| 0:00.0 | Hello, |
| 0:03.0 | It's four three in the win. |
| 0:07.0 | 2020 NBA championship belongs to the Los Angeles Lakers. |
| 0:16.0 | Hello, Lakers Nation. Welcome to the Lakersnation.com postgame show slash podcast. I am Trevor |

| 0:25.6 | Lane NBA. Your Lakers pick up the win over the Phoenix Suns, although I have a feeling that |
| 0:30.6 | when we get into the chat, most people are not going to be too thrilled with that game. |
| 0:35.2 | It was a lackluster performance to say the least from the majority of the |
| 0:39.0 | Lakers. Not everybody. A few of the guys had solid performances and we'll certainly talk about that. |

| 1:23.5 | kings decided to bench everybody as well against the Warriors tonight, which will essentially concede it a win over to the Warriors. And that makes it that much more difficult for the Lakers to get into that six seed. But nonetheless, the Lakers got the wind that they needed, keeps them in the mix, maybe for the seven seed. We'll see how it all plays out. It's kind of a mess in the Western Conference. We'll talk about that a bit more. But again, I don't |
| 1:44.9 | think Lakers fans are coming away from this, feeling great. Although I will say this on the positive |
