In this episode, Jas is joined by Silver Screen and Roll and Laker Film Room's Ali Behpoornia. To kick things off, the guys breakdown the Lakers 128-104 loss to the Denver Nuggets, without LeBron James in the lineup. The King missed the game with a muscle strain in the rib area, and the team looked lost without him. Ali and Jas share their thoughts on how important having a healthy LeBron is for the Lakers, and the difference in team's offensive and defensive efficiency when LeBron isn't on the court. Then, they get into Anthony Davis' postgame comments about how the squad has slipped defensively over the last month and what they need to do get back there. Following that, they give their opinions on Frank Vogel's decision to play Davis late in the blowout loss, Kyle Kuzma's return and wrap things up by previewing the Christmas Day game against the Clippers. - Learn more about your ad choices.
