Welcome to the best of the week for What's Right with Nick Wright. The best takes and moments from this week on the show. Enjoy. For one of the first times in this show's history, we are going to start with Shador Sanders. But we're not actually. starting with Chador. And so that sounds silly. But here's the point I'm making.

So Chador came in. He obviously was terrible. He was 4 of 16. It's the worst completion percentage by a guy who threw at least 10 passes in four years in the NFL. It was a game that the Browns could have and one would correctly argue would have and should have won with just typical bad quarterback play. Instead, Gabriel was terrible, and then Shador came in and was somehow worse,

and they lose. And the Ravens escape with a win they did not really deserve, despite Miles Garrett, who might get 25 sacks this year, just playing at an all-time level. But the reason I'm starting with Shador is because this morning Twitter was down, for a bit and I think Twitter has I want to make sure I use the right word

warped people's brains and ability to discuss Shador Sanders in a way it's such an what you have and what Twitter has rewarded from content creators is the most idiotic Shador Sanders takes being so amplified and being so force-fed to anyone who has any type of sports algorithm that you have folks who know better or at least should know better polluting the public discourse with just nonsensical misinformation. and so you've got and it's on and this is one of the rare things where it is really a both sides problem you have folks who gain traction and get engagement by finding anything imaginable to criticize shador for up to and including where he's sitting on the bench during and after a game

because that gets engagement. And then you have on the other end of it, folks acting as if it takes a grand conspiracy for a fifth round pick third string quarterback to not have reps with the starting offense. When it is totally reasonable that during training camp, a guy who was not actually ever,

maybe you think he should have been, competing for the starting job he wasn't the browns again you can make the argument that the browns simply don't know what they're doing i don't know what the biggest shadore fans out there how they they can make that argument i don't know how they square the fact that the entire league said he's not worth a first second third or fourth round pick that that you're And I understand there was some league-wide conspiracy talk. It's all so stupid. But set all that aside, in training camp, the Browns looked at Joe Flacco as their starter and Dylan Gabriel of the two young guys as the higher priority because he was the higher draft pick.

That's how that works. And then once Dylan Gabriel became the starter, they looked at their third round. rookie as a guy who needed as much practice reps as possible, so they were not splitting practice reps, which is totally and completely reasonable. Life is a fifth round pick in this league is hard. It is supposed to be hard, and it's not always fair. You get thrown into action, and you have to look better than Shador did, and it feels like deep, deep, down people who know better know that but deep down folks also know oh my god this really gets people going and it's just so dumb and so now what we will get is this week shador is going to

get a real look he will be the starter against the raiders he will get the full week of practice he will get a game plan to his strength you know catered to him and we'll see what he looks like and typically in sports if you're good enough none of the other stuff really matters and you don't have a lot of as a fifth round quarterback you're not going to have a ton of better opportunities than this one. Knowing you are the starter all week long, going against a bad team that is on a shorter week themselves, and an opportunity to remake, at least temporarily, that Brown's quarterback discussion, because Gabriel has been really bad.

And if Shador goes out there in balls, maybe he gets to. another week but the my colleagues in the media that no it's not at all outrageous for should or to have no reps with the ones and implying or outright saying differently because either they want to be in good with prime or it's what they think their particular fans or followers will appreciate or just because they think it'll get the most motion on the internet. It's so bad. And it really is a good example of, this is a real example of social media at times making the discourse dumber. And so that's why I want to spend a few minutes on it off the top. We don't have to

spend more time on it. We will see what he looks like against the Raiders. I think Dylan Gabriel has been the worst starting quarterback in the league this year. And the only reason that you wouldn't bench Gabriel for Shador is if when he has a full week of reps in practice and is ready to go against the Raiders, he looks at all like he looked in that Ravens game. Because in that Ravens game, he looked like a guy who was wholly unequipped for the job. And I didn't, listen, I didn't love him coming out of school,

but I certainly liked him more coming out of school than Dylan Gabriel. And in that game, he looked like a guy that was a ways away from being a ways away.

I think it was on a call about what we should call it. We were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing,

a bit for the podcast, where people could call in and say, Hey Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad Hey Jonas and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.

I mean, she went down in three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lina Rabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now, and I actually can win on any surface. Because if she's serving, well, good luck.

So no athlete in my lifetime has generated more idiotic and immediately self-refuting opinions than LeBron. And it's because I think it's. it's because he's been for basically as long as daily sports television has existed. LeBron has been one of, if not the main character. And because he has played, you know, throughout the entirety of this medium, and because he has been at the eye of the NBA storm, which while the NBA has never in his career been the country's most popular sport, but it has been at various times in his career the country's

most talked about sport when it comes to sports debate and sports TV and sports talk radio. LeBron is the LeBron Commentariat has spawned just some truly ridiculous and upon reflection, moments and these are from for me friends and foes alike. I mean we are 12 12 is that right? No, it's not right. 13 years ago my dear pal Dan Lebitard announced LeBron was on the downside and Miami had gotten the best of him. That was 13 years ago. And I'm going to talk about guys that I love and adore. So it doesn't seem like I'm trying to take cheap shots here. Famously, the owner and founder of this company, my mentor, Colin,

eight years ago, said, LeBron, hang it up whenever you want. The NBA's got it from here. it was actually nine years ago and that's an all-time clip A, because LeBron would go on to win multiple championships after that but B, because he was saying that

Ben Simmons is going to take over. Listen, Colin, I was as high on Ben Simmons as just about anybody. I have to hold that L as well. And there, of course, is all the skip stuff with the clutch and then the latest Stephen A stuff with the real personal I don't like that guy.

So much of it just outright silliness. And then we got an unexpected dose of it in the week or so leading up to LeBron making his debut, which was, hey, will LeBron be able to fit in with the Lakers? Even though we saw Luca and LeBron and Austin Reeves play together last year. Hey, will LeBron actually? make the Lakers worse. Will he screw up what they have going on? These were real conversations,

real discussions, about the most malleable, most flexible as far as how he can help your team player and NBA history, about arguably the only guy in the history of the league that can legitimately and has literally made an all-MBA team at all five positions on the court, check his basketball reference for that, was an all-N-B-A center one year for the Lakers and an all-M-B-A point guard the year after that for the Lakers, late-stage LeBron,

was an All-NBA shooting guard as a young player early and then obviously All-MBA small forward and power forward throughout his career that that guy that can play all five and certainly the younger version of him and to a degree the older version of him can guard all five that that guy was going to screw up a team and then LeBron comes in keeps his double-digit point streak alive

which is going to be a very fun and funny thing to watch this year because it's obviously an untouchable record and we'll get more on the LeBron untouchable record stuff in a moment but he wants to keep it going but he is, I believe, going to play a very different style this year. that game Tuesday night, that's the fewest shots he's ever taken in a game he didn't leave with injury. And speaking of the double digit point streak,

one of those games that he left with injury, because there's only been two games in his career, he took fewer than seven shots, which is what he took Tuesday night. One, he didn't play the second half because he took an elbow from Dekimbe Matumbo, and one, he left. left early when Solomon Hill fell into his ankle and derailed the Lakers title defense in the 2021 season.

But that game involves one of my favorite LeBron moments of all time, which is Solomon Hill falls into his ankle. LeBron recognizes he has suffered the first truly significant. injury of his entire career up to that point and is going to be out months and is sitting at seven points and the streak is dead and despite suffering an injury that is going to knock him out for the next two months he pretends he's not hurt badly stays in the game gets the ball takes a corner three hits it keeps the doubled figure point streak alive and then is out for the majority of the rest of the season but that's sidebar lebron being dropped in as a team's ultimate Swiss army

knife and lebron taking pride in that ability and lebron then saying after the game with a smile yeah i heard what was being said, I've been, you know, you could put me on any team and I would make it work. It's just obviously true. And people, you know, people say that about Kevin Durant all the time.

Like, oh, you just drop him in anywhere. And yes, that's true about other players. Great players, you drop them in and they would make any team better. The distinction is can you drop a player in and can they instantly do at a high level the exact thing that team needs them to do?

This Lakers team right now might need LeBron to be more facilitator, cutter, screener than score. Unlike some of the other great players in this league, he has the skill set. at 40 in year 23 to be excellent at all at at anything now is he the best player in the league anymore of course not see a top five player in the league anymore no but is he still have a legitimate shot at being right around top 10 and is he assuredly when he's healthy still a top 15 guy the league yes and that guy with that malleability helps any team in the history of basketball now is it all right now a moot point for the whole NBA because of who and what okay C is maybe

everybody might be playing for second this year but we'll see things happen and there's an element of i don't want to say lack of appreciation but numbness to what we are seeing at this moment. And this is something that, you know, I've said before, but I don't know that people like fully take it in. And especially because, you know, Steph is playing at such a high level at an advanced age. Durant is playing at such a high level.

at an advanced age but see whether you want to focus on the age 40 part or the year 23 part the it being without precedent is such a wild understatement like Kobe Bryant the late great Kobe Bryant how old do you think Kobe was when he played in his final playoff game with the Lakers. I'm going to give it a pause so you can actually think about it. How old was Kobe in his final career playoff game? Are you shocked when I tell you the answer to that is 32? Kobe Bryant did not play in a playoff game with the Lakers after the age of 32.

like a little context to that. LeBron joined the Lakers when he was 34. So obviously Jordan was done with the Bulls at 35, 36. Obviously, we've never seen a player play in a year 23. and the only one to get to a year 22 was Vince. I said this a couple years ago and people laughed. I think we are now seeing it in real time. He'll simply never be bad.

And he could easily play at, again, not an MVP level, but a high level throughout his 40s. Barring, again, barring, you're always at this age, a catastrophic injury away, but he's ducked that up to this point in his career. And people can have the argument about the greatest player of all time. That is going to age so well on my end and so poorly for so many other folks, because it is, when it does come to, and this isn't the whole, discussion, but it is at least a piece of it.

The record books, with the way things are going right now, as far as injuries, load management, guys not being able to make it through a full season. LeBron's longevity records are going to, when people look back on them in 40 years, it's going to be like if you look at complete games in baseball right now and you're like wait a guy had 40 in one year like all of these games minutes points the playoff records are going to be chamberlain-esque untouchable and farcical in the numbers to future generations and I'm I'm very, very interested to see the full role. Braun takes on with the Lakers.

Because in game one of year 23, he was like, okay, I'll be late stage Magic Johnson. And that's pretty damn good.

There's one other brawn adjacent thing I wanted to talk. talk about and this is one of those things that I imagine will do well on uh social media or youtube or my and might cause me a little grief but I just I can't leave it unaddressed and I don't I'm not I'm not trying to start anything but this is so it was maddening when I heard it. So, the greatest sports podcaster of all time, the guy who in some ways invented the

medium, and a guy I like a lot, Bill Simmons brought the mailbag back, which is awesome. It's vintage Simmons. It's part of the reason that he's who he is, and it's awesome. And because I'm a fan, I was listening. And he gets asked about the biggest sliding doors moments in NBA history. And he goes to the Draymond groin shot of LeBron in game four of the 2016 finals, which is a legitimate sliding door. moment. There's no doubt about it. And he talks about how if the Warriors win that title, Durant can't go, you know, to Golden State. So then who wins the next two? Does LeBron ever win in Cleveland? Does LeBron ever go to the Lakers? That is, you know, what does it mean for

Steph? Back-to-back championships. He and LeBron then at that moment would have been two-two. he would have had back-to-back league MVP's including a unanimous. There are, it's, Clay, he's, Simmons talks about all of it and he's correct about that being a sliding doors moment. But there's two pieces of that commentary that are just, one is enraging and it's not about Bill. And the other one is, I, he just must talk. to very different NBA people than me. Because what Bill said was the conspiracy theory that people believe more than any other conspiracy is

that the NBA suspended Draymond because they wanted Cleveland to win the title. And I've literally never heard that. Now, I certainly have heard the conspiracy that they suspended Dremond because they hoped the series would go longer than five. But the idea that in real time, anyone outside of the Cavs locker room, me and Zach Lowe, we're all on the record during this, everyone's doing media, Nobody else when that suspension came down said, oh, well, now I think the calves are going to win. That Warriors team was considered the greatest team of all time and had dominated the calves through the first four games of that series. So the first, the first point is the idea that it is widely thought in NBA circles. that the Draymond suspension was going to lead to the Cavs winning the championship,

we were all there in real time. That was not a thing. And then to the opinion piece of it, nothing is more maddening for me as a the then the fact that when that happened and then the Cavs win game 5 by 15 and LeBron scores 41 points

the entire media asserts that would have never happened if Draymond was there the Cavs winning by double digits and LeBron scoring 40 plus never happens if Dremont's there. And then in game six, when Dremont is there, LeBron scores 41 and the Cavs win by 15 points.

Game five of those finals, no Dremont. Bron. I'll give you his exact stat line, just so we all are on the same page. 41, 16, and 7 on 55% from the field, 63% from 3, and the Cavs win by 15. So again, 41, 16, 7, 55, 63 splits, 15 point win. game six of the finals

41 811 on 65 75 splits and the calves win by 14 like what are we talking about what are we talking about oh hold on I got to do that because I'm sure

I have to fix that I have to fix that I apologize I gave you the wrong field goal percentages let me let me do that again because I want this to be accurate I gave you, so game five of the finals, no Dremond, 41, 16, and 7 on 53, 50 splits in a 15 point win, game six of the finals with Dremond, 41, 8, 11 on 59, 50 splits in a 14 point win. it's just

revisionist history and it's the the only other reason that's relevant to me right now is that game happened

10 seasons ago and this guy's still playing it's just a a career that will never be even remotely approached. And if you're listening to this right now and a sports fan of this era, the fact that we got to experience Tom Brady going more than 20 years of elite in the mix every single year,

10 Super Bowl appearances across multiple teams, while experiencing LeBron doing the exact same thing in the NBA, it's just unreal. Just unreal. Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers, and guess what? We have some big news. What's the news? Huge news.

We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to a... We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts. We're starting a trend. But this one's extra special.

So how do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it.

I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, people could call in and say, hey, Jonas.

The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis, and I know firsthand because I competed there myself. I'm Renee Stubbs, and on the Renee Stubbs Tennis podcast, I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris. Every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on clay. Jen she won. I mean, she went down in three to Rovachina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay.

Listen, Lina Rubakina is arguably the best player in the world right now and I actually can win on any surface. Because if she's serving, well, good luck. Consider this your court side seat to the French Open. Listen to the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the I-Hard Radio app,

Five games and a reminder, all of these lines are from our friends at Hard Rock Bet. I am rolling with Chicago laying two and a half at home against Pittsburgh. I just, you are either going to get Mason Rudolph or you're going to get Aaron Rogers with a broken wrist. I don't, I don't understand how this game is not three and a half. It feels like a bear's ugly three point win. Also for Ben Johnson, this kind of. of you get a lot of internal credit with the fans in the organization for beating Aaron because in everybody's mind he's still a Packer. I think Chicago is right now a

the exact same caliber of team as Pittsburgh, but one team's quarterback has a broken wrist and the other team's quarterback doesn't and Chicago's at home all take Chicago minus the two and a half. The Jets getting 13 and a half at Baltimore. This is an ugly one, I will admit. However, Lamar now is on the, you know, mispractice again this week. Last week was for a knee. This week is for an ankle. He has not. looked like Lamar since he came back from his injury and he is refusing to run the ball, which is super noteworthy because that has a knock-on effect on how on his passing and on the team's overall efficiency. Also, I think the Jets are starting their best option at

quarterback and Tyrod Taylor. For all those reasons and the fact that I get nearly two full touchdowns. I will take the 13 and a half points while I will lay the 13 and a half points with Seattle. Seattle is at Tennessee. What that defense is going to do to Cam Ward is going to be borderline criminal. I do not see how Tennessee can get to 10, maybe 10, but not 13. And so can Seattle get to 24? Huge spot for Seattle after the very disappointing loss to the Rams. Bounce back, I still think they're an excellent team.

I understand I am laying 13 and a half points on the road, but Seattle prior to that Rams game had won 10 in a row on the road. Tennessee's the worst team in the NFL. I will take Seattle laying the 13 and a half. Arizona, getting three at home against Jacksonville. Arizona has not been good. Jacksonville has been okay. But they are coming off Jacksonville, their best win,

their most dominating performance of the year. I should say. Their best wound was skin city. This is their most dominating. And they are a very up and down team. We've seen it throughout the year that the Jags are not really able to build on successes. They beat the Chiefs, then immediately lose back to back to the Seahawks and Rams. They beat the Raiders in, you know, not miracle, but the Raiders have a two-point conversion in overtime.

to beat them. They then respond by blowing a horrifying, by blowing a 19.4th quarter lead to the Texans. They blow out the chargers. They're now on the road going cross country to the Cardinals. And I'm getting three whole points. I will take Arizona plus three.

And then in a game that might shock the audience that I am including, Cleveland in Shador's first start, getting three and a half at the Raiders. This is very simple. That Raiders offensive line against that Brown's defensive line is the single biggest mismatch of the week.

I do not care who is playing quarterback for Cleveland. Miles Garrett could set the single game and single season sack record in this game. the all-time sack record for a game is seven. Derek Thomas, late great Kansas City Chief. The all-time sack record for a season is 22 and a half. So if Miles Garrett got eight, he would set the season and game record, he could do that against this Raiders offensive line.

I will take Cleveland plus the three and a half. So my five picks this weekend are the Bears laying two and a half at home against Pittsburgh. the Jets getting 13 and a half at Baltimore. Seattle laying 13 and a half at Tennessee. Arizona getting three against Jacksonville and Cleveland getting three and a half at the Las Vegas Raiders. Hey guys, it's us. The Jonas Brothers.
