Summary
Through a quarter of the season, the Suns and the Warriors have differentiated themselves as the class of the Western Conference and, really, as two of the best teams in the entire NBA. Pete, Mike, and Darius discuss what stands out to them about what those teams are doing, in what areas the Lakers currently lag behind them and how they can close that gap. Later, the guys discuss where the Lakers might have some advantages over those teams -- particularly in a playoff setting -- and whether the Lakers current structure and roster are well equipped enough to actually challenge both teams down the road.

| 0:59.0 | I'm Pete, joined by Darius and Mike. And we've been wanting to do this one for a while. A couple of teams have separated themselves from the pack, not only in the Pacific Division Western Conference, but also the entire NBA. The Phoenix Suns and Golden State Warriors have a 20 and 4 record as we record this tied for best in the NBA. |

| 1:15.5 | right now. The Sun's just had, I think, a 17 game winning streak that was snapped by the Golden |
| 1:20.3 | State Warriors. They had a fun little home and home that they split one-on-one. Let's start with |
