The Lakers have traded for Russell Westbrook. Yes, Russell Westbrook is now a Laker. There is A LOT to discuss.

First, the Kamenetzky Brothers dig into what was arguably the craziest day around the Lakers since Chris Paul was a Laker for 45 minutes or so. The news was fast in coming, and very unexpected. What does it say about the front office that they went this direction? From there, it's all about the impact. What's good about Westbrook's addition to the Lakers? What is potentially problematic? What, to the extent you can know before free agency starts, is coming next, because losing three rotation pieces from last season (Kyle Kuzma, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Montrezl Harrell) leaves them with real holes to fill, before you get to glaring problems with team skill set (SHOOTING, PLEASE!)Finally, we'll miss you, KCP and Kuz.

HOSTS: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT 1: WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED ON THURSDAY?!?!?!? Reaction to the event, and what it says about the headspace of the franchise.?

SEGMENT 2: What's good about Russ, and how he could help the Lakers.SEGMENT 3: What's problematic about Russ, and why ultimately this whole thing could flame out, spectacularly.
