Lakers Get 113-100 Win Over Sacramento Kings, JJ Redick Calls it His "Favorite" of the Season. 36:10

1d ago36:10

36:10

On the show, we talk a lot about the level Anthony Davis has to play at for the Lakers to have a good chance to win. Thursday in Sacramento, Davis met that standard, and then some. 21 points, 18 rebounds, four assists, three steals, six blocked shots. As JJ Redick noted after the game, Davis was able to dominate the game without actually being effi…

The modern NBA schedule, where the league tries to limit back-to-backs and excessive travel, has some quirks. Among them? The home-and-home, or in the case of consecutive games between the Lakers and Kings, the road-and-road. The Lakers play Sacramento twice, both times up north, first tonight and then Saturday afternoon. The Kings, lIke the Lakers…

The Lakers may have steadied the ship a little over their last three games, winning two and putting a decent defensive performance on the board in the third. But they're still a group that obviously needs improvement if they're going to contend in a crowded Western Conference. Making trades, though, is no easy feat for this team, for a variety of r…

BONUS POD: Darvin Ham Sharply Criticizes the Lakers for Firing Him During ESPN Interview. 18:08

18:08

When Darvin Ham was fired after last season—something most of us saw coming—we didn't hear much from the man himself. It's not surprising. Ripping the team that let you go is not a great way to set yourself up for the next job. On the show, we guessed (again, no big leap) that Ham felt he was treated unfairly, and was being scapegoated for issues t…

Who Should the Lakers Target (Finney-Smith? Johnson? Turner? Murray? Valanciunas?) as Trade Season Begins? 33:38

33:38

December 15 is generally seen as the start of NBA Trade Season, because so many players become trade-eligible at that point. And over the weekend, a couple of trades—including one sending former Laker Dennis Schröder to Golden State—got the ball rolling. Schröder was a name at least some Lakers fans had their eye on, but the Nets not only got a cou…

The Memphis Grizzlies have been a very good team this season, and have been flat-out excellent over the last month or so—one of the best teams in the NBA both offensively and defensively. So for the Lakers, who have not exactly set the world on fire over their last 11 games, a visit from Memphis to the Crypt represented a major test. And while it w…

Give the Lakers credit. They played hard Friday in Minnesota, and particularly in the second half, they played defense.

December 15 is a huge date in the NBA. That's when a big chunk of the league, including players who signed free agent deals last summer, becomes trade eligible. (85 players, according to ESPN.) It's hard to know what the market will look like. Summer, for example, was a lot slower than many free agent periods, thanks to the new rules in the CBA tha…

One of the interesting perks of the new NBA Cup tournament is the impact it has on the schedule. Because the league needs to leave space for games that are impossible to slate before the seasons starts, there's about a 10-day stretch or so that provides a lot more off-days than is typical in the regular season. For the Lakers, it means no games unt…

It took a minute for the Lakers to get going, but once they did, Sunday's game at home against the Portland TrailBlazers looked a lot more like fans expected it would, even with LeBron James (foot) joining Austin Reaves and the rest of the limpy Lakers in street clothes.

On the one hand, the Lakers definitely played a better game Friday in Atlanta. They got some buckets, showed some energy and generally speaking put in a professional effort.

The Lakers have some serious problems right now. LeBron James, rather uncharacteristically, is one of them. His play over the last 10 days or so has not been good. Not in a "by LeBron James standards" kind of way, either. The shot has been off, the turnovers are up, the defense has been... lacking. But to this point, at least, LeBron's health hasn'…
