The Phoenix Suns are on an impressive 18 game winning streak after knocking off the top tier Warriors - how did their Finals run shape this team in comparison to other Finals teams of the past?

Our in house QB Kyle Anderson explains the process of playing quarterback banged up and how Stafford has lost consistency. What can Sean McVay do to right the ship? Giants are coming off a win but is there any reason to be confident in this offense? Is the only way to look at the Giants is to hate on the offense and Daniel Jones? And is that fair?

In this latest installment of Bleav in the Rockets, after Tom Thibodeau took Kemba Walker out of the New York Knicks rotation on Monday, it appears that his days in the Big Apple are numbered. Should the Houston Rockets flip John Wall for Walker — with reports that the four-time All-Star could be on the move? How would Walker fit with the Rockets? And how would a potential trade work between the two teams? Follow us on Twitter @cotydavis_24, @BleavinRockets, Intro music by Solo Hendrix  

Hour 3: With Steve Cohen and his deep pockets making all the headlines this offseason, is it possible that the days of the Yankees luring all the big name free-agents to New York are over???  While wondering what to do after not receiving a return text from country music star Jordan Davis, Boomer made things much worse for his radio partner by stealing his phone and then doing the unthinkable, it seems like the only things Jerry Recco thinks about is updates, Tom Thibodeau has one goal in mind and Kemba Walker's role in that plan has been greatly diminished and the Booms lets Gio know that he has expectations and expects those expectations to be met during the Morning Show Christmas celebration.  Tis the season… See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hosts Peter Kennedy, Alec Argento, and Andrew Calagna dive into the Hot Stove which includes all the excitement for Mets fans and further frustration for Yankees fans. How does the impending lockout affect free agency? The Mets bring in Max Scherzer, Starling Marte, Eduardo Escobar, Mark Canha, and may not be done - how much does this swing their expectations? And is Steve Cohen already delivering on his promises? Plus, what the Yankees did, or didn't do, that has Yankees fans going nuts. Struck out looking on Corey Seager and now what? So far a lot of nothing. When will this change for the Yanks? Lastly, we discuss the Knicks lineup change as Kemba Walker has been removed from the starting lineup and the rotation overall. Alec Burks is the new starter and more opportunities arise for the likes of Immanuel Quickly, Quentin Grimes, and Miles McBride. Was this the right call by Tom Thibodeau? @SubwaySportsTalk on IG and TikTok and @SubwaySportsTlk on twitter.

Alex goes solo to break down the news that Tom Thibodeau is removing Kemba Walker from the Knicks' rotation in favor of Alec Burks starting and Immanuel Quickley/Derrick Rose off the bench, including an inside look at some of the stats that have defined Kemba's poor start to the season, what Burks brings to the starting unit, and whether Kemba has a path to returning to the Knicks' rotation — or if he could have already played his last game in a Knicks uniform.
