For one of several questions to ponder about the NBA’s 2023 postseason, the hosts of the eponymous CLNS Media “Cedric Maxwell” podcast linked up with Andscape’s Marc Spears to talk about the Western Conference semifinals matchups, including LeBron James and the Lakers’ impressive run, and how far can they go in these playoffs.
