Lakers Lounge

PART ONE: Anthony goes name by name to explain the Lakers' options and how likely each target might be.

PART TWO: Anthony wraps up the Lakers' options but does remind listeners that the Lakers are fairly confident Christian Koloko is good enough to get them through this injury patch. He also previews the game against San Antonio, which he feels fairly confident about.

FULL: Anthony and Raj break down a fun win against Memphis that featured a third straight triple-double for LeBron James, Dalton Knecht's coming out party, and the fewest minutes D'Angelo Russell has played as a Laker.

PART ONE: Anthony and Raj discuss D'Angelo Russell's role, Gabe Vincent's continued lack of production, and how it all might lead to a real opportunity for Dalton Knecht -- especially if he continues playing the way he did last night.

PART TWO: It's easy to fall into the same talking points with LeBron James when he does stuff like he did last night, so the guys instead focus on the things that are allowing him to take over when he has.

FULL EP.: Anthony welcomes one of his absolute favorites back to talk about the state of the NBA in Los Angeles, as both the Clippers and Lakers approach the tail end of their respective eras (LeBron as a Laker, Kawhi as a Clipper).

PART ONE: Anthony and Mirjam Swanson (SCNG) discuss the state of the Lakers and Clippers now, and how things look for both franchises moving forward.

PART TWO: Anthony and Mirjam spent time talking about all the other potential factors in which franchise well better position themselves after their respective stars depart and all they can keep coming back to is how crucial it is to win, and win often.

FULL EPISODE: Anthony explains how the Lakers arrived at D'Angelo Russell moving to the bench and the response within the locker room so far. He also had some leftover questions from the weekend he dives into.

PART ONE: Anthony has been talking about moving D'Angelo Russell to the bench for a while. Now that it's finally happened, he explains when that process started and how JJ Redick has executed the plan.

PART TWO: Anthony opens up the discord mailbag, where listeners want to know about Thanksgiving food and the Lakers' injury situations.

FULL: Anthony recaps a nice, successful weekend that featured the change he'd been teasing for a month or so. D'Angelo Russell's sixth man of the year case starts now. Anthony breaks down the win against Toronto, Anthony Davis' eye injury, and LeBron James' mastery of the game. He also takes a few questions to wrap things up.

PART ONE: The Lakers beat the Raptors but Jakob Poeltl took it upon himself to wreck the faces of the franchise.

PART TWO: Anthony takes questions from the live audience and iTunes reviews, and one comparison of Rob Pelinka worked out a little too perfectly.

FULL: Anthony and Raj offer up some cool news, then return to the Lakers, where things don't seem great.

PART TWO: The conversation about D'Angelo Russell is already pretty ugly but appears to be getting worse by the game.

PART ONE: Raj is now also on the ClutchPoints team. The guys talk about that, then about Anthony Davis' foot.

FULL: The Lakers can't possibly hope Anthony Davis and LeBron James never miss time to merely make the play-in.

PART ONE: Anthony isn't thrilled about the Lakers team fans have to watch if any of their starters miss any time whatsoever.

PART TWO: Anthony wonders whether teams are going to start taking advantage of the unfortunate combination of a good scouting team but bad development program.

FULL: Anthony and Harrison wonder whether it's time to panic about the Lakers or whether it's time to accept that this is just what a .500 team looks like.

PART ONE: Is it time to panic? Or is this just who the Lakers are -- a mostly mediocre team who needed everything to go right to significantly improve compared to last year?

PART TWO: Anthony and Harrison go name by name to figure out how many NBA players this roster actually has, let alone how many net-positive guys it has.

FULL EP.: Anthony and Raj recap the first outright bad loss of the season. The depth concern keep getting worse and worse.
