HOUR#1- Michael Porter JR has been traded!!! Massive news coming out of Denver, as the Nuggets and their new brain trust have been busy as ever during the first couple days of NBA free agency. The Nuggets send MPJ to Brooklyn, they also trade for backup big man Jonas Valanciunas, and bring back fan favorite Bruce Brown. We discuss it here on The LowDown.
- NBA free agency continues to get down to the nitty gritty. The Milwaukee Bucks move on from Damian Lillard in a shocking turn of events. Teams in the western conference continue to build up more and more depth and talent. Teams like the Houston Rockets and LA Clippers continue to build immense foundations as teams try to continue to navigate the new CBA and the new financial horizon in the association.
HOUR#2- J.R. joins us (VZP Digital) to talk about NHL free agency, which has been arguably just as entertaining as the NBA. The big move is Mitch Marner heading to Vegas in what could be looked at as a potential tampering scandal. The Avalanche move on from Johnothan Drouin, and both teams from the stanley cup finals, the defending champion Florida Panthers and the Edmonton Oilers both do a great job retaining their core players for years to come.
- We talk some football, as a big trade just happened in the NFL. All Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey gets moved to the Pittsburgh Steelers, in a fascinating move for one of the NFL's premiere franchises. Are the Steelers going all in? How much gas does Rodgers hve left in the tank? Is this going to be a farewell tour type of season? I feel like Pittsburgh may be a force to reckon with, but Forquer feels otherwise. Its July. This is the LowDown.
