Summary

Verno and Jacoby discuss Steph Curry’s historic night after he dropped 56 points in Orlando and also talk about the Lakers' win against the Wolves despite an off night from Luka Doncic, who's continued to struggle with his shot since arriving in L.A. Despite the struggles, the Lakers have looked strong with Luka, and the Warriors are 6-1 with Jimmy Butler and are currently on a five-game win streak heading into the weekend. Now that they have Jimmy and Luka, is it time to seriously consider the Warriors and Lakers championship contenders? Next, they give out their loves and loathes from the week that was.
