  • Lakers Players Want Energy From Lakers Fans. Plus, Can the Lakers Exploit Rudy Gobert?

    Lakers Players Want Energy From Lakers Fans. Plus, Can the Lakers Exploit Rudy Gobert?
    Apr 18 2025
    At practice Thursday in El Segundo, Dorian Finney-Smith made it very clear that the Lakers as a team are looking forward to opening the playoffs on their home floor, and absorbing the energy the crowd can bring. Because make no mistake, Lakers fans are hyped for this, and the Lakers as a team worked very, very hard to earn home court advantage. Hopefully the Lakers won't need it, but it's great to know the boost provided by a home crowd in the postseason is in their back pocket for four games. Meanwhile, one of the most intriguing storylines of the series deals with Rudy Gobert. Thursday in El Segundo, Jaxson Hayes noted that while Gobert is his matchup, the Stifle Tower is not necessarily his focus. One big reason? Because the Wolves don't operate their offense with Gobert in a featured role. (Though if they'd like to try, I'm sure the Lakers would be ok with it.) That said, Gobert can still be incredibly disruptive, especially as a defender and a rebounder. Minnesota is expected to make a hard push on the offensive glass. So can the Lakers control his impact, and even force the Wolves into some tough decisions? The Lakers might prefer to play Hayes less and force the Wolves to match up with their small(ish) lineups. Finally, is Austin Reaves too good to be an X-Factor? HOSTS: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT 1: Fans, get hyped! The Lakers need you.SEGMENT 2: LA vs. Rudy. SEGMENT 3: Austin Reaves... x-factor?

  • Lakers, Rob Pelinka Agree to Extension (That's More than Just a "Luka Dončić" Reward).

    Lakers, Rob Pelinka Agree to Extension (That's More than Just a "Luka Dončić" Reward).
    Apr 18 2025

    Friday, the Lakers announced that the team and Rob Pelinka have agreed to a contract extension that includes a promotion to President of Basketball Operations (in addition to his role as General Manager). On the surface, this will feel to many like a prize for simply having the good fortune of being handed Luka Dončić on a gift-wrapped platter. And no doubt, landing a generational superstar just now entering his prime never hurts an exec's ability to negotiate long-term security. But reducing Pelinka's successes to merely Luka is actually shortchanging what's been a very good 2024-25. Pelinka's tenure has seen many highs and lows, but as explained in this show, this year featured arguably nothing but strong decisions, whether big or around the margins.

  • Can the Wolves Guard Luka Dončić? Can LA Stop Anthony Edwards? Previewing Lakers vs. Minnesota

    Can the Wolves Guard Luka Dončić? Can LA Stop Anthony Edwards? Previewing Lakers vs. Minnesota
    Apr 17 2025
    Very, very few folks are picking the Timberwolves to win this first round series with the Lakers. In fact, it's hard to find anyone picking Minnesota. So are they off the mark? Ben Beeken, host of Locked On Wolves joins the show to break it down. For what its worth, Beeken agrees, this is LA's series to lose. Why? For starters, the Lakers have three of the four best players in the series, and in the postseason that tends to matter much more than what's happening deeper down the roster. He expects there to be some carryover from last year's playoffs, where Luka Dončić flambéed the Wolves, because Minnesota really isn't any different defensively this season. But what's the right way to approach it? Will Minnesota try aggressive doubles? Play it straight all around the floor? Meanwhile, what will the Lakers do to try and slow down Anthony Edwards? Can the Lakers keep the Wolves off the glass? Ultimately, is the conventional wisdom correct? Who wins the series? HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky, with guest Ben Beeken SEGMENT 1: How do the Wolves defend Luka? SEGMENT 2: What do the Lakers do with Ant? SEGMENT 3: X-factors and offensive rebounding.

  • Will JJ Redick's Inexperience Hurt the Lakers Against the Timberwolves?

    Will JJ Redick's Inexperience Hurt the Lakers Against the Timberwolves?
    Apr 16 2025

    JJ Redick has, on balance, not performed like a rookie coach this season. There have been some slow adjustments, the periodically odd choices for his inbounders, etc. But for the most part, Redick hasn't looked remotely like a deer in the headlights during his first go-around with a clipboard, which has played a role in reaching 50 wins.

    That said, the playoffs are a totally different beast, as Redick would be the first to say. Will the second season reveal some cracks in an otherwise impressive armor? We discuss.

    Hosts: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky

    1: How much JJ Redick's learning curve affect the Lakers?

    2) More on Redick's rookie playoff outing.

    3) Containing Anthony Edwards. Plus, Kleber available for the postseason?

  • Strong signs That Should Give the Lakers Confidence Vs. Timberwolves.

    Strong signs That Should Give the Lakers Confidence Vs. Timberwolves.
    Apr 15 2025
    The Lakers open up what will surely be a challenging first round series against Minnesota on Saturday evening at the Crypt. And while a lot of advanced numbers like what the Wolves have done this year–it's worth noting that in a season that has seemed like a step back, they won exactly one fewer game than the Lakers—it's not like there aren't strong positive signals for the Lakers as well. One big one? The (expected and typical) closing lineup of Luka, LeBron, Austin Reaves, Dorian Finney-Smith and Rui Hachimura has been very, very good. And as we've seen in the last couple of seasons against the Nuggets, the ability to close games strong has been an issue. It shouldn't be this time around. Meanwhile, while Minnesota's advanced metrics look better than LA's on the offensive and defensive end (and in net rating) the Lakers have a significantly better winning percentage against teams in the upper third of the NBA. So there's a lot to like, even while respecting the opponent. So how much will stuff like this impact the series in front of us? HOSTS: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT 1: The Lakers are closers. SEGMENT 2: Another strong indicator for LA. SEGMENT 3: A curious choice for backup C. Your favorite podcast now has a newsletter!

  • The Lakers to Face Minnesota in the 1st Round of the NBA Playoffs: A Tough Series Awaits??

    The Lakers to Face Minnesota in the 1st Round of the NBA Playoffs: A Tough Series Awaits??
    Apr 14 2025
    Other than Jordan Goodwin, the entire Lakers rotation rested in their regular season finale vs the Portland Trail Blazers, a 109-81 loss that meant absolutely nothing for a team already locked into the three seed. Instead, Luka, LeBron, Austin, and the gang started resting up and preparing for a first-round matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Lakers will likely (and rightly) be favored, but that's not the same thing as a cakewalk. Don't expect that. We explain why.
