The Lakers’ Post-IST Victory Struggles and Giving James Harden His Flowers

Austin and Pausha celebrate their one year anniversary of ‘Off Guard’ by breaking down a week full of games, starting with the Timberwolves’ dominant win in Orlando before their unfortunate loss to the Celtics (4:14), and the Thunder’s 62-point demolition of the Trail Blazers (9:38). Then, they take a closer look at the Lakers’ post-IST struggles before offering up suggestions for potential trades to help fix both them and the Golden State Warriors (13:01), before wrapping things up with their power rankings in the Western Conference and how, specifically, the surging Los Angeles Clippers stack up (54:56).
