Summary
All-Star Weekend felt especially Lakers-centric as several franchise icons participated in the NBA's 75th Anniversary Team celebration and LeBron James' game winning fadeaway led his team to another victory in Sunday's game, all while his future in Los Angeles was speculated on after he openly spoke about what lies ahead for him after his current contract expires. Pete, Mike, and Darius discuss the weekend's events, offering their takeaways on LeBron's comments, what stood out to them about the game, and why how that game played out could be an analogy for what the Lakers were trying to do with this season's team. Then later, the guys discuss their favorite parts of the 75th Anniversary Team celebration.

| 0:39.9 | They had a beautiful top 75 ceremony. |
| 0:42.9 | Mike, I thought it was a great weekend, but certainly filled with some drama and intrigue |

| 0:48.8 | What were your takeaways from this All-Star weekend? |
| 0:51.0 | Yeah, LeBron certainly was the only guy on this current team that was there, right? Because AD, because of all the injuries and stuff, and he didn't even get the injury replacement.
