    Zone 1 of WTZ Podcast, host Noah Buono dives in the role reversal of LeBron having a great supporting cast that's helping increase this Laker team's postseason success and Curry all of a sudden not having as great of a supporting cast as we're used to seeing.

    Noah also dives into LeBron's foot problem, Lakers closing this series out in 5, how he has been on the Philly train all year, Steve Kerr and Darvin Ham's chess match on the Warriors offensive strategies vs. the Lakers defensive strategies to limit Curry and why Jordan Poole's Game 1 shot was actually a better shot than Steph Curry's Game 4 shot.
