Grantland Network Podcast: The Jalen Rose Show

When we started to record the pod this week, Jalen freaked out and started running around the studio. I thought something was very wrong. It turned out I was right — Jalen didn't have his baseball bat to sling over his shoulder. Once the trusty bat was in place, we went in on Kobe's beef, Tim Tebow's announcement, Tiger's win, the Thunder's statement game against the Heat, and Kevin Love's big weekend.

As always, the best stuff we talked about wasn't what we planned on talking about. Jalen ranted for 10 minutes on how and why NCAA players should be paid, five minutes on flopping, and told the story of winning two grip in a dice game while in college. You know, the usual.

Enjoy the pod.
