On this episode of Locked On NBA, the panel settles the score in the Eastern Conference by creating their official tiers of greatness. The debate kicks off immediately with the Orlando Magic: is their championship-caliber defense and the expected leap from Paolo Banchero enough to make them a true contender, or is their historically bad offense an anchor that will keep them in the sub-contender tier? The discussion also covers who has a higher ceiling: the star-studded but injury-prone Philadelphia 76ers or a Milwaukee Bucks team leaning heavily on Giannis Antetokounmpo.Full tier list: https://docs.google.com/document/d/10OZW7jD1o5NEpSns0uXMft6y5F0yYNtrA_MX396iCPs/edit?usp=sharingFrom there, the show dives into the latest league news, starting with Jonathan Kuminga once again declining the Warriors' contract offer. The panel analyzes the sticking points in the two-year, $45 million deal—a team option and a no-trade clause—and discusses whether Kuminga is right to hold out for a better situation.Plus, Daryl Morey is making headlines again, stating that everyone in the league privately agrees the Lakers' 2020 bubble championship deserves an asterisk. The hosts debate if he's right, or if it was a legitimate title won under the toughest mental circumstances imaginable. Finally, the episode wraps with a reaction to the Locked On Thunder hosts campaigning for seven of their players to be included in the network's upcoming Top 100 listFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONBA?sid=YouTubeLocked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAFind a Daily Locked On NBA Podcast covering your favorite team:📲 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAFollow the Locked On Podcast NetworkTwitter 📲 https://twitter.com/LockedOnNetworkTikTok 📲 https://www.tiktok.com/@lockedonsportsSubscribe to the Locked On NBA YouTube Channel: Locked On NBAFollow/Subscribe/Listen Anywhere: linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

Today, we're tackling the most polarizing summer conversations in the league, starting with the intense discourse around Joel Embiid. Following a revealing ESPN profile, we debate the viral takes: is Embiid "soft," or is he a warrior whose body has failed him? Our panel breaks down the criticism, with one host arguing that the real issue isn't toughness, but that Embiid is a "frontrunner" who has yet to respond when facing true basketball adversity.Then, we continue the conversation that has the NBA world buzzing: "Luka 2.0." After a Men's Health article showcased a newly slimmed-down Luka Doncic, some are questioning the motivation and sustainability of his transformation. Is this real, lasting change, or just a temporary "post-breakup workout" in response to being traded by the Mavericks? We also examine the Pelicans' risky offseason and how their entire plan hinges on Zion Williamson finally making a similar commitment to his conditioning.Finally, we look ahead and identify the offseason moves—and non-moves—that teams will be kicking themselves for. Did the Mavericks make a massive mistake by choosing D'Angelo Russell over Chris Paul? Should the Bulls regret holding onto Nikola Vucevic? We break down the deals that are destined for regret in a packed show you won't want to miss.Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LONBA?sid=YouTubeLocked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAFind a Daily Locked On NBA Podcast covering your favorite team:📲 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAFollow the Locked On Podcast NetworkTwitter 📲 https://twitter.com/LockedOnNetworkTikTok 📲 https://www.tiktok.com/@lockedonsportsSubscribe to the Locked On NBA YouTube Channel: Locked On NBAFollow/Subscribe/Listen Anywhere: linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAYour favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

More importantly, will losing weight impact the strength-based style that makes him so dominant?Full article: https://www.menshealth.com/fitness/a65488151/luka-doncic-body-transformation/While Luka is making changes, the Los Angeles Lakers are standing pat, and it's drawing criticism.
