Podcasts about baby lakers

Before there was a LeBron, Luka, or an Anthony Davis, there were the "Baby Lakers" -- a group of young draftees and G-League finds the team developed at the tail end and in the aftermath of the Kobe Bryant era and into when the team signed LeBron. Pete and Darius discuss this group of past players, how each of the conference finals teams has one of these former Lakers on their roster in a contributing role, and why as the team begins to build around Luka Dončić this sort of success from the draft and G-League can help the Lakers build out the depth they need to contend.  Support Pete here: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/lakerfilmroom Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/lakerfilmroom Pete's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LakerFilmRoom Pete's Playback: https://www.playback.tv/lakerfilmroom For Feedback or Questions: lakerfilmroom@gmail.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

A "Baby Laker" is back and all glowed-up! D'Angelo Russell returns to Los Angeles but with a very different looking Lakers. Amin & Charlotte look at how D'Angelo's homecoming will go partnering up with rising star Austin Reaves and whether Reaves should be less than thrilled to find out what the San Antonio Spurs were reportedly offering for him to leave Los Angeles.

Good mornin', sweet world! Skeets and Tas check in to discuss Jimmy Butler scoring 47 points to help the Heat force Game 7, Kyle Lowry doing just enough, the Celtics' late-game execution, and the Lakers hiring Darvin Ham as head coach.

Heading into this season, the Lakers, with a superteam headed by LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook, were considered among the favorites to win a championship. But like the equally star-laden Nets and Clippers, now find themselves with questions to ponder after a massively disappointing season. Around the league, is chasing stars at all cost emerging as a faulty approach?Joining today's show is ESPN's Kevin Arnovitz, one of the smartest basketball writers out there, who introduced the idea in a column a couple weeks ago. One major problem he identifies is culture and chemistry, and the challenges sustaining either in situations where stars come from the outside and don't have any proverbial skin in the game. The Lakers certainly had problems with both this season. Do they need to create some sense of culture that reaches past "Superstars!"What are the problems that can come with the "all mercenary" superteam construction? Wh does it matter if players don't have deeper skin in the game, that can come from spending time in an organization during more formative periods? What might be happening on Earth 2, where the Lakers made a point of leveraging the talent of the "Baby Lakers," rather than making it abundantly clear that the only purpose of the young guys was as trade fodder for a star.What is LeBron's future with the team? Why it might benefit the Lakers to build a culture that goes deeper than "superstars... and go!"HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky (Guest, Kevin Arnovitz!)SEGMENT 1: Why the Superteam! construction might be in peril. Where they tend to go wrong.SEGMENT 2: What can the Lakers rebuild a culture given all their roster turnover?SEGMENT 3: Do the Lakers use "Win at all costs" as a shield to avoid making harder, and potentially unpopular, decisions they'd have to explain?Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!PrizePicksCheck out PrizePicks.com and use promo code: “NBA” or go to your app store and download the app today.

The show - which covers issues ranging from LeBron James' future in Los Angeles to Rob Pelinka's difficult upcoming offseason to the Lakers' 2020 championship's place among other purple and gold titles to Anthony Davis' health to Russell Westbrook -is mostly centered around a comment left by Socrates Thalassos on the Locked On Lakers YouTube page:"Lakers future looks very bleak. Aging LBJ. Always Damaged Aggression Deficient. No draft picks-expect them to trade 27 and 29 to help with next year and to get off Russ. A passive aggressive drama fuels the next 3 years of LBJ, since I think he probably will sign the extension because he wants to stay in LA, not because he wants to stay with the Lakers. After that a totally empty cupboard with maybe Austin Reaves, Wenyen Gabriel and some undrafted projects in it. If we're lucky they'll be as much fun as the Baby Lakers were.Next title maybe 2035 if they're lucky. More likely 2040. But hey a bubble championship in 2020!... Or blow it up, trade AD and LBJ for as much as you can get, let Russ play out his contract without spending assets to get rid of him and jump start the whole process. With any luck, in 3 to 5 years you're a contender again."That led to all sorts of discussion. It starts with a quick review of the way the roster performed - or didn't, more precisely - as logged by The Athletic's Jovan Buha in his Lakers Report Card. The point wasn't to parse the grades, but note how badly the Lakers missed on most of what they did, which explains the pessimism of Socrates.From there, it's LeBron talk. What happens if he's committed to Los Angeles and to staying here, even if he doesn't believe the Lakers will be able to deliver another title? Could the Lakers sell him, and the fans, on a vision that doesn't have them talking title in October? And finally, Socrates' comment about the bubble title prompted a Twitter inquiry that got A TON of response. How connected are Lakers fans to the 2020 title?HOSTS: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT 1: The Lakers get grades. What do they reveal about the roster?SEGMENT 2: How much do LeBron's priorities matter if his on-court output looks like it typically does? Could management sell fans on something short of high end title contention next year?SEGMENT 3: What kind of attachment do fans have to the 2020 title?Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!PrizePicksCheck out PrizePicks.com and use promo code: “NBA” or go to your app store and download the app today.

The Ringer's Juliet Litman and Chris Ryan marvel at the NBA fights of late, and offer theories to explain the recent rise in incidents (1:05). Next, they examine the Isaiah Thomas video tribute debacle (11:20) and Clippers-Cavs trade rumors (19:10).

The Baby Lakers are playing some alright basketball. Their defense is stout, and the offense is coming along nicely. The undermanned Warriors come into Staples center without Steph Curry, Draymond Green, Shaun Livingston, and Zaza Pachulia. Nick Young is probable.Around the NBA there are rookies who are impressing their team's fans. Of course there's the rookies of the night, Jordan Bell, Lonzo Ball and Kyle Kuzma. But elsewhere the likes of Ben Simmons and Donovan Mitchell are making life hell for defenders.Kobe Bryant is having both numbers 8 and 24 retired tonight by the Lakers at halftime.

On the fifth episode of the Hoops & Brews podcast, @Pavyworld & @reeltpj bring in special guest Scott Lewis (@scott_ceoofSUH) to play an NBA trivia drinking game, talk Warriors, Cavs and Houston Rockets. Then The homie Darius comes over to chat NBA and talks clubbing with NBA players.

    Without D'Angelo Russell, the Lakers have hit a bit of a rough patch. Still, the future is bright. Lou Williams may be sixth man of the year, and Jordan Clarkson still sounds like one of the better deal in free agency. Brandon Ingram may need to sit out games for the buffet table.   Milwaukee is more on the cusp, and may be the sleeper in the east. Is the Greek Freak the Greek superstar? Is Jabari a worthy Robin? And how exactly does Matthew Dellavadova get things done

The guys return after taking two weeks off for Thanksgiving and plenty has happened in the world of LA sports! The Baby Lakers managed to put 3 more wins on the board, the Clippers came back down to earth somewhat posting 4 of their 6 losses of the season, USC are headed to the Rose Bowl and inexplicably the Rams gave Jeff Fisher an extension securing them a 2017 season of mediocrity. All that plus there are big changes for the Galaxy. Listen in to get caught up on all your favorite LA sports teams!

When Mike D'Antoni took the job in Houston, many wondered how the creative offensive mind would work with one of the most prolific offensive players the NBA has ever seen in James Harden. His solution: turn the prolific shooting guard into a prolific point guard.  BRILLIANT! Or is it? Also, it is easy to make predictions in the preseason, but sometimes it takes a few games to really feel good about them. Which predictions are we sitting comfortably with? And are the Baby Lakers suddenly the most entertaining team in Los Angeles?
