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?

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.

From 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 list
