PART 1: Holy hell, Luka Mar 13, 2026

Show notes

JJ Redick called attention to the way Luka Doncic has been talked about for most of this season and, honestly, he makes a good point. Anthony builds on that point and celebrates everything Doncic did in that win. He also discusses LeBron's performance as he finds a way to fit into this new Lakers hierarchy.

PART 2: Ayton! Q&A - So... this Bufkin thing is a bit awkward... Mar 13, 2026

FULL: Stop policing feelings; Deandre Ayton's weird presser; MAILBAG Mar 12, 2026

Show notes

Anthony has seen all the takes about Bam Adebayo's big night and is sick of NBA Twitter telling Lakers fans how they should feel about everything, especially as that pertains to Kobe Bryant. He follows that up by discussing Deandre Ayton's interesting presser after last night's game, then he dives into the mailbag and live Q&A.

PART 1: NBA fans should consider empathy as an option Mar 12, 2026

Show notes

Anthony shares his final thoughts on Bam Adebayo passing Kobe Bryant the other night and the response to it. Essentially, NBA Twitter needs to stop telling Lakers fans how to feel about stuff. It's an ugly habit.

PART 2: MAILBAG - Lakers can't keep losing talent for nothing Mar 12, 2026

Show notes

A listener asked about all the players who have walked the hallways of Lakers facilities and eventually walked for nothing. The list is painfully long. Anthony explains what's gone into that unfortunate trend, then explains why he'd rather the Lakers trade the pick they can use this summer as the Lakers organization is currently constructed.

FULL: Harrison stops by to celebrate another huge win Mar 11, 2026

Show notes

After the Lakers beat the Knicks, Anthony offered what he thought the lesson from that win was, in terms of how the Lakers need to play moving forward. Now, another huge win later playing a similar style, that lesson from the other day is getting pretty loud. He and Harrison enjoy the win, discuss this identity moving forward and then try not to sound too salty about Bam Adebayo's night. They wrap with questions from the live audience.

PART 1: Two great wins in a row! Mar 11, 2026

Show notes

Anthony and Harrison recap that great win over the Wolves and start the conversation on how the Lakers can build on this moving forward (preferably with LeBron James).

PART 2: Can the Lakers get LeBron to commit to this style of basketball? Mar 11, 2026

Show notes

The Lakers have found the identity they need to roll with moving forward. They've done so while LeBron James hasn't been playing. Whenever he comes back, they'll need him to adopt that approach or else they have no chance. Can fans realistically hope to see that happen?

PART 3: How can the Lakers get this from Austin in these kinds of games? Mar 11, 2026

Show notes

The midrange game opens everything up for Austin. It's becoming that simple. Anthony and Harrison discuss that, then quickly talk about why Bam's night was more annoying than anything and wrap with questions from the live audience.
