The NBA has mercifully entered a nice long All Star Weekend, and it honestly couldn’t have come at a better time for the Los Angeles Lakers specifically. Anthony Davis is going to miss at least four weeks, LeBron James is going to have to put his already worn down body through more time at center, and frankly, fans just need a break. It’s been a long year.
To set the scene for that extended vacation, Aaron and used this week’s episode of “The Hook” to look back on the season that’s been to this point in order to argue that while Davis’ injury is certainly a bummer and we both obviously hope for a quick and full recovery, the more you think about it, this next month without him likely isn’t changing much in terms of the direction this season was heading.
