Gilbert Arenas talks his career and Lakers’ reliance on LeBron James

Logan and Raja are joined by three-time NBA All-Stars and co-hosts no chill Podcaster Gilbert Arenas discusses what it’s like to play against Raja and the constant push and pull between primary defender and elite scorer (1:41). Next, they discuss how Arenas went from young scorer to NBA superstar, what it took to make that transition, and how star empowerment has changed over the years (12:54). Along the way, the guys talk about what Jordan Poole needs to do if he wants to successfully lead the Washington Wizards and how that compares to Arenas’ time with the team (38:20). Later, they react to the early ups and downs of the Los Angeles Lakers and explain why still relying on LeBron James at this stage of his career is unsustainable (45:45).
