Jordan Clarkson the 6th man, good CBA news, and Sasha statues!
With preseason games 2 and 3 in the books, we have a little better feel for this Lakers team, and for the first time in a while... the sun is poking through the clouds!
This team, in our humble opinion, still isn't going to win a ton of games, but on both sides of the ball have given Lakers fans all the feels to this point in the fake game schedule. Some of the more interesting trends: Jordan Clarkson has come off the bench for all three games, with Lou Williams as a starter. The results have been positive all around, so will Luke Walton stick with that lineup? If so, is that a good thing? Julius Randle has improved his playmaking skills over the offseason. How far can he take it? What about Brandon Ingram? Any concern over his slow start?
This after kicking around some big news, including happy reports on negotiations for a new CBA, and a very unusual ambassadorship for Yao Ming.
And we cap it off not just with statues for Sasha Vujacic, but a rousing game of Sasha Vujacic trivia!
It's likely more than you can handle in a single episode, but we're willing to risk it.
