JJ opens with the Suns taking Game 1 of the NBA Finals, why it seems like Chris Paul won’t be denied, and why Giannis was the only silver lining for the Bucks (0:11). Then, he discusses the Yankees’ blowout win in Seattle before chatting with former Yankee Nick Swisher about whether this road trip could be a good thing and why he’s not ready to give up hope that this team can make noise come October (13:48). JJ then discusses why he’s annoyed with how the Mets’ rainout was handled and reacts to some listener voicemails, including whether Nets fans should be upset about Kevin Durant playing in the Olympics (48:58).

We always want to hear from you! Leave JJ a message on the Listener Line at 917-382-1151.
