On Part 2 of the eighth episode of the Hot Hand Theory Podcast, XJ and Geoff discuss the Jazz, Suns, Clippers, and Lakers. The two talk about how a player like Lauri Markkanen is able to always have an additive effect on his team and would allow star or superstar-level teammates to be their best selves without compromising his own impact. They also talk about how good Jusuf Nurkic has been despite flying under the radar this season. In the last segment of the pod, the duo put into context and reflect on just how unprecedented it is what LeBron James is doing this year.
