Tyler “DragonflyJonez” on Kyrie Irving’s Injury, the Dallas Mavericks, and Legit West Contenders
On today’s episode, Tyler “DragonflyJonez” of the Jenkins & Jonez Podcast joins Bomani Jones to discuss the latest around the NBA. The show begins with the news of Kyrie Irving tearing his ACL and why the current vibe with the Mavericks players must be extremely bad. Bo and Tyler debate who are the real contenders in the Western Conference and if fans want a LeBron vs Steph playoff series? Later in the show they play a game of guessing what certain NBA players earned in their careers and they breakdown the future for the Philadelphia 76ers after the latest Joel Embiid injury. #joelembiid #kyrieirving #lebronjames #lukadoncic #stephencurry #jimmybutler #dallasmavs

With what we saw John Fisher do with the Oakland A's, how can you not look at what the Adelsons are doing and not softening the ground to move somewhere?
If the trade was about Luka hypothetical medical issues for the future, you don’t trade for AD who gets hurt all the time.
I think we know who Kyrie’s blaming this injury on.
SHOUT OUT J AND J FR DAWG
I love Kanye West/Kobe commercial easter egg
This guy has no idea what he’s saying lol
I’m literally the only black male in my whole office building, the building is 9 floors btw
Love how y’all assume Los Angeles will be able to host the Olympics in 2028… 🍊🍑? #Paris2028
Great stuff gentlemen.
Bomani just admit you were wrong on Luka Brother it's fine let it go
Trading Luka will never be justified no matter how you try and spin it
Bomani and race baiting
Insinuating Nico getting hate cause he black
Respectfully that's a tired argument
Lmaooo I said that if Aaliyah stayed alive, she would’ve had a similar career to Ashanti on my twitter n I had so many death threats I deactivated my account for a few weeks 😂😂😂
Unpopular OPINION: Hoosiers (1986) is not a basketball movie, just like October Sky (1999) is not a STEM movie. Both are Pedagogy [the art of Education and teaching] movies. They just do such a profound job of highlighting the educational arc.
Lakers rarely blow any team out so point differential is gonna hate them. I can’t tell you why but it’s been that way for years now.
Bo wtf are you talking about???? Does he hate Luka or something?
I feel bad for Nico. He’s a scapegoat. He probably was asked “why shouldn’t we pay Luka this money” and he just came up with reasons to confirm the ownership’s biases against giving Luka the money.
Aye hold on bruh because I would’ve expected Tyler to cut him off with some of these opinions. I know he not just listening to this bs 😭😭😭
Peeps guest Nope! See yall Friday!
Chet vs Wemby is like Highlander "there can be only one." Bol Bol in the background "what about me?"
Nobody watches this garbage😂😂😂
LOL on 'realized we are the bad guys' – Hoosiers
I’m from Seattle so I have no team but I’ve enjoyed watching the lakers with LeBron since he’s been there, now with Luka I’m watching every game fam!!!
Ant vs Ja is the rivalry the league needs.
TimOfay – i see what you did there 💀💀💀
Bomani entering full-blown raccoon territory with his Kyrie takes when he only talked about Justin Tucker because it was a slow news day and used the excuse that he's a kicker and he has no moral obligation to talk about him yet he never missed an opportunity to call DeShaun Watson the nasty man and remind everyone about his allegations
Bomani with some absolutely horrific Luka analysis. Look Bo I know you got back a brother but what Nico did was stupid. Luka is one of the 3 best players in the league you have him in a playoff series he’s shown the ability to take over games and beat better teams.
This Jimmy Butler glazing y'all talking about that man like he's LeBron James
The best example of this trade is another sport baseball when the Red Sox traded Babe Ruth. Hate to go back that far. But thought of this forever and it's the only equivalent thing in circumstances. They will be course till Luka forgive them. They so mad out here in Dallas. I'm new here for 3 months now
Please stop pocket watching. When you argue against player salaries increasing, you're de facto arguing for team owner's profits increasing.
If you really want a good laugh, find the audio of Oscar Robinson talking about Hoosiers. 🤣😅😂
There's no way the GM made that trade without the direction of ownership.
I love the grounded reality of this channel!!!
If you are not in the financial market space right now, you are making a huge mistake. I understand that it could be due to ignorance, but if you want to make your money work for you..prevent inflation
part of the plan….OWNERSHIP want to move to Vegas anyway!!!!
Everyone on the Mavs are injured 😂 prolly didn’t mess with staff
I swear Bo keeps defending the Luka trade only because he likes to side against the angry white mob by default 😂😂 No one has provided an explanation for the trade that makes basketball sense, recent injuries aside. Even if Nico is right and Luka is a lemon after all, they could have received a haul for him. That is how Boston and OKC pivoted out of their previous incarnations to construct their current elite teams. You’re not going to convince me the Mavs couldn’t have done something similar by trading Luka Doncic at age 25, which is a much greater asset than what either Boston or OKC gave up to construct their current teams. Instead, they got an aging AD and little else. A month later, they suddenly have no hope for the future. It’s the worst move we’ve ever seen.
😂😂😂 this was a great pod!!!!
