Description

No LeBron James, no problem?Well, that would be the hyperbolic retelling of the Lakers' 125-121 OT win over the Spurs. James, who's nursing a sore ankle from a collision during Sunday's game against the Spurs, was definitely missed during the overtime victory, which to put it kindly, wasn't always pretty. But for a team still figuring itself out and missing a large chunk of the roster, beggars can't be choosers. You take what you can get. Plus, there were huge positives, mostly notably the performances from Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook, who put the "super" and "star" in "superstar." Arguably AD's best game this season (35/17/4/4 blocks) and absolutely the high water mark from Westbrook (33/10/8/3 steals, only three turnovers), it was a reminder of why elite talent matters, as well as a promising sign of how Russ can fit in with his new team.So how did this win happen, and what does it mean for the Lakers moving forward? Brian was out for a family event, so Andy enlisted the services of former NBA video coordinator Mo Dakhil, whose work can be found at Bleacher Report, The Athletic, or following on Twitter (@MoDakhil_NBA). The two break down Browdie's star performances, the supporting cast, what can be taken from this game's atypical (one hopes, at least) context, the Lakers' ceiling on both sides of the ball, and more.HOSTS: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT ONE: Andy talks with Mo Dakhil about Russell Westbrook's performance, and what worked for him.SEGMENT TWO: Andy and Mo discuss Anthony Davis' performance, and how he can build off it.SEGMENT THREE: Mo's impressions of the Lakers' offensive and defensive potential.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!SweatBlockGet it today for 20% off at SweatBlock.com with promo code LockedOn, or at Amazon and CVS.Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
