Westbrook Makes an Impression, Vogel Wants to Run, Anthony Davis Likes the Potential on Defense - a podcast by Locked On Podcast Network, Anthony Irwin

The Lakers' season, it is officially upon us! And we know this because the team has logged its first practice. At long last, LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Russell Westbrook shared the court doing basketball stuff.
What were some of the impressions? To begin, Russ is fast. Like, really fast. Like, "Holy s----, you have no idea just how fast this dude is until you watch up close!" fast. This is very important, because Frank Vogel stated a goal of becoming the best fast break team in the NBA. (Which, despite the team's collective age, is very doable.) There was also talk about chemistry, defense, process and just having fun learning to play with each other. It felt like an excellent start to 82 games and (fingers crossed) 16 playoff wins.Hosts: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky:

SEGMENT 1: The Kamenetzkys talk about their impressions of this team as one that really enjoys process and work, but also understands the importance of enjoying themselves over a long season.SEGMENT 2: Vogel expressed his belief that, despite the departures of, among others, Alex Caruso, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Kyle Kuzma, the Lakers can still be a high end defense. Is this the case?

SEGMENT 3: Vogel also said he wants the Lakers to run, run, run. Some will laugh at this notion, given how many elder statesmen are on the roster. Those folks are wrong.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
