48 Minutes with ESPN Radio's Kevin Winter

0:00 ... Ross hello and welcome ... introduces tonight's panelists

0:44... Episode #148 dedicated to the Houston Rockets, who average 48 rebounds a game

0:56 ... Bet OnLine Live commercial read

1:31 .. Bruce introduces special guest Kevin Winter, the veteran ESPN Radio personality

2:35 ... We start out with a robust discussion of the Cleveland Cavaliers and whether they've "Got It." Kevin sees the Cavs as a team that has excelled because of the emergence of Evan Mobley. But Kevin sees the eastern conference as a "two horse" race with the Cavs and Celtics.

5:17 ... World B makes an excellent point about the lack of efficiency by the Celtics' starting lineup. Kevin feels like the C's learned how to win last year, and may have handled the target on their backs well enough to flip the switch in the postseason.

7:49 ... What about the OKC Thunder ... do they look like a championship team? Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (SGA) has become someone almost impossible to stop.

9:50 ... Bruce felt OKC's lack of rebounding heading into the season was a problem they have fixed. Kevin feels like the Thunder's defense swarms opponents extremely effectively and they have learned from last year's premature playoff exit.

12:46 ... World B tees up a discussion on whether SGA is a "foul baiter" and Kevin says he is not. Everyone agreed that SGA is crafty not phony.

16:39 ... The NBA is investigating the Thunder for resting their starters in a home game against Portland, but does OKC deserve any punishment?

19:32 ... The top three teams: OKC, Boston, and Cleveland appear to be the class of the NBA. But what are the concerns for each team moving forward? Health is an issue for all three teams but OKC's youth is also an issue. Boston has no clue how to stop Donovan Mitchell.

26:43 ... The crew discusses which team was the biggest disappointment this season. Philly tops the list. Bruce has a fun fact about how much Paul George made "per game" during his injury plagued season.

29:26 ... Luke Doncic and LeBron James have done a great job developing chemistry, but can the Lakers actually compete for the western conference championship if and when LeBron returns to good health?

34:54 ... JJ Redick has done a great job coaching the Lakers and has made some great strategic moves this season.

35:58 ... Has Jimmy Butler made the Warriors a team that could make the conference finals or even win the west? Butler is hungry and would love to have a crack at guarding some of the OKC wings.

39:43 ... Ross likes the Memphis Grizzlies and feels that they have successfully overcome a lot of injuries and are a complete team. Kevin feels that the Grizz could make a run in the west.

42:18 ... Bruce worries that Dallas is rushing Anthony Davis back too soon and are trying to save a season that is already lost. He's going to the G-League to continue his rehab but shutting him down seems like a much smarter idea.

45:23 ... Who does Kevin feel will meet in the NBA Finals?

47:10 ... Cooper Flagg is the projected overall #1 pick, so which of the struggling teams would be the best fit for him.

50:27 ... We can't do a show after Selection Sunday without briefly discussing March Madness. Since Kevin, Bruce, and World B don't have teams in the NCAA Tournament, we all discuss which team we'd root for since our favorite college teams aren't involved (except for Ross's Marquette squad).

54:29 ... Ross wraps it up, thanks Kevin and says goodbye until next time.

Weekend Preview from 48 Minutes: Lakers/Celtics, Warriors/Cavs, and Magic/Knicks

Weekend Preview from 48 Minutes: Lakers/Celtics, Warriors/Cavs, and Magic/Knicks

0:00 .... Show open .... Ross introduces the panel and jumps into the weekend preview. 0:47 ... Friday night it's the Lakers visiting the Celtics in Boston.  It's the second half of a "back to back" for the Lakers who play in Toronto on Thursday so fatigue may be a factor for LA. 4:52 ... On Saturday, the Warriors visit the Cavaliers and it features the NBA's two most prolific three point shooters in Steph Curry and Donovan Mitchell.   Both teams could really use a win. 8:19 ... Sunday features the third and final regular season matchup between the Magic and the Knicks.  Orlando took the first two, so the Knicks need to show they can beat this team or else it may haunt them the rest of the season. 12:12 ... It's "Holiday Season" and while Christmas and New Year's Day are on everyone's minds, the 48 Minutes crew thinks Holiday season revolves around the NBA's Holiday Brothers: Jrue, Aaron, and Justin.  We share some fun facts about the first family of the NBA. 17:22 ...

Thunder and Lakers on Fire plus teams we're keeping an eye on

Thunder and Lakers on Fire plus teams we're keeping an eye on

0:00 ... Show open ... Ross introduces the panel and dedicates show #203 to Amare' Stoudemire, who was Rookie of the Year in 2003 for the Phoenix Suns. 1:04 ... The Oklahoma City Thunder are on a historically torrid pace with 20 wins in their first 21 games.  World B has some great numbers on their incredible defense.  They will be without top rebounder Isaiah Hartenstein for a couple of weeks so Chet Holmgren will need to grab some more rebounds.  The crew speculates on how long it will take for them to lose another game. 10:04 .... The Lakers are also very hot and have the third best record in the league.  Luka Doncic is now the main man in LA with aging LeBron James as his wingman, but can LeBron accept a supporting role?  And will his ego cause him to play more games than he should?  He needs to be fresh for the playoffs, but if he decides he HAS to play 65 games for personal reasons that could be an issue. 16:27 ... Austin Reaves has been spectacular to start the season, but when LeBron was not playing, he needed to step up and he did.  But with LeBron back on the floor, Reaves' numbers may suffer but not to the detriment of the team. 19:30 ... The guys each pick a western conference team they're keeping their eyes on.  Bruce picks the Spurs, World B picks the Suns, and Ross chooses the Clippers. 26:44 ... We move to the eastern conference where the Cleveland Cavaliers have struggled recently.  As talented as they are, they really miss Jarrett Allen and if he is out for a long time, the Cavs have a big problem.  Allen is not the only key player that is injured and it really has shown up in their shooting numbers. 32:57 ... The Orlando Magic have been without injured Paolo Banchero for three weeks but have continues to play well and win.  Desmond Bane has really stepped up in Paolo's absence and scored 24 points a game during the month of November.  And no team plays harder.  They still have a chance to get to 50 wins, which they have not done since the 2010-'11 season. 37:42 ... The guys each pick a eastern conference team they're keeping their eyes on.  Bruce picks the Celtics, World B picks the Hawks, and Ross chooses the Pacers 43:56 ... Ross wraps it up and says goodbye.
