Best of The Herd

On the Wednesday, July 16 episode of 520 in the Morning, Jeff Teague, DJ Wells, and B Hen react to Bleacher Report ranking the top 100 NBA players of all time. With Michael Jordan edging out LeBron James for the top spot, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, and Bill Russell rounding out the top 5, did they get it right? Steph Curry, Nikola Jokic, and Kevin Durant also all crack the top 20. The guys then react to the biggest storylines from NBA Summer League, as well as react to the MLB All-Star Game where Kyle Schwarber won it for the NL in a swing-off after it was tied 6-6 after 9 innings.#Volume #ClubSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Our division-by-division betting breakdowns will begin at the end of this month. But before we get to that, Action Network hosts Chad Millman and Simon Hunter do our annual table-setter episodes to prepare us for all things betting in the NFL for the 2025 season. Today we do some playoff prognostication with the help of our Action colleague Brandon Anderson. He did a similar episode on the Action Network Podcast with Anthony Dabbundo, and we loved the concept. Together the trio will predict this year’s 14 playoff teams, but Brandon has a little twist. Since NFL moved to 14 playoff teams, an average of 6 teams drop out of the playoffs from one year to the next. Over 40% have been new participants! Without telling them that, Chad and Simon submitted their predicted playoff teams. And in this episode, we go through where the trio agree (3 teams per conference) and where they disagree (4 teams per conference) to highlight the volatility of the playoff race. #VolumeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
