Summary

6/26/25 - Hour 2 The guys talk NBA Draft, and Rich shares his favorite memories of former Buffalo Bills QB Jim Kelly’s induction weekend at the Pro Football Hall of Fame back in 2002. Rich and the guys debate if Josh Allen would be elected into the Pro Football Hall of Fame if he retired today. ‘All the Smoke’ podcast co-host Matt Barnes joins Rich in-studio where he explains why the 76ers should have drafted Rutgers’ Ace Bailey 3rd overall, says if an NBA conspiracy led to the Dallas Mavericks getting to draft Duke’s Cooper Flagg, breaks down a possible reason behind the league’s rash of Achilles injuries, says how he would improve the NBA if he were commissioner, reveals what it was like enjoying the high life with veteran players when he was up-and-coming, why he has no love lost for his former coach Maurice Cheeks, and talks about his media expansion into baseball, golf, and more.
