How should the Lakers replace Jason Kidd, and did Montrezl Harrell have a good season?
Lakers Assistant Jason Kidd will reportedly be hired to replace Rick Carlisle as the Dallas Mavericks' head coach. It's felt like Kidd would inevitably get a head coaching job somewhere this offseason, despite a mediocre perception as a tactician, and a flat out problematic perception away from the court. How does Kidd perpetually remain at the top of wish lists? In the meantime, the Lakers will need to find someone to replace him on Frank Vogel's staff. What type of coach should they target?
Plus, an interesting listener email about Montrezl Harrell's defense, which leads to a recap of his season, which left many Laker fans underwhelmed. Is that a fair assessment?
Hosts: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky
SEGMENT 1: Kidd's imminent new gig, despite tons off professional and personal baggage (including a tough past with the organization that hiring him) speaks to the power of respect around the league among peers. Whether LeBron James, Damian Lillard or (presumably) Luka Doncic, Kidd's always had it, and that makes all the difference.
SEGMENT 2: What type of coach should the Lakers find to replace Kidd? Are certain skills more important than others?
SEGMENT 3: So... did Montrezl Harrell have a good season? Opening up the Locked On Lakers mailbag to take a deep dive into one of the team's more fascinating players.
