It can be annoying constantly hearing about the Knicks and Lakers, so we decided to talk about them for an entire episode! (It sounds backwards, I know). Peter and Duncan discuss how Anthony Davis is keeping the Lakers afloat (17:31), before discussing the infirmary Clippers (30:08), the "definition of mid" Knicks (38:28), and the suddenly frisky Brooklyn Nets (47:50). And as always, they start the show by firing off takes with a Full-Court Press (2:28).

To ring in the Halloween and NBA seasons, Peter and Daniel take a look at teams not living up to expectations, and if their starts could go on to haunt the rest of their seasons (1:19). The haunts continue when they go through the scariest three-man combos in the league so far (27:05), before wrapping the show with last week's poll and a look ahead.

Editor's note: I don't know what happened with Peter's microphone, but it should be remedied by next episode!
