The crew dives into Barry Jackson's latest report on the Miami Heat's direction — is the front office making real changes, or just shifting blame after another letdown season? We're breaking down who's really responsible… and what's next. Is Andrew Wiggins on his way out already? The fit hasn't clicked, and now the Lakers are rumored to have interest. Could Miami send him back West in a shake-up deal? We explore trade ideas and whether it's time to move on. Tyler Herro responds to Stephen A. Smith's claim that the Heat blew it by not getting Kevin Durant. The clip made waves — but did it give us Goosies or No Goosies? We react and revisit what could've been if KD came to South Beach. All that and more as we ask: is this a retool, a rebuild… or just more Heat drama?

Gil's Arena Previews The 1st Round of The NBA Draft as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew break down a HUGE night for the NBA as they welcome in the next class of future superstars. They highlight the biggest star of the night in Cooper Flagg as the Duke phenom looks to join the Dallas Mavericks as the #1 pick and react to NBA legends like Allen Iverson and Kendrick Perkins calling him a generational hooper before he even sets foot on an NBA Court. They also continue the conversation on Ace Bailey skipping pre-draft workouts and get real on how his decision to try and pick where he will play could cause him to slip in tonight's draft. Next, they react to The Boston Celtics continuing to purge their championship roster after trading Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday in back to back days to get under the NBA's 2nd Apron and debate if the C's should continue their teardown with another big move of trading Jaylen Brown or Derrick White or let this team try and compete until Jayson Tatum returns from his torn achilles. They then react to Kyrie Irving agreeing to a longterm extension to remain with the Dallas Mavericks as he rehabs from his torn ACL and debate if Nico Harrison will get the last laugh from the Luka Doncic trade as his team is set with a core of Cooper Flagg, Kyrie and Anthony Davis for the next few seasons, before examining the Kevin Durant trade from the perspective of the Phoenix Suns and discussing the team's next move to try and build around Devin Booker and Jalen Green. Finally, the Gil's Arena Crew crashes out on Stephen A Smith's list of Top 5 players for next season and gives their own breakdown of the best players in the NBA next season.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 140: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: We join the Trump Dictatorship, already in progress. He has attacked Iran, declared undeclared war on Iran, denied he wanted regime change there and is now insisting there should be regime change. And it's all because he has lost America. The Economist polling that has his OVERALL approval underwater in FIFTEEN states… that HE WON LAST YEAR. SEVEN under in Pennsylvania, FOUR under in Georgia, FOUR under in North Carolina, eight under in Michigan, eight under in Pennsylvania. Even CNN’s pollster Harry Enten says “I think we can say Trump has lost the political battle when it comes to what has happened in Los Angeles." CNN has Trump at -15 approval on his key issue: immigration, and -24 among independents. Trump attacked Iran because he has lost America. As a political observer wrote on January 17, 2012, “Obama will attack Iran in order to get re-elected.” And the SAME political observer wrote on October 9, 2012, “Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran. He is desperate.” And the SAME political observer then wrote on September 16 2013 “I predict that President Obama will at some point attack Iran in order to save face,” and as the SAME political observer wrote on September 25, 2013 “Remember what I previously said, Obama will some day attack Iran in order to show how tough he is,” and how finally that SAME political observer wrote on November 10 2013 “Remember that I predicted a long time ago that President Obama will attack Iran because of his inability to negotiate properly – not skilled” – and that political observer was… Donald J. Trump. I'll analyze the consequences of Trump's unconstitutional act - including angering Putin - and the hilarious moment when Pete Hegseth got the location of the target wrong. Plus Trump's nonsensical "I'd especially like to thank God," his lies about being opposed to Iraq, and the small victory: the Senate parliamentarian says they have to strip from the budget bill the move to limit the courts' ability to restrain Trump. B-Block (37:32) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: It's like Champions Week on Jeopardy: Mayor Eric Adams keeps digging, Jake Tapper keeps digging, and Stephen A. Smith is digging so hard to align himself with the reprehensible Candace Owens that at this rate Smith will be forcing ESPN to fire him. C-Block (50:45) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Of all the things you don't expect to come up on Jason Benetti's Detroit Tigers telecast is not one but two ex-pitchers confessing they still have dreams - thirty years later - that the anthem is playing, they are supposed to be pitching, but they cannot find their uniforms or that their shoelaces have been tied together. I'll explain why the mini-PTSD dream has become a nostalgic dream for these guys from my cohort: Frank Tanana, Dan Petry, and me.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, Adam recounts his trip to Palm Springs and how his electric car ran out of battery in the middle of the night. That story sparks a rant about California's looming EV mandate and Gavin Newsom's lawsuit against Trump for canceling it. Adam then tells a hilarious story about “accidentally” giving his vegetarian staff meat tacos and explains his biggest beef with ESPN. He also reacts to a cringeworthy Bill Maher clip featuring Rob Reiner and Amy Klobuchar, and closes out the segment with some sharp observations about Stephen A. Smith's mustache and the possible reasoning behind Michael Jordan's infamous 'stache.In the news, Jason "Mayhem" Miller joins Adam to cover Joe Rogan's claim that two former presidents contacted Spotify over his COVID commentary—which ironically boosted his podcast by 2 million subscribers. They also react to MrBeast's outrageous $500K date night at an empty Disneyland and discuss Candace Cameron Bure's fear that scary movies open portals to Hell. Adam wraps the news segment with a story about the time he was the most terrified in his life, then continues with a breakdown of the recent Indian plane crash. He reacts to a viral video of white protestors blocking a Black woman from getting to work, unleashes a fiery rant on the entitlement of modern-day activists, and explains why he—and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis—believe running over protestors who block traffic might just be justified.

Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese are facing different forms of pressure. Caitlin Clark has been carrying her team and has made an incredible return, recently defeating the undefeated New York Liberty. In that game, she recorded six three-pointers in the first half and finished with 32 points, 8 rebounds, and 9 assists. On the other hand, Angel Reese contributed significantly with 11 points, 13 rebounds, and 11 assists, leading her team to victory over the Connecticut Sun. It's important to note that criticism can diminish delusion and foster humility. Humility is the foundation of progress and evolution, unlike anger or bitterness. This stands in stark contrast to the BIG3 league, where Stephen Jackson, a BIG3 coach, attempted to fight a player and Dwight Howard and Lance Stephenson got into an altercation. That league is unlikely to grow because you can't build anything with anger and a victim mentality. Lastly, Jason Whitlock shares his thoughts on Stephen A. Smith, who was caught playing solitaire on his phone during the NBA Finals. An amazing show today that you won't want to miss.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 138: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: The Minnesota Assassinations and Trump's Toy Tank Parade proved it again this weekend: Without violence, he is nothing. No tanks? No guns? No bombs (to fulfill his FOMO over not getting to bomb Iran)? No threat if you protest you'll be harmed? Beaten, even if you're a Senator? No parades? No Pro-Life Murderers? Without them, Trump is nothing. Unfortunately - as the weekend showed - they are all still here. ON THE OTHER HAND: There is some small respite this morning. They got the 2011 Georgia Crops report and printed it out and pasted in some pictures of Trump or something and made it brief and showed it to him and all of a sudden he TACO’d on the ICE Gestapo round-ups of immigrants. At least the ones in agriculture, hotels, and restaurants because, you know… mass starvation. Well, mass starvation LATER. First, mass lower corporate profits IN agriculture, hotels, and restaurants. As I've cited endlessly since the report came out, in 2011 Georgia warned it would detain all undocumented migrant farm workers. Suddenly all the onions, watermelons, blueberries were rotting in the fields and Georgia farms were going bankrupt because they were 40% short of workers and the Georgia citizens recruited to replace them were no good at the jobs or quit because it was too tough and by the middle of summer Georgia had lost $75,000,000 in agricultural income. So that, times fifty. BUT PHILOSOPHICALLY: Even when the manifestos were found inside the car of the Minnesota Pro-Life Assassin, Senator Mike Lee went on Musk's Disinformation Platform to brand him a "marxist." Or all the fictionalized accounts of the assault on Senator Alex Padilla. Because the key to being infected with MAGA disease is to reach the conclusion that best suits you, then make up the facts to fit the outcome. We will defeat Trump. I don't know how we will defeat this. B-Block (36:11) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: There's always a tweet and for this moment in Iran, it's from Tulsi 2020 Gabbard. Then there are two tales of achieving peak idiocy about the assault on Senator Padilla from opposite directions: Stephen A. Smith, who started with no political experience or insight and has somehow gone backwards, and CNN political director David Chalian, who started as a political director and has ALSO somehow gone backwards. C-Block (49:00) MONDAYS WITH THURBER: Haven't read one in awhile. One of his most pleasing to hear rather than just read: The Car We Had To Push. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
