The analysis train keeps chugging along! After Tuesday's great episode with Andy Liu and Sam Esfandiari of the Light Years podcast, it's time for another great guest. Wes Goldberg, who covers the Golden State Warriors for The Mercury News and hosts Locked On Warriors and Locked on NBA (Tuesdays) joins the show to break down Wednesday's much-anticipated play-in game between the Lakers and Warriors at Staples Center. - - HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky - - On the agenda... - - SEGMENT 1: How did the Warriors get here? Hint, it took some significant injuries to change the team's trajectory for the better. Wes explains why, and how it got Golden State playing in a way much more suited to Steph Curry's strengths. - - SEGMENT 2: What does Steph's MVP candidacy say about how we're looking at the award? Does it represent a shift, even if small? Where will he finish in the voting? And was LeBron projecting a little when he picked his reasons for calling Curry the MVP? - - SEGMENT 3: Analysis time. These are two good defenses - which is better suited to stop the other squad's offense? How will the Lakers attack Golden State? Can they go big and bludgeon the Warriors to death? What happens if the Lakers go small? - - Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! - - Built Bar - Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
