They then break down Bucks/Pistons, highlighted by Giannis’ calf injury, Doc Rivers’ clever 2–3 zone, and Jericho Sims’ decisive and-one.

San Antonio/Orlando follows, with Dylan Harper’s electric playmaking, De’Aaron Fox’s tough shotmaking, and Luke Kornet’s game-saving block on Franz Wagner.

Yaron Weitzman, Author of “A Hollywood Ending” Nov 06, 2025

Show notes

Author Yaron Weitzman joins to unpack his new book, A Hollywood Ending: The Dreams and Drama of the LeBron Lakers—and all the palace intrigue that shaped this era. We dig into why the LeBron–Lakers “marriage” delivered a title yet still feels unresolved, from Buss family succession politics to who actually pulls the levers in L.A. You’ll hear how decisions really got made—Ty Lue negotiations, Linda/Rob’s influence, the AD trade mechanics, and the inside story of the Westbrook pivot. We look at the common “Klutch runs the Lakers” narrative with fresh reporting on where that’s true, where it isn’t, and how those tensions played out. You can ⁠buy Yaron’s book here⁠.
