  • Giannis Antetokounmpo, Future Laker? (Spoiler Alert: It's Highly Unlikely)

    Giannis Antetokounmpo, Future Laker? (Spoiler Alert: It's Highly Unlikely)
    May 8 2025
    The rumors are already percolating! Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bucks superstar, NBA champion, is thought to, perhaps, be on the trade block. And, of course, should he decide he wants out of Milwaukee, there are reports that the Lakers would be among his desired locations. So let's start with the first part, first. Is it really possible Giannis could actually leave Milwaukee? Yes, it is. The Bucks are in deep, deep trouble around their roster, the salary cap/luxury tax and trade assets. They were going to be in a very tough spot even before Damian Lillard, well into his 30s, tore his Achilles in the first round of the playoffs. So it actually does make sense that Giannis might see the writing on the wall and ask to leave, and for the Bucks to decide it really is in the best interests of the franchise to oblige him. As for the "play for the Lakers" part? That's a lot more complicated. Like, damn near impossible unless the Lakers somehow figure out how to morph Bucks GM Jon Horst into NIco Harrison. Meanwhile, is there anything JJ Redick can learn from watching how Steve Kerr handled Game 1 for the Warriors against Minnesota? HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: Giannis, leaving Milwaukee? SEGMENT 2: Why Giannis to LA is a no-go. SEGMENT 3: JJ and subs and trust.

  • Rob Pelinka Gets Votes for Executive of the Year. Are You Feeling More Confident In Him?

    Rob Pelinka Gets Votes for Executive of the Year. Are You Feeling More Confident In Him?
    May 7 2025
    JJ Redick finished sixth in Coach of the Year voting, and now the guy who hired him matched it in Executive of the Year voting. Lakers GM Rob Pelinka had his highest finish since joining the team, after a notable year that started with zero action in the summer (like, seriously, nothing) and finished with a significant trade for Dorian Finney-Smith and then the NBA-altering deal for Luka Dončić. So when you put it all together, did Pelinka deserve the recognition that came with the voting? (For the record, OKC's Sam Presti rightly won the thing.) Did he have a good year? How much credit does Pelinka deserve for the Dončić trade? And, critically, how much more confidence should Lakers fans have in him to do the very, very hard work of putting a championship team around Luka? Pelinka has been given two gifts - first in a generational superstar entering his prime - and second for the clarity that converting to a Luka-centric organization provides. But that doesn't mean building a winner will be easy. HOSTS: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT 1: Pelinka gets some EotY love. SEGMENT 2: How good was Pelinka's season overall? SEGMENT 3: The Summer (for) Luka begins... and includes international play. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Amazon Fire TV Stick 4kDid you know your Fire TV is also an Xbox?
