WHAT’S THE 411 PODCAST EPISODE #9 DETAILED SHOW NOTES
WHAT’S POPPIN’ PART 1:
The NBA PLAYOFFS are finally here, and the excitement is building.
Q. Was the run-up to the playoffs anything that you could have predicted?
UFC fighter Conor McGregor will always remember Brooklyn. McGregor was arrested and charged with felony criminal mischief charges and misdemeanor assault, menacing and reckless endangerment after McGregor and his entourage stormed the Barclays Center and threw a hand truck at a bus full of fighters after a news conference for UFC 223.
Q. Is Dana White and the UFC done with Conor McGregor or, will he return?
The Baltimore Ravens signed Robert Griffin III and Colin Kaepernick fans are livid.
Q. Are Kaepernick fans justified in their outrage over the RG III signing?
QUICK BITES:
• Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton was involved in an accident when his Ferrari F12 was rear-ended by a dump truck. According to TMZ, Newton was not injured.
• Former Patriots tight end Jermaine Wiggins told TMZ that he believes that Rob Gronkowski is frustrated with Patriots because he’s not being paid what he’s worth.
• University of Alabama guard Collin Sexton announced that he was “officially declaring” for the 2018 NBA Draft! Sexton is the first player to attend Alabama for one season before leaving for the NBA since the league added the “one and done” rule before the 2006 draft.
• Red Sox minor league prospect Michael Chavis just lost 80 games’ worth of his player development (and salary) thanks to testing positive for DHCMT a banned substance.
• Congrats to Villanova Wildcats on winning the NCAA Men’s Basketball tournament.
Quick Question: Augusta National Golf Club officials don’t like the phrase, “Dilly Dilly” and threatened to throw out anyone who uttered the words, Dilly Dilly in an effort to crack down on unruly fans.
Q. Is this silly, silly?
Poppin’ Part 2
Welcome back to What’s The 411Sports. Professional golfer Tiger Woods made a comeback appearance at the Masters in Augusta this past Weekend.
Q. What’s the verdict?
Russell Westbrook praised James Harden’s accomplishments for this season but stopped short of an MVP endorsement.
Q. Was this a back-handed compliment or, is Westbrook not counting himself out?
PHOTO OF THE WEEK:
Our Photo of the Week is a photo of Brooklyn Nets rookie center Jarrett Allen blocking a shot at the rim by Milwaukee Bucks forward Jabari Parker. The Nets defeated the Bucks 119-111.
NY SPORTS REPORT
Welcome back to What’s The 411Sports. It’s time for our NY Sports Report.
Let’s have a little fun with baseball.
Q. Right now, looking at both New York baseball teams, who has a better chance of playing in the World Series?
LeBron James to the Knicks for the 2018-2019 NBA Season?
A billboard went up near Madison Square Garden attempting to recruit LeBron James to the Knicks. Dwyane Wade says good luck with that one.
Q. Do you think LeBron James would ever consider the NY Knicks?
The Brooklyn Nets threw a wrinkle in the Milwaukee Bucks game plan. The Bucks were looking for a win over the struggling Nets to move up in the NBA Eastern Conference playoff standings, but the Nets beat the Bucks 119-111.
Q. In light of the Nets win over the Bucks, there’s a question floating, why do teams who are out of the playoff picture have to play so hard?
ATHLETE OF THE WEEK:
