About this episode

On today’s episode, Jason takes a verbal victory lap following Jayson Tatum’s dominant Game 2 performance against the Toronto Raptors, and reminds us all that he was calling the Boston Celtics star a top-10 player in the NBA two weeks ago. Jason also tells us why the New Orleans Saints could be stuck between a rock and a hard place when it comes to negotiating with disgruntled star running back Alvin Kamara, and explains why it’s clear that the return of college football has become highly politicized by both President Donald Trump and challenger Joe Biden. Plus, NBA champion Corey Brewer swings by to help preview Game 7 between the Houston Rockets and the Oklahoma City Thunder, and he explains why Houston needs to lean on James Harden – not Russell Westbrook – in crunch time, discusses which team has a better chance of upsetting LeBron James and the Lakers, and much more! Plus, Jason puts his gaudy 75% win percentage to the test in the Wednesday edition of The Best Bet.
