Lakers Lounge ·

2025/08/20

One of our favorite guests stops by in this episode, as Kirk Henderson (Mavs Moneyball, Pod Maverick) checks in to talk about Luka Doncic's offseason. Is this body transformation actually different than past summers? The guys also talk about the Luka-Kyrie Irving combination and whether that willingness to make that work can extend to LeBron James. They wander around a little and then discuss the Mavericks as potential contenders. To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit:

Lakers Lounge ·

2025/08/20

One popular response to Luka Doncic's body transformation from Mavericks fans who've paid closer attention to his career than Lakers fans has been: "He always does this. He slims down in the summer than gains weight during the season." Anthony poses this take to Kirk, who explains why it holds some truth but does think this is a little different than years past.

FULL: Let's all figure out the fifth starter together

Lakers Lounge ·

2025/08/19

Anthony tried out a new format for this episode. Seeing as so many people have their thoughts on who the Lakers' fifth starter should be, he figured he'd harness that and use some of the better takes he saw in a tweet he sent on the matter. This led to a really fun, multi-faceted and fair conversation on the matter. We'll be doing this again.

PART 1: Rui vs. Smart... Who you got?

Lakers Lounge ·

2025/08/19

It most likely comes down to two guys for the final starting gig. Anthony has a preference but there is definitely a case to be made for either. Let's hash it out together.

PART 2: What if the Lakers swapped out starters to...

Lakers Lounge ·

2025/08/19

One concept lobbed out there as an option for the Lakers' starters was a variable group where, on some nights, Smart starts against a team with a perimeter-oriented primary creator and, on others, Rui starts to match up with a different kind of team. Anthony explains why he likes the idea in theory, but why it likely won't happen. He then gets interrupted by Myles and wraps with a couple questions from the live audience.

Lakers Lounge ·

2025/08/18

Anthony dips into the mailbag and listeners are still curious what the Luka Doncic era might look like, especially after LeBron James departs -- however that might be.

Anthony goes game by game to break down a schedule that feels pretty manageable for the Lakers. It opens light and never feels overwhelming. As of right now, that's all we can ask for. From there, he dives into the ownership situation in Boston and how applicable that might be to the Lakers' own transfer of power.

Lakers Lounge ·

2025/08/14

Anthony has been predicting this (because it's how it usually goes) but the schedule-makers came through again.

Lakers Lounge ·

Is this another situation where the Lakers allow team seniority to prevent them from running a lineup that makes the most sense?

PART 2: Optimizing Luka/LeBron vs. staggering them

Lakers Lounge ·

2025/08/13

Anthony still needs to see what the offense looks like and, based on that, would reconfigure some of his lineups. If LeBron and Luka are going to operate together, sweet, let's maximize that. If not, then they (are likely screwed) need to optimize those staggered groups.

Lakers Lounge ·

2025/08/12

Anthony has found himself thinking quite a bit lately about what Luka Doncic is capable of as a Laker. This got him to thinking: Can he crack the Lakers' Mt. Rushmore? What would that look like? Where does LeBron currently stand in this regard? He and Harrison talk about this and wander all around the notion of legacy in this iconic franchise.To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Lakers Lounge ·

2025/08/12

Anthony and Harrison outline who they think belong on Mt. Lakemore, before diving into whether or not Luka can crack that list. They also laugh at how many teams 40-year-old LeBron would be the best player in the history of the franchise for.

PART 2: Can any Mt. Rushmore Lakers be unseated?

Lakers Lounge ·

2025/08/12

There are four Lakers players who belong on Mt. Lakemore. If Luka Doncic is going to make that exclusive list, he's going to have to knock one of them off. So, it's worth asking: Can anyone currently etched into that mountain actually be knocked off?
