Lakers Lounge

Anthony and Raj eventually are going to get to the game, but first, Anthony tells Raj how proud he is for taking ownership of his content, as un-condescendingly as he could. Then, well, yeah, that game happened.

The Lakers have a fun collection of prospects and, if the organization is going to come close to its ceiling, they're going to have to get the most out of their youth.

The Lakers have played one preseason game without Austin Reaves and Walker Kessler, but with Luka Doncic. They played the second without... well, almost everyone. Anthony and Raj take a look at the preseason schedule and try to find if and when we'll see something closer to a full rotation -- and why it matters that we do.

After months and months of theorizing about this Lakers roster, we finally got to see it in actuality. Anthony loved what he saw and explains why. He uses this game (disclaimers about the Kangz notwithstanding) to forecast the style of basketball JJ Redick envisions for the Lakers, how he plans to use the wings and the role youth is going to play. He wraps with a quick Q&A.

The Lakers beat the crap out of the Kings. Yeah, the Kings are going to suck, but the Lakers approached this game a lot more seriously than in years past. There's value in noting that.
