The Right Time with Bomani Jones

On today’s episode, Shannon Penn of ESPN Radio joins Bomani Jones to discuss the New York Giants Draft and the New York Knicks playoff series. The show starts off with Bo saying why he has trouble with certain people who agree with his take on Shedeur Sanders (4:21) and why he is starting to hate both of the Giants 1st round picks (9:41). Bo and Shannon explain why it's absurd for Abdul Carter to request Lawrence Taylor's #56 (12:07) and that they feel bad for Dak Prescott having to face the NFC East pass rush (20:44). Sticking with the Giants, they criticize the front office for never investing in a young, black quarterback (26:20) and say they would never draft Shedeur Sanders because they were afraid Deion would want to replace Brian Daboll as head coach (29:49). Bo and Shannon transition to the New York Knicks where they have lost yet another series clinching game at home (33:48) and if they lose this series to Detroit, Tom Thibodeau will be on the hot seat (38:40). Bo and Shannon both agree Giannis Antetokounmpo has played his last game as a member of the Milwaukee Bucks but there's no great situation he can move to next season (43:35). They round out the show discussing Outkast making the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and why they're still underrated (52:10). . . .

On today's episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones reacts to the 2025 NFL Draft and the first round of the NBA playoffs. Bo starts off the show with a deep dive on Shedeur Sanders sliding to the 5th round and why the Cleveland Browns drafted him despite already taking Dillon Gabriel (3:14). Bo proceeds to say why mock drafts are for stupid people (9:35) and that we see plenty of college players fall every year in the NFL Draft (13:20). Bo pushes back at the idea that Shedeur's situation is similar to Colin Kaepernick's (14:29) and that ultimately Deion Sanders is at fault for overplaying their hand (27:32). Next, Bomani moves onto the NBA playoffs where he says why we knew this wasn't the Los Angeles Lakers year to win it all (36:11) and that he's ready for Anthony Edwards to continue to "slay the dragon." (39:07) And finally, we have another round of If You Haven't Heard stories involving the 'worst job in America,' why robots can't make Nike's and Uber's shady practices (41:36). Then Bomani listens to some voicemails about the craziest thing you've heard playing pickup basketball (48:54).
