FULL: "He can't keep getting away with this" Feb 26, 2026

Show notes

Mere hours after recording one of his angriest pods of the year, Anthony is joined by Harrison to discuss the direction of the team for the rest of this season and to gauge their faith in this front office as it will eventually embark on the latest most critical offseason in recent Lakers history.

PART 1: Will the Lakers let go of the rope? Feb 26, 2026

Show notes

The Lakers are kinda/sorta known for letting games get out of hand. After the front office has indicated it doesn't believe in this group and keeps talking about what it's going to do with all the cap space it'll get by having so many of these players leave, the question does need to be asked: Are we heading towards a late-season collapse?

PART 2: It's probably best for all involved if LeBron steps aside after this season Feb 26, 2026

Show notes

Anthony and Harrison discuss some potential outcomes for this season, which leads to a discussion about LeBron. Anthony makes an admission: He's ready for everyone to just move on. We're done here.

FULL: Anthony unleashes on a Lakers org that needs to hear it; Andy Kamenetzky on Rob Pelinka; Q&A Feb 25, 2026

Show notes

The Lakers lost in brutal fashion. Anthony let's it rip as a result. He plays a conversation recorded earlier with Andy Kamenetzky (Locked on Lakers, ESPNLA Radio) about Rob Pelinka, then answers questions from the live audience -- which was PISSED after that game.

PART 1: Lakers did not, indeed, bounce back Feb 25, 2026

Show notes

Anthony shares his frustration from this game, which highlighted all that bothers him about this current iteration of the Lakers. He then throws to a conversation recorded earlier with Andy Kamenetzky about Rob Pelinka.

PART 2: "Clock's ticking, buddy" Feb 25, 2026

Show notes

The Lakers are once again an unserious team heading into the playoffs. Rob Pelinka needs to fix that this summer, as Anthony and Andy explain. Anthony voices concern from fans that are nervous about the lack accountability Rob has faced so far.

PART 3: Will this summer finally be any different? Feb 25, 2026

Show notes

Anthony and Andy continue their conversation by explaining why at least Andy thinks this offseason will finally be the transaction window we see the Lakers commit to building a contender. Or else.

PART 4: "You pray up" Feb 25, 2026

Show notes

Anthony answers questions from the audience but also takes time to explain, with religion as an example, why the Lakers lack culture to the extent that they do.

FULL: Lakers need to change their approach to the center spot Feb 24, 2026

Show notes

The Lakers as an organization haven't valued centers outside of Anthony Davis. Since Luka Doncic arrived, he's been asked to turn below average-centers into good ones, but Anthony thinks the Lakers need to give him a good center he can make elite. He makes that point, picks up on the Austin conversation, wonders if it's time to shift to a younger rotation, then answers all the questions he can.

PART 1: The major change the Lakers HAVE to make to roster building Feb 24, 2026

Show notes

Under Rob Pelinka, the Lakers have typically built rosters that force stars to be great so as to turn role players into much better versions of themselves. Anthony thinks that approach has led to imbalanced players and is responsible for the complete lack of two-way impact guys.
