Hey guys, it's us, the Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions.

Winning on clay is an art. The rallies are relentless. And at the French Open, only the toughest survive. I'd know. I competed there for decades.

What's up, fam? It's Isaiah Thomas. And I'm CJ Toledano. It's our favorite time of the year on our podcast, Point Game, the playoffs. We're digging into the biggest surprises of the season, and I'm looking back on some of my greatest playoff moments. If we didn't talk ever again, I was part of it. You just understood. That's how personal it got. Wow.

Chapter 2: Where was Colin right and wrong in his sports predictions?

619.678 - 639.444 Joe Jonas

I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, hey, Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Just listen.

The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis, and I know firsthand because I competed there myself. I'm Rene Stubbs, and on the Rene Stubbs Tennis Podcast, I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garros. Every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on clay. Genshin win. I mean, she went down to three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted.

746.979 - 767.937 Rene Stubbs

She's an outsider to win the French, right? And she likes clay. Listen, Lena Rabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now. And I actually can win on any surface. Because if she's serving well, good luck. Consider this your courtside seat to the French Open.

Chapter 3: What insights does Nick Wright share about Wemby's dominance in the NBA?

3013.925 - 3034.918 Robert Griffin III

I remember Brady wasn't at camp and Rodgers wasn't at camp. And you could say, yes, 100% justified. Brady did it after he won Super Bowls. Rodgers did it after he won Super Bowls. But Lamar Jackson's a two-time MVP. He's a proven player. They know what they're going to get from him. And he's been there for the majority of the offseason workouts.

0

3034.898 - 3047.859 Robert Griffin III

So, you know, we're not talking about Marlon Humphrey not being there. We're not talking about Calais Campbell not being there. Shout out to my guys. I'm not trying to throw them on the bus. There's just more of a situation of these are veteran players that are also leaders on the team. And I get it.

0

3048.12 - 3067.591 Robert Griffin III

You got Declan Doyle there, the new offensive coordinator, and you want him to work in with Lamar. And I think Lamar has done that by being present. And if Lamar Jackson is missing offseason workouts that are voluntary, I mean, we both know Allen Iverson said we're talking about practice here. Practice. Yeah, I'm OK with that.

0

3067.971 - 3087.654 Robert Griffin III

If he's given back to the community, which I've seen him doing, he got his jersey retired. He's out there playing with the kids. All those things. I think Trump going to a voluntary workout. But at this point, it is about perception. And I think Lamar has been aware of that, which is why he's shown up more in recent years instead of skipping out on the entire program.

Chapter 4: Why could the Knicks finally win their first championship since 1973?

3088.316 - 3089.88 Robert Griffin III

But I think it's a complete non-issue.

0

3090.738 - 3114.501 Colin Cowherd

So the two schedules that jumped out to me, one of them is the Kansas City Chiefs. So this team, when they let go of Trent McDuffie and Joe Tooney the last two years, those are two great players in their prime. They are now old at key spots and unproven at others outside of Creed Humphreys. There's some old guys and unproven guys. They face six Pro Bowl quarterbacks in a row late in the year.

0

3114.953 - 3137.537 Colin Cowherd

That's a lot. I mean, if you go last year, the Lions and the Giants had similar runs against Pro Bowl quarterbacks, and it just unraveled their seasons. And not only to the defense, but if you're a quarterback and you look at that schedule, you're like, do you start pressing? Because let's be honest, you're playing a great quarterback. You're thinking about it all week.

0

3137.557 - 3142.783 Colin Cowherd

I think the Chiefs schedule is outrageously brutal. Do you think it matters?

0

3143.405 - 3162.685 Robert Griffin III

Um, I think it does matter. And I think it was done on purpose. Um, you talk about like the mindset of a quarterback when you're going into a weekend, you know, you're playing the creme de la creme. It's a more competitive thing for you. It doesn't mean if you show up there and you know, the quarterback across from you is, is, you know, not good at all. Like you're not going to work hard.

3163.066 - 3180.668 Robert Griffin III

It's just more of like, you take that competitiveness of, I got a hall of famer or a pro bowl guy, all pro across on the other side. I want to show that I'm the best guy. And coaches look at it that way, too. So, yes, it does matter to the players. But I think this is even bigger for the NFL.

3180.85 - 3200.777 Robert Griffin III

They understand that Patrick Mahomes is coming off of a significant knee injury, and they probably didn't want to load the schedule too early with those types of games. But they know that as the season goes on, if Mahomes does play week one, he's only going to get better and more healthy as the year goes on, you would assume.

3200.817 - 3222.585 Robert Griffin III

So backloading the schedule really puts the Chiefs in a situation where, yes, you have to finish strong, But hopefully your quarterback is now at 100% when you go into those games and the offense is clicking on all cylinders. So I think it's a very strategic move by the NFL to backload the schedule, not knowing what Patrick Mahomes is going to be like early in the year.

3223.266 - 3232.457 Colin Cowherd

All right, Aaron Rodgers just spoke to the Pittsburgh media, told them this will be his last year in the NFL. What is your, yeah, how's that land for you?
