Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre

On today’s episode, Jason discusses why he's still refusing to jump off the New York Knicks bandwagon even after their blowout loss on Thursday night to the top-seeded Detroit Pistons. Later, former NBA big man and CBS HQ college basketball analyst John Henson swings by to discuss whether Darryn Peterson's inability to play (or even finish) games for Kansas will hurt his NBA draft stock, what makes guys like AJ Dybantsa and Cameron Boozer such special talents, which teams seem poised to make deep NCAA Tournament runs, the likelihood that his former Bucks teammate - Giannis Antetokounmpo - finishes his career with Milwaukee, and much more!

On today’s episode, Jason discusses the fallout from Kevin Durant's alleged burner accounts, whether the Houston Rockets locker room is strong enough to handle KD allegedly bashing Jabari Smith Jr and Alperen Sengun behind their backs, why teams like the Los Angeles Lakers and the Minnesota Timberwolves should actually want to face KD's Rockets in the playoffs this year, and why you should throw some pizza money on Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham to win the NBA MVP award.

On today’s episode, Jason is joined by longtime Los Angeles Lakers reporter Jovan Buha.

On today’s episode, Jason discusses why he believes the Miami Dolphins are doing the right thing by tanking the upcoming 2026 season and getting an early start on the 'March for Arch' Manning for the 2027 NFL Draft, whether it's fair or foul to say that Fernando Mendoza wouldn't go first overall in the 2026 NFL Draft if he had come out in a more star-studded draft class like the one we saw in 2024 with Caleb Williams, Drake Maye and Jayden Daniels, the real reason why Victor Wembanyama felt compelled to play hard in the NBA All-Star Game, and why Luka Doncic and LeBron James appear at-odds as it pertains to the Los Angeles Lakers season-long outlook.

On today’s episode, Jason is joined by FS1 NBA analyst Ric Bucher for a lengthy basketball conversation heading into NBA All-Star Weekend. During the interview, J-Mac and Bucher share their thoughts on whether the Los Angeles Lakers are legitimate championship contenders, if we can expect LeBron James to return for a 24th NBA season (and presumably, a retirement tour), how the addition of James Harden in Cleveland has shaken up the Eastern Conference playoff picture, whether Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs have it in them to make run at the NBA Finals, and much more!
