I Love Basketball: The Originator and the Future of Player Empowerment Converge on the Lakers

Hampered by a voice quickly fading due to sickness, and Sabreena's devastating absence, Sasha attempts to pull off a solo pod in the vein of Stephen A. Smith. It delightfully feels like you are right there with her at midnight in her room talking about basketball with the crickets chirping in the background and the occasional whoosh of a passing car (giver her a break, she lives off Sunset — it's a busy area). The NBA doesn’t have a whole lot left to give us this offseason, and we’re all getting a little hungry as a result, so Sasha moves away from speculation about the team’s roster fit and addresses the chatter around the league and media about the nature of Anthony Davis' departure from New Orleans. The originator of the player empowerment era, Lebron, and one of the prominent faces of the future, AD, converge on our beloved team. She also discusses the AD introductory press conference through the lens of player empowerment. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
