Summary
With rumors swirling around whether LeBron will be on the Lakers next year and hints that his best chance to win another title might be on another team, Pete and Darius discuss the value of playing next to a motivated Luka Dončić on the Lakers next season and debate the merits to be optimistic about their championship chances, how far away they actually are, and why LeBron finding his way to a new team isn't actually very easy to accomplish.
