About this episode
First Take begins with the box office smashing Hollywood Lakers. LeBron's newfound defensive prowess and Luka's paint dominance earned them a sixth straight win! Are they in the same tier as the Spurs and Thunder in the West? (0:00) Then, Perk is taking a stand for Darius Acuff Jr.! Would you rather have him or A.J. Dybansta for the NCAA tournament? (26:20) Next, is Jayson Tatum's return hurting Jaylen Brown's MVP case, or are Brown's tour date-esque nightly shooting numbers doing enough on their own? (40:00)
