Podcast appearances and mentions of Shams Charania

We're back and in the middle of a dry news cycle for NBA fans, a small but possibly interesting little tidbit came up courtesy of ESPN's Shams Charania. He reported that the expected changeover in governorship will be happening two and a half years sooner than expected. So, with Mark Walter taking over the team, and Jeanie Buss, according to earlier reports, keeping her governorship for the next five years, could there be an acceleration in order to make the change a lot sooner? Tune in as the LFB talks about what happened in Boston and how it might speed up the timeline many Lakers fans prefer. And also, what could be the ramifications for personnel if that change happens quickly? Is Jeanie Buss on the way out soon?

The Washington Wizards are trading Kelly Olynyk to the San Antonio Spurs for Malaki Branham, Blake Wesley and a 2026 second-round pick (least favorable of Dallas, Philadelphia, Oklahoma City), according to Shams Charania of ESPN.

In this episode we talk about recent news surrounding the Mavericks, including Shams Charania's report that Anthony Davis played through the end of last season with a detached retina, an eye injury that miraculously did not spiral into a career-threatening situation. We discuss how this is yet another indictment of the incompetent medical staff that the Mavs employed last season. We then share our impressions from the Mavs first Summer League practice before they head to Las Vegas. We discuss our thoughts about Cooper Flagg, Ryan Nembhard, and how the team might look during Summer League. We also cover recent comments from Kyrie Irving surrounding his recovery from a torn ACL, and how it is probably wise not to put pressure and exceptions on him to return to action before he is absolutely ready.
