    After All That, LeBron Wins It Again Oct 13, 2020
    Show notes

    After the longest season in NBA history -- and perhaps the most difficult -- LeBron James and the Lakers hoisted the Larry O’Brien trophy on Sunday night. The Athletic’s Bill Oram joins us to reflect on what this title means to 35-year-old LeBron and to a Lakers organization that did everything in its power to get him and his right hand man, Anthony Davis, after years of controversy and dysfunction.

    Quinton Byfield is expected to be selected with the second or third pick in Tuesday night's NHL draft. Scouts have been raving about the 18-year-old's incredible size and speed for years now, and he is expected to give a major boost to whichever team selects him. But, in addition to all the pressure of being considered a franchise player, the teen also faces the pressure of becoming the highest drafted Black player in NHL history. The Athletic's Ryan Clark joins us to talk about the challenges and opportunities facing Byfield as he enters the NHL at an historic moment, why he's well equipped to handle the obstacles, and how players around the league are already stepping up to support him.

    Show notes

    The season started off in promising fashion for the Las Vegas Raiders, who were 2-0 after a win over the Saints at their new stadium. Now, Jon Gruden’s team has lost two straight, and has been under scrutiny for some of their behavior off the field, including a fundraiser where a number of players were seen not wearing masks.

    Show notes

    Many people were shocked when Frank Vogel eventually became the Lakers' new head coach last year. They said he wasn't a splashy enough signing for the bright lights of Los Angeles, and he wasn't able to coach in the modern game. The Athletic's Anthony Slater joins us to explain how Vogel has proven many of his doubters wrong, why he is such a good fit for the star-studded team, and how he has quietly helped guide the Lakers to the NBA Finals in his first year at the helm.
