Anthony Davis wants to play power forward, not center. This is not something new. He said it last year, too, but in the end played (not an exaggeration) 99% of his minutes at center. Some of that was context, some of it was the evolution of Davis as a player. The numbers, for a while, have indicated the Lakers are more effective team when he plays there.So reportedly, Davis again wants to play more PF, and the Lakers did just sign someone who could theoretically make that possible in Christian Wood.So does Wood's arrival mean that Davis is bound to get his wish?Well, sort of? The ability of Wood to play with Davis, at least on paper, means that the two of them should be just fine on the floor together. Wood, meanwhile, is someone who can, in theory, play 25 minutes a night. So Davis to the four! Not so fast. The issue isn't just about Davis, but LeBron James. And if Davis plays 75% of his minutes at the four, that means James is playing about that many at small forward. And, that, in terms of defense along with wear and tear, is a really poor idea.But could Wood and Davis play together while LeBron isn't on the floor? OR for a few minutes when he is? Sure! So maybe that number drops from 99% to 80% 85% is that enough difference to make Davis happy?Next... Austin Reaves and Team USA lost in the bronze medal game to Canada this weekend, and whenever the US loses to ... well, anyone in basketball, people get mad. And Reaves took plenty of flak for his defense in the last few games. Did anything happen in the tournament/lead up that should cause real concern?Finally, Friday's show was all about Jarred Vanderbilt, and his new extension eligibility. Both of us had numbers in mind for what would make sense. Many people thought we were lowballing him, though, reflecting a more broad undervaluing of his skills. So are they right?HOSTS: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT 1: AD wants to play the 4.
