Hear about the bet Lou and Matt had for 15k. Lou talks about the transition that needed to be made when the Clippers brought in Paul George and Kawhi Leonard. Who are Lou's top 3 players of all time? One of them might surprise you!

Matt has Stack take us through his thoughts and emotions during Malice At The Palace 15 years ago. Would Stack jump in the stands if he knew that he would be suspended 30 games?

Should we be worried about Zion? Is Zion FAT?!? Are kids playing too much basketball at a young age? We will tell you why Kobe Bryant is awesome. We are talking rookies and we look back to when we were rookies and who were our mentors and we ask the question, do today's rookies have mentors? RJ Barrett is for real, and so is Ja Morant but listen to hear who we think is the best rookie shooter. Where did Big Baller Brand go wrong?

All The Smoke's first guest is the one and only J.R. Smith. Matt and Stephen take us through J.R.'s basketball life.
