Should Carmelo Anthony Start With LeBron, Westbrook and Davis? Plus, Minutes for Hillbilly Kobe? - a podcast by Locked On Podcast Network, Anthony Irwin

Tuesday's preseason loss to Warriors didn't just present the first look at the Lakers' Big Three of LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook. It raised the question of who should start alongside that trio of All-Stars. Granted, Frank Vogel's hands are a bit tied at the moment, given all the players who are shelved with injuries. But could Kent Bazemore and Carmelo Anthony, the two filling out Tuesday's lineup, fit the bill moving forward? Bazemore feels like a lock by now, but Melo? More debatable. So the Kamenetzkys do just that. What are the pros and cons of the future Hall of Famer vs. Wayne Ellington, Kendrick Nunn or other looks?

Whatever the rotation chosen, how much fun will the Lakers actually be to watch? ESPN's Zach Lowe offered up some thoughts in a recent column, and the Kamenetzkys react to his assessment.Finally, undrafted two-way player Austin Reaves has been turning heads of late with some unexpectedly un-rookie play. Is he a viable option once games actually count?

Hosts: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT 1: What's the best starting lineup for the Lakers, and does it include Melo?

SEGMENT 2: On a pure "fun" scale, how enjoyable will the Lakers be?SEGMENT 3: Is Hillbilly Kobe a thing?
