Show Notes

Bonus Pod Time! Today we're dropping our "Greatest Teams" podcast covering the 1971-72 Los Angeles Lakers, owners (or previous owners) of some of the greatest records in NBA history, including the (perhaps) unbreakable record of 33 consecutive wins. From the tragedy of Elgin Baylor's retirement to Jerry West's agony, Wilt's excellence, Gail Goodrich's sharp shooting and more, Nate Wall, Jacob Brindle and I break down the roster, the coaching and the stats of this team. We also have my dad come on to give his perspectives, as this was one of his favorite teams of all time!
