The guys Tip Off by talking about the recent matchup between the league’s two most surprising teams—the Bulls and the Sixers—and decide which team’s early success feels most likely to sustain over the course of the season. Then, in the Vibe Check (23:30), they discuss the ongoing Ja Morant saga and whether Ja finishes the season with the Grizzlies or ends up somewhere like Sacramento, Miami, or New Orleans.
Finally, for 3-Up/3-Down (37:42), they discuss the Dallas Mavericks and their woeful offense (37:57), the Los Angeles Lakers and their incredibly efficient one and what that looks like when LeBron returns (43:44) , Cameron Johnson being MIA in D E N (58:40), the Pistons surging out to a strong start (1:05:22), Desmond Bane and the Magic doing the exact opposite (1:17:36), Keyonte George getting buckets (1:33:06), and the Blazers making their first-ever appearance on both the good (1:29:47) and bad (1:35:28) sides of the ledger.
