Gil's Arena Breaks Down NBA Tip-Off With Dwight Howard as the NBA & Dancing With The Stars Legend returns to Gil's Arena to celebrate the start of the NBA Season alongside Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew. They open up the show by reacting to the Los Angeles Lakers opening game win over the Minnesota Timberwolves where Anthony Davis showed he may finally be ready to take the keys from LeBron James as the team's #1 option and JJ Redick shined in his debut as an NBA head coach. They also react to the viral moment when LeBron & Bronny James took the court together as the NBA's first father-son duo before analyzing the new look Timberwolves with Anthony Edwards, Julius Randle and the newly extended Rudy Gobert. Next, they move over to the Eastern Conference where the reigning champion Boston Celtics started right where they left off and bludgeoned the New York Knicks. Gil & The Crew analyze Jayson Tatum's monster game and debate if the NBA inspired him to find a new gear after his disrespectful summer before discussing if this disappointing start for the new look Knicks was an early season outlier or a sign of things to come.
