Summary
Chris and Rob debate whether or not Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow can afford to be cautious and sit out the first 4 games of the upcoming season to rest his calf strain and discuss the wild narrative that Damian Lillard isn't really a 'winning' player that makes his teammates better. Plus, DraftKings podcast host Mike Golic Jr swings by to share his thoughts on conference expansion throughout college sports, how much NIL and the transfer portal factored into these decisions, the biggest threat to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC, the San Francisco 49ers' unusual handling of Trey Lance and much more!

| 0:30.6 | Brousso and Rob Parker. Rob, let's stick. We talked a little bit last hour about Anthony Davis, and we're going to stick with the NBA. |
| 0:42.7 | Of course, everyone is waiting on this Damien Lillard trade. |
| 0:49.4 | Fans, executives on other teams. |
| 0:52.4 | Is it going to happen? |
| 0:53.3 | Of course, the Miami Heat. We'll see. I think it will. I'm not positive. We'll see. It just doesn't make sense for Portland to bring him back. They want to put the ball in Scootley-Hen-Henterson fans. But also, I think when Kevin Durant said he wanted out, they didn't flinch Brooklyn and they waited, Chris, |
| 1:11.9 | because they couldn't get what they wanted at that time. So I'm just saying it might happen, |
| 1:18.0 | but it might not happen. It might not happen when they wanted to happen. I think there's a couple of |

| 1:28.7 | to trade Duran. No, I get that. We weren't even really open to it. And obviously, Portland is |
| 1:34.8 | ready to move on from Dame. And also, Rob, and look, I still think that the Nets |
| 1:42.4 | blew it. And I don't know that they would have won the championship. |
| 1:47.6 | I picked them to get to the finals. You picked them to win, I think to win the championship |
| 1:51.4 | had they stayed together. Rob, I don't think Kyrie got more money than he would have |
| 1:57.5 | gotten had he stayed with the Nets. And in fact, I think had he stayed with the nets and taking them on a deep playoff |
| 2:07.3 | run alongside Kevin Durant, or who knows, maybe to the finals, I think his value would |
| 2:12.5 | have been higher. |
| 2:13.5 | Instead, he went to Dallas. |
