Game Over with Max Kellerman and Rich Paul

Wednesday’s Game Over starts with a surprise drop-in from Bill Simmons, and of course they have to talk movies after Bill’s seen 'The Odyssey' twice already. Pat Riley made some comments about players needing to avoid reacting to their name swirling around in trade rumors (6:05). Did those rumors contribute to Jaylen Brown’s trade out of Boston? Deuce McBride spoke about role players in the NBA; do his comments align with Rich’s stance on starring in your role (19:55)? Bill wonders if Rich is going to be running a team before the year 2033 (25:34), and does his best to convince Rich to get LeBron to Golden State. Then, which fantasy basketball trio would win the most championships (50:24)?

Rich took in the World Cup final yesterday, and both he and Max are back from New York to start another week of Game Over. Where is LeBron going? That’s the question on everyone's mind in the NBA and sports media, but Rich wonders why he’s being pressured to rush his decision (4:46). Have the Lakers made themselves a better team going into next season (21:04)? Then, is the Tim Donaghy clip being blown out of proportion (36:10)? Plus, we get to your emails and voicemails!
