Monty & Jake are talking NBA Finals: Is it over? LeBron scores 51 in a loss...Steph explodes in Game 2 and wins ...the guys don't see a way back for the Cavs. Where does LeBron end up next season? Is LBJ a good fit in Philly? Monty has doubts, but does know where LeBron will end up! Should NFL Players ask for a sit-down with Donald Trump? The guys discuss the merits of sitting down with the NFL's nemesis. The NL West remains the wildest division in MLB, Jake says it's wide open! Monty has stats that say June 1 is a significant date for 1st place teams ...which the Cubs are not! The Padres continue to do good things, but will they be sellers at the deadline, the guys say they better be! A long weekend of Fortnite play led to some self reflection ...and not in a good way!

Monty & Jake are talking NBA Finals Gm 1...Was it JR Smith's fault the Cavs lost ...Monty says NO! George Hill is getting a free pass for missing the free throw and KD is getting a free pass after not scoring in the 4th qtr and OT, and giving up the now infamous rebound to JR. Did LeBron quit in OT? Can the Cavs find a way to come back from that kind of loss? The Red Sox and Astros are playing a big series in Houston, is it an ALCS preview? Can the Giants get back to winning consistently with Panik, Pence, and Melancon coming back? Can the Dodgers deal with another Kershaw DL stint, and will the Padres trade Ross or Richard in the division? Monty opens up about his weight on National Donut Day!

Monty & Jake are talking NBA Finals! Are you bored with Warriors V LeBron? Monty says it's not the Cavs, it LeBron...and the NBA needs a new rivalry. The guys agree this is a Warriors win and a swan song for LBJ in "The Land". Ty Lue gave a very compelling interview about his healthy before the game, Monty says he was brave to do so. The Patriots are not "Fun" or "Happy" ...WHO CARES...they win! But does it matter? Speaking of fun, the Cubs are wearing on people nerves, but is it a good thing the Cubs are no longer "lovable"? Does Kershaw's return signal the return of the Dodgers? Did Yu Darvish make a mistake when he said Cubs fans don't like him? Why are the struggles of Jackie Bradley good news for the Red Sox? Can men wear crocs...with tube socks?

Monty & Jake are talking Draymond Vs Klay. Which one is more important to the Warriors? Is it a lock KD comes back to Golden State? If you could pick Paul George or KD ...which one would you take? Monty has strong opinions about Lonzo Ball and why the Lakers should considering trading him. The guys talk about NFL Owners working with Donald Trump on the kneeling issue. Should they be? Testimony from depositions in the Colin Kaepernick collusion case shows NFL owners talked with Trump and supported his position ...is it wrong? Will players actually boycott? The guys disagree on what it will take for players to sit out in support of Kaepernick and Reid. The Cubs lose again ...Monty is not happy. The Giants are getting Bum back ...Jake is not certain that will make a difference in the NL West. Monty has a message for Padres fans. Why was Kim K in the Oval Office?

Monty & Jake are reacting to the Warriors win over the Rockets, and wondering if the Rockets can make it back next season with cap issues and aging talent. Is CP3 worth $20M next season? Can the Rockets count on him to be healthy? Jake has serious doubts. The Celtics on the other hand, are in GREAT shape...but Marcus Smart wants $12-$14 Million, Monty says Marcus is not so Smart! Monty is heartbroken about Anthony Rizzo, who had another controversial moment at the plate in Pittsburgh, Monty has had enough. The guys talk about San Diego legend Ted Leitner, who announced he has cancer, Monty says it's time to appreciate "The Legend of Uncle Teddy".

The guys debate the impact of the game on LBJ decision to leave "The Land" ...why are the Celtics so different on the road? Monty knows exactly why! Jake does not react well to Montys harsh words for KD's rough Game 5, who is right? Is the series over without CP3 for the Rockets? Can the Rockets expect James Harden to step his game up while he is in the middle of an 0/20 3 PT slump? The guys debate President Trumps Twitter use and the courts ruling Trump can no longer block people on Twitter ...and the guys discuss POTUS having a rough time with facts during his US Naval Academy speech!

Monty & Jake are talking NBA Playoffs; Monty is disappointed in the Conference Finals, blowouts and mismatches mean boring TV and that's not good for the NBA! Is the winner out of the West presumed to be the Championship favorite? The guys discuss the Rockets chance to come back. The NFL is considering suspending players who kneel during the anthem, Monty says that would be a BAD idea, while Jake thinks the NFL has to do something. The guys talk about the ESPN's list of 100 most famous athletes and note the lack of a single baseball player on the list ...not even one! Why is that? Who is the face of baseball? Can the Diamondbacks find a way to survive yet another injury, and the lack of offense? Are the Red Sox the best team in baseball? The Astros have the arms but are they the best? Monty has list of the worst passenger habits in the airline industry!

Monty & Jake are talking NBA Playoffs, as the Cavs and Celtics get ready for Game 4, can Boston re-setablish their dominance? Can the Cavs prove Game 3 was no fluke? Did the Warriors retake their mantle as the best team in basketball? Monty wants to know why Harden and CP3 get a free pass on their shooting slumps, Jake says the reason is obvious. Tom Brady is not at OTA's for the Pats ...is there trouble? Monty says your damn right there is, and Jake says TB12 is not worth the trouble...harsh words ensue! The guys get in to the Cubs chase of Manny Machado, is it worth it? Should the Cubs chase Machado now or Bryce Harper next winter?

Monty & Jake are talking NBA Playoffs! Is what we saw in Boston going to continue in Cleveland? Monty says the Cavs don't have the balance Boston has shown, and that is the difference in the series! In the West the Rockets are looking for a way to slow down KD, can Clint Capela do the job? Monty continues to beg, desperately beg, the Cubs not to trade for Manny Machado, instead they should chase Chris Archer! The guys talk NL West, can the Rockies win the Division? The DBacks have been hit by the injury bug again so anything is possible. The Salt Lake Tribune announced big layoffs this week, and Monty was disappointed in how some reacted.
