The Lakers, Cohesion, and Resetting the Baseline

Coming off of what was unquestionably their best win of the season, the Lakers' season can be summarized in one of two ways: the pessimist says they're just 7-5 with a ton of questions, injuries, and a lot to be desired. The optimist says this team is just two careless games away vs. OKC from a 9-3 record and nobody would be talking about any of the items that are currently conversational bullets. The realist knows it's all somewhere in between. For the first time all season, the Lakers played with a team cohesion from start to finish in the win vs. Miami, the role players really stepped up to the plate, and the full Russell Westbrook experience is both why the Lakers won and almost lost all in the same swoop. Ethan returns for a solo show to talk about all of that, the Alex Caruso story that will not go away, and much more in 30 action-packed minutes of the Hoop Ball Lakers podcast.SUBSCRIBE, Rate and Review on iTunes and make sure to follow @HoopBallLakers on Twitter for all our delightful updates and goodies!Manscaped is BACK, baby!
