Scouting Carmelo Anthony on the Lakers: With guest Mike Richman
Carmelo Anthony has been connected to the Lakers for nearly a decade, famously meeting with the team in 2014 to potentially join the team. Several more years passed before a deal came to fruition, but he's finally in purple and gold, albeit as a much different player than during his prime as one of the league's premiere superstars. These days, he's more of a outside shooting specialist than a full-blown scoring machine, and will have to pick his spots to assert himself. How effective can he be in season 19, at age 37? Andy Kamenetzky talks with Mike Richman of Locked On Blazers, who covered Melo's two seasons in Portland. What does Melo have left in the tank? Is he too big of a defensive liability to stay on the floor for extended stretches? And what would a ring mean to him at this stage?
Afterward, Brian Kamenetzky joins the show, and they react to the interview.
