Glenn, and a Streamsong trip. Jerry provides an update, and Boomer sets Mets and Yankees trade deadline over/unders. Upcoming interviews include Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston, Brian Daboll, Dexter Lawrence, and Jevon Holland. The Yankees beat the Rays, and Pete Alonso's reaction might have led to Huascar Brazoban's demotion. Luis Gil returns Sunday. The Mets lost badly. Justin Fields is back at Jets practice. Aaron Glenn is improving the Jets. The Moment of the Day: An object on the court. They discuss NL playoff threats, believing the Padres are dangerous but not the Brewers, and Gio gets angry at fans complaining despite championships.

Today's word of the day is 'working' as in going to work as in Vladdy Jr. as in the Blue Jays as in Juan Soto. What are we talking about? Vladimir Guerrero Jr. said he asked for 14 years but fewer than $600 million. He said he didn't want Juan Soto money, but he did want the years! Is he going to get close to that? (9:45) The Yankees are falling apart before the season begins. Luis Gil is out. DJ LaMeheiu is out. Giancarlo Stanton is out. (14:50) What is the latest on Shohei Ohtani? Did he have a setback? Is he going to pitch this year? (20:20) So You Wanna Talk to Samson!? Someone asked me if I ever put a player on an innings limit because I knew he'd be traded later in the season… wow. (31:48) Review: All We Imagine as Light. (34:15) Athletics are back in the news. A new team president. New renderings. A new extension to a young player. So much positivity… but where is the stadium? (46:50) NPPOD. (49:20) Mark Cuban shared his thoughts on the Luka Doncic trade. Oh boy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
