Then, BK and Jimmy ask Scott about what’s going on with the Indiana Pacers and the NBA Draft specifically Josh Giddey and what is different about this year’s draft scouting process. Right now, the Pacers own the 13th pick, but Scott talks about the possibilities of trading up or moving back on draft night as well as which prospects he likes. And of course, they talk about the debacle that is Myles Turner and Domantas Sabonis both being on the blue and gold roster.

Carson Wentz is the biggest story heading into the season but KB talks about how good the running back room is and how important that position is and the open competition for the starting kicker position. KB touches on the vaccination rates for the Colts roster and how it might impact the 2021 season and how patient the Colts fan base will be with Wentz. (45:06-54:28) - ESPN 1000 and NBC Sports Chicago’s David Kaplan joins the show to talk about the end of this era for the Chicago Cubs, who could be the first big name to go and what is the end game for the Cubs.
