Episode Details

Ken lays out an uncomfortable theory that nobody around the Cavs wants to pay Donovan Mitchell the 70 to 80 million dollar supermax extension he could command, which could make this his final season in Cleveland. He and Daryl Ruiter debate whether a championship run would change the calculus, with Ken admitting he'd only push to re-sign Mitchell if the Cavs actually win it all this year. The two also revisit Greg Swartz's James Harden trade criticism, with Ken now wondering aloud whether the deal that sent out Darius Garland was actually a mistake given Harden's playoff struggles. The segment closes with a preview of Guardians TV analyst Al Pawlowski joining the show to talk Cooper Engel and the team's injury situation.
