Brian remains on vacation, so today’s guest spot is taken by Aaron Larusel (@AaronLarsuel), who’s worked with many NBA teams and currently is a consultant with the Lakers. Fans are dying to see new pieces added around LeBron James and Anthony Davis, but thus far, it’s been slow goings. Is this a Lakers or a “whole league” thing? Aaron offers insights about the mechanics of making trades. How difficult is it to turn “talks” into actual trades, and how much is the new CBA in the “Apron World” preventing movement around the league. Aaron also discusses the franchise’s view of player development, Max Christie’s potential, Jarred Vanderbilt’s importance and much more. Hosts: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky, with guest Aaron Larsuel.
SEGMENT 1: What makes trades tough in the NBA, and with this new CBA?
SEGMENT 2: The Lakers and player development.
SEGMENT 3: Can Max Christie and Jarred Vanderbilt provide internal improvement for the Lakers?
Calling Larsuel a consultant with the Lakers is hilarious lol. He’s Jeanie’s sycophant
