Metta World Peace and Rich discuss the recent rash of fan behavior and if we could see another Malice at the Palace incident between players and fans if it keeps up, his advice for NBA players who find themselves accosted by an angry fan, why he’s not worried about the Lakers chances to beat the Suns despite the latest Anthony Davis injury, and why he’s jumping into the boxing ring at the age of 41. 

Rich reacts to Naomi Osaka’s withdrawal from the French Open following her $15,000 fine for boycotting the press citing mental health issues and if fans and media are right to criticize her decision, and if professional athletes are obligated to answer questions as part of being a public figure.

Rich and the guys wrap up the hour previewing the night to come in the NBA with Rich recanting his Tyler Herro-Giannis take as his worst ever.
