On this week’s Crossover Pod, Howard Beck talks to the Washington Post's Michael Lee about the 76ers' strong start, their victory over the Lakers and their championship hopes. With the season at the one-quarter mark, who's the stronger MVP candidate: Joel Embiid or LeBron James? Beck and Lee also reflect on the one-year anniversary of Kobe Bryant's death, and his enduring influence in today's NBA. Finally, the two discuss the passing of their friend Sekou Smith, the widely respected and universally popular NBATV reporter, who died this week of Covid-19.
