Co-host of ESPN’s ‘Hoop Streams’ Kendrick Perkins and Rich discuss what the Kawhi Leonard knee injury impacts the Clippers’ chances to best the Jazz in their West Semifinal series, if Chris Paul’s positive Covid-19 test will slow down the Suns’ momentum, why the Milwaukee Bucks are a “dumb team” and lack basketball IQ, why the Hawks will force a Game 7 with the 76ers, and which open NBA job is the most attractive.

Baseball Hall of Famer Rod Carew tells Rich how baseball has changed over the decades but that cheating has been a constant in the sports long history and that today’s players should stop complaining about it so much, why MLB should institute rules to limit or outright ban The Shift, who was the best hitter he ever saw (the answer WILL surprise you), and the batting tip he’d give to Angels two-way star Shohei Ohtani to improve at the plate.

Rich wraps up the hour making a BOLD bet in reaction to the Jaguars, fresh off drafting Trevor Lawrence #1 overall, saying they’re not sure how their QB competition will play out before Week 1.
