Dame is back with the Blazers (1:25). Rob and Zach discuss how it happened, how he fits with this team, and the romanticism of it all. There’s yet another reunion with Chris Paul in L.A. (26:27)—a look back at his career and a look forward at this year’s Clippers squad. Across town, the Lakers also make a move and sign Marcus Smart (39:03). How do Rob and Zach think he’ll fit in purple and gold? Then, Zach addresses the Cam Thomas criticism and discourse (52:53), before taking a deep dive on the Memphis Grizzlies (1:01:09) to close out the show.
