Podcast appearances and mentions of Marcus Smart

In this episode of On The Ball, Ric Bucher breaks down LeBron James' long-awaited season debut—and why the box score doesn't tell the truth about how the 40-year-old superstar actually looked against the Utah Jazz. Bucher digs deep into what LeBron's return means for the Lakers' chemistry, the Luka-LeBron power shift, and why L.A.'s defensive issues may only get tougher to solve.Ric also revisits his assessment of Anthony Davis, revealing how AD's early-career reputation, his time alongside LeBron, and his disappointing arrival in Dallas all add up to a harsh but honest conclusion: AD is not the franchise cornerstone many believed he could be. From conditioning concerns to effort questions, Bucher details why the Mavericks may already be ready to move on.Additional themes include: • The strategic way LeBron chose his comeback moment • How Austin Reaves and Marcus Smart's roles shift with LeBron back • Why the Lakers' starting lineup could repeatedly dig early holes • The true value of LeBron's leadership—and its limits at age 40 • How AD's upbringing, mentality, and playing style shaped who he is now • Why the “LeBron Effect” made AD look like a different player in L.A.Ric also previews upcoming episodes, teases his third book—on the value of being coachable—and highlights his other United WeCast Network shows, Finding The Seams and Fullcourt Passport.For authentic NBA insight you won't hear anywhere else, On The Ball delivers.#NBA #LeBronJames #Lakers #AnthonyDavis #LukaDoncic #Mavericks #NBAPodcast #RicBucher #UnitedWeCast #SportsAnalysis #BasketballDiscussion #NBA2025Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/bucher-and-friends.

The Grizzlies faltered down the stretch once again and lost their 5th straight game. Cedric Coward led the team with 19 points and 11 rebounds, and the defense looked improved with Zach Edey, but a weak 4th quarter and Harrison Barnes outplaying Jaren Jackson Jr was too much to overcome.To discuss this loss, and the overall state of the Grizzlies, including Tuomas Iisalo's shaky record, the attitude of Ja Morant, and the goals of this team, Keith is joined by Chris Herrington of The Daily Memphian.Also covered: Dillon Brooks and Marcus Smart sound off about the Grizzlies!To join the listener slack and support the creation of this show, please sign-up at Patreon.com/FastbreakBreakfastUse promo code FBBF and get up to $1000 in bonus cash at Underdog Fantasy: play.underdogfantasy.com/p-fastbreak-breakfastCheck out the NBA and Grizzlies merchandise at teepublic.com/stores/fastbreak-breakfastGet $20 off your first purchase at SeatGeek with promo code: FASTBREAKBREAK

The road trip continues, this time with a stop in Charlotte as they faced off against the Hornets. And with the first quarter seemingly a defensive repeat performance from Atlanta, the Lakers refocused at the half as Luka Doncic (38 points), Austin Reaves (24) and Rui Hachimura (21, 3-3 from 3) ignited the scoring in the third quarter while Marcus Smart (7 steals) turned up the defens to ride the Lakers to a 31-15 advantage over Charlotte to pace them in their 121-111 victory over the Hronets.

Para sorpresa de muchos, o no, los fichajes de Los Angeles Lakers están funcionando de maravilla. Pese a la ausencia de LeBron James, con Luka Doncic ya recuperado y con Austin Reaves manteniendo su papel estelar como escudero, la franquicia angelina ha encontrado en Jake LaRavia, Marcus Smart y compañía una rotación de gran solidez, aporte constante en ambos lados de la pista y fiabilidad para que JJ Redick forme una dinámica de equipo candidato al anillo. Y todo ello sin LeBron, que cuando vuelva tendrá que acoplarse y cumplir con las exigencias que él mismo ha demandado a la gerencia. Siguiendo en el Oeste, qué diferente es la vida entre Oklahoma y Nueva Orleans. El vigente campeón se reivindica en cada partido, y atemoriza más si cabe pese a las ausencias de Chet y Jalen; y la franquicia de Zion sigue dando palos de ciego, firmando un inicio de temporada tristísimo y cero esperanzador, y dando pie a las teorías sobre si la mala gestión de Joe Dumars está más ligada al interés de la NBA por llevarse el proyecto a otra parte. Tampoco están mucho mejor por Dallas y Memphis. Si alguien tenía cierta confianza en que los Mavericks podían ganar más a corto plazo sin Doncic, ya es momento de bajar los brazos y asumir la apabullante realidad: sin Luka no hay paraíso. Otra lesión de Anthony Davis agrava la desgracia en la que se ha sumido el equipo tejano, terriblemente gestionado por un Nico Harrison que apostó por ganar hoy y acabará lamentándose de por vida. En el caso de los Grizzlies, la enésima falta de respeto de Ja Morant los lleva de nuevo a apartar a su jugador franquicia, cada vez más cuestionado y cada vez más cerca de portar un cartel de ‘se vende’ encima de su cabeza. Aun así, todavía puede recibir la confianza de otra franquicia que necesite de la atención que por ahora mantiene.https://linktr.ee/MinimoDeVeterano: https://linktr.ee/MinimoDeVeterano

A spooky night is in order as the Lakers, with a returning Luka Doncic and Marcus Smart to the lineup, travel to the FedEx Forum to try to scare the Memphis Grizzlies in their first NBA Cup game of the season. And Luka failed to disappoint as he became the first Laker since Kobe (2007) to average 45 points in a three-game span with another outstanding performance (44 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists) as the Lakers frightened Memphis with a 117-112 victory. Tune in as the guys from the LFB share thoughts on the game, provide insight on the return for Luka, congratulate Mark Walter for becoming the official owner of the Lakers, and get you up to speed on what's next on the schedule.

Luka, LeBron, Gabe and Maxi are all out. Marcus Smart tweaked his knee last night. Jaxson Hayes also missed the game. Depth wasn't a strength coming into this season.

The Lakers, in their final tuneup before the start of the NBA season, welcome the Sacramento Kings to the Crypt in Los Angeles. And with Coach JJ Redick utilizing the lineup that will start the season next week, the Lakers' strong shooting through three quarters gave way to the backups giving the game away as Luka's 31 points and nine assists weren't enough to have the reserves hold off the Kings as they lost 117-116 to end the preseason at 1-5. Tune in to check out the thoughts of the guys from the LFB, and how the lineup that will start the season played in the game. Plus, how did Marcus Smart do in his second game of action, and how did Gabe Vincent look as the starter replacing LeBron? All this and Joe Soro celebrates the Dodgers advancing to the World Series and witnessing perhaps the greatest baseball performance from Shohei Ohtani. It's the Lakers and Kings as they finish up the preseason, and we're here to cover it all on the Lakers Fast Break podcast!Join our ESPN Fantasy Basketball league today at https://fantasy.espn.com/basketball/league/join?leagueId=30141684&inviteId=9ba77551-64a5-4358-af95-81668b830509Follow @DripShowshop for some awesome sports merchandise!Check out Dodgers baseball on Playback at https://www.playback.tv/thejoesorooxperimentJoe's new game Coreupt is OUT NOW!

The Lakers get back to the court in preseason as they head to Phoenix for a date with the Suns. And with Luka scoring 22 on efficient scoring in the first half of his preseason debut (and Austin Reaves chipping in with 18 of his 25 overall), the Lakers looked strong after the first 24 minutes. But the players sent out to do most of the work in the second half couldn't keep the pace as the Suns' backups proved stronger as they passed the Lakers to a 113-104 victory. The guys from the LFB have observations on what happened during the game and how Luka (25 on the night as a whole) and Marcus Smart (0 in 20 minutes) looked in their first game action of the preseason. All this and we celebrate the Dodgers going up 2-0 in the NLCS as well.
