## Resource

Anthony and Harrison continue their conversation about the Lakers' efforts to become more like the Dodgers and the speed bumps they've run into, as people around the league aren't sure who will be in charge for how long. They also touch on the Knicks run through the east and, more importantly for Lakers fans, the Cavs falling squarely on their face. LeBron can't possibly look at that and think Cleveland is a better spot to end his career than Los Angeles.
