Today’s word of the day is ’trade me’ as in Kyrie Irving finally gets his wish. He gets sent to the Dallas Mavericks to join Luka for half a season… maybe more. The Big 3 Era in Brooklyn was a disaster. Kevin Durant must be happy. James Harden ran away as fast as he could. Now Ben Simmons is left there. Why did the Nets do it? Why didn’t Kyrie go to the Lakers? Now what? (19:20) Let’s explain what happens during arbitration again. Max Fried went up against the Braves and lost. Luis Arraez went up against the Marlins and won. Does it mean anything? (28:10) Review: Gunther’s Millions. (31:30) Shohei Ohtani is going to play for Japan in the World Baseball Classic. The New York Yankees are not allowing Luis Severino to play for the Dominican Republic. (39:30) NPPOD. (42:10) Fernando Tatis Jr is doing his redemption tour right now. He needs to be back in the good graces of the fans.

The Brooklyn Nets are cursed and I love it. That's what they get for stealing the team from New Jersey!
