48 Minutes: Lakers Trade for Rui, The Celtics' Kryptonite, & Thunder Down Under

0:00 Hello and Welcome 0:45 Rui Hachimura to the Lakers ... he'll be a big piece moving forward ... his presence is examined from all angles.  How he should flourish with LeBron James as a teammate. 5:00 Jonathan Isaac returns for Orlando and lights it up in his first game back. 6:40 Anthony Davis and Brandon Ingram will be back ... and not a moment too soon for their teams. 9:22 The Celtics were rolling into Orlando on Monday with a 9 game win streak, but a funny thing happened on the way to 10 straight. 16:56 The Sixers are finding ways to win despite being short handed for much of the season.  Their role players have really stepped up.  PJ Tucker has provided grit even with limited numbers. 22:16 The Nets are heating up as Kyrie Irving raises his game in Kevin Durant's absence.  He's getting help from role players like Nic Claxton, Royce O'Neale, and TJ Warren. 28:29 Halftime Break 28:45 The Thunder are rising in the west behind Shai Gilgeous Alexander and the kid from Down Under Josh Giddey. 34:17 Phoenix hopes to rise from the ashes with Chris Paul back on the court and Devin Booker hopefully returning soon.  DeAndre Ayton needs to get more aggressive blocking shots. 40:29 Mail Bag ... Bruce compares and contrasts Celtics stars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown against Larry Bird and Kevin McHale from the 1980's Celtics.  You may be surprised at what he tells you. 44:03 Mail Bag ... Ross answers a question about O.G. Anunoby's "up side." 46:31 Ross shares his best bets in the world of shot blockers and how they can make you some $$$. 48:55 Bruce praises Shannon Sharpe for owning his poor behavior at the Grizzlies/Lakers game last Friday. 50:08 World B thinks Kawhi Leonard is about to lead the Clippers on a nice run. 52:36 Ross has a great suggestion for the rules committee when it comes to running out the clock and why players are unfairly treated when they're holding the ball as the clock expires.  Bruce has a suggestion for rookies that get bogus turnovers hung on them, but Ross does not think will end well if they ever tried it. 54:13 Bye Bye TRT 54:35       Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
