Summary

Wednesday's game in Minnesota drives home how different things are for the Lakers now, relative to expectations. One team is 10 games under .500, one team is 10 games over. And neither is the one anyone would have picked in the preseason. So why has it finally clicked for the Wolves this season? What does their success say about the path available to the Lakers were they to, as some fans have suggested, "Blow it up," this summer? If the Lakers can somehow get the ship back to neutral in terms of draft capital, would you feel comfortable they could make the right picks? Many strong responses to Tuesday's show about complaints LeBron is "stat-padding" as the Lakers appear to be playing out the string before inevitable disappointment in the play-in. They show, more than anything, that the equity James has as a star in LA is different than others who have come before him. Then it's on to the Twitter Mailbag. Does Frank Vogel deserve to get fired? He's going to be, but does he deserve it? And will anyone be willing to take Russell Westbrook off the Lakers hands for a package that isn't hot garbage? HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: Lakers vs. Wolves is not quite the David vs. Goliath story people would have expected earlier in the year. SEGMENT 2: How confident should fans be in the Lakers front office if a rebuild really is on the table? SEGMENT 3: Mailbag! On Vogel and Russ. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
