Lakers Lounge

Hi Anthony. Love the show, I always listen to it on my way to work. You were proven correct about Inside the NBA always trashing the players and product. What are your thoughts on Barkley proving yours and JJ’s point during his rant? What is the outlook for future NBA media and coverage?

.New CBA is a blessing in disguise as it limits teams ability to charge a Lakers tax! Go figure.

UPDATE !!! DONT PANIC , this is the long time listener that had the name always popping up as a bunch of emojis this is not a drill , apple did some sort of update where the option to change it is literally right under the comment section. We’re so back But in all seriousness, considering everything you’ve already mentioned on why they should upgrade the roster why are they so scared of using the picks if they can just trade our top talent (minus LeBron for obvious reasons) like let’s say you go all in and it doesn’t work , is the thought process of you’ll be able to trade at least 3-4 players for draft capital to recoup those future picks and do their idea of a rebuild not even crossing the front office’s mind ?

Hi Anthony love the show with you and Raj and Harrison. Reason # 1,000 to fire Rob-so Aaron can come back. Writing this after catching your recap of the December Detroit game. I think your recap was a little off. Detroit punked the Lakers. It wasn’t a lack of effort, or a flawed scheme, they just outmuscled the team, which reinforces the need to improve the roster, including adding a goon. Man, Paul Reed really doesn’t respect AD (remember the quotes from last year?). While it potentially led to the loss, I did like AD finally pushing Reed to the floor. They really do need a Reed, Nesmith, Stewart, or Vando to stir things up. Any other larger or more athletic players that could potentially fill their needs and won’t cost top picks?
