GrantHOST
they'll carry scoreline, 8-point win over Newcastle, sorry.
GrantHOST
But if you're a London Lions fan, after seeing the pre-season they've been in, where they took down some pretty big wins, what do you put down the reasoning to be? And what's your kind of summary of the Lions for the weekend, Mitch?
MitchHOST
I think it's almost a reality check in some ways.
MitchHOST
They're playing at EuroLeague level in the pre-season.
Joel OsborneHOST
But the season starts this Friday.
Joel OsborneHOST
The basketball season is back, and of course London Lions are coming to Bristol for the opening game of the SLB season.
Joel OsborneHOST
The official curtain raiser.
Joel OsborneHOST
We are the only game taking place on
Joel OsborneHOST
He has joined London
Sam HardyHOST
Lions.
Sam HardyHOST
He's joined London Lions as CEO, so congratulations to him.
Sam HardyHOST
It's a good move.
LouisHOST
I mean, I feel like they're, they're gonna be challenging at the top, kind of plain and simple.
LouisHOST
Like not London probably, but they're gonna be, you know, one of the top non- non-London teams.
LouisHOST
I think there's not even much doubt, honestly.
LouisHOST
You know, I, I think they're really impressive, so.

GrantHOST
All right, let's talk, let's go London.
GrantHOST
We've got two teams to go.
GrantHOST
Let's talk the London Lions.
GrantHOST
Obviously- A star cast squad.
JoeHOST
You touched on it just a second ago.
JoeHOST
It's all about the London Lions.
JoeHOST
And will the London Lions have a dominant start to their domestic season? And in the next two weeks, they are absolutely stacked.
JoeHOST
So they're going to play four games in the next two weeks.
JoeHOST
bristol newcastle cheshire and liverpool and just for context they're going to play four games in the same time span that sheffield is just going to play one so they are really like front loading that sort of front part of that season and it makes sense because they've got euro cups down the line as well but the question is really simple is is are they going to come off to a dominant start and you touched it there brilliant roster expensive roster do you think they're going to dominate
JoeHOST
Do you see Keenan Evans' salary? Did you see this?
NathanHOST
No, I haven't seen his salary.
JoeHOST
So there was an Italian outlet that reported that Keenan Evans is going to make €400,000 this season and London Lions are fitting the bill.
Bobby TrossetHOST
Let's expand the NFL.
Sarah EllisonHOST
I was gonna say the London Lions, but we already have Lions.
Bobby TrossetHOST
The London Lions.
Sarah EllisonHOST
We'll have to figure something else.
Bobby TrossetHOST
Unreal.
George ZielinskiHOST
Villa are a bit low on confidence probably compared to where we normally would be.
George ZielinskiHOST
I think it was a really good sign and a good reminder of my mate from the London Lions, Gav.
George ZielinskiHOST
I'll never forget what he said to me after we beat West Ham 2-1 away on the first day of the season two years ago.
George ZielinskiHOST
when he walked out of the stadium together and he said, you forget how good we are.
Lewis ScottGUEST
And it's quite interesting to see like compared to your team, what other people are doing.
Lewis ScottGUEST
And then you see kind of like, for example, Copperbox, London Lions, they have like a huge set up going over there where they have teams.
Lewis ScottGUEST
or the lights or the pre-game interviews, the build-ups and all there.
Lewis ScottGUEST
And you don't always see as big a spectacle at the other stadiums.

Lewis ScottGUEST
National Treasure won, obviously, a silver medal at the Commonwealth Games.
Lewis ScottGUEST
And just her experience as well.
Lewis ScottGUEST
I mean, played for the London Lions when, obviously, David was dominating as well.
Lewis ScottGUEST
Last season as well, I think she was probably their standout player.
GrantHOST
[upbeat music] Hello, welcome to the very next SLB Roster Breakdown.
GrantHOST
This one is gonna focus on the London Lions.
GrantHOST
Thank you to all those that have got involved in the conversation so far.
GrantHOST
Thank you for getting, engaging with our interview with Ben Thomas and the roster breakdown videos of Cheshire Phoenix and Manchester Basketball.
GrantHOST
And yeah, we'll start off with London.
GrantHOST
And Louis, this team very much looks like they're leveled up compared to definitely...
GrantHOST
Well, compared to two years ago, definitely compared to last year, and very much feels like, uh, the Zalg- the Zalgiris-controlled London Lions are really trying to level up to get into that EuroLeague spot.
LouisHOST
Yeah.
WillHOST
[gentle music] We are fortunate to have a pair of guests on this episode.
WillHOST
George Vaz and Liam Jefferson have both had turns on the show, but for the first time we have the former London Lions coaches together.
WillHOST
Although they have appeared on other podcasts, but, uh, first time on the Idaho Basketball Coaching Podcast.
WillHOST
This episode's topic revolves around incorporating multiple coverage solutions in player training.
5 MINS LATER
George VazGUEST
great.I, uh, so I'm curious, it's like at the ca- so at the clinics, uh, you know, tried to go two on two, maybe two on one depending on skill level to really teach the coverage solutions.
George VazGUEST
But I always find that it's sometimes they don't get it, sometimes they do, sometimes you can add complexity to it.
George VazGUEST
But I remember once at London Lions we did one, like it was like, um, one on two plus one.
George VazGUEST
So it's like they come off the screen and the defender gives them the decision, and that's where they can learn more complex coverage solutions like split, curl over, maybe even shoot.
Tim WoodsonHOST
Does that change your evaluation of him at all? Are you looking at him at all this upcoming season?
Steve AlexanderHOST
I'm trying to, but when I go to a certain website that I often frequent, one of the NBA teams listed under the depth charts is the London Lions.
Steve AlexanderHOST
And they're, the Denver Nuggets are not even an option.
Steve AlexanderHOST
So I don't know what's-
