They then discuss the free agency moves around the league, most notably by the Giants and the Patriots.

Finally, they discuss whether LeBron should have more MVP awards.

Fritz, Kris and Riley are back for a full NBA episode in which the trio looks into the Anthony Davis achilles injury and how it will impact the Lakers going forward this season.

They then debate which big man you would want in which context: Embiid, Jokic or Anthony Davis, and finish the episode by discussing the Knicks acquisition of Derrick Rose. 

Fritz, Kris and Riley are finally back to preview Super Bowl LV between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Kansas City Chiefs.
