I Love Basketball: The Originator and the Future of Player Empowerment Converge on the Lakers / Hampered by a voice quickly fading due to sickness, and Sabreena's devastating absence, Sasha attempts to pull off a solo pod in the vein of Stephen A. Smith. It delightfully feels like you are right there with her at midnight in her room talking about basketball with the crickets chirping in the background and the occasional whoosh of a passing car (giver her a break, she lives off Sunset — it's a busy area). The NBA doesn’t have a whole lot left to give us this offseason, and we’re all getting a little hungry as a result, so Sasha moves away from speculation about the team’s roster fit and addresses the chatter around the league and media about the nature of Anthony Davis' departure from New Orleans. The originator of the player empowerment era, Lebron, and one of the prominent faces of the future, AD, converge on our beloved team.

To kick things off, the guys discuss the domino effect Kawhi Leonard had on the Lakers filling out their roster, with the latest addition being 3 and D guard Avery Bradley. With the Lakers reportedly running LeBron James at the point guard spot, Marcus and Jas share their thoughts on who else should start for the Lakers and how the coaching staff should set its rotations next season. Is Kyle Kuzma better suited to come off the bench as a scorer? Or should the team be running out their best five players right from tip-off. Following that, the discussion shifts to Lakers head coach, Frank Vogel, and how much leeway he will get this season from the front office. With LeBron's lack of patience and Jason Kidd lurking the background, would Vogel's job be on the line if the team struggles through the midway point of the season?

Recapping a wild opening day of NBA free agency: The Lakers are still very much in the hunt for Kawhi
Recapping a wild opening day of NBA free agency: The Lakers are still very much in the hunt for Kawhi Leonard, who can Rob Pelinka sign if the team gets or misses out on Leonard to fill out the roster, plus more with Harrison Faigen / In this episode, Harrison Faigen and Jas Kang breakdown the opening day of NBA free agency. The biggest news is that Kawhi Leonard still has not made a decision and the Lakers are reportedly still very much in the mix. The guys get into if waiting for Kawhi is the best way to go and if the team did itself a disservice by missing out on most of the other available names. If Rob Pelinka is able to get Kawhi signed, or he strikes out with The Finals MVP, who can the Lakers bring in to fill out their roster behind LeBron James and Anthony Davis? Following that, Harrison and Jas talk about how the Lakers benefitted from teams overpaying for certain free agents, plus how Pelinka can get creative moving forward. To wrap things up, Harrison and Jas get into Brooklyn Nets getting Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant, D'Angelo Russell moving to the Warriors, plus share their thoughts on the Jimmy Butler move to the Miami Heat. - Learn more about your ad choices.

The Lakers clear enough cap space to sign a max player, Kawhi is rumored to meet with the Lakers, could Klay be in the purple and gold? and more with Anthony Irwin / In this episode, Anthony and Jas kick things off by discussing the Lakers shipping Moe Wagner, Isaac Bonga and Jemerrio Jones to the Wizards, clearing up enough cap space to sign another max-level free agent and how this provides some level of vindication for Rob Pelinka, although the job is not done yet. With the move, the rumors are pouring in. Kawhi Leonard will reportedly meet with the Lakers once free agency kicks and if the Warriors don't offer Klay Thompson the max, he will apparently meet with the team as well. What if neither guy ends up in the purple and gold next season? Anthony and Jas get into if the Lakers should chase a player like Jimmy Butler with all the cap space they have available, or use the money to bring in multiple players, including D'Angelo Russell. Following that, the guys look into which of the older, cheaper veterans would be a good fit on the squad next year as well as who is the best option available to fill in the center spot. To wrap things up, Anthony and Jas give what their sales pitch would be to Kawhi Leonard to come join the Lakers. - Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Will the Lakers be able to get a max cap space slot after the Pelicans trade the No. 4 pick
Will the Lakers be able to get a max cap space slot after the Pelicans trade the No. 4 pick to the Hawks? Should the Lakers choose depth over another superstar and a breakdown of the Talen Horton-Tucker pick with Jacob Rude / In this episode, Jas is joined by Jacob Rude. The big news from the NBA Draft was that the Lakers picked Virginia forward, De'Andre Hunter with the No. 4 pick, which we all thought was going to New Orleans as part of the Anthony Davis trade. But, the Pelicans ended up making a deal with the Atlanta, sending Hunter to the Hawks. - With this move, the focus shifts to if the Hawks are willing to absorb the contracts of Isaac Bonga, Jermerrio Jones and Moe Wagner. If they're willing to do play ball, it would give the Lakers would be able to open up a max slot. Jacob and Jas get into if the Lakers should go that route, or use the cap space to acquire more veteran depth. - Following that, the guys get into who could be potential targets for the Lakers in free agency and how they can fill out the roster under both scenarios as well as discuss the potential of the Lakers signing players to one-year deals and then look to bring in another big name in 2020. To wrap things up Jacob and Jas breakdown the Lakers selection of Taylor Horton-Tucker at No. 46 after trading a future pick and cash to the Orlando Magic. - Learn more about your ad choices.

What happens with Kawhi after the Raptors win the championship and what is holding up the Anthony Davis deal? /
What happens with Kawhi after the Raptors win the championship and what is holding up the Anthony Davis deal? / In this episode, Alex Regla and Jas Kang breakdown the Raptors championship and what it means for Kawhi Leonard's pending free agency. Does bring a title to Toronto make it less or more likely that he stays in Canada, or does this open the door for the Lakers? The Leonard rumors have been dormant, but with the season officially over, the spotlight will begin to shine on the quiet superstar. - Now that the on-court portion of the season is complete, the focus turns to player movement, and there's no bigger name in play than Anthony Davis. With the Lakers believing they're in the driver seat to get the deal done, why is David Griffin not pulling the trigger on the trade? Are the Pelicans stringing the Lakers along to try and get a better package out of Danny Ainge and the Boston Celtics? The Lakers biggest rivals apparently haven't been deterred by Davis' agent, Rich Paul, saying his client will likely leave in the summer of 2020. The guys discuss which teams package is more appealing and how much things have changed since the debacle at the trade deadline this past February. - Alex and Jas then get into how the Lakers and Pelinka have to find a way to bring AD west and what it means for the organization if they don't. Even with the worst-case scenario occurring, the Lakers will still have enough cap space to be a major player in free agency. - Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The 30 podcast: What do with the fourth pick, does Anthony Davis have any reason to stay in New Orleans, Kawhi or Kyrie, plus which Lakers are most like certain Game of Thrones characters with Sasha Ashall / In this episode of The 30, Jas is joined by Sasha Ashall. They kick things off by discussing which players they would like the Lakers to take with No. 4 pick in the draft. Following that, Sasha and Jas look at the possibility that Anthony Davis would stay in New Orleans to play with Zion Williamson. With Davis' potential free agency coming up next year, Sasha and Jas get into if NBA players owe the teams they play for loyalty, or if they should simply do what is best for themselves. After that, the duo share which free agent they want to see in the purple and gold next year and Sasha gives a breakdown on how Kawhi Leonard's game could fit alongside LeBron next season if he chooses to play for the Lakers. To wrap things up, Sasha and Jas compare Game of Thrones characters with who would be their Laker counterparts. - Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

They also delved into Larry Nance, Jr. addressing that report about him and Rob Pelinka, and the growing feeling that Pelinka’s perception around the league isn’t all negative, and actually appears a little mixed.

To kick things off, the guys talk about the Lakers front office situation and the recent report that Magic Johnson was accidentally cc'd on emails between owner Jeanie Buss and GM Rob Pelinka, as if they have never used the internet before. With an NBA executive saying the Lakers or Knicks will get Boogie Cousins as a consolation prize, Marcus and Jas discuss if taking on the injured big man on a short term deal makes sense for the team, or will they be better off preserving their cap space for a run at Anthony Davis in 2020? Also on this episode, they look into the latest news surrounding the Lakers coaching search. With the usual suspects being joined by Joey and Jesse Buss, as well as Kurt and Linda Rambis, Marcus and Jas go over the Lakers aging methods when it comes to hiring for key roles in the organization.

We have just the guy who can tell us how to get it right in LA. GM and coach Arenas figures things out from the top down. For Gilbert, it starts in the front office, being able to recognize the right players to keep, move and bring in. Then it’s the coach, one who knows who to connect to their players and a guy who can maximize talent. - As for those players, of course it starts with LeBron. When you have an all-time great player, you surround him with the right blend of star power, experience, value signings and complimentary pieces. The bottom line, there is help in the horizon, but there is definitely work to be done to get there. - - Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Finally, they try and fail to defend Javale McGee from the haters, and wonder whether Luke Walton is really taking his head coaching job seriously in what is most likely the final month of his Lakers tenure, or if he checked out long ago like so many of the Lakers veterans. - Learn more about your ad choices.

Then we move to some weird potential shake-up trades, including why we think the Jazz and Wizards line up really well for a big deal in January if things keep going this same way. - Then, we chat about some of the terrific rookies who have played this season, including Luka Doncic, Jaren Jackson Jr., and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. - Next, we move to the Lakers, who are quickly figuring some things out. LeBron has been ridiculous, lineups with Lonzo have been working, and why Brandon Ingram's numbers seem a bit deceiving on the surface. - Finally, we chat about some college players.

The Blazers are in position to elevate their ceiling with the right additions. Ditto for the Pelicans. The same might even be said for the Hornets.

How do the new look Lakers lead by Lebron James grade out? We like a lot of what we see from their young players but they’ve not been able to get settled on the defensive end yet. The Spurs look great on defense. But all of the concern we’ve had about their roster being constructed to be successful on the defensive end have proven to be legitimate thus far. The Blazers made some fundamental changes to how they are managing the rotation and they are doing really well. The Timberwolves had one of the tougher schedules to begin the season and the are competing. But they are still not prioritizing generating shots from the three point line.All of this and more.Follow Dane on Twitter: @DaneMooreNBAFollow us on Twitter: @willis_glen / @LawtonWillis / @presspodcastLearn more about your ad choices.

Full Court Press NBA Podcast Episode 103 – Offseason Updates for Lakers Clippers Warriors / The NBA season is here. And we need to complete our offseason updates. We had been holding out on the New York and LA teams to see if Jimmy Butler’s situation would impact a roster. In this episode we cover the LA teams. What to make of the veteran players the Lakers signed to one year deals? The plan on any Lebron team is to surround him with shooters. Is the roster constructed for that? What are we looking to see from Ingram, Lonzo, Kuzma and Hart? The Clippers look to be trying to change things on the fly? That’s usually not advisable. What are they really trying to accomplish this season? And what can be said of the Warriors? Well, they are not as deep as they have been the last few seasons. Might that cost them? Also how will the play when DeMarcus Cousins returns?All of this and more.Follow Dane on Twitter: @DaneMooreNBAFollow us on Twitter: @willis_glen / @LawtonWillis / @presspodcastLearn more about your ad choices.

How about frontcourt? What will the top-five-player rankings look like in a half-decade? Would you rather have Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton or Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic? Who are the Lakers most likely to trade for this season? Who are the Lakers most likely to sign next summer? Are the Grizzlies doomed? Will the Wizards blow it up? Are there any preseason predictions we already want back? Will Pascal Siakam ever make an All-Star team?

How will Kawhi play in a new system with the Raptors? Will Giannis finally get some support in Milwaukee? Does the LeBron have the Lakers in contender mode already? - We also get into the breakout teams and breakout players poised to step up this season. For Gil, it comes down to development and who has it all together to take things to another level. For teams like Detroit or Denver, they could fail to get off the ground, or just might surprise us all. - Before we go, Gil gets into his age theory, where he favors a younger player with upside as the better choice as opposed to the ones that peak early.
