Los Angeles: So, Kevin O’Connor had a chat with Dan Titus about some big NBA moves. They kicked things off with the Lakers trading D’Angelo Russell for Dorian Finney-Smith. It’s a pretty interesting trade, and they talked about what the Lakers might still need to be a stronger team.

Then, they shifted gears to the Grizzlies, who missed out on Finney-Smith. It’s been a tough season for them, and KOC and Dan wondered what this means for Memphis moving forward.

Next up, they touched on the Nets, who are clearly in rebuild mode. KOC also gave a shoutout to the Orlando Magic’s Tristan Da Silva, who’s been impressing everyone lately.

As the conversation continued, they discussed Mike Brown’s firing in Sacramento. The Kings have had a rough start, and it sounds like they really need to hit the reset button. They even tossed around ideas about where D’Aaron Fox might end up, with the Spurs being a potential fit.

Finally, KOC and Bryce Simon dove into the Pistons’ early season struggles, focusing on Cade Cunningham. While he’s improving, there are still some concerns about his finishing and turnovers. They also talked about the inconsistency of Ivey and Duren, and whether adding someone like Zach LaVine could help the Pistons take a step forward.
