Hosts Will Alimonos and Zach Bishop break down a jam-packed episode covering the latest NBA media-day developments, fantasy football pain, a heavy slate of NFL picks, college football upsets, and the closing moments of the MLB regular season. Expect a conversational, game-by-game NFL preview, betting angles, and candid takes on roster news and injuries. The show opens with college and NBA talk (00:00:48) — including a reassuring two-minute Jason Tatum video, tempered expectations on his recovery, coach Mazzulla's tone and tactics, and how missing pieces (Fred VanVleet's season-ending injury, Kevin Durant's ongoing point-guard search, Reed Sheppard's readiness) shift the contender landscape. They also hit Al Horford's new Golden State deal and toss out quick NBA futures bets for the season. The conversation transitions to football (00:06:07) and a full NFL recap (00:11:10). The hosts confess fantasy mishaps (00:21:34) and debate whether late scratch news should spark commissioner intervention. From there, they dive into weekly NFL picks — Rams over the Niners on a short week, a Vikings–Browns preview, Colts vs. Raiders breakdown, Saints vs. Giants reasoning, Cowboys–Jets chaos, Ravens vs. Texans concerns, and betting notes like a Bowers anytime TD (+195) and a Vikings–Browns under play. College football gets the spotlight (00:31:53) with Virginia's OT win over FSU, Oregon edging Penn State, Boise State at Notre Dame, Vanderbilt's surprising start, and the wild post-upset scenes. They also highlight standout performances and preview the next big matchups. Baseball coverage digs into playoff races (00:54:44), Yankees/Red Sox implications, the Guardians' late surge, the Mets' collapse, and the incoming automated ball-strike challenge (00:57:57) — weighing accuracy versus flow. The episode closes with an NBA preseason preview (01:03:21) as Will and Zach mix betting strategy, weekly NBA futures stances, and candid takes on what to expect over the next seven days: injuries to monitor, sleepers to target, and bold picks to watch as the NFL and NBA seasons heat up.

With the NBA's 2025 summer league in the books and the Rockets giving what will likely be their final standard contract to defensive wing Josh Okogie, Houston appears set to enter the 2025-26 season with Fred VanVleet, Amen Thompson, and Reed Sheppard as its primary ball-handlers and play initiators among rotation players.After a brief but underwhelming stint in Las Vegas, Tuesday's show explores whether Sheppard is up for the point-guard task, as well as whether Thompson is ready to take on the type of on-ball responsibility that Jalen Green often did last season. The episode also breaks down how recent signings such as Okogie, JD Davison, and Isaiah Crawford could potentially fit into the equation as training camp nears.

On this episode of the Kevin O'Connor Show, Tom Haberstroh hops on to discuss the instant classic between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Oklahoma City Thunder and of course the latest trade rumors as we inch closer to the deadline. Kevin and Tom both agree after Wednesday night's statement victory, the Cleveland Cavaliers are bona fide NBA title contenders. KOC points out the Cavs' depth is full of unsung heroes like Ty Jerome and Dean Wade. They know the matchup might not be the sexiest when it comes to TV ratings, but who cares! They both want to see these two teams face off again in June and luckily for fans these 2 teams face off again next week (if only Chet Holmgren was healthy!)The guys broke down the chances of the New Orleans Pelicans actually moving Zion Williamson now that he's back in the lineup and looking great. Tom's idea: why shouldn't the Spurs take a swing for Zion? Pairing Williamson and Wemby might be the modern day equivalent of Shaq-Kobe when it comes to unstoppable duos. The trade chatter didn't stop there: each of the guys give their take on where Bradley Beal and Jimmy Butler could wind up, too. While Golden State Warriors fans wish Steph Curry would get some help, the guys explain why GSW may stand pat. And speaking of "Pat," Riley and the Miami Heat might be better off tanking for Cooper Flagg at this point. Fresh off Tom attending Duke's last game, Tom and Kevin discuss the ultra-talented 18-year-old.
