Summary
Chris and Rob discuss whether other sports leagues like the NBA and the NFL should follow MLB’s lead after they retroactively integrated Negro League statistics and take Oklahoma City Thunder executive Sam Presti to task for essentially saying that it’s unreasonable to expect NBA players to play a full 82-game season. Plus, NBA champion and FOX Sports Radio NBA analyst Antonio Daniels swings by to discuss whether the Minnesota Timberwolves have it in them to comeback from down 0-3 to the Dallas Mavericks, the narrative that Minnesota should look to trade Karl-Anthony Towns this offseason, why the timing was perfect for Ty Lue to extend with the Los Angeles Clippers and much more!
