As a pair that didn't really engage in conversation until 2015, the audience gets to learn along with the host who Ernest Bailey is, what made him who he was, and what can come from a father/son dynamic after trying to build that bond into adulthood. Shoutout to all the fathers out there!…

Christmas Day is going to be the first tell of whether the Lakers can hold their own against a contender as constructed or will we need to see some cards shuffled?…
