    PART 3: How else can the Lakers add another big?

    Anthony explains why it makes sense for the Lakers to try to land a big via one of their two-way contracts but also gives context on what that is trickier now than it was even a couple seasons ago.

    HOOK: Likes, dislikes, surprises and lessons

    Anthony does this thing with content that he likes, where he asks himself to find things he likes, dislikes, is surprised by and learns over the course of that content. He brings that exercise to this episode with Pete to discuss Lakers preseason to this point.

    PART 2: How is ball-handling STILL an issue?

    Collin Sexton has yet to play and Anthony has noticed his absence a little too much. The guys discuss the ball control from players not named Austin or Luka and how critical Sexton has already become.

    PART 3: Are fans falling for the fallacy of novelty?

    The Lakers have started off preseason in fairly impressive fashion, all things considered. A listener still was curious whether some of the new additions are getting a little extra praise because of how new they are to the team.

    FULL: Is Lakers' win total o/u too low? Early preseason lessons; What we want to know ASAP

    Anthony and Harrison laugh at how annoyed Philly media already is with some of the extra stuff that comes with LeBron. They segue back to the Lakers by discussing how Vegas seems to feel about the team this season. Why is there such a disconnect with that and the preseason vibes/hype? The guys then discuss what they'd like to know about this team ASAP and wrap with a quick Q&A. Oh and Lanterns thoughts.

    FULL: Anthony and Raj ignore that Warriors game to talk Lakers preseason goals

    The Lakers didn't play basically anyone in their second preseason game. It went about as you'd expect against a Warriors team that did play people. So, rather than spend time thinking about that game, the guys talk about what they've learned about the Lakers' intentions for this season by way of training camp and their first preseason game.

    PART 1: Congrats to Raj!

    Anthony and Raj eventually are going to get to the game, but first, Anthony tells Raj how proud he is for taking ownership of his content, as un-condescendingly as he could. Then, well, yeah, that game happened.

    PART 3: Are we going to get a Lakers dress rehearsal?

    The Lakers have played one preseason game without Austin Reaves and Walker Kessler, but with Luka Doncic. They played the second without... well, almost everyone. Anthony and Raj take a look at the preseason schedule and try to find if and when we'll see something closer to a full rotation -- and why it matters that we do.

    FULL: Lakers kick off preseason with a butt-kicking

    After months and months of theorizing about this Lakers roster, we finally got to see it in actuality. Anthony loved what he saw and explains why. He uses this game (disclaimers about the Kangz notwithstanding) to forecast the style of basketball JJ Redick envisions for the Lakers, how he plans to use the wings and the role youth is going to play. He wraps with a quick Q&A.

    PART 1: What a perfect start to the preseason

    The Lakers beat the crap out of the Kings. Yeah, the Kings are going to suck, but the Lakers approached this game a lot more seriously than in years past. There's value in noting that.

    PART 2: Ah, the joy of productive youth

    Adou Thiero. Cam Carr. Bronny James. Anthony went into last night with high hopes from that group and was pleased to see those expectations met. He discusses that, wing by committee and wraps with some questions from the live audience.

    FULL: Mailbag!... Kind of

    Anthony opens with a couple segments he thought up on the fly because of some late arriving questions, but we finally arrived at a fun episode nonetheless.
