(1:15:21-1:25:08) – At the tail end of the previous segment, it was announced that Myles Garrett will be heading to the Rams for Jared Verse and a collection of picks going back to the Browns.

(00:00-29:47) – Query & Company opens a Friday with Jake Query and producer Eddie Garrison discussing the loss last night for the Indiana Fever against the Golden State Valkyries. They dive into some of the unfair expectations and difficulty of Caitlin Clark fans to be reasonable every time that she doesn’t have a great performance. (29:47-36:16) – The Caitlin Clark conversation continues with Jake and Eddie focusing on the fact that people need to recognize that the talent level in the WNBA is at the highest that it’s every been and that there are really good players that aren’t in the WNBA right now because there aren’t enough franchises to support the number of good players. (36:16-48:16) – Jake Query and Eddie Garrison conclude the first hour of the show by explaining the background of Luke Kennard because it puts into perspective the challenges that are in the NBA with players accepting that they are just a role player.

(1:15:50-1:28:40) – Jake tries to make the show interactive today by welcoming callers onto the program, but he only gets two callers that want to ask him some IndyCar questions.

It results in a conversation about how there is a divide on social media of people supporting her and people that are trying to create a divide by pointing blame for her shortcomings in a game on Stephanie White or the WNBA because they have an agenda to make life difficult for Clark. (2:02:16-2:17:07) – Every Friday on Query & Company, Jake shares a good for the heart story sponsored by Franciscan Health. Today, he is joined by Alex Wollf from IndyCar radio to discuss the cool story between him and Felix Rosenqvist that became fulfilled on Sunday because of the sacrifice that his dad made when Alex was a kid.

The Los Angeles Lakers take a tough 131-108 loss, and Bubba Dub is breaking it all down with his unfiltered reaction. From the slow start to another rough third quarter, this game raised serious questions about effort, execution, and leadership. Bubba Dub dives into what went wrong and why the Lakers now find themselves in a dangerous position in the series. LeBron James finished with 19 points but struggled to make a major impact when the team needed it most. Deandre Ayton added 10 points and 6 rebounds, but the production from key players just wasn't enough to compete with a strong OKC performance. Meanwhile, Oklahoma City came out aggressive, with players like Luke Kennard stepping up and helping push the game out of reach. In this episode, Bubba Dub also touches on:The Lakers' third-quarter strugglesCoaching decisions and rotationsWhether this series is already out of reachThe current NBA playoff landscape, including the Knicks, Spurs, Detroit, and ClevelandIt's a mix of real basketball talk, strong opinions, and classic Bubba Dub commentary you don't want to miss.

The Lakers set out on their most important game of the season with a do-or-die matchup against Oklahoma City in Game Three of the NBA Playoffs Second Round. And even with Rui Hachimura and Luke Kennard lighting it up from three (9-14 combined), the Lakers could only muster a one-point lead at the half. But as has been the trend of the series so far, the second half proved to be a different story as the Thunder's superior depth wore down LA as they hit another gear and dusted off the Lakers in easy fashion, 131-108 to go down 3-0 and on the cusp of being eliminated. Tune in as the guys have their reaction to the game, and what may happen in game four.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Friday. Munaf Manji and Uncle Diamond Dave Esler close out the week on Cash That Ticket, the sports betting podcast on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed, with three NBA playoff Game 3s and a full MLB Friday card on the board. The guys are coming off a 3-and-2 individual week and a 6-and-4 combined mark, and they are locked in to finish strong. On the NBA side, the show opens with a deep breakdown of Celtics and 76ers in Philadelphia, where Dave admits he loves the Sixers at plus seven and a half despite his loyalty to Boston, pointing to VJ Edgecombe and Tyrese Maxey as two players capable of shooting right over the Celtics defense at home. Munaf fires back with a compelling multi-year trend under head coach Joe Mazzulla showing Boston at 12-and-2 straight up and against the spread in playoff road games following a loss, including five straight covers and seven wins in the last eight such situations, every one by at least eight points. He also notes positive shooting regression is coming for Derrick White, Jayson Tatum, and Sam Hauser after a combined cold night in Game 2. Moving to Houston, the short-handed Lakers hold a stunning two-game series lead with Luke Kennard and Marcus Smart having combined for 48 points in Game 2, and both hosts land on the Lakers plus eight and a half while debating whether the over makes more sense given how suppressed the total has become. Munaf makes the case that Reed Sheppard's 11 minutes of playing time in Game 2 is the single biggest problem for Houston's offense, and he names Kevin Durant points over 23.5 as his prop bet of the night given Durant's 41 minutes of usage and his role as the Rockets' primary scoring option in a must-win home environment. In Portland, Victor Wembanyama's concussion status dominates the conversation as the Spurs arrive with their best player officially listed as questionable. Both hosts lean the over given the pace rankings of both teams and Portland's higher three-point accuracy at home, while Dave endorses the Blazers team total over and names Robert Williams III points, rebounds, and assists over 15 at minus 122 as his best bet of the day, citing Williams' 11-point, nine-rebound, four-assist performance off the bench in Game 2. Munaf backs Jrue Holiday PRA over 27.5 on FanDuel as his other best bet, building the case around Holiday's 30 PRA in Game 2 and his locked-in usage for Portland. On the MLB side, Dave highlights the Nationals and White Sox over as a prime bullpen game spot with favorable weather and two of the worst relief corps in baseball, while Munaf adds the Brewers at plus odds against Paul Skenes, the Yankees team total over against Lance McCullers Jr., and the Cleveland Guardians riding a nine-and-one straight-up after-a-loss trend against Max Scherzer and Toronto.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Wednesday. Wednesday, April 22, 2026 on Cash That Ticket, Munaf Manji and Uncle Diamond Dave Esler open a loaded episode fresh off a two-and-oh best bet night, with Jrue Holiday delivering for Portland and the Celtics-Sixers under cashing in a tightly contested Game 2 that evened the Eastern Conference series heading back to Philadelphia. The big injury news from Tuesday night centers on Victor Wembanyama, who went down hard in the second quarter against Portland after hitting his chin on the floor and has been placed in the NBA's concussion protocol, a development both hosts expect to cost him at minimum Games 3 and 4 of the Spurs-Blazers series and one that will reshape betting lines across the Western Conference bracket as the week progresses. Over in the Lakers-Rockets series, Munaf and Dave dig into why a short-handed Los Angeles team is up 2-0 on Houston, crediting LeBron James and an unexpected backcourt of Luke Kennard and Marcus Smart, who combined for 48 points in Game 2 while Kevin Durant finished with nine turnovers and just three second-half points despite being the more heralded star in the matchup. The depth of the analysis on Game 2 between Orlando and Detroit is where this episode really locks in, with Dave identifying the matchup problem Detroit faces against a Magic team that has size, length, and balance in their starting five, while Munaf breaks down the free throw disparity, the paint differential, and the realistic expectation of positive shooting regression from Desmond Bane and Jalen Suggs, who combined to go 4-of-18 from three in Game 1 while Cade Cunningham accounted for nearly 39 percent of the Pistons' entire offensive output on his own. Both hosts land on Orlando plus 8.5 with Munaf adding the money line as a secondary consideration, and neither would be shocked to see the eight seed leave Detroit with a 2-0 series lead. The Oklahoma City Thunder discussion arrives at the same conclusion via a different path, with Dave and Munaf breaking down why Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's 25 points on 5-of-18 shooting in a blowout win tells you everything you need to know about the talent gap between the defending champions and a Phoenix Suns team whose three best offensive players combined for seven total assists in Game 1. Dave targets the Suns team total under and the Thunder in the first quarter, while Munaf rides the Thunder team total over 116.5, reasoning that Oklahoma City can hit that number while still pulling their starters in the fourth. The MLB segment covers a full Wednesday card headlined by Shohei Ohtani on the mound for the Dodgers against the Giants, Max Fried facing Ranger Suárez in a Yankees-Red Sox clash at Fenway, Walker Buehler looking to extend his comeback against Colorado, and a Mets team that has now dropped twelve straight games, prompting dark comedy and real sympathy in equal measure. Dave's best bet is the Mets-Twins first five innings under 4.5, built around a young Minnesota arm named Pryor who has elite strikeout numbers in the minors and faces a Mets lineup that has been historically quiet. Munaf's best bet is the Cade Cunningham PRA over 45.5 at minus 108 on DraftKings, banking on guaranteed usage, shot volume, and multi-category production from the Pistons' only reliable offensive weapon in what amounts to a must-not-lose Game 2.

Segment One: Lakers' Grit and the Clippers' Crossroads Host Grant Mona is joined by Demetrius Beaver and Mykell Mathieu to break down a tale of two franchises. While the Lakers opened their postseason with a statement win, the Clippers are left picking up the pieces of an abrupt exit. Lakers Game 1 Masterclass: Grant and the panel react to the Lakers' 107–98 victory over the Rockets. Even without Luka and Reaves, Luke Kennard's 27-point explosion and LeBron's playmaking (13 assists) showed that the Lakers' "competitive stamina" is real. The "Ayton Factor": Demetrius points out how Deandre Ayton outworked the Rockets' frontcourt, a matchup that could define the series. Mykell asks if the Rockets, even with Kevin Durant sidelined, can handle a Lakers defense that looks more locked in than it did during the regular season. Clippers' "Toddler" Timeline: The group pivots to the Intuit Dome, where a 126–121 Play-In loss to the Warriors ended the season. Grant analyzes Lawrence Frank's end-of-season presser, specifically the commitment to "win with Kawhi" while simultaneously pivoting to a younger core featuring Darius Garland and Bennedict Mathurin. Panel Debate: Is "building a bridge" to the future while keeping a 35-year-old Leonard realistic? Mykell argues the Clippers have finally found a direction, while Demetrius questions if the "contender" window is officially shut. Segment Two: Draft Season | Lottery Luck & NFL Prospects The focus shifts to the future as the NBA Draft Lottery looms and the NFL Draft arrives in just three days. NBA Draft Lottery Odds: Grant breaks down the stakes for the Clippers. Thanks to the Paul George trade of 2019, the Thunder control the Clippers' pick, which currently has a 1.5% chance at No. 1. The Pacers Protection: There is a silver lining. If the Indiana Pacers' pick (which the Clippers own via the Mathurin/Zubac trade) falls to 5th or 6th, it belongs to LA. Currently, there is a 48% chance the Clippers land a top-six selection through this pick. NFL Draft Preview: With the Las Vegas Raiders on the clock at No. 1, Grant and the guests look at the top prospects. The QB Sweepstakes: Fernando Mendoza (Indiana) is the consensus top pick, but the panel discusses whether the Giants' trade for Dexter Lawrence signals a shift in the top 10.

Houston Rockets vs. LA Lakers NBA Pick Prediction by Tony T. Rockets at Lakers Injuries VanVleet is out for Houston with Durant questionable. Luka and Reaves are out for LA. Recent Box Score Key Stats Rockets at Lakers 10:30PM ET—LA is up 1-0 in this series following their 107-98 home victory against Houston. Lakers shot 61% with 53% from three. Luke Kennard led with 27 points with four rebounds. LeBron James contributed 19 points with 13 assists. Houston shot 38% with 33% from three. Alperin Sengun scored 19 points with eight rebounds. Amen Thompson chipped in with 17 points with seven assists.

Luke Kennard played really well in game one. Some fans have used that as an excuse to bring back the conversation of trading Austin Reaves. Anthony wonders what's going on there, then goes on a bit of a rant against player-centric agendas vs. what's best for the Lakers (his focus).

  NBA Playoffs Breakdown The NBA Playoffs are officially underway, and Bubba Dub is back breaking down everything from Game 1 between the Los Angeles Lakers and Houston Rockets.The Lakers take Game 1, 107-98, but Bubba Dub keeps it real  this wasn't a perfect win. LeBron James continues to prove why he's one of the greatest ever, finishing with 19 points, 13 assists, and 8 rebounds at 41 years old, controlling the pace and getting everyone involved early. The Lakers offense was on fire, shooting over 60% from the field and over 50% from three, led by big performances from Luke Kennard, Deandre Ayton, and Marcus Smart. But despite the win, there are concerns:20 turnovers21 offensive rebounds allowed to HoustonThat's not championship-level basketball, and Bubba Dub calls it out. On the Rockets side, Alperen Sengun, Amen Thompson, and Jabari Smith Jr. all contributed, but without Kevin Durant in the lineup, Houston struggled to keep up offensively. Bubba Dub asks the big question  is KD ducking Game 1 smoke, or will he change the series when he returns? Looking ahead, Bubba Dub predicts Lakers in 6, but says this series could shift quickly if LA doesn't clean up their mistakes. The episode also covers:Nuggets vs Timberwolves breakdown and Jokic's dominanceKnicks vs Hawks series outlookCavs vs Raptors recapThe GOAT debate: LeBron vs Jordan

Host Grant Mona breaks down a defining weekend for Los Angeles basketball. We start at Crypto.com Arena, where the short-handed Lakers won a physical Game 1. Then, we head to Inglewood, where Clippers President Lawrence Frank faced the music following a disappointing early exit. Segment One: Lakers Take Game 1 | The Kennard & LeBron Connection The Los Angeles Lakers opened their first-round series with a gritty 107–98 win over the Houston Rockets on Saturday night. Despite playing without leading scorers Luka Dončić (hamstring) and Austin Reaves (oblique), the Lakers found a way to clamp down when it mattered most. Luke's Career Night: Grant reacts to Luke Kennard's massive performance. Stepping into the starting lineup, Kennard delivered a team-high 27 points and hit five triples, providing the spacing the Lakers desperately needed. LeBron the Facilitator: At 41, LeBron James continues to defy age. Grant breaks down LeBron's "Point-Forward" masterclass, finishing with 19 points, 13 assists, and 8 rebounds. His ability to settle the game in the fourth quarter against Houston's young pressure was the difference. The Defensive Blueprint: We hear from JJ Redick on how the Lakers held Alperen Sengun and the Rockets to under 100 points. Redick praised the "competitive stamina" of Deandre Ayton and Marcus Smart, noting that this series will be won in the trenches. Segment Two: Lawrence Frank on the Clippers' Future | "Win with Kawhi" Following the Clippers' Play-In loss to the Warriors, President of Basketball Operations Lawrence Frank held his end-of-season press conference on Friday to address a franchise at a crossroads. The Commitment to Kawhi: Grant analyzes Frank's definitive statement: "Our plan is to win with Kawhi." Despite Leonard sidestepping questions about his future after the loss, Frank reaffirmed that the Clippers intend to sit down with the superstar this offseason to align their goals for the final year of his contract. Three Areas of Improvement: Frank was blunt about where the roster failed this season. Grant breaks down the three priorities Frank listed for the summer: Rebounding, secondary ball-handling, and shooting. The "Bridge to Contender": We hear Frank's perspective on the mid-season moves—specifically the Darius Garland and Bennedict Mathurin trades. Frank believes the team has built a "bridge" to being a contender again with emerging young talent and draft capital, but Grant questions if the "toddler" timeline fits Kawhi's veteran window.

The Lakers begin their playoff run with game one vs #5 Houston Saturday night at the Crypt. And paced by Luke Kennard's 27 points, LeBron James ' playmaking (19 points, 8 rebounds, 13 assists), and DeAndre Ayton's success in the paint (19 points, 11 rebounds), the Lakers were able to shoot 61% from the field as they upended the Rockets 107-98 to take a 1-0 series lead. Tune in as the guys from the LFB share thoughts on the game, how a team effort gave LA this great win, the areas of attention that need to be addressed before game two, and more! It's the Lakers and Rockets as the Lakers take an early 1-0 lead, and we're here to cover it all on the Lakers Fats Break podcast!

Host Grant Mona breaks down a somber night in Inglewood as the Clippers' season comes to an abrupt end at the hands of a familiar rival. Then, we look ahead to the weekend as the Lakers prepare to start their title defense against the Rockets while navigating a growing injury report. Segment One: Clippers vs. Warriors Recap and the End of the Season The LA Clippers saw their 2025-26 campaign end on Wednesday night with a 126–121 loss to the Golden State Warriors in the Play-In Tournament at the Intuit Dome. A Heartbreaker at the Dome: Grant reacts to the Clippers blowing a 12-point second-half lead. Despite the Warriors' stars being on a 40-minute restriction, Steph Curry's late-game heroics proved to be too much for a Clippers defense that struggled to get stops in crunch time. Ty Lue's Final Assessment: We hear from Tyronn Lue, who was visibly frustrated during the postgame presser. Lue addressed the season's inconsistencies and the difficulty of finding a rhythm with constant roster shifts, though he praised the "fight" of his players until the final buzzer. The Offseason Question: Grant analyzes Kawhi Leonard's quiet 19-point performance and what this early exit means for the future of the franchise. With the Clippers missing the true playoff bracket for the second straight year, the conversation now turns to whether this core has reached its ceiling. Segment Two: Lakers Practice and the Game 1 Outlook vs. the Rockets The Los Angeles Lakers held a high-intensity practice on Thursday morning as they prepare for Saturday's Game 1 matchup against the Houston Rockets at Crypto.com Arena. The Luka and Austin Void: Grant discusses the atmosphere at practice with Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves officially ruled out for the start of the series. JJ Redick told the media that while losing two primary ball-handlers is a "massive challenge," the team's defensive identity hasn't changed. Focusing on the Frontcourt: We hear from LeBron James and Luke Kennard, who both emphasized that the Lakers will need to play "bully ball" to neutralize Houston's speed. Redick's Strategic Shift: Redick hinted at a rotation that leans heavily on Rui Hachimura and Luke Kennard to provide the spacing needed for LeBron to operate. The message from the Lakers' camp is clear: the road to a repeat is harder now, but the standard remains championship or bust. Produced by: Grant Mona Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Utah Jazz vs. LA Lakers NBA Pick Prediction by Tony T. Jazz vs. Lakers Injuries Collier, George and Markkanen are doubtful for Utah. Filipowski, Harkless and Sensabaugh are questionable. Luka and Reaves are out for LA with Hayes questionable. Recent Box Score Key Stats Jazz at Lakers 8:40PM ET—Utah improved to 22-59 following their 147-101 home victory against Memphis. Jazz shot 56% with 43% from three. Blake Hinson led with 30 points with two assists. K Chandler contributed 26 points with ten assists. Utah allowed 38% shooting with 21% from three. LA improved to 52-29 after their 101-73 home victory against Phoenix. Lakers shot 51% with 40% from three. LeBron scored 28 points with 12 assists. Luke Kennard supported with 19 points and three assists. LA allowed 34% shooting with 18% from three.

The Lakers looked to close out the season strong with 4th (and even 3rd) place in the West on the line in the first of their final two games as they returned home to the Crypt on Friday against the Phoenix Suns. And with the visitors holding out star play Devin Booker (just as Golden State did on Thursday with Steph Curry), the short-handed Lakers took advantage as they outscored Phoenix in the second half 44-25 and capped off back-to-back easy victories as they cooled off the Suns 101-73. Tune in as the guys recap what they saw in the game, why LeBron James (28 points, 12 assists) continues to earn our recent praise, how Luke Kennard (19 points) has stepped up to become an effective facilitator, where the Lakers are at in their seeding for the playoffs, and what lies ahead on Sunday as they finish off the regular season.

Host Grant Mona breaks down a night where the Lakers proved they are more than just a one-man show, while the Dodgers' pursuit of a perfect season came to a halt under the lights at Dodger Stadium. Segment One: "Praise-Worthy" — Lakers Roll Without Luka The Los Angeles Lakers moved to 49–26 on the season after a dominant 120–111 victory over the Washington Wizards on Monday night. Despite star guard Luka Dončić serving a one-game suspension for his 16th technical foul, the Lakers never blinked. Vintage LeBron: Grant reacts to a historic performance from LeBron James, who dropped 21 points, 10 rebounds, and 12 assists. At 41 years old, James broke his own record for the oldest player to record a triple-double. JJ Redick's Take: We hear from the head coach, who admitted he was "out of superlatives" for James. "I'll just say he's very praise-worthy. I don't know what else to say about him at this point," Redick told the media. Next Man Up: Grant highlights the contributions of Austin Reaves (19 pts, 9 ast) and Luke Kennard (19 pts), who ensured the offense stayed fluid. With this win, the Lakers sit 1.5 games ahead of Denver for the 3rd seed with seven games to play. Segment Two: The First Blemish — Sasaki's Debut & Rushing's Trust The Dodgers' undefeated start ended on Monday with a 4–2 loss to the Cleveland Guardians. Grant analyzes the much-anticipated regular-season debut of Roki Sasaki and why this loss might actually be a long-term win. The Sasaki Report: After a shaky spring, Sasaki allowed just one run over four innings. Grant breaks down the "mental hurdle" Sasaki cleared after a nervous start. We hear from Roki Sasaki through a translator: "I actually didn't have the confidence at all when this game started... I was just focusing on doing what I can control." The Batterymate's Bond: Backup catcher Dalton Rushing got the start behind the plate and provided the viral moment of the night, pumping up Sasaki during the walk in from the bullpen. Rushing told the media, "I told him it was just me and him... you were a really good pitcher for a long time in Japan for a reason." Roberts' Outlook: Dave Roberts discusses the decision to pull Sasaki after 65 pitches and why seeing Roki "build true confidence" was the most important takeaway of the night, despite the final score.

The hapless Wizards are next on the docket for the Lakers as Washington strolled on by the Crypt as they looked to end their season as fast as possible with a matchup against LA. And with Luka Doncic and Marcus Smart both out, the Lakers looked to LeBron James with a triple-double (21 points, 10 rebounds, 12 assists), Luke Kennard and Austin Reaves (19 points each), and the center pair of DeAndre Ayton and Jaxson Hayes (a combined 31 points, 14 rebounds, and five blocked shots) to get the job done as the Lakers turned a 40-18 second quarter into an outcome that was never in doubt the rest of the way as the Lakers cruised to a 120-101 victory or the Wiz. Tune in as the guys from the LFB share thoughts on the Lakers without Luka and Smart in the lineup, how the team fared against one of the worst teams in the NBA, the reality of Bronny James possibly making a rotation contribution, and what's up next for the team on the schedule.

The narrator in Black Bag is an unnamed and mostly unemployed actor until a professor offers him the starring role in an experiment. The narrator is asked to zip himself in a black bag and sit in the back of a lecture theater. Luke Kennard's new novel is based on an experiment from 1967, in which a professor set out to explore “the mere-exposure effect.” In today's episode, Kennard talks with NPR's Scott Simon about why the protagonist takes up this non-role – and what the experiment reveals about masculinity.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayTo manage podcast ad preferences, review the links below:See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

We have a jam-packed episode of The Dunker Spot coming your way! Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones have a broader discussion about the Defensive Player of the Year and All-Defensive team races. They discuss what they're evaluating, how they weigh different types of defenders and the value of their responsibilities, what statistics they find useful, and a PSA to always, always #WatchTheTape. From there, the guys check in on Jayson Tatum ahead of a potential Finals preview between the Celtics and Thunder. They talk about his growing fit within the offense, growth areas they're keeping an eye on (OTD shooting, drive, lower-body power generation), and have a mini-debate about the Celtics potentially tweaking his usage to aid his comfort in the offense. Next, Nekias asks Steve about a couple of end-of-game defensive mishaps that led to game-winning baskets -- Amen Thompson's putback against the Heat, and Luke Kennard's three against the Magic -- to see where he thought blame, if any, should go. Finally, New Orleans Pelicans rookie Derik Queen joins the show! In a wide-ranging conversation, the trio talks about Queen's basketball journey, his stacked Montverde team, adjusting to the Pelicans vs. his teammates adjusting to him, the Baltimore Ravens' offseason and more!

Luke Kennard chats about BLACK BAG, a novel about an out-of-work actor who takes a bizarre job for a university professor: sitting silently inside a large leather bag during lectures as part of a psychological experiment.

The Lakers celebrated Luka Doncic's birthday with a trip to the Bay Area as they ended the mini road trip in the confines of the Chase Center with a contest against the Golden State Warriors. And with a depleted Golden State roster on tap, the Lakers gave Luka a great present with an efficient LeBron James (22 points, 9 assists 7-13 shooting) and Austin Reaves (18 points 7-11 overall), a productive bench with Luke Kennard and Jake LaRavia (a combined 31 points on 7-13 from three), and the birthday boy himself (26 points, 8 assists on 9-17 from the floor) blew out the Golden State candles himself putting the finishing touches with a hot streak from three to start the second half as the Lakers cruised to a lead more than thirty points and finished up with an easy 129-101 victory over the Warriors. Tune in as the guys from the LFB share thoughts on the game, wish Luka their own Happy Birthday, and give everyone a heads up on what's up next for the team.

The Gil's Arena NBA Trade Deadline Special as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew react to the BIG MOVES of The NBA Trade Deadline inside Gil's Arena and give their takes on the biggest transaction day of the NBA Season. They kick things off by reacting to Jonathan Kuminga finally getting released from the clutches of the Golden State Warriors franchise as the team shipped off their young superstar to the Atlanta Hawks alongside Buddy Hield in exchange for Kristaps Porzingis and debate if this was a good move for the Dubs or just a simple salary dump to clear themselves of Kuminga. They then react to the Lakers finally making a move as the purple and gold aquired Luke Kennard to add to their collection of exciting whites and break down what the sharpshooter brings to a lineup with LeBron James, Luka Doncic & Austin Reaves. They then break down some smaller moves like the OKC Thunder's brilliant decision to trade for Jared McCain and the Minnesota Timberwolves decision to bring in Ayo Dosunmu before reacting to Shai Gilgeous Alexander going down with an abdominal strain, potentially putting his MVP Season and the Thunder's #1 seed in jeopardy. Finally, they react to Kawhi Leonard being added to the NBA All Star Roster, sparking a debate on if The Klaw will help the USA take down the World in the NBA's midseason classic and react to Cooper Flagg dropping a career high 49 points on Kon Knueppel to prove he's the best rookie in the NBA, discussing how Jason Kidd should stand on business over his decision to play Flagg at the Point Guard position early in his career.
