Summary

Russell Westbrook is many things at once. A force of nature. Polarizing. Exceptionally talented. Loudly flawed. All of which makes predicting his fit alongside LeBron James, Anthony Davis and a newly overhauled supporting cast a challenging, but fascinating, puzzle for Frank Vogel to solve. At his best, Westbrook is a uniquely versatile player who makes life easier for his teammates. At his worst, he stubbornly ignores his own limitations while sucking the life out of a game. Which version of Westbrook the Lakers see most often will be a huge determining factor in their success this season. To talk all things Westbrook, the Kamenetzkys brought in Ed Oliver, a D.C. sports media staple and the host of Locked On Wizards. They get into Westbrook's strengths and weaknesses on both sides of the ball, his legendary work ethic, what he brings to the table instilling team culture, and more. Hosts: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: Oliver's thoughts on Westbrook, from an offensive standpoint. SEGMENT 2: Oliver's thoughts on Westbrook, from a defensive and cultural standpoint. SEGMENT 3: The Kamenetzkys react to the conversation with Oliver. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
