Summary

ESPN NBA analyst Richard Jefferson and Rich discuss how difficult it really was for the Lakers to win the NBA title in the league’s Orlando bubble, why he’s standing by his “Giannis Antetokounmpo is a Pippen” take, where the 2-time defending NBA MVP could end up if not with the Bucks, and if he can make any sense of Kyrie Irving’s latest foot-in-mouth comments throwing shade at LeBron James (2:36). Hall of Fame play-by-play announcer Jon Miller and Rich Eisen reflect on the passing of his friend and former broadcasting colleague Joe Morgan (22:31). The week wraps up with Chris Brockman’s Sneaky Good Games, and Rich’s Under the Radar Games for the NFL’s Week 6 in the Bengals vs Colts, Ravens vs Steelers, and Bears vs Panthers, followed by a call from comedian/Brockman’s significant other Sarah Tiana who vigorously defends her Atlanta Braves and their annoying “stirring it up” gesture (47:11).   Thank you to today's sponsor: Microsoft Teams = Now there are more ways to be a Team.
