Summary
The Eastern Conference gave us a good old fashioned rivalry game on Thursday night when the Nets and 76ers faced off in Philly, bringing all the drama of their trade deadline exchange along with them. Pete, Mike, and Darius use the Nets big win as an entry point to discuss a competitive East playoff race, who their favorites are, and why it feels like as many as 5 teams could end up winning the conference.

| 0:06.0 | Just the Lakers. |
| 0:07.4 | You're kidding. |
| 0:08.6 | That is really a compliment. |
| 0:12.8 | I was pleased to see you smile at the top bar show because once the game starts, you have a game face. |
| 0:17.8 | You don't smile much out there. |
| 0:20.4 | I don't think you have to do things for money anymore. Correct. What's up, Laker fans? Welcome to the Laker Film Room podcast, brought you by the Blue Wire Podcast Network. I'm Pete, joined by Darius and Mike. And today we're going to turn our attention out east, where we had a very fun kind of old-school Eastern Conference rivalry game, an emerging rivalry. Very rarely in the NBA, |
| 0:39.8 | do you see two teams with title aspirations within the same conference make a major trade? |
| 0:45.8 | But they did. And this was Ben Simmons's first time back in Philadelphia. A lot of people came |
| 0:51.6 | to boo. Obviously, he did not play in that game. But then the booze got turned to the Philadelphia 76ers who got whooped pretty good by the, by Brooklyn Nets team that I think had lost, you know, 14 out of its last 17 games or something like that. Kevin Durant was a monster. Seth Curry was great, who they got from Philly. There's some jawing Mike between KD and Joelle M. Bede. |

| 1:41.6 | whole front office, just wanted to do a little, oh, okay, |
| 1:44.5 | okay, James. Yeah. So that was what that was about. I don't think I'm not reading into it too |
