This weeks episode of The Count It Podcast, we get into Draymond Green taking the intensity to a new level by choking Rudy Gobert in a heated on-court confrontation. This explosive episode explores the fallout from this unprecedented clash, delving into the echoes of Kobe Bryant's and his heir within the league. The show dissects the impact of this gritty altercation, leaving fans on the edge of their seats and redefining the boundaries of on-court battles in the modern NBA.

Week 6 provided some HUGE upsets with both the undefeated Philadelphia Eagles and the undefeated San Francisco 49ers taking L's, but with that said, we head into what is seemingly going to be a VERY interesting Week 7 as there are now 3 teams tied at 5-1 over the first 6 weeks battling it out for NFC Supremacy.  Will the Lions be able to leapfrog those two juggernaut teams as the "next up" candidate of the year? Or will we see the Eagles and Niners take back their spots atop the NFC Throne?  Week 7 will definitely be a banger!

Elsewhere around the NFL is news that a few players will be on the trade block for the foreseeable future, leaving a few questions surrounding the nature of their respective teams and the impact from a Fantasy standpoint.  Which names are being rumored heavily for trade? Check out the pod to find out!

As always, keep it locked in here for all of your IRL and Fantasy NFL News, and we'll see you next week!
