The Celtics face their first loss of the season against the Pacers, who clinched the victory in overtime with a clutch game-winning three from Pascal Siakam. With Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown looking to bounce back against the Hornets, can they reclaim their momentum while facing the dynamic play of LaMelo Ball?

The hosts spark a discussion on the scariest teams in the league—surprisingly, the Pistons make the list alongside the Celtics and the Thunder! Who would have thought the Pistons would be considered scary this season? The duo also plays "Wicked or Kick It," where they judge NBA outfits from stars like Jaylen Brown, Kelly Oubre, Gradey Dick, and Scottie Barnes—will these styles be deemed wicked or kicked to the curb?

In a quick segment, they highlight their must-watch NBA League Pass games for the weekend, with Ountae picking the Trail Blazers at the Suns and the Magic at the Mavericks, while Travis opts for the Magic facing the Cavaliers.

Finally, they host a draft of the scariest NBA players of all time, assembling their ultimate 5v5 teams plus a coach.
