  • The Lakers Really May Get Jarred Vanderbilt Back Soon, for Real This Time

    The Lakers Really May Get Jarred Vanderbilt Back Soon, for Real This Time
    Jan 9 2025
    This is a difficult time in Los Angeles, with fire impacting massive portions of the city, unfathomable loss already and great uncertainty still ahead. How it influences the NBA calendar isn't a priority concern, but that said at least as of Wednesday night, there has been no announcement about whether the Lakers and Charlotte will actually be playing tonight at the Crypt. (It seems like a bad idea to do anything that puts people in their cars and has the potential to require the attention of first responders, especially since it's abundantly clear that this crisis is not going to end today, but we'll see what the league chooses to do.) Our thoughts are everyone in the community, especially those directly affected, including our colleague Darian Vaziri, host of Locked On Clippers, whose family home was lost in the fire. In this episode, we talk about the human impact of the fires, including on the Lakers. JJ Redick's family, for example, was evacuated from the Pacific Palisades neighborhood on Tuesday. From there, it's a conversation about Jared Vanderbilt, who finally, truly, this-time-for-real seems near a return from his multiple foot surgeries. The Lakers will have more to say in a week or so, but Vando is back on the floor doing full court work, with contact. That's good news for the team, especially as we get closer to the trade deadline, which is a month away now. To see Vanderbilt back in the lineup, get a feel for what he's capable of doing, how he fits and so on, gives Rob Pelinka more data points as he tries to allocate the team's limited trade capital as effectively as possible. HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: The fires in LA are impacting everything and everyone, including the Lakers and the NBA.SEGMENT 2: Seriously, this time it seems like Jarred Vanderbilt is set to return soon. SEGMENT 3: Getting Vando back is a big deal. Your favorite podcast now has a newsletter! In One-stop for ultimate team and league coverage delivered right to your in box.

  • Unfocused Lakers Lose to Mavericks 118-97, Despite No Luka or Kyrie

    Unfocused Lakers Lose to Mavericks 118-97, Despite No Luka or Kyrie
    Jan 8 2025
    There have been a few good candidates for "Worst" among the (now) 16 losses suffered by the Lakers over the course of this season. But Tuesday, the Lakers may have set a new bar. They went into Dallas facing a Mavs team without Luka Doncic or Kyrie Irving, and playing on the second night of a back-to-back in which they had to travel back to from Memphis to Dallas after losing to the Grizzlies Monday night. Starting center Derek Lively was in foul trouble for much of the game, which is problematic for Dallas since their backup, Daniel Gafford, is on the shelf as well. LA, meanwhile, had a day of rest to think about a disappointing loss in Houston Sunday evening, and even got some reinforcements in the form of Gabe Vincent, who returned to the lineup after missing games with an oblique injury. And by beating Dallas, the Lakers could put a little space between themselves and a key competitor in the Western Conference.And yet, the Lakers lost, 118-97. When people question how good the Lakers are, and whether or not Rob Pelinka ought to be investing what's left of the team's prime assets in this season, it's games like this that give them pause. Good teams do not lose this game. They may not play great, they might hit some rocky points, but in the end, they win the game. (Really good teams knock Dallas out early, and never let them get confident, but let's walk before we run.) So if you're Pelinka, how do you react to nights like this? Can you believe that the Lakers are capable of enough consistency to push through the late stretch of the season, then into multiple rounds of playoff basketball, with enough high-end consistency to make an "all in" move seem like a reasonable gamble? There is an excellent chance that at the end of the year, the Lakers will see the standings and point to this game as a reason something more favorable didn't happen. It's possible, too, that it could be a reason the team doesn't go big at the deadline. HOSTS: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT 1: Horrible, horrible loss. SEGMENT 2: Nobody stepped up to get the job done, and the defense was really bad. SEGMENT 3: It starts with the stars - 39 points from LeBron and AD? That's not enough.
