LOCKED ON LAKERS -- 6/28/17 -- Is it time for the Lakers to offer up more in a trade for Paul George?
Rumors continue to swirl around the Los Angeles Lakers and Indiana Pacers All-Star Paul George, who is now reportedly attempting to get LeBron James and Klay Thompson to join him in purple and gold, all while the Boston Celtics, Washington Wizards and Cleveland Cavaliers plot to swipe him in a trade. All of the new rumors gave host Harrison Faigen and Silver Screen and Roll’s own Gary Kester a ton to discuss (Anthony Irwin was once again a DNP-OLD). Do the other teams creating a feeding...
LOCKED ON LAKERS -- 6/26/17 -- Don’t let the D’Angelo Russell trade distract you from how amazing Lonzo Ball is going to be
All of the upheaval and rumors over the last week regarding rumors over potential trades for Paul George and the actual trade of D’Angelo Russell to the Brooklyn Nets have distracted from potentially the biggest thing to happen to the Los Angeles Lakers in a long time. Lonzo Ball has officially joined the team, and he’s going to be really, really good. After releasing his first video in two years, NBA 2K community manager, Lakers hype-video master and purple and gold superfan Chris...
LOCKED ON LAKERS -- 6/23/17 -- Does drafting Lonzo Ball make up for trading D’Angelo Russell?
Heading into the NBA Draft, the Los Angeles Lakers basically had to take care of two things: draft Lonzo Ball and trade for Paul George. The first was probably more important as it wouldn’t require giving up anything, but not accomplishing the second tasks certainly added to the leftover pain from trading away D’Angelo Russell. Can’t wait to watch Cap Space help spread the floor next year. To analyze the draft, we got together with Laker Film Room’s Pete Zayas, Forum Blue &...
LOCKED ON LAKERS -- 6/21/17 -- How big of a mistake was the D’Angelo Russell trade?
It is with heavy hearts that we must announce Harrison Faigen has been traded to the Locked on Nets podcast in order to shed some salary. His time with the podcast has been great, but in the end, we want the cap space to sign Bill Simmons in the event he becomes a free agent again. The Los Angeles Lakers essentially made this exact gamble Tuesday afternoon when they dealt D’Angelo Russell to the Brooklyn Nets along with Timofey Mozgov’s contract in the hopes of clearing enough cap space...
LOCKED ON LAKERS -- 6/19/17 -- What's the most the Lakers should give up in a trade for Paul George?
The Los Angeles Lakers are suddenly in the midst of a waterfall of rumors after there were multiple reports Sunday that Paul George had informed the Indiana Pacers he planned to leave next summer, with the Lakers the most likely destination from there. Harrison and Anthony jumped right into the rumors, talked about the most they'd give up in a deal for George, and debated whether the Lakers should wait for him in free agency or if the risk of losing him was too big. Then they talked about...
LOCKED ON LAKERS -- 6/16/17 -- Should the Lakers trade back in the draft?
As rumors about over what the Lakers will do with their No. 2 draft pick, Harrison and Anthony got together to discuss all the various scenarios. First, they talked about what the Lakers should do if the Celtics do as rumored and take Josh Jackson. Then they discussed the rumors the Lakers might trade back, and whether or not that's a good idea before discussing all the reports about Brandon Ingram being untouchable in trades.
LOCKED ON LAKERS -- 6/14/17 -- Could the Lakers really draft Josh Jackson over Lonzo Ball?
Lonzo Ball’s position as the Los Angeles Lakers’ top choice has certainly wavered over the last week or so, with Josh Jackson making a legitimate charge over the span of his two workouts in front of Magic Johnson, Rob Pelinka and Luke Walton. The question remains, however: Are the Lakers really considering the wing from Kansas, or are they putting up a smokescreen to potentially convince some desperate team to move up and ensure they get their guy? To discuss that, plus Jackson’s fit...
LOCKED ON LAKERS -- 6/12/17 -- Should Lonzo Ball being out of shape in workout affect his draft standing?
There was a report that Lonzo Ball's conditioning didn't impress the Lakers, so Harrison and Anthony discussed whether or not they thought it mattered, with medical info on whether his hamstring injury might still be affecting him from Dr. Jen. Later, Harrison and Anthony discussed LaVar Ball's comments on the Lakers lack of leadership, and then Harrison gave his latest hot take. All that and more on the latest Locked on Lakers.
LOCKED ON LAKERS -- 6/9/17 -- How likely are the LeBron James to L.A rumors? Plus the latest on Lonzo Ball with Mark Medina
In case all the rumors about the Los Angeles Lakers’ interest in Lonzo Ball or other prospects heading into the NBA Draft weren’t already enough, LeBron James’ name just had to come up in rumors connected to the franchise. As always, the Lakers refuse to be boring. In the first segment, Harrison and Anthony discuss those reports and how likely they might feel. Because we’ve heard them before, we can help but be dubious. After the break, we brought in Mark Medina of the Southern...
LOCKED ON LAKERS -- 6/7/17 -- Is Lonzo Ball the star the Lakers need?
The Los Angeles Lakers worked out Lonzo Ball Wednesday, and the instant takeaway was just how many media were at the workout. It was one of the more covered events since Kobe Bryant retired, and hosts Harrison Faigen and Anthony Irwin joined in the coverage in the latest episode of Locked on Lakers. Ball said all the right things and it sounds like the workout went well, and Anthony and Harrison debated whether or not it reinforced that he’s the right pick for the Lakers, especially in the...
