Logan and Raja share their thoughts on this year’s All-Star Weekend, the frustrating lack of effort from players, and whether it can be salvaged in the future (3:15). Next, they discuss the lackluster start to Doc Rivers’s tenure with the Milwaukee Bucks and how listening to stars on coaching decisions can be a slippery slope for a front office (14:08). Later, the guys pose some questions that could define the back half of the season, including what to do with the Celtics if they don’t win this year, whether the Timberwolves are ready to become a serious title contender, and more (34:36). Finally, the guys close with their Real Ones of the Week (47:17).
