On today’s episode, Jason discusses JJ Redick finally securing the job as the next head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers, what the realistic expectations should be in Los Angeles for the first-time head coach, why it’s clear that the Lakers will need much more than just LeBron James and Anthony Davis to become a contender in the Western Conference again and which good players on bad teams can be targeted to help build out the Purple and Gold roster. Finally, J-Mac closes the show with a few quick thoughts on the Oklahoma City Thunder’s acquisition of All-NBA defender Alex Caruso.
