Anthony and Harrison discuss the Lakers hiring their first of two assistant GMs and the nagging questions that have been bugging Anthony. They also discuss the Knicks dominating the Cavs and the impact that might have on LeBron James' offseason.
Anthony and Harrison explain why this is, for the most part, an objectively net-positive for the Lakers. But still, that really annoying voice in the back of their minds just won't shut up about a couple unfortunate truths about what led to this hire... more

Since Ayton & Jaxson clearly aren’t championship centers, how do the Lakers solve that problem? I love Duren and he’s everything Ayton isn’t but is there any way they throw him an offer sheet and Detroit doesn’t match it this summer? It’s been over a year Luka still doesn’t have a viable 5!
Dear Anthony- thanks for the awesome work and the sizzling great western forum. While you were (rightly) critiquing Keep His Job Rob’s endless focus on the horizon I was reminded of this line from Yoda, spoken to Luke, in Empire Strikes Back:
"This one, a long time have I watched. All his life as he looked away, to the future, to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was. Hmm? What he was doing. Hmm. Adventure, ha. Excitement, ha. A Jedi craves not these things. You are reckless!".

Hi Anthony! Been a huge fan of your work for a long time. A few years ago my dad, who is the reason why I am a Laker fan, asked me if there were any Laker podcasts/shows he felt I should listen to and you were the first person I recommended. Now nearly everyday when he and I talk, one of the first things he asks me is if I listened to the lounge. Thank you for giving me something that my dad and I can always connect about. Anyway, my question is do you think the college connection between Bufkin... more
Constantly negative takes. I don't know why he even calls himself a fan. He has written absolutely gross things about Kobe and never has taken accountability about it. Then he fakes tears upon Kobe's death. If you like misinformation and negativity, this is the podcast for you. Absolutely lazy podcaster who doesn't fact check so he consistently gets things wrong. Basically a shock jock.
Love the show and hope you’re doing well. We should have assets similar to the JJJ trade package this summer. Why not chase an up and coming center like Kalel Ware? It sounds like Miami floated him for Giannis discussions so maybe he’s available

A sharp, opinionated Lakers-focused show that often weighs blockbuster rosters and ownership-driven modernization against building depth and value contracts. Frequent discussions center on pursuing star power (notably Giannis) versus depth, the influence of cross-franchise ownership models (Dodgers-style) on front-office decisions, and the evolving use of analytics in a big-market environment. The hosts also tackle realignment chatter, trade mechanics, and the broader economics of assembling a championship roster, with guests and mailbag questions adding perspective on fan sentiment, media narratives, and franchise identity. A standout is the willingness to explore high-variance scenarios, bold ownership-driven strategies, and cross-sport c... more
