Defense Wins Championships

Tom Haberstroh, Amin Elhassan and producer Anthony Mayes are here to remind you that we predicted Luka to the Lakers TWO YEARS AGO. When Nico Harrison needed to explore the possibility of trading his Slovenian Superstar, he turned to someone he knew he could trust, a confidant and fellow member of Kobe Bryant's inner circle: Rob Pelinka. Dallas lawyer Chris Kratovil did some pro bono work for the Illumination to connect the dots between the Mavericks ownership desiring to open a casino in Texas and the Luka trade. Finally, Truth Teller Marcus Elliott of P3 joins the show to discuss their role in the NBA's new league-wide biomechanics program announced earlier this year.
