The Games of the XXXIII Olympiad, Paris, France. The Summer Olympics were a joyous celebration of athletic greatness. The USA reigned supreme on the basketball court and dominated gymnastics as well as the track and field. The women took the gold on the soccer field. There were a number of controversies that affected the outcomes of events. No conspiracies but there are grumblings under the surface that I hope one day are revealed. We saw some very enjoyable events and some amazing outcomes in sports we never paid attention to before. But the Olympics were fun and we will share our choices of the best events that we watched. What did you enjoy most?

Inside The NBA on TNT has been a standard bearer for basketball analysis of high profile games during the season and playoffs, for almost thirty five years. Ernie Johnson Jr. has been the host since 1990, Kenny "The Jet" Smith since 1998, Charles Barkley since 2000 and Shaquille O'Neal since 2011. They are writers and producers on the show as well and have built an amazing following over the years. It is disappointing to hear that the league, who gave them five days to match an offer received from Disney, NBC and Amazon Prime Video, did not accept the offer from TNT's parent company, Warner Bros. Discovery. Inside The NBA is an institution, garnering 19 Emmys over the years for their work in Sports Broadcasting. There will be future conversations about a coming law suit by TNT against the NBA to appeal the decision. Look out for the New Edition tribute to Inside The NBA by yours truly. Do you think the NBA should bring the Inside Guys back??

Russell Westbrook is traded to the Utah Jazz for guard, Kris Dunn. He is then released and is headed to the Denver Nuggets to replace the departed shooting guard, Kentavious Caldwell Pope, KCP. The Clippers meanwhile have lost Paul George in free agency and now Russ is gone. How well will their fan base sleep this off season with questions also facing Kawhi Leonard who has left Team USA, who is preparing for the Olympics. How much does Russ have in the tank to help the Nuggets return to prominence and get back to first, the conference finals and then the NBA finals and another title? What are your thoughts?

The Lakers take Bronny James with the 55th pick in the 2024 draft. Social Media has gone wild with people taking sides on whether the Lakers as an organization did the right thing for the team or was LeBron James wishes the most important thing? Whatever the case, the pick is controversial. Bronny averaged 4.8 points a game in a shortened season due to health issues that didn't allow him to play a full season. All we can really do is hope and pray he's fully recovered and he is going to develop before his dad's career comes to an end. Will they force him out on the floor before he's developed a NBA game for the sake of legacy? So many takes on what is right. What is your opinion?

This is a recap of the 2024 NBA Draft. Two rounds over two days and a lot of emotion is displayed as new millionaires are living their dreams. The first two picks are from France, the third pick, Reed Sheppard is the best shooter in the draft as he is shooting 50-50-80 and a quality player for the Houston Rockets. We review the Top 10 picks and jump around the draft for the most probable players to have an impact this season. Zach Edey's stocl fluctuated like there was a recession. He didn't bother to attend the draft, we think because of the embarrassment it would cause if he was to fall down too far. Surprisingly he was taken at number 9 by the Memphis Grizzlies. Rob Dillingham out of Kentucky went with the eighth pick to the Spurs and traded to the Timberwolves. Two players from the two time champion UCONN Huskies, Stephon Castle and Donavan Clingan are lottery picks at number 4 and number 7 respectfully. The pick at 55 became a bigger story than we could handle in this episode, so we are dedicating episode 10 to Bronny James. Stay tuned.
