Summary

Jason defends LeBron James being mocked on social media for stating the obvious. James played well in the Game 1 loss against Oklahoma City and spoke logically after the game, stating that the offense was lacking because Luka Doncic was sidelined. Jay Skapinac joins Jason to discuss LeBron and James Harden’s turnovers handicapping the Cleveland Cavaliers in a Game 1 loss to Detroit. Why do teams continually trade for him during championship pursuits? Steve Kim and Jason breakdown why college football coaches favor a 24-team playoff system. Kim, Dre Baldwin, and Shemeka Michelle ponder why Stefon Diggs had to defend himself against ludicrous charges. Lastly, Maurice Drake Jr. from Keep the Vision talks WNBA and a controversial WNBA GM poll that throws shade at Caitlin Clark.

0:00.0	LeBron James and the Lakers got beat last night by 18 points.
0:19.0	I think the spread was around 15.
0:21.5	I was predicting they were going to lose by 25.
0:24.9	But they exceeded my expectations last night, but not everyone's expectations.
0:32.3	It's kind of weird.
0:33.8	You know, I'm known as a huge LeBron James critic.
0:41.4	And here in recent months, and just about the entire NBA season, I had virtually nothing negative to say about LeBron James. And I don't
0:48.3	have anything negative to say today. But I'm kind of weirded out or confused why so many people are being critical of LeBron James.
0:57.7	The Oklahoma City Thunder are a gergonaut.
1:00.4	They're probably going to win their second world championship here shortly or this summer.

1:42.3	and seems to be headed to their second world championship.
1:46.9	It, it, the criticism of LeBron after he makes this comment, I'm going to play you this
1:55.3	comment he made about, he's asked about the offense, they only scored 90 points,
1:59.7	and he tells the truth, but some people are using it to criticize LeBron James. Let's play the clip. Do you think the offensive issues are coming from right now? Obviously, that's a great defense. Issues coming from? Yeah. You have a guy that averaged 37 in the game. What do you have? 35 this year? 33. 33 and a half? Yeah. I mean, what do you want? What do you have for? 35 this year?
2:18.7	33 and a half?
