Steve Nash's continued tenure as moderator for LeBron James' NBA-themed talk show under question
LeBron's Podcast Shakeup: Nash Heads to Amazon, Lakers Face Elimination
The latest episode of "Mind The Game," LeBron James' hit podcast, has introduced some turmoil. Steve Nash, who stepped in as co-host following JJ Redick's departure to coach James' Los Angeles Lakers, is reportedly joining Amazon Prime's NBA studio team. This move could spell uncertain times for the podcast.
As per NBA insider Marc Stein, Nash will be teaming up with Taylor Rooks, Dirk Nowitzki, and Blake Griffin on Amazon's NBA coverage starting next season. The decision brings Nash back together with his former Dallas Mavericks teammate, Dirk Nowitzki.
With the podcast's future up in the air, LeBron's main focus seems to lie elsewhere — his Lakers are currently at risk of elimination, trailing 3-1 against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Despite James' impressive play in three out of the four games, the Lakers have struggled to match their opponents' pace, particularly with Anthony Edwards. Some questionable lineup choices by Redick have also added to their troubles.
The possibility of Nash's departure from the podcast isn't far-fetched; his prowess in coaching is undeniable, having led the Brooklyn Nets when they boasted James Harden, Kevin Durant, and Kyrie Irving.
At present, there's no confirmation that Nash has left "Mind The Game." The podcast continues to churn out new episodes weekly, with recent discussions focusing on playoff strategies and game analyses.
Meanwhile, the podcast's future seems unclear as Nash embarks on his new venture. Only time will tell what LeBron chooses to do next with the show. In the meantime, check out the latest episodes of "Mind The Game" on Wondery+, Amazon Music, Prime Video, and other platforms.
