Mailbag! Who Starts at Shooting Guard, and How Does Anthony Davis Influence That? Plus, Kuzma Talks Trade!
Kyle Kuzma was the last remnant from the Lakers' "kids" era. But alas, all good things must come to end, as it did when he got dealt in a package to the Wizards for Russell Westbrook. And for someone who clearly enjoyed being in L.A. and being a Laker, that was probably a bit of a bummer. But in a recent appearance on Gilbert Arenas' "The No Chill Podcast" he made it clear there was no animosity on his end towards his old franchise. "All love," as he put it. In fact, Kuzma and LeBron actually hung out a couple days after the deal went through, and it was all good. The Kamenetzkys discuss this mature outlook on the situation.
From there, they open the mailbag! (Send questions via Twitter (@kambrothers), email (kamenetzkybrothers@gmail.com) or through comments on the iTunes show page.
The first question comes from Jay Taylor (@JayTayl14352491), who asks when the Lakers will stop shuffling the decks so frequently with their rosters, and actually build a team that feels more like a true team. The answer? Somewhere between "Not until they're done maximizing LeBron James and Anthony Davis" and "Never, because that's not what this franchise does." For better and worse, depending on how you operate emotionally as a sports fan, the Lakers aren't built like that.
Finally, questions from Eran Soroka (@sorokman) and LA10 (@LuisG81045) about the shooting guard options for the Lakers. Who'll start? Who's in the rotation? Who might collect DNP-CD's?
