Hour 2: King Me

ESPN, Stephen A. Smith, Molly Qerim Rose
About this episode

In this episode, Stephen A. Smith, Shannon Sharpe, and Dan Orlovsky debate who should win MVP: Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson? Marcus Spears joins the show just in time for Stephen A. and Shannon to go back and forth on LeBron passing Michael Jordan for most 30-point games in NBA history. We debate if Mike McCarthy is more likely to be fired by the Cowboys or leave on his own for another job. The crew decides if Mike Tomlin deserves more credit or criticism right now and we react to the Patriots firing Jerod Mayo after 1 year as head coach.
