SMASH THAT NBA PANIC BUTTON

We're just one game into the NBA season, but some teams already face an elevated threat level (hello, Lakers!)

Gabe and Alex are back and doing an NBA podcast now instead of sports history. The NBA is also back and, after one game, we’re ready to smash that panic button for at least one team: the Los Angeles Lakers! We explain why we think the Lakers will underperform, how Russell Westbrook affects their ceiling, and how washed the rest of Lakers are. They also discuss the Brooklyn Nets, Chris Duarte, Jaylen Brown and the San Antonio Spurs.


Show Outline

  1. Who is hitting the panic button

    • Los Angeles Lakers

    • Portland Blazers

    • Brooklyn Nets

  2. Player you're unreasonably high on after one game

    • Jaylen Brown--MVP

    • Chris Duarte--Rookie of the Year

  3. Alex's game: Do you know who is playing for the San Antonio Spurs or Oklahoma City Thunder?
