Welcome everybody to your favorite day of the week.

I'm Anthony Erwin.

I'm joined by Adam Mattis and this is locked on NBA.

Adam, my team's about to sign the Carmelo Anthony. I need this all start

break so badly. I need it so badly. You know, Carmelo Anthony left Denver nine

years ago and I gotta say it's it's been all right.

Don't necessarily things have worked out good for Denver.

This is a Laker fans find themselves in a dark place and what we're going to do for today's show is we're

going to as we are the last show before the all-star break we are going to get everybody ready

for all of the all of the festivities. We're going to break down Friday and Saturday

We're going to break down the all-star game itself

But I love it but in segment one we're going to focus on the story lines that caught our attention heading into the all-star break.

So let's start there, Adam. You were tasked with putting together your list of story lines.

What's number one at the very top of your list?

Well, of course I was tasked with it, Anthony.

I do the work for the show and you're sort of the face of the show, but I believe in show

prep.

No, number one, I think it's something we need a

better face. Something you're very familiar with which is the Lakers

collapse. It's story number one and I don't know if collapse is the right word.
