One of Detroit's best and brightest sports minds, Loreal Cartier joins the pod this week for a heavy news cycle. Philthy correctly predicted Jokic in 5 but is Denver built to last? Miami has some work to do too if they want to get back to the finals. We introduce a new segment: Athletes with Pods! KAT is on drugs, Ja gets his other wrist slapped, and some player movement on the horizon w/ breaking news as it happened. In the NFL: Diggs has beef, another minicamp holdout for a new contract leads to a bigger question, and we wonder how sustainable the NFL is with bigger money to QBs and zero dollars for RBs.

And we had to get Lo to give us the state of the Pistons after their recent coaching hires and sells us on the Lions. Which isn't that hard cuz we love a high powered offense in the NFL.
