    Lakers Reporter, Mike Trudell, joined the podcast with Ioua and Dee for final thoughts about the team before the season starts. We talk about how the team is coming together after the 6 preseason games both on the court and off the court, and what expectations we should have for the team moving forward, while also considering the recent injuries sustained by many of our rotation players. We talk about the development of the starting lineup and what that could look like with AD at the 5 or in a more traditional version of having 2 bigs in the frontcourt.
