About this episode

On today's episode, Jason gets the party started by sharing his thoughts on the PGA Tour merging with LIV Golf after years of publicly shaming the golfers who defected to the Saudi-backed golf league. This sudden change of heart feels like it was made out of necessity; perhaps the PGA Tour wasn't as solvent as they led us to believe. Either way, you can't blame a big business for making what they deemed to be a good business decision. Later, J-Mac goes deep on the latest surrounding Kyrie Irving's attempt to recruit LeBron James to the Dallas Mavericks. First off, are we sure Luka Doncic is even on board with Kyrie calling the shots on his team? Secondly, if Dallas does give in to Kyrie's list of demands, would it actually hurt their team's long-term outlook? This is definitely a situation that bears monitoring. Finally, Jason closes the show with his Best Bets for Game 2 of the NBA Finals between the Denver Nuggets and Miami Heat.
