"It's funny. I saw some clips of Lebron training with his two sons a few weeks ago and his sons were training with an NBA ball and Lebron was training with a FIBA ball. Just trying to get used to the feel of it and the leather pattern and everything. It makes a big difference."
- Lawrence Dushenski
Navin sat down with Lawrence Dushenski, a basketball coach and owner of the YEG Hoops social media accounts. They talked all things basketball, from the Olympic exhibition matches to NBA trades.
They started by talking a bit about the sweltering weather in Edmonton these past few days (:30) but quickly moved on to talking about the Canada vs. USA exhibition match that happened on July 10 (1:40). After a recap and discussion on that, they moved on to talking about Olympic Basketball (5:19) including the differences between the NBA and FIBA (8:40) and the likelihood of Canada's team going far (10:00). Lawrence was dubbed an honourary "Basketball Co-host" (13:45) before they moved on to talking about changing Olympic rosters in the face of injuries (14:10). They then chat a bit more about Olympic basketball (15:03) and who they'd have as their starting five (19:13). After coming back from a break, they have a short aside about desserts and food (28:55) before moving on to NBA Trades (31:42). The episode ends off with a discussion about how much Brony James is going to play in the coming season (44:25).
