In this episode, Jas is joined by Senior Writer with Lakers Nation, Trevor Lane, to discuss all of the latest news from Lakers land. To kick things off, the guys get into the Lakers claiming Kostas Antetokounmpo, younger brother of reigning NBA MVP Giannis, off waivers and if this was a move made in order to lure the Greek Freak to Los Angeles when he becomes an unrestricted free agent in 2021. Following that, Trevor and Jas get into how NBA free agency will affect small market teams going forward. With so many stars taking less money to play in big markets, will the owners fight for a chance to the current system in the next round CBA negotiations? With ESPN"s Brian Windhorst's comments suggesting Toronto and the Lakers felt like they were played by Leonard's camp, the guys look into how Kawhi's decision to leave the NBA Champion Raptors and spurn the Lakers for the Clippers played out. Did Kawhi really consider joining the purple and gold? or was it just a negotiation tactic? To wrap things up, Trevor and Jas look at the stacked NBA Western Conference and if any surprise teams can do some damage next season. Learn more about your ad choices.
