Summary
The first hour of Friday's show is spent discussing LeBron James' stunning decision to sign with the Philadelphia 76ers. Mike and Brendan Schabath think it exposes the Pistons' relative weakness, and highlights an underwhelming offseason in which the team only marginally improved. Jalen Duren's ongoing contract negotiations feel like a bitter pill to swallow in light of the day's developments.
