On today's episode, Jason and Producer Rob G do a deep dive into the reports that Kyrie Irving could force his way to the New York Knicks, Los Angeles Lakers or Los Angeles Clippers if the Brooklyn Nets don't offer him the long-term extension he's been seeking. J-Mac's frustrations with Kyrie are well-documented, but even he seems flabbergasted that Irving thinks he still holds this much power. Kyrie has been a disruptor everywhere he's been for over five years, and we're supposed to believe that teams are still willing to bend over backwards to appease him? Stop it! However, Rob G argues that LeBron James and the Lakers would welcome Irving (and the headache that comes along with him) if it means they can get off the Russell Westbrook contract and put themselves back into championship contention in the same offseason. The Lakers have always been a star-driven franchise; they have never been the type to build and develop for the future. Would the Lakers really tie themselves to old LeBron, mercurial Kyrie and oft-injured Anthony Davis moving forward? Maybe. The guys agree that there's no way the Los Angeles Clippers would get involved considering how much depth they already have alongside Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, but the New York Knicks are probably even more desperate than the Lakers to land another star so it's entirely possible they mortgage their future for Kyrie. Either way, this Kyrie Irving soap opera is far from finished.  Click here to subscribe, rate and review all of the latest Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre podcasts!

It was a busy weekend for Darvin Ham as he fills out his coaching staff. Multiple reports say the Lakers will hire Chris Jent, a longtime assistant who has worked both with Ham in Atlanta and LeBron James in Cleveland, for a lead assistant position. What does he bring? Meanwhile Quinton Crawford, a very well regarded young coach who Ham had hoped to keep from Frank Vogel's staff, will be joining Jason Kidd in Dallas. As for more names... how about Rasheed Wallace? When asked about 'Sheed, long rumored to be coming to LA, Ham told Rich Eisen he could "neither confirm nor deny" that was a thing, but said it with a laugh and noted he's a candidate for sure. What would adding Wallace mean for Anthony Davis? Finally, on a recent podcast the great Kevin O'Connor of The Ringer noted that the Lakers have some interest in Washington star Bradley Beal, who has said he has made a decision about his future... but isn't quite ready to share? Would that decision be "go to LA?" Probably not, but even the hypothetical trade - Russell Westbrook, two first round picks and basically anything else the Wizards demanded the Lakers throw in - is fascinating given the context of the Lakers roster, their other available assets, and everything they've been through over the last couple of years. HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: The Lakers will hire Chris Jent to be Darvin Ham's lead assistant. SEGMENT 2: If the Lakers bring in Rasheed Wallace, what impact could that have on Anthony Davis? SEGMENT 3: Would Westbrook-for-Beal be a good idea? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Anthony Davis was back at the facility Tuesday, working with the famous/infamous "Lethal Shooter," a somewhat controversial shooting coach who has worked with a bunch of NBA players, including some current Lakers. So you now have a fairly comical situation where fans were upset that he hadn't been shooting, and now are upset at who he's shooting with. And meanwhile, LeBron James, famous for subtweeting teammates on a variety of issues, has spent the week posting to social media all kinds of excited motivational messages about next season, including workout videos. So is A.D.'s public return to the gym a response to LeBron's social posts? Probably not! But that folks are asking the question reflects the levels of angst people feel about the team and Davis in particular after a first round playoff exit was followed by the tire fire of the 2021-22 season. More potential angst comes from James and his extension. Is he going to sign it? Might he tip his hand in a way that would be useful to the Lakers as they get into the Draft and free agency? As they consider trades? Because there's a big difference in how you act as a franchise if you know he's around vs. if you're just not quite sure. Finally, many are asking whether Darvin Ham is the right guy to get the most out of Russell Westbrook. Certainly he has qualities of leadership, respect and communication that give him as good a shot as anyone, and simply not being Frank Vogel will make a difference... but ultimately is this a question that's less about Ham and more about Westbrook? HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: Anthony Davis is back in the gym... and the controversy doesn't quite end. SEGMENT 2: Is LeBron subtweeting Davis? And what happens if the Lakers don't really know if he's going to sign that extension this summer? What impact does it have on the team's strategy?

Game 5 was a clunker for Steph Curry, but nonetheless you can make a very solid argument that Steph has been the difference between the Warriors and a Boston team that has frequently looked deeper and better overall. But Curry's play compared with a much more inconsistent Jayson Tatum for the Celtics is a big reason Golden State has a 3-2 lead. So what does that have to do with the Lakers? Well, they're built on a premise that Davis is in that tiny sliver of players who in the ultra elite, and will consistently outperform that still-excellent class of nomal elite players in the biggest games on the biggest stages. If Davis is more Tatum than Curry, so to speak, that has a massive impact on L.A.'s upside. So that's one big reason Lakers fans are showing some real angst around Davis, which was seen in the comments section of the Locked On Lakers YouTube page following Monday's show. If he's not "that guy," the Lakers don't have many options going forward to find someone who is (because there are still very, very few players out there better than him), or fill out the roster in a way that helps make up the difference. Meanwhile, the Denver Nuggets and Oklahoma City Thunder agreed to a seemingly minor trade that will have OKC absorb JaMychal Green into their available cap space. Maybe minor for them, but not for the Lakers who had at least penciled in the Thunder as a potential trade partner, capable of absorbing into cap space. That gets harder, now. And it's a reminder that moving Westbrook is no easy feat, unless you want to overpay in big ways to do it. HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: What watching Steph Curry in the NBA Finals reveals about Anthony Davis and the Lakers. SEGMENT 2: What does it mean for the Lakers if A.D. isn't quite "that guy?" SEGMENT 3: Trading Russell Westbrook just got a little harder. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
