About this episode
In this episode of “I Love Basketball”, Sabreena and Sasha go through the latest Lakers news, including the surprisingly deliberate search for a new head coach and the theoretical ‘shadow executive’ who may be swooping in to save the franchise. Then, inspired by the first round of the NBA playoffs, they engage in a thought experiment by imagining an alternate timeline in which the Lakers qualified for the postseason this year. They discuss what that would mean for the team’s young players, how they would fare, and what sorts of flaws would be exposed in the crucible of a seven-game series. Finally, they talk about how making the playoffs this year would have impacted the way we view LeBron James and his legacy. Learn more about your ad choices.
