What is Trending: Utah Jazz lose in Dallas | G League Ignite Going Away | Duquesne Upsets BYU | …

It’s time to get your morning started with the news you need to know news update news upate this is what’s trending with DJ and PK # Utah Jazz Washington Lane into the dunker spot and there’s gaffer trying to finish it couldn’t do it boy Kesler terrific defense done got it lost at the

Washington and now gaffer does finish it blocked by Luca knocked it away going for that loose ball Luca on the floor got it over the shoulder finds Irving and a la this Derek Jones to throw it down what a play long rebound Lowry gets

It on the dribble On The Run big step to the rack the right hand and finishes Lowry with a little aggression on that one The Cutting Irving through the lane right to left and got Stripped by sens of ball Kyrie got it back and gets rid of it in high for the Baseline

Rims out rebound defford at the front of the rim and nearly brings the St down highlights is the Dallas Mavericks beat the Utah Jazz 113 to 97 a perfectly predictable game a perfectly predictable result and a perfectly predictable fourth quarter I me the Jazz were hanging around they

Kind of sort of had a chance to get there but having watched him for the last month I don’t think any of us ever believed they would and sure enough they did not go on a run and Dallas did and they opened up a lead that was kind of

Bouncing around eight or 10 points and they pushed it to 16 and they get the win Colin ston continues to put up a really impressive stat line 20 points nine to 14 shooting the numbers are are eye-catching Marin in who’s been in and out of lineup is uh is back but he’s not

Uh looks like he’s got some Rust to scrape off or something six of 20 I mean that’s eye- catching too just not the way you want it not shooting the ball that well but the Jazz shot 133% from three and if you’re going to be four of 30 from the three-point line

Yeah you’re going to get beat they also got a rebounded had more turnovers so so it goes that was game 70 70 down 12 to go and then we see what kind of moves the front office can make in the off season to either bring in some rookies

And continue a slow rebuild or trade some draft pick some players and maybe there’s an elite player becomes available or a couple of pretty good players come available and they speed this along we’ll see what choices they make but 12 more games to get through first it’s just hard to weigh in on

Anything you see at this point in the season how real is it because we saw stuff at the of last year that wasn’t real so Jazz off today three game NCA road trip ends tomorrow in Houston and then they’ll be back Monday when the NCA tournament’s out of the uh the Delta

Center Houston tomorrow night pregame at five tip off at 6 here on the Zone # NBA steel France took it away from a cumn he’ll run it out he throws it up high and P brings it down oh wow it’s a 20-point game and this place is hopping

Found goes to nikic he’s one-on-one with Bridges throws out of it to Gordon tap past quarter three yes highlights from around the NBA pretty Limited schedule the NBA giving guys a little time off because otherwise you know they’ll do load management L take them off and this the NCA

Tournament so have a light schedule now I don’t realize this the Jazz played Dallas last night Dallas doesn’t play again till they’re here on Monday those highlights you just heard there the Suns beat the Hawks 128 to 115 Devin Booker went for 30 Damen Lillard

Went for 30 is the Bucks beat the Nets now the Bucks seem to be solidifying themselves after being a yo-yo through the top four teams in the East they seem to be solidifying themselves second place in the East 10 and 1 half games behind the Celtics who

They’re going to have they’re going to have home court all the way through the playoffs but the Bucks seem like the best Challenger in the East Cleveland Cavaliers still without Donovan Mitchell the Champs the Denver Nuggets who are battling Oklahoma City for the best record in the west Denver picked up a

Win they beat the Knicks 113 to 100 the g-league ignite will fold after this season citing the changing basketball landscape including the nca’s name image and likeness policy in the Advent of collectives and the transfer portal as its primary reasons the ignite have n n current NBA player alumni and

Multiple draft prospects on this roster so that number nine could go higher but why would you go play in Anonymous g-league gyms to make money which is what they offered up hey here’s a professional path when you can play in a full gym be the Big Man on Campus play

On network TV have your high school coach and your aou buddies and all that see you and still make a large amount of money I was told the name image and likeness to years ago I’ve said this a couple times two years ago that the

Number was 2 and2 million it seems to be migrating North to about 3 million now if you want to build an NCA tournament team seems to be a pretty common number in the Big 12 and that if you want to excel their teams going north of that I was told specifically yeah Illinois

Should be is well north of that I don’t know if that means four five or six nobody would give me a number on that but now you know what I know cuz there’s lots of talk about this as an NCA tournament if you want to talk about

This stuff that building’s the place to be right now DJ and PK # col basketball Paul half court heave no good out of bounds duaine can do 7167 their first NCAA tournament win since 1960 9 as they knock off BYU got it to GOI turn around three-pointer shot no

Good but the rebound comes down Oakland covers it gki got it back he wants another three that one is good Goki did it again 10 made three-pointers a five-point lead for Oakland FY inbounds can run the Baseline right side they have a time out he gets it in they got a

Foul they get it ahead Timberlake he goes in oh the dunk attempt was blocked but they call a foul a foul on state McCrae Timberlake hit the deck oh it looked like a good block but it’s a foul and going to be free throws for Timberlake with 14.7 seconds

Left well it looked like a good block because it was a good block as a matter of fact it was a great block a chase down and if you swing all the way through you do catch him but hit it at that exact moment he’s getting ready to

Dun it just poke it out and knocked the ball off the backboard and the replay showed it was clean and the refs missed it in real time it happened fast the crowd was booing some of them maybe realized it wasn’t a foul but the fact is outside of the Kansas fans in that

Building everybody everybody wanted Kansas beaten Kansas had an enormous lead was basically I think it got I know it got to 22 it was a massive lead they completely blew it they were turning the ball over all night and getting away with it cuz they were shooting I was sit

Next to somebody at that game and say how do you turn the ball over this many times and have this this uh halftime lead and a guy looked at me he goes well they’re shooting 69% from the floor and 60% from the three-point line and we both laughed was ridiculous Kansas

Catches a major break and they escape 9389 not the Cinderella ending that Ryland Jones the former Olympus High player wanted as he came back to Utah they nearly pulled it off but and there were other mistakes throughout the game Miss fre throws they got down by 22 all

That kind of stuff had long stretches where they couldn’t hit a shot Kansas survives the upset bug the big upset of the day is Kentucky getting beat by Oakland 80-76 how does that happen we always say well you know if he makes some three-pointers yeah and uh the Oakland

Grizzly Sharpshooter Jack Gokey 10 three-pointers so that’s how that happens and Coach Cal’s got a terrible tournament record the last uh five or six years and there you go shocking upset it was awes because the uh crowd every time they put it up on the screen they cheered and when they were taking

It down during the game they booed they were taking it down during the game because the crowd was reacting completely inappropriately to what the game was going on on the floor and I guess they they worry hopefully players in the zone and they don’t notice but I

Guess they were it could distract or something Mark was distracted by it he was not happy they kept taking it down and the crowd kept booing because Gonzaga was up by 25 and they paid to see a boring game and they love seeing the Oakland game hey BYU beaten by Duane

7167 yes the question of the day we’ve got reaction from cougar fans if you were just listening in the last segment you heard Mark Pope used the word devastating at the start in the middle at the end uh it sounded like a funeral I mean it wasn’t really a funeral but it

Was a funeral for the inaugural Big 12 season because that season was too good to have it end that way that team was too good it should not have ended that way and yet it did end that way and I thought J Drew uh you know trained

Professional and he’s done it for years I think he asked the questions all cougar fans wanted to know and you could hear Jay’s voice right there at the start why do you start so poorly in both halves I mean we always talk about what a great locker room speech they came out on

Fire I mean I can’t believe Pope was in there with all right you guys know we’re going to stumble again now right you know you’re not good enough I mean it doesn’t look physical it looks psychological and after they get into it yeah they they get back and they get

Back in the game but it’s too big a hole and of all the things I was talking about yesterday one of the things I thought and I believed and it absolutely did not happen is BYU had more big guys and should have had an advantage inside but Troy Khalifa and Waterman

Combined five of 21 it didn’t even shoot 25% and there’s no way I would have come out and predicted that yesterday morning it wasn’t the threes that sunk him they shot 33% that was good enough they didn’t shoot enough threes Pope’s been preaching all year 33 pointers we have

To get up 33 pointers they got up 24 I mean when it came to rebounds they got it done they had a 3529 Advantage But ultimately they give you points for shots and the shots didn’t go in the the big guys really struggled and and Khalifa I mean he’s a

Bigger guy but he took four three points and two two-pointers so they had the size Advantage I thought they could use it clearly they didn’t well we’ll get more on this coming up we got a bunch of your reactions uh but I think that was every bit as brutal a

Loss as you heard in Mark Pope’s voice in that post game that was a lot of people’s Blood Sweat and Tears and the regular season matters and you can’t take away the 23 wins and it was certainly a good debut in the Big 12 but

But this is a team that hasn’t been in the round of 32 since Jimmer and Jimmer’s playing three on three Hoops going to the Olympics and that was more than the decade ago and there’s too many people investing too much money and too much time in a BYU program that now

Isn’t going from uh from the West Coast Conference but it’s coming from a platform like the big 12 it’s got to be better I mean you just got to be Dukan but instead they’ve got their first win in 55 years in the NCA tournament mixed bag for Western teams Oregon

Rolling through the Pack 12 tournament they had to win it to get in and they did and now that they are in they’ve beaten South Carolina that’s an 11 beating a six just as Duane was an 11 beating a six and NC State who had to win their

Conference tournament they had to win the ACC to get in they win their six straight postseason game and they beat Texas Tech 80 to 67 so that’s 31s beating 3 six seeds with with Duane Oregon and NC State all advancing first round continues of course the game we care most about here

Is Utah State TCU that’s to the end of the day slated for 755 which I think in NCA time means uh 8:15 but you know we’ll see TBS tip off at 755 Scotty G will be on the air at 7:25 and he will be on the air at 905 this morning and

We’ll talk NCA tournament with him DJ and PK # NFL it’ll be a big neon sign that says open and we’ll uh I don’t think I don’t like it blinking that kind of messes with my eyes but yeah we’re uh we’re always going to be listening you

Know I think you know we’ll always have the conversation you know uh we may not get to a point where the deal makes sense whether it’s at four or anywhere we’re picking but we’re always going to have the conversation and if it makes sense and it if it’s attractive to

Building our team and then it’s something that we’ll certainly consider no matter where we’re at in the draft that’s the Cardinals general manager Monty Austin Ford saying all the things you would expect a general manager to say oh I’m open at anything we’re examining all options be awesome

They got up there listen man I got a golf I’m not going to examine all these options most of them aren’t going to happen anyway you know it I know it let these pretty boys sit up here and run their mouth I got a tea time the thing about the fourth pick

This year is the top three three picks are expected to be three quarterbacks so when you get to four it’s first shot at everybody else in the draft now often that means find a super disruptive defensive lineman or find the left tackle who’s going to lock it down for you for a

Decade and maybe some team sees somebody in value some player and wants to go there but I think it’s pretty much a forone conclusion in this draft that it’s going to be an elite wide receiver which Elite wide receiver is up to you there are multiple I thought for a long time it’

Be Marvin Harrison and I thought he was a guy I’m biased with my West you know watching more Pack 12 football and all that I mean I know LSU’s got good receivers again they got a track record there they’ve had good receivers they have them now and they will have them in

The future uh but ad dun I thought at Washington was just spectacular he just goes and gets the ball and will make the contested catch he’s a big guy but whoever you like Arizona’s open for business Jets offensive tackle Tyron Smith called his four end of free agency

After 13 years with the Cowboys speaking of people who you know go lock it down right as a stressful but said he’s excited to be with the Jets I just feel like they have all the pieces together right now and they getting the final pieces this offseason to produce a team

That can go all the way I would be stunned if that happens but I get that you’re feing his position you’re going to think that I think the Jets have to get to the playoffs but if Cincinnati’s healthy the Jets are better and then there’s Kansas City obviously heck in their own

Division are they going to be better than the bills I expect double digit wins with Aaron Rogers there and with the pieces they’re putting around him and they’ve got a good wide receiver and they went and added another good wide receiver they’ve added a tackle I mean

They’re addressing a lot of these issues so they ought to be good but man Aaron Rogers had it better in the NFC there just aren’t as many good teams there a third man was charged with second deegree murder Thursday in connection with the shooting during the Kansas City chief Super Bowl rally and

Parade that killed a woman and injured nearly two dozen others so that continues on DJ and PK hashtag college football the SEC announced their 2025 conference opponents in League which will expand to 16 schools this year will continue playing eight conference games plus at least one other power four

Program annually SEC you’re soft in basketball everyone’s complaining of Big 12 the big 12’s you know G the system yeah they’re gaming the system well that’s what the SEC does with eight conference games come on guys play 10 and don’t play other power four teams you’re raing all the other

Conferences power four really isn’t getting used used anymore by anybody nobody really believes that the ACC and the Big 12 have as much money and have as as good a chance to compete as the Big 10 and the SEC you got these enormous leagues we want to see these

Marquee programs play each other you’re going to tell us how tough the schedule is you’re going to have eight conference games and then we’re going to look and and you you played Vanderbilt so now there’s only seven good conference Games it’s weak but works for the SEC at least it has worked we’ll see if it continues to work going forward personally I believe it will but we’ll see DJ and PK # Major League Baseball show ha otani’s Representatives requested a foral police investigation into the alleged massive theft of money

From Otani including his former longtime interpreter and friend IU Zahara if I pronounced that right I hope I did This story could go a lot of different ways this is a crazy story I don’t I’m racking my brain when have we seen anything like this the stories of managers ripping off athletes was really common in my dad’s generation Fighters ending up bankrupt and all that kind of

Stuff but I think there’s a level of professionalism as the money has gotten better players have gotten pretty good at handling it so I don’t I don’t hear that much like this this story is something so I don’t think I think that their request is more

It it puts a good look that Otani that something happened to Otani and he is the victim here I don’t think they have to worry about a massive police investigation oh I think the investigation is coming I don’t have to worry about that you’ll get your investigation you can’t have that kind

Of gambling that close to the sport of baseball I think you could close to other sports but not Baseball which is a weird thing to say but it just seems to be how it works DJ and PK # RSL all right get your soccer fixed this weekend The Royals are at home tonight North Carolina courage third place team last year and they came out and blasted

Houston 5 to one in their opener they’re facing the uh the Royals who got shut out at home last week they’re looking for their first goal they’re looking for their first win they’re looking for their first point and that’s tonight at 7:30 RS s’s on the road at Vancouver

First kick at 5:30 coverage begins at 4:30 with the RSL pre-match show from Vancouver that’s tomorrow just to be tomorrow yes because I can’t be in two places at once so that’ll work out better for me although they will go head to-head later this year and for RSL

Vancouver’s off to a great start Vancouver just picked up a pair of Road wins they went to San Jose and Dallas and won and uh in a sport in a league where that’s pretty unusual they actually dropped points at home they they tied their opener but seven points

Through three games Vancouver is flying they’re off to a great start and they are traditionally bottom half of the West Colorado Vancouver San Jose punching bags that’s where you go to pick up some points but maybe it’s different in Vancouver this year and they have Demir klock rl’s

Former Captain who did not start the last game started each of the first four they were in the Champions Cup and got knocked out and Demir started in those he didn’t start last week but uh International Duty Fafa Pico has gone for Vancouver so deir will be back and
