FULL: BREAKING - The bank Jun 24, 2026

Show notes

Austin got PAID. Cam Carr is legit. The Lakers still need a center. Can they find one in the second round, if they get there?

PART 1: Austin's new deal; Lakers trying for second round; Cam Carr scouting report Jun 24, 2026

Show notes

The Lakers and Austin Reaves are in agreement on a four-year max. Anthony breaks it down, as well as the differing information he has on the timeline compared to what's out there nationally. Everything happened so fast last night that Anthony hadn't given a full Cam Carr scouting report, so he does that.

PART 2: Latest on Lakers' search for their center; Q&A Jun 24, 2026

Show notes

The Lakers are still canvassing the league for the starting center upgrade they know they need. Anthony discusses that, then takes questions from the live audience.

FULL: Lakers' search for a center continues; LeBron, Austin updates; iHart??? CAM CARR Jun 24, 2026

Show notes

Anthony and Raj figured this would be a nice, one hour trip through the NBA draft, but boy did ESPN and Adam Silver laugh at those plans. Still, it was all worth it in the end, as the Lakers somehow wound up with the exact player Anthony hardly even dared to hope for.

PART 1: Draft tablesetter; Center market isn't great Jun 24, 2026

Show notes

Anthony and Raj briefly discuss how they thought the Lakers would use the pick at the onset of the draft. They also run through some of the options the Lakers still have at the center position but how tough the summer has been in that regard to this point.

PART 2: Anthony and Raj on the Giannis deal; LeBron James update Jun 24, 2026

Show notes

The Lakers believed Giannis would consider them an option and, as it turns out, weren't on the list of teams he'd extend with. Anthony details an intel issue that keeps popping up. He then offers up the latest that he's heard about LeBron James' future with the Lakers.

PART 3: Why restricted free agency might be too big a gamble Jun 24, 2026

Show notes

Walker Kessler, Payton Watson, Jalen Duren, Tari Eason... All guys who make a lot of sense for the Lakers. Anthony explains why the risk in signing them is probably too much to take lightly for the Lakers.

PART 4: Jaylen Brown? LAKERS SELECT CAM CARR Jun 24, 2026

Show notes

Anthony and Raj have a discussion about Jaylen Brown as a potential target, then FINALLY get to react to the Lakers making their pick in this year's first round... and Anthony was PUMPED. Cam Carr is legit and exactly the type of player the Lakers need on the perimeter.

FULL: NBA Draft eve mega pod with Harrison Jun 23, 2026

Show notes

Honestly, buckle in. This one goes ALL over the place.

PART 1: Did the Lakers miscalculate their Giannis plan? Jun 23, 2026

Show notes

Giannis hadn't been traded when they recorded this (he eventually was dealt, to be clear), and the Lakers never factored seriously into his pursuit. What should Lakers fans make of that?
