Lakers Podcast: Discussing the optimism around the Lakers

Finding the balance between optimism and realism will be an important balancing act for the Los Angeles Lakers this season. The team has an enviable amount of young talent, and the team’s coaching staff hasn’t been shy about offering them praise this offseason.

However, is too much hope building for Los Angeles before yet another season in which the team will likely be among the worst in the NBA? Hosts Harrison Faigen and Anthony Irwin shared their thoughts on the message being sent out by the Lakers this summer in the latest episode of Locked on Lakers.

Plus, the two discussed their interview with new Los Angeles D-Fenders head coach Coby Karl that Harrison messed up the recording for.
