Locked On NBA – Daily Podcast On The National Basketball Association Is LeBron Starting a RIVAL NBA? | Western Conference Tiers REVEALED | Is Anthony Edwards a Top 5 Player?
It's time to create the official tiers for a loaded Western Conference, and the disagreements start right at the top. Are the Los Angeles Lakers "sub-contenders" with LeBron James still at the helm, or are they merely "pretenders" in a conference packed with 50-win teams? The debate also covers the ceiling for the Golden State Warriors, with one host arguing they belong in a tier called "we believe we should not believe" due to their age and lack of depth. Plus, after two straight trips to the Conference Finals, have the Minnesota Timberwolves finally earned a spot in the top contender tier?

Then, the discussion turns to one of the biggest stories of the summer: a new international basketball league reportedly being spearheaded by LeBron James. Is this a legitimate, LIV Golf-style threat that could disrupt the NBA's global dominance, or just another offseason rumor? Matt and Haize analyze the potential impact on player empowerment and the league's "middle class" of talent.
Finally, is Anthony Edwards a top-five player in the NBA right now? A Locked On Wolves host says yes, but the guys push back, breaking down what Ant-Man still needs to do to "shape the game" like a true superstar.
