Summary

The Athletic/Stadium NBA Insider Shams Charania tells Rich why he was shocked by Villanova Head Coach Jay Wright’s retirement and if the 2-time national champion would consider the Lakers’ vacant head coach job, that L.A.’s top priority right now is finding a quality coach to replace the fired Frank Vogel, why the 76ers’ Ben Simmons is making his long-awaited season debut in Game 4 vs the Celtics and not in Game 3, how long the Suns will be without start SG Devin Booker, and why if the New Orleans Pelicans are being smart or way too cautious with Zion Williamson’s return to the hardwood.   Rich vents his frustration at the Pelicans for not putting Zion out on the court for the playoffs, reacts to the “shocking” retirement of Jay Wright and debates if the Villanova head coach would be wise to take the Lakers job. Rich and the guys do a tongue-in-cheek break down on what some of the all-time classic baseball movies like Field of Dreams, Major League, The Natural, and the Sandlot would look like if you applied modern MLB analytics to the storylines.
