Prime Cuts - World Cup’s Impact On American Soccer, Where Will LeBron Land? Spain Dominated France

Colin’s top takes of the week.

First, he’s joined by Danny Parkins, host of “First Things First” on FS1

They start with Spain upsetting France in the World Cup semifinal in a game where they dominated defensively and smothered France’s vaunted attack and has the potential to turn in the greatest defensive performance ever in a World Cup (3:30).

They make their predictions for the impact of this World Cup on the future of soccer’s popularity in America (12:00) and agree that the passion and consumption of the World Cup shown by American fans has been absolutely remarkable (22:30). 

Then, he’s joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight” on the Volume.

They discuss the Jaylen Brown trade and Colin argues Brown’s presence was problematic for the Celtics when Jayson Tatum is on the floor (30:00).

They move to the World Cup and compare the artistry of both soccer and basketball, and discuss what went wrong for the USMNT against Belgium (38:00).

Finally, they discuss LeBron’s free agency and entertain the idea of LeBron joining the star-studded Sixers (53:30).
