The guys react to a report by Brian Windhorst that if a trade for Bradley Beal happens between now and next Thursday, observers will be "very surprised" by how little a Beal trade nets the Wizards if they trade him before next week's NBA draft. The main reason for that is Beal's robust contract, as he signed a five-year, $251.0 million supermax extension last year, which included a no-trade clause, and Anthony opens the phone lines to get your feelings and where you stand with the song (1:21:05-1:45:32). Andrew shares a story with Anthony about a San Francisco Giants pitching prospect Keaton Winn when he got called up to the big-league club it was his first time stepping into a major league ballpark.

Anthony counters with a story about 76-year-old women from Ecuador who was presumed to be dead but astonished relatives when she started knocking on her coffin. News breaks simultaneously from Adrian Wojnarowski and Shams Charania that Bradley Beal and Washington Wizards are working together to get a trade worked out (2:06:07-2:29:00). On the heels of the Bradley Beal news, Anthony runs through the odds of likely landing spots for Lebron James, Damian Lillard, James Harden, Kyrie Irving and more. Anthony takes a few more of your calls to close out the with your feelings on the Phillies bringing the song back and a possible trade to land Bradley Beal (2:29:00-2:57:49).
