Anthony and Harrison both think fans might be getting a little ahead of themselves with Adou Thiero. They discuss this and several other subjects by way of questions from the live audience.
Anthony wraps up his rant about the number of people telling him and other Lakers fans they aren't true fans for not supporting the front office telling LeBron to go away. Then he promises that, after the deeply reported piece he's writing about the LeBron-Lakers partnership, he'll try to leave this alone.
LeBron made his decision. He's a Sixer. Anthony and Harrison discuss the news and some Lakers fans' reaction to it -- which launches one of the more epic rants from Anthony... maybe ever?
LeBron James may still dominate headlines, but has he lost the leverage that defined the second half of his career?In this episode of On The Ball, Ric Bucher explains why the NBA's fascination with LeBron shouldn't be mistaken for front-office demand, why Luka Dončić changed everything for the Lakers, and why Cleveland may be the only destination that truly makes basketball—and emotional—sense.Ric then turns his attention to the NBA's latest Summer League experiment: replacing multiple free throws with a single attempt worth two or three points. Is this smart innovation—or the beginning of sacrificing the integrity of the game in the pursuit of shorter broadcasts?If the league is looking for ways to modernize basketball, Ric argues it's solving the wrong problem.TIMESTAMPS00:00 Intro and show preview 01:20 LeBron still dominates headlines—but not NBA leverage 02:10 Which teams actually want LeBron—and why contenders don't 03:05 LeBron's influence isn't what it used to be 04:00 ESPN, "The Decision," and how NBA coverage changed 05:05 Why the NBA won't miss LeBron the way many assume 06:10 Why Adam Silver wants LeBron's decision before releasing the schedule 07:10 TV ratings vs. championship value 08:15 Why Luka Dončić changed LeBron's future with the Lakers 09:20 The emotional reality of becoming second—or third—option 10:30 Why media attention has become part of LeBron's baggage 11:30 Why Cleveland makes more sense than any other destination 12:45 Is LeBron delaying his decision simply to control the spotlight? 13:35 The NBA's latest experiment to shorten games 14:40 The one-free-throw proposal explained 15:45 Why changing free throws threatens basketball's integrity 16:50 Better ways to shorten NBA games without changing the sport 18:00 Instant replay, timeouts and television are the real problem 19:00 Ric's alternative: shorter games instead of changing the rules 20:20 Final thoughts: Innovation is good—but not every experiment belongs in the NBA#NBA #LeBronJames #Lakers #LukaDoncic #AdamSilver #NBASummerLeague #NBARules #Basketball #NBAPodcast #OnTheBall #RicBucherSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/bucher-and-friends.

Anthony asks Harrison whether the way LeBron is carrying out this decision could be used as proof to vindicate the Lakers' own decision to tell him to go away. He then explains why he doesn't think so, after Harrison gave his explanation on that point too. From there, the guys discuss the final few moves the Lakers are waiting to make, answer some questions, and hit the eject button before Harrison commits a cardinal sin.
LeBron has everyone waiting on a decision and it's holding up a bunch of business and now Anthony finds himself wondering if the Lakers are looking at this latest manufactured drama as proof they were right to move on from LeBron when he did. It's hard not to feel like that's their stance, so Anthony and Harrison discuss whether that's the right way to feel about things.
Anthony welcomes Khobi Price back into The Lounge to discuss, well, you probably guessed already. Still, really fun and informative conversation with a pod favorite.
Anthony and Harrison put a bow on the LeBron-Lakers convo, then wonder how the Lakers might go about landing another big. From there, they wrap the episode with a quick little Q&A with the live audience
Anthony and Khobi run through a few possibilities if the Lakers are able to make room for and acquire another big.
LeBron is never making his mind up as we wait for his decision in the slowest sports week of the year. Chip Kelly looked awesome in a hard hat. Big Cat had his 50/50 Big Check night and waved too much. PFT might have a Philadelphia fetish (00:00:00-00:23:56).

Anthony welcomes Brad Rowland (Locked on Hawks) back into The Lounge to discuss this whole big dumb standoff between the Lakers, Hawks and Jonathan Kuminga. Why are we here in the first place? What are Kuminga's options? What are the Hawks looking for from all this?
We're sure you've done it too. Anthony and Brad take a look around the league to find other scenarios for Jonathan Kuminga that make more sense than starting on the Lakers. There... aren't many -- if any at all. Anthony also plays the most important sound on the show, which gets a good chuckle out of Brad.
Bomani Jones is joined by Vinnie Goodwill from ESPN for a Time Machine Tuesday edition of The Right Time, diving deep into the history and legacy of the 1996 USA Men's Olympic Basketball Team (often called Dream Team 3). Bo and Vinnie compare the squad to the iconic 1992 Dream Team and the 1994 World Championship team, breaking down the incredible roster that featured young superstars like Penny Hardaway and Grant Hill alongside dominant big men Hakeem Olajuwon, Shaquille O'Neal, and David Robinson. They discuss why the 1996 team was a physical powerhouse that routinely blew past international competition, how the legendary 1996 free agency period loomed large over the team's tour, and why Charles Barkley managed to be the leading scorer for both the '92 and '96 Olympic runs. Later, they explore the ultimate "what if" regarding Penny Hardaway's injury-shortened prime, the madness surrounding Shaq signing with the Lakers mid-Olympics, and settle the final debate: could the 1996 roster actually beat Michael Jordan and the 1992 Dream Team? . . .

A listener took note of how active Rob Pelinka was this summer and wondered whether it's fair to now wonder where that was with LeBron James and Anthony Davis while they were Lakers. Anthony thinks the lesson there is pretty obvious, then wraps with a few more questions from the live audience.
The Lakers were able to land Matisse Thybulle at the minimum after countless calls to the Blazers over the last year or so. This is a great signing, as Anthony explains. He also discusses what's on the way as the Lakers are over the limit of guaranteed contracts. He wraps with a Q&A.
Anthony reacts to the Lakers adding Matisse Thybulle on a veteran's minimum contract -- an objectively great move.
We start the show off with some super cross talk Mason, & Momo Ramona Shelburne. The guys are both in studio along with NFL fantasy football expert Marcas Grant who is in with us every Monday. Spain has won the 2026 FIFA World Cup. We discuss our favorite moments from the World Cup. The Los Angeles Lakers signed forward Matisse Thybulle on a one-year $3.3 million.

The Los Angeles Lakers have added another piece to their roster, signing Matisse Thybulle to bolster their perimeter defense. In this episode, I break down what Thybulle brings to Los Angeles, how he fits alongside the Lakers' current core, and whether this move helps their championship aspirations.I also discuss the incredible sale of one of Wilt Chamberlain's warm-up uniforms, which sold for thousands. What makes this piece of NBA history so valuable, and what does it say about the growing market for basketball memorabilia?
Anthony explains how the Lu Dort trade helps the Lakers' chance of landing Jonathan Kuminga, then dives into a Q&A with the live audience.
Anthony reacts to the Lu Dort trade, which sends him east to the Hawks -- and the impact that move has on the west. He also explains how this move hammers home a concern he had with the Lakers' intentions going into this summer. He wraps with a Q&A after discussing this trade's impact on Jonathan Kuminga.
Anthong analyzes the Thunder's decision to send Lu Dort to Atlanta and how it confirmed Anthony's suspicions that Sam Presti would do whatever he could to not keep some of his impact players in the west (and specifically on the Lakers) if he could avoid it.
