Summary

Raja and Howard are back with a New Year's Eve edition of 'Real Ones.' Raja explains what it’s like to play on New Year's (1:03). The Sacramento Kings have fired yet another coach in Mike Brown, who won Coach of the Year in 2023. Should De’Aaron Fox and the players take some accountability for Brown's firing, and where does this revolving coaching door come from with the Kings (7:40)? The Lakers and Nets traded D’Angelo Russell and Dorian Finney-Smith, along with some picks. Will DFS help the Lakers improve and contend for a title? And why can’t DLo find a permanent home (29:00)? Plus, Cliff’s Sixers are rolling and a mailbag! The Ringer is committed to responsible gaming. Please visit www.rg-help.com to learn more about the resources and helplines available.
