The Lakers checked in on Isaiah Stewart and Kel'el Ware, so Anthony details that info and the more important thing to take from that situation. Another beat reporter wrote about the pressure the Lakers are feeling from Luka Doncic and his camp, so Anthony discusses why this news cycle is a good thing. He wraps with a nice, lengthy Q&A with the live audience and Twitter commenters.

Rob Pelinka's job might be riding on his ability to add the caliber and type of center Luka Doncic is asking for. Anthony explains that situation and why we stand to benefit from it.

Lakers fans should root on Luka Doncic and his camp as they apply pressure to Rob Pelinka and his front office to build the roster he said he would this summer.

Anthony reacts to the reporting about Luka Doncic wanting an "A-list" center on the heels of Doncic going on the record with the kind of player he prefers at that position. One quote in particular leads Anthony to believe this is Doncic (or his camp, at the very least) making it crystal clear what's on the line this summer.

Absolutely packed episode to send us into a critical Father's Day weekend. The guys discuss how they feel about recent reporting around Luka Doncic's demands, Isaiah Stewart being made available, which A-list centers fit Luka's standard and their confidence Rob Pelinka can pull off everything he needs to this summer.

Anthony explains the parts of ESPN's reporting on Luka Doncic's preferences/expectations you need to pay extra close attention to and give his thoughts on what it all means. He then updates the LeBron James and Austin Reaves situations, and discusses how he sees these three players' summers playing out.

Anthony asks the question we're all wondering: If this is indeed Luka Doncic applying pressure, will it work? He has a back-and-forth with the audience about LeBron James that leads to a pretty classic rant. Sorry, Tobias Harris.

That...kinda feels like we're coloring outside the lines a bit here, doesn't it?Oh, by the way...a French World Cup fan has fallen in love with Buc-ee's.

0:00 - The Broncos extended Sean Payton's contract through the 2030 season. It's a classy move by ownership, and totally deserved. Look at Denver's rapid turnaround under the Law Firm of Payton & Paton. According to Vic, Sean Payton and Jared Bednar have very similar resumes. So, why are they both perceived/treated so differently?16:38 - The NHL and NBA seasons are officially OVA. Congrats to the Canes and the Knicks. Now that everything is in the books, has your perception of the Denver teams changed? Are the Avalanche still the most likely team to win a title next? Or have the Broncos surpassed them?28:23 - Oh, by the way...the Colorado Rockies dropped 23 runs on the Las Vegas Athletics of Sacramento via Oakland. Turns out, when you put major league teams in a minor league stadium, they score a lot. Oh, by the way...the Florida Gators are renovating their stadium, and it's going to cost as much, if not more, than building a new stadium from scrath. The math ain't mathin.Oh, by the way...the Dallas Mavericks drafted both Luka Doncic and Jalen Brunson...IN THE SAME CLASS. What a generational fumble.

We also go through every major National League and American League contender with a Why They Win, Why They Lose outlook heading into the stretch run, highlighting the strengths and weaknesses that could define October. Finally, we shift to the NFL and rank our top 10 offenses and top 10 defenses entering the season, including some surprise risers and a few powerhouse teams that could dominate on both sides of the ball.
