We open a huge show this week with news of Anthony Davis signing his three-year extension with the Lakers – and while we all knew it was coming, Rob thinks he can contend for MVP this season if he stays healthy because he’s just as good a Jokic! And as Rob runs down all the reasons that he’s just as good – if not better – than all the big men across the NBA, we start taking bets on how many games Anthony Davis plays this season… and Rob contends that he was NOT in shape last season and if he comes in ready he can play 65-70 games. Plus if the Lakers target Christian Wood as recent rumors would suggest, Rob lays out what it would take for him to be successful on that Lakers roster. And can Gabe Vincent steal D’Angelo Russell’s starting job? Rob doesn’t see it happening for a number of reasons. On the heels of Scoot Henderson’s claim that he’ll be Rookie of the Year, Rob disagrees and says that Cam Whitmore will actually win it. And when Gilbert Arenas calls out Team USA, Rob finally addresses the things Gilbert said about his career. We all loved the old-school baseball fight between Tim Anderson and Jose Ramirez this week, with AMAZING audio from Guardians radio announcer Tom Hamilton. And with Kevin Brown’s suspension from the Orioles broadcast crew, has Rob ever been critical of the Lakers and got a call – and he did! Finally the Alabama ferry boat fight that has gone super viral leads us into a hilarious round of Black Crime or White Crime!!
