Great discussion guys. My bad for abruptly bailing out. Had a friend working a call who had an important question.
Wanted to pass my condolences to the Olson, Robinson and Boseman families. May they all have a safe journey to R.I.P.
Yes. : (
Great wrap up guys, sorry I couldn’t make it on.
This was a fascinating podcast that covered a lot of ground. Join Gerald, Rafael, Sean, and I to talk Lakers and basketball.
The discussion about where do the Blazers go was interesting. Rafael, as a Blazers fan, obviously wants to keep Dame and CJ but understands the dilemma Portland faces trying to get better in a Western Conference that’s going to be dominated by the Lakers, Clippers, and Warriors going forward. There’s some great conversation about whether trading Dame or CJ could be their only route to get out of the deathly middle area they’re in where they’re not bad enough to get a lottery pick or good enough to get past the first rond.
Then we get into a great conversation about what the Lakers should do to deal with the small ball crazy Rockets. How to stop Harden, how to shoot enough threes to have a chance, how to handle Westbrook. I drop the idea of a 2-3 zone where the guards on top double Harden or sag on Westbrook, AD protects the rim in the middle, and the forwards make sure the Rockets don’t get any open corner threes. Watch Gerald go crazy.
We cap off the night talking about the other series and the three deaths that happened this week and what a crazy year 2020 is turning out to be. Give us a listen. I think you’ll enjoy it. Then comment below what yo think. Thanks.
