    FULL: Khobi Price on glass ceilings, rotation decisions, trade options

    Anthony welcomes Khobi Price (SCNG, OC Register) to discuss the glass ceiling the Lakers keep bumping up against. Is there a way to improve the collective athleticism in the Lakers rotation internally? Or is a trade required to address this clear deficiency? The guys talk this, the starting lineup and the Giannis trade rumors that hang over everything.

    FULL: Lakers get blown out; Austin struggles; the starters gotta go

    The Lakers lost in an all too familiar way, which has Anthony pulling out his hair for having to have the same conversation all over again. Please, JJ Redick, we're begging. Change up the starters.

    PART 2: Alright let's talk about Austin (again)

    Austin struggled against length and athleticism again, so the familiar criticisms popped back up. Anthony addresses those criticisms (and doesn't necessarily disagree), but thinks Reaves' struggles are indicative of a flawed roster moreso than of Reaves' own shortcomings being some fatal flaw as a player.

    PART 3: A couple final thoughts on Rich Paul's championship org takes

    Anthony answers some questions from the live audience and, in doing so, addresses Rich Paul's comments about the Lakers not being a championship organization. Those comments rang a little hollow seeing as LeBron and his camp butt heads with Pat Riley and the championship organization that the Heat was.

    FULL: Anthony and Harrison riff on Rich Paul's comments

    Seems like a bad idea!

    PART 2: Why do people care more about what Rich Paul says about LeBron-Reaves than LeBron talking about Reaves?

    LeBron spoke about Austin Reaves on his own podcast today and somehow that message (as well as James' own actions while playing with Reaves) is being ignored completely because it's more fun to dramatize what James might think about Reaves based on what his agent said on a podcast.

    Anthony was traveling and had a bunch of pent-up takes he needed to fire off coming off that great Lakers road trip. This was a blast to record.
