00:00:02,270 --> 00:00:04,120



3
00:00:02,280 --> 00:00:06,160
the Hornets have contacted the league

4
00:00:04,110 --> 00:00:06,160

disputing the Lakers failed phys guddled

7
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:10,840
their trade OT acquired Williams to give

8
00:00:08,350 --> 00:00:10,840



9
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:13,320
new star Luca donic a vertical threat

00:00:10,830 --> 00:00:13,320



11
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:15,080
but sent him back after the physical and

12
00:00:13,310 --> 00:00:15,080



13
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:16,359
that's feels like that's what's missing

14
00:00:15,070 --> 00:00:16,359



15
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:18,240
right now when you look at LeBron and

16
00:00:16,349 --> 00:00:18,240



17
00:00:16,359 --> 00:00:20,359
the Lakers especially after last night's

18
00:00:18,230 --> 00:00:20,359



19
00:00:18,240 --> 00:00:22,400
performance here NBA Insider and that is

20
00:00:20,349 --> 00:00:22,400



21
00:00:20,359 --> 00:00:24,160
senior Insider Shams chania with us now

22
00:00:22,390 --> 00:00:24,160



23
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:28,000
Shams where do things stand with the

24
00:00:24,150 --> 00:00:28,000



25
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:30,679
Hornets dispute here over Mark Williams

26
00:00:27,990 --> 00:00:30,679



27
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:32,119
physical Kevin the Hornets from my

28
00:00:30,669 --> 00:00:32,119



29
00:00:30,679 --> 00:00:34,160
understanding they remain in contact

30
00:00:32,109 --> 00:00:34,160



31
00:00:32,119 --> 00:00:35,879
with the league office essentially

32
00:00:34,150 --> 00:00:35,879



33
00:00:34,160 --> 00:00:38,120
questioning the validity of the Lakers

34
00:00:35,869 --> 00:00:38,120



35
00:00:35,879 --> 00:00:40,000
failed physical exam and weighing

36
00:00:38,110 --> 00:00:40,000



37
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:42,039
potential options where they can

38
00:00:39,990 --> 00:00:42,039



39
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,399
potentially appeal this situation as I

40
00:00:42,029 --> 00:00:43,399



41
00:00:42,039 --> 00:00:45,960
reported over the weekend the Lakers

42
00:00:43,389 --> 00:00:45,960



43
00:00:43,399 --> 00:00:47,879
failed Mark Williams on his physical

44
00:00:45,950 --> 00:00:47,879



45
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:50,399
they found multiple issues from what I'm

46
00:00:47,869 --> 00:00:50,399



47
00:00:47,879 --> 00:00:51,600
told not related to his back however so

48
00:00:50,389 --> 00:00:51,600



49
00:00:50,399 --> 00:00:54,039
the Hornets and Lakers they're on

50
00:00:51,590 --> 00:00:54,039



51
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:56,039
opposite ends of where this issue stands

52
00:00:54,029 --> 00:00:56,039



53
00:00:54,039 --> 00:00:58,320
in The Hornet's eyes Mark Williams is

54
00:00:56,029 --> 00:00:58,320



55
00:00:56,039 --> 00:01:00,440
healthy he has a long potential career

56
00:00:58,310 --> 00:01:00,440



57
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:03,039
ahead and the Lakers clearly feel like

58
00:01:00,430 --> 00:01:03,039



59
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:05,280
they found a couple of issues in that

60
00:01:03,029 --> 00:01:05,280



61
00:01:03,039 --> 00:01:07,759
physical exam but in the meantime Kevin

62
00:01:05,270 --> 00:01:07,759



63
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:11,040
sources told me that the Lakers are

64
00:01:07,749 --> 00:01:11,040



65
00:01:07,759 --> 00:01:13,280
waving Christian Wood to sign Alex Len

66
00:01:11,030 --> 00:01:13,280



67
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,880
free 7 foot free agent center that's

68
00:01:13,270 --> 00:01:14,880



69
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,840
going to give them some depth they've

70
00:01:14,870 --> 00:01:16,840



71
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:19,640
been with just one Center since this

72
00:01:16,830 --> 00:01:19,640



73
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:21,439
failed test and since uh the trade

74
00:01:19,630 --> 00:01:21,439



75
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:24,320

76
00:01:21,429 --> 00:01:24,320



77
00:01:21,439 --> 00:01:26,159
Alex Len he's played uh he's in his 12th

78
00:01:24,310 --> 00:01:26,159



79
00:01:24,320 --> 00:01:27,759
NBA season he will join them on their

80
00:01:26,149 --> 00:01:27,759



81
00:01:26,159 --> 00:01:29,600
front line and that's important you just

82
00:01:27,749 --> 00:01:29,600



83
00:01:27,759 --> 00:01:31,159
need size you need some matchups you

84
00:01:29,590 --> 00:01:31,159



85
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:33,240
need six fouls you need somebody that

86
00:01:31,149 --> 00:01:33,240



87
00:01:31,159 --> 00:01:35,320
can get rebounds and Len trying to fill

88
00:01:33,230 --> 00:01:35,320



89
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,920
that in just a limited amount of minutes

90
00:01:35,310 --> 00:01:36,920



91
00:01:35,320 --> 00:01:39,040
we will see how that plays out now you

92
00:01:36,910 --> 00:01:39,040



93
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:41,119
reported earlier today Brandon Ingram

94
00:01:39,030 --> 00:01:41,119



95
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,759
secured an extension with the Raptors

96
00:01:41,109 --> 00:01:42,759



97
00:01:41,119 --> 00:01:45,399
why were they comfortable with that new

98
00:01:42,749 --> 00:01:45,399



99
00:01:42,759 --> 00:01:48,040
deal after trading for

100
00:01:45,389 --> 00:01:48,040



101
00:01:45,399 --> 00:01:50,840
Ingram Kevin just under a week after

102
00:01:48,030 --> 00:01:50,840



103
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:53,119
they traded for him 3 years $120 million

104
00:01:50,830 --> 00:01:53,119



105
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:55,880
extension he's 27 years old he's going

106
00:01:53,109 --> 00:01:55,880



107
00:01:53,119 --> 00:01:58,920
to hit potentially free agency again in

108
00:01:55,870 --> 00:01:58,920



109
00:01:55,880 --> 00:02:01,479
2027 before turning 30 years old they

110
00:01:58,910 --> 00:02:01,479



111
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:03,799
View Brandon as a perfect fit next to

112
00:02:01,469 --> 00:02:03,799



113
00:02:01,479 --> 00:02:05,880
Scotty Barnes a playmaker a scorer that

114
00:02:03,789 --> 00:02:05,880



115
00:02:03,799 --> 00:02:08,160
can compliment Barnes as well as Emanuel

116
00:02:05,870 --> 00:02:08,160



117
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:10,239
quickley RJ Barrett they really feel

118
00:02:08,150 --> 00:02:10,239



119
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:12,959
like his best days are are ahead it's

120
00:02:10,229 --> 00:02:12,959



121
00:02:10,239 --> 00:02:15,120
been an injury riddled few seasons for

122
00:02:12,949 --> 00:02:15,120



123
00:02:12,959 --> 00:02:16,840
Brandon Ingram in New Orleans he wanted

124
00:02:15,110 --> 00:02:16,840



125
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,879
a fresh start for my understanding he

126
00:02:16,830 --> 00:02:18,879



127
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,640
gets that in Toronto and now they're

128
00:02:18,869 --> 00:02:20,640



129
00:02:18,879 --> 00:02:23,879
going to try to continue to build around

130
00:02:20,630 --> 00:02:23,879



131
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:26,120
Scotty Barnes with the Raptors okay this

132
00:02:23,869 --> 00:02:26,120



133
00:02:23,879 --> 00:02:28,519
season in only 18 games due to injury

134
00:02:26,110 --> 00:02:28,519



135
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:31,319
Ingram averaging over 22 points per game

136
00:02:28,509 --> 00:02:31,319



137
00:02:28,519 --> 00:02:32,959
and injuries injury Ser injuries no

138
00:02:31,309 --> 00:02:32,959



139
00:02:31,319 --> 00:02:34,720
one's dealing with more of them right

140
00:02:32,949 --> 00:02:34,720



141
00:02:32,959 --> 00:02:37,480
now than the Mavericks let's get some

142
00:02:34,710 --> 00:02:37,480



143
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:40,800
updates here right now with this

144
00:02:37,470 --> 00:02:40,800



145
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:43,040
team Kevin Anthony Davis the biggest of

146
00:02:40,790 --> 00:02:43,040



147
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:46,760
them all the Mavericks will have a

148
00:02:43,030 --> 00:02:46,760



149
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:49,720
cautious rehab for ad and I'm told the

150
00:02:46,750 --> 00:02:49,720



151
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:52,360
expectation is that Davis will need

152
00:02:49,710 --> 00:02:52,360



153
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:55,879
Rehabilitation for the coming weeks on

154
00:02:52,350 --> 00:02:55,879



155
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:58,000
that adductor injury and just a brutal

156
00:02:55,869 --> 00:02:58,000



157
00:02:55,879 --> 00:03:00,360
blow for the Mavericks because this is a

158
00:02:57,990 --> 00:03:00,360



159
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:02,720
player who just returned

160
00:03:00,350 --> 00:03:02,720



161
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,560
from an abst strain in his Mavericks

162
00:03:02,710 --> 00:03:04,560



163
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:07,519
debut over the weekend and he looked

164
00:03:04,550 --> 00:03:07,519



165
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:10,319
absolutely dominant for the Mavericks

166
00:03:07,509 --> 00:03:10,319



167
00:03:07,519 --> 00:03:12,440
before having this injury on the other

168
00:03:10,309 --> 00:03:12,440



169
00:03:10,319 --> 00:03:14,560
side last night Daniel Gafford their

170
00:03:12,430 --> 00:03:14,560



171
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,400
starting center uh I'm told he had an

172
00:03:14,550 --> 00:03:16,400



173
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,360

00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,760
still waiting to see exactly the

176
00:03:18,350 --> 00:03:20,760

181
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:28,720
hopeful because he walked without uh

182
00:03:26,710 --> 00:03:28,720

00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:30,280

00:03:54,879 --> 00:03:57,560
what's going on between the Hornets and

210
00:03:56,110 --> 00:03:57,560



211
00:03:56,120 --> 00:04:00,200
the

212
00:03:57,550 --> 00:04:00,200



213
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:02,400
league Malik the Hornets are in contact

214
00:04:00,190 --> 00:04:02,400



215
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:05,400
with the league of office to explore

216
00:04:02,390 --> 00:04:05,400



217
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:08,360
disputing the Lakers failing uh Mark

218
00:04:05,390 --> 00:04:08,360



219
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:10,799
williams' physical exam essentially the

220
00:04:08,350 --> 00:04:10,799



221
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:13,200
Hornets are questioning the validity of

222
00:04:10,789 --> 00:04:13,200



223
00:04:10,799 --> 00:04:15,280
the failed physical exam conducted by

224
00:04:13,190 --> 00:04:15,280



225
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:17,639
the Lakers and weighing potential

226
00:04:15,270 --> 00:04:17,639



227
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,560
options to appeal as we reported over

228
00:04:17,629 --> 00:04:19,560



229
00:04:17,639 --> 00:04:21,560
the weekend the Lakers failed Williams

230
00:04:19,550 --> 00:04:21,560



231
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,199
on his physical exam after acquiring him

232
00:04:21,550 --> 00:04:23,199



233
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,600
in a trade for Dalton connect a first

234
00:04:23,189 --> 00:04:25,600



235
00:04:23,199 --> 00:04:27,520
round pick and a pick Swap and they

236
00:04:25,590 --> 00:04:27,520



237
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:30,320
found multiple issues from my

238
00:04:27,510 --> 00:04:30,320



239
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,880
understanding in the physical exam not

240
00:04:30,310 --> 00:04:32,880



241
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,960
related to his back so where we stand

242
00:04:32,870 --> 00:04:34,960



243
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:37,199
here are the Hornets and Lakers clearly

244
00:04:34,950 --> 00:04:37,199



245
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,680
on opposite ends of where this is all at

246
00:04:37,189 --> 00:04:38,680



247
00:04:37,199 --> 00:04:40,680
the Hornets believe that Williams is

248
00:04:38,670 --> 00:04:40,680



249
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,680
healthy that he has a long career ahead

250
00:04:40,670 --> 00:04:42,680



251
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:44,080
of them but clearly the Lakers felt like

252
00:04:42,670 --> 00:04:44,080



253
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,919
they found something in there that gave

254
00:04:44,070 --> 00:04:45,919



255
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,960
them pause failing the physical and

256
00:04:45,909 --> 00:04:47,960



257
00:04:45,919 --> 00:04:49,720
resending and nixing the Traer side of

258
00:04:47,950 --> 00:04:49,720



259
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,680
all of this I think the question is now

260
00:04:49,710 --> 00:04:51,680



261
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:54,479
that the deadline is passed what other

262
00:04:51,670 --> 00:04:54,479



263
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:56,720
options do they have at Center here

264
00:04:54,469 --> 00:04:56,720



265
00:04:54,479 --> 00:04:58,560
Shams I'm told the Lakers are pursuing

266
00:04:56,710 --> 00:04:58,560



267
00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:01,160
multiple big men in the marketplace

268
00:04:58,550 --> 00:05:01,160



269
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:03,080
right now they know they need some size

270
00:05:01,150 --> 00:05:03,080



271
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:05,479
Jackson Hayes right now is their only

272
00:05:03,070 --> 00:05:05,479



273
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:08,080
positional Center I I would expect the

274
00:05:05,469 --> 00:05:08,080



275
00:05:05,479 --> 00:05:10,400
Lakers to move on a potential big man in

276
00:05:08,070 --> 00:05:10,400

00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,440
their

414
00:07:44,589 --> 00:15:29,178



415
00:07:44,599 --> 00:07:49,080
availability yeah certainly uh Lebron

416
00:07:47,629 --> 00:07:49,080



417
00:07:47,639 --> 00:07:50,840
exited the game in the fourth quarter

418
00:07:49,070 --> 00:07:50,840



419
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:53,039
with about 11 minutes to go the Lakers

420
00:07:50,830 --> 00:07:53,039



421
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,960
were blowing the Jazz out he went to the

422
00:07:53,029 --> 00:07:54,960



423
00:07:53,039 --> 00:07:57,720
back tunnel appeared to be stretching

424
00:07:54,950 --> 00:07:57,720



425
00:07:54,960 --> 00:08:00,120
out his lower abdomen a source familiar

426
00:07:57,710 --> 00:08:00,120



427
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,960
with LeBron's injury status told me he's

428
00:08:00,110 --> 00:08:01,960



429
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,120
good and when he was leaving the locker

430
00:08:01,950 --> 00:08:04,120



431
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:06,000
room last night he didn't speak to the

432
00:08:04,110 --> 00:08:06,000



433
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,919
Press but had a brief conversation with

434
00:08:05,990 --> 00:08:07,919



435
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,560
a couple of us reporters and said see in

436
00:08:07,909 --> 00:08:10,560



437
00:08:07,919 --> 00:08:12,479
Salt Lake City that combined with JJ

438
00:08:10,550 --> 00:08:12,479



439
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:14,280
reck's message makes me believe that

440
00:08:12,469 --> 00:08:14,280



441
00:08:12,479 --> 00:08:16,400
we're going to see him on the court so

442
00:08:14,270 --> 00:08:16,400



443
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,960
the Lakers can try to finish off this

444
00:08:16,390 --> 00:08:17,960



445
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,759
momentum they've been building leading

446
00:08:17,950 --> 00:08:19,759



447
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:22,400
up to the all-star break they've won 12

448
00:08:19,749 --> 00:08:22,400



449
00:08:19,759 --> 00:08:23,639
out of 14 they can make it 13 out of 15

450
00:08:22,390 --> 00:08:23,639



451
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,639
they're number three in the Western

452
00:08:23,629 --> 00:08:25,639



453
00:08:23,639 --> 00:08:27,360
Conference standings and based on what

454
00:08:25,629 --> 00:08:27,360



455
00:08:25,639 --> 00:08:30,319
JJ said I think we're going to see Luca

456
00:08:27,350 --> 00:08:30,319



457
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:32,279
dones out there again only with still a

458
00:08:30,309 --> 00:08:32,279



459
00:08:30,319 --> 00:08:34,719
minutes restriction he played 24 minutes

460
00:08:32,269 --> 00:08:34,719



461
00:08:32,279 --> 00:08:36,880
in his debut I'm told that minute range

462
00:08:34,709 --> 00:08:36,880



463
00:08:34,719 --> 00:08:38,240
will be anywhere in the 25 to 30 minute

464
00:08:36,870 --> 00:08:38,240



465
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,560
range yeah You' have to imagine that

466
00:08:38,230 --> 00:08:39,560



467
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,839
part of the reason that he didn't reach

468
00:08:39,550 --> 00:08:41,839



469
00:08:39,560 --> 00:08:44,000
that 30 minutes restriction was because

470
00:08:41,829 --> 00:08:44,000



471
00:08:41,839 --> 00:08:45,880
it was a blowout game we hope to see

472
00:08:43,990 --> 00:08:45,880



473
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:48,000
both of these stars on the floor in Utah

474
00:08:45,870 --> 00:08:48,000



475
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:50,399
Dave thank you so very much we haven't

476
00:08:47,990 --> 00:08:50,399



477
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:53,080
seen Luca and we haven't seen the Lakers

478
00:08:50,389 --> 00:08:53,080



479
00:08:50,399 --> 00:08:55,399
rather play this consistently well since

480
00:08:53,070 --> 00:08:55,399



481
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:57,279
their 2020 Championship that was the

482
00:08:55,389 --> 00:08:57,279



483
00:08:55,399 --> 00:08:59,600
last time the Lakers had multiple

484
00:08:57,269 --> 00:08:59,600



485
00:08:57,279 --> 00:09:01,480
six-game winning streaks in a season

486
00:08:59,590 --> 00:09:01,480



487
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:04,160
that was that 2020 campaign that Danny

488
00:09:01,470 --> 00:09:04,160



489
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:06,240
you are very familiar with my friend

490
00:09:04,150 --> 00:09:06,240



491
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:08,839
here was Luca when he was asked just how

492
00:09:06,230 --> 00:09:08,839



493
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:11,279
dangerous this team can

494
00:09:08,829 --> 00:09:11,279



495
00:09:08,839 --> 00:09:13,519
be very dangerous I think the ball were

496
00:09:11,269 --> 00:09:13,519



497
00:09:11,279 --> 00:09:15,760
moving was moving very well offensive

498
00:09:13,509 --> 00:09:15,760



499
00:09:13,519 --> 00:09:18,000
end uh I think we can lock down a lot of

500
00:09:15,750 --> 00:09:18,000



501
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,480
a lot of players uh so I was just happy

502
00:09:17,990 --> 00:09:19,480



503
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,600
to be on the Coro

504
00:09:19,470 --> 00:09:21,600



505
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,399
game very dangerous all right those are

506
00:09:21,590 --> 00:09:23,399



507
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,120
Luca's adjectives so UD what about you

508
00:09:23,389 --> 00:09:25,120



509
00:09:23,399 --> 00:09:28,320
fill in the blank for me this Lakers

510
00:09:25,110 --> 00:09:28,320



511
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:30,600
team as currently constructed could be

512
00:09:28,310 --> 00:09:30,600



513
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:32,160
in the Western Conference finals oh I I

514
00:09:30,590 --> 00:09:32,160



515
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,760
was very encouraged by seeing them play

516
00:09:32,150 --> 00:09:33,760



517
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,200
small ball last night I was very

518
00:09:33,750 --> 00:09:35,200



519
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,959
encouraged by seeing Austin Reeves and

520
00:09:35,190 --> 00:09:36,959



521
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,240
the others continue to keep going and

522
00:09:36,949 --> 00:09:39,240



523
00:09:36,959 --> 00:09:41,040
I'm also encouraged just focusing on

524
00:09:39,230 --> 00:09:41,040



525
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,680
what goes forward because nobody plays

526
00:09:41,030 --> 00:09:42,680



527
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,240
really big basketball anymore nobody's

528
00:09:42,670 --> 00:09:44,240



529
00:09:42,680 --> 00:09:45,680
going into the bigs now if they see

530
00:09:44,230 --> 00:09:45,680



531
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:49,200
Joker they might have a issue but

532
00:09:45,670 --> 00:09:49,200



533
00:09:45,680 --> 00:09:51,120
leading up to that they know that to I'm

534
00:09:49,190 --> 00:09:51,120



535
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:53,000
encouraged with that small lineup yeah

536
00:09:51,110 --> 00:09:53,000



537
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,600
based on matchups they could get it to

538
00:09:52,990 --> 00:09:54,600



539
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,839
Western Conference Finals I'm not too

540
00:09:54,590 --> 00:09:56,839



541
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,959
sold yet the Utah Jazz it's hard to

542
00:09:56,829 --> 00:09:58,959



543
00:09:56,839 --> 00:10:01,640
grade that game but offensively look

544
00:09:58,949 --> 00:10:01,640



545
00:09:58,959 --> 00:10:03,680
very explosive love what they can do AR

546
00:10:01,630 --> 00:10:03,680



547
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,720
you know gab Vincent the others ruy all

548
00:10:03,670 --> 00:10:04,720



549
00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:06,279
these guys are you know licking their

550
00:10:04,710 --> 00:10:06,279



551
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:08,120
chops getting excited about you know the

552
00:10:06,269 --> 00:10:08,120



553
00:10:06,279 --> 00:10:09,680
opportunities they have to come so

554
00:10:08,110 --> 00:10:09,680



555
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:12,880
offensively look great defensively is

556
00:10:09,670 --> 00:10:12,880



557
00:10:09,680 --> 00:10:14,079
where it said there's some scul like you

558
00:10:12,870 --> 00:10:14,079



559
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,959
know so we're trying to see what they

560
00:10:14,069 --> 00:10:15,959



561
00:10:14,079 --> 00:10:17,720
can do and what they can guard on that

562
00:10:15,949 --> 00:10:17,720



563
00:10:15,959 --> 00:10:19,920
end of the floor so I'm not sure what

564
00:10:17,710 --> 00:10:19,920



565
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,120
the blank was there but I'm maybe unsure

566
00:10:19,910 --> 00:10:21,120



567
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:24,000
this Lakers team is currently

568
00:10:21,110 --> 00:10:24,000



569
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:25,079
constructed is an unfinished there just

570
00:10:23,990 --> 00:10:25,079



571
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,600
I'm going to work on your fill in the

572
00:10:25,069 --> 00:10:26,600



573
00:10:25,079 --> 00:10:27,880
blank here Danny what about you Brian

574
00:10:26,590 --> 00:10:27,880



575
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:31,320
your fill in the blank the Lakers team

576
00:10:27,870 --> 00:10:31,320



577
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,320
is currently constructed K be

578
00:10:31,389 --> 00:21:02,778



579
00:10:31,399 --> 00:10:34,880
I think they can be a first round

580
00:10:32,670 --> 00:10:34,880



581
00:10:32,680 --> 00:10:36,800
playoff winner I think they really

582
00:10:34,870 --> 00:10:36,800



583
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,800
playing well over the last month

584
00:10:36,790 --> 00:10:37,800



585
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:41,399
especially

586
00:10:37,790 --> 00:10:41,399



587
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:42,959
defensively um I I like that uh Austin

588
00:10:41,389 --> 00:10:42,959



589
00:10:41,399 --> 00:10:44,639
Reeves is playing some of the best

590
00:10:42,949 --> 00:10:44,639



591
00:10:42,959 --> 00:10:46,800
basketball we've ever seen and it looked

592
00:10:44,629 --> 00:10:46,800



593
00:10:44,639 --> 00:10:49,079
like the game plan last night was to

594
00:10:46,790 --> 00:10:49,079



595
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:51,040
keep him involved I think as UD said

596
00:10:49,069 --> 00:10:51,040



597
00:10:49,079 --> 00:10:52,959
earlier him getting over 20 points last

598
00:10:51,030 --> 00:10:52,959



599
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,760
night keeping that streak going was

600
00:10:52,949 --> 00:10:54,760



601
00:10:52,959 --> 00:10:56,399
important it's just going to really come

602
00:10:54,750 --> 00:10:56,399



603
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,160
down to the matchups I I I think there

604
00:10:56,389 --> 00:10:58,160



605
00:10:56,399 --> 00:10:59,760
are teams in the west that the Lakers

606
00:10:58,150 --> 00:10:59,760



607
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,639
are going to be able to handle but if a

608
00:10:59,750 --> 00:11:01,639



609
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:04,000
team has a lot of size and can punish

610
00:11:01,629 --> 00:11:04,000



611
00:11:01,639 --> 00:11:05,480
them on the inside especially in a seven

612
00:11:03,990 --> 00:11:05,480



613
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,839
game series where you can really game

614
00:11:05,470 --> 00:11:07,839



615
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:10,480
plan I think it's going to be hard I'm

616
00:11:07,829 --> 00:11:10,480



617
00:11:07,839 --> 00:11:11,760
giving the Lakers a pass on expectations

618
00:11:10,470 --> 00:11:11,760



619
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:14,040
for this season I know that's not

620
00:11:11,750 --> 00:11:14,040



621
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:16,279
something that maybe people want to hear

622
00:11:14,030 --> 00:11:16,279



623
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:18,120
their roster is inbalanced it's not

624
00:11:16,269 --> 00:11:18,120



625
00:11:16,279 --> 00:11:20,440
totally their fault the trade fell

626
00:11:18,110 --> 00:11:20,440



627
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,959
through an imbalanced roster that's

628
00:11:20,430 --> 00:11:21,959



629
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,800
going to be sort of rushed together in

630
00:11:21,949 --> 00:11:23,800



631
00:11:21,959 --> 00:11:25,480
the second half of the Season doesn't

632
00:11:23,790 --> 00:11:25,480



633
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,839
typically lead to Leep playoff runs but

634
00:11:25,470 --> 00:11:26,839



635
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,519
I'm not taking anything off the table

636
00:11:26,829 --> 00:11:28,519



637
00:11:26,839 --> 00:11:30,480
really either they're two and a half out

638
00:11:28,509 --> 00:11:30,480



639
00:11:28,519 --> 00:11:32,320
of second right now in the Western

640
00:11:30,470 --> 00:11:32,320



641
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,160
Conference tight it's tight so so was

642
00:11:32,310 --> 00:11:34,160



643
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,920
that technically an answer by Wendy I

644
00:11:34,150 --> 00:11:35,920



645
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,240
I'm still you you get a gold star for

646
00:11:35,910 --> 00:11:37,240



647
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,720
the fill-in the blank I was still trying

648
00:11:37,230 --> 00:11:38,720



649
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,040
to figure out what the blank was for

650
00:11:38,710 --> 00:11:41,040



651
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,800
both Bri win a Playoff round why is that

652
00:11:41,030 --> 00:11:42,800



653
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,160
not an answer that's specifically in the

654
00:11:42,790 --> 00:11:44,160



655
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,120
blank they could they could win a

00:11:44,150 --> 00:11:46,120



657
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,240
