I heart radio Fox Sports Radio and FS1 one hour from now where Colin was right where Colin was wrong. I've got thoughts on fury and wilder

NFL Combine beginning today all the players have arrived. There's a packer story. The GM says I'll take a quarterback in the first round potentially loaded today. Joy Taylor is joining me. We both went to the fight this weekend. How much fun was that joy?

It was an unbelievable scene. I don't think I've seen that many people in Vegas before. Everybody ever.

My homes was right to my right behind me. Steve Harvey. I had James Dolen of the Knicks. Mark Davis owner of the Raiders. It was a scene for sure. Heavyweight fights do that.

So let's start with this Lakers beat the Celtic Chester. I don't take much from the game itself. Campbell Walker did not play for the Celtics. You know, he's their point guard. It matters. It was a it was a it was a fun game. The teams played hard. Jason Tatum is really emerged as a go to star. He's popped.

You know, he's still a baby. He's not even 22 years old yet. So he's he's kind of popped. But here was my takeaway and all this. You know, you read the stats. It's Anthony Davis 32 points and 13 rebounds.

Who took the shot late in the game. LeBron did. This is LeBron's team. Do not forget. This is LeBron's team. I've seen an NBA team led by Anthony Davis. Seven years. They made the playoffs one time.

One one playoff series in seven years. I've seen an Anthony Davis lead team. There is a big gap in the NBA between talented. Oh, Anthony Davis has absolutely that. And a leader.

The three best leaders. I've seen in my life in the NBA are Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson and LeBron James. You know what they all had in common.

Four minutes to go. Three minutes to go. Two minutes to go. One minute to go. 30 seconds to go. They all had the ball in their hands. It's hard to be a leader. I'm sorry. When you're waiting for somebody else to pass you the ball.

LeBron James late in the game. Could have dished it. Decided I'll take this into my own hands. And why would anybody trust Anthony Davis to be a leader?

Do you know what he averages in the fourth quarter this year? And that's with the great distribution town of LeBron. Four points.

He averages 22 points in the first three quarters and then disappears in the fourth. That's with LeBron. That's being LeBron's only teammate he can trust. That's being LeBron's most talented teammate.

He averages four points in the fourth quarter. That is 60th in the NBA. People tell me he's the second best player. 60th with LeBron. Not a ball hog. More than willing to pass his field goal percentage plummets in the fourth quarter.

53 and a half percent to 40 percent. He's not even the same player yesterday one for six in the fourth.

The reputation on Anthony Davis and I heard this when there were rumors that the Clippers were getting a little anxious. The Lakers could get Anthony Davis.

And people were saying, Oh, with the Clippers one Anthony Davis. And you know what I heard the Clippers fear was he soft. He's never played hurt LeBron now is forcing him to play hurt.

And you can't trust him late in games. That is not to say I don't like Anthony Davis a lot, but I'm watching that game yesterday in my takeaways. Uh oh, it's getting tight. Give the ball to the guy can trust the guy I can trust is LeBron James.
