When's he on?


"Stephen A. Smith is returning to ESPN as a local radio host and ESPN.com columnist. Smith will host a pair of two-hour, weekday local radio shows – one airing on 1050 ESPN (WEPN-AM) in New York from 7-9 p.m. ET and another on 710 ESPN (KSPN-AM) in Los Angeles from 6-8 p.m. PT. Both shows will focus on local sports topics, with a concentration on the NBA on game nights (1050 ESPN is the flagship station for the Knicks and 710 ESPN for the Lakers). Smith will begin to contribute to both stations this week. Smith will also cover NBA All-Star events and The Finals on ESPN Radio. Additionally, Smith will be a featured ESPN.com columnist, writing regularly for ESPNLA.com and ESPNNY.com. "


Sweet can't wait. This is perfect, just got a new security job and if I can put the radio on this would be so key.

Can't trade Kobe but the reality is he is getting old. So, would you rather build your post Kobe centric Lakers around Melo or Bynum?

The Lakers GM said they are looking to improve the roster. Anthony is the top player available so they have to be at least considering making an offer. It's also hard to imagine Melo no wanting to extend in LA.


I wouldn't trade Bynum because Bynum and the current group have a chance to continue to win championships for the next 2-3 years at the minimum. So no, unless I'm getting Dwight then I don't trade a 23 YEAR OLD Bynum. Melo is a super star but it's not all about Melo.

Stephen A. must not have any sources within the Melo camp. Last time I hit him up on the melo stuff he told me Melo might not have any choice but to sign an extension with new Jersey :-?

Why did Stephen A / ESPN part ways in the first place? (That Quite Frankly show bombed!) I always thought the relationship was damaged, baby steps though

look forward to hearing him on the radio.

But "at the end of the day, this is a business," he said. "The Denver Nuggets have to be cautious; it's a business. I have to be cautious; it's a business. And we just go from there. So whether we make a business decision together and that's for me to stay in Denver or they say the business decision is to trade you somewhere else, I've got to deal with that."

I think this may be the strongest statement he's made in regards to "trade me now or lose me for nothing". Denver should "be cautious".

Um, yeah...that was lurking about in my subconscious but I kept trying to ignore it. Damn you for bringing it to the forefront. :D

EZ to say do the right thing Melo and help us keep assets and build a winner but with that big Amar'e contract it's not happening. Sigh. Ok well, second place foreva here we come. :-?

Let's make it clear the only discount Melo is taking is whatever the new CBA brings. I doubt he takes lower than whatever the new MAX will be. And I doubt it's offered. But if it happens I'll be impressed. I imagine it would be something Melo brings up and not DW.

Cosign. That the possibility is being discussed here is absurd.
