Summary

The Lakers are reportedly ready to open up their coaching search a little wider this week, with interviews with the big batch of well-regarded assistants (David Adelman, Micah Nori, Chris Quinn) expected to happen relatively soon. In the meantime, it's a perfect time to get into the Locked On Lakers mailbag (found in the community section of the YouTube page, or @Kambrothers on Twitter/X) and spend some time talking about the guy who is ultimately responsible for choosing the next head coach. No, not LeBron James (ha!) but Rob Pelinka. How much faith do we have in Pelinka's ability to find sustained success going foward? To this point, would you call his stewardship of the team a success? It's hard to call it an abject failure, with one title and one trip to the Conference Finals... but that's not the same thing as a success. From there, it's a question about personnel and the direction the Lakers go next year. How attractive are the Lakers still for the make-good type players they'll need to fill out a roster? Are they still viewed as a place where players who need some redemption have the opportunity to get it? And what about a trade of Austin Reaves, if it means getting back something special? Last year, the Lakers seemed very hesitant to include him in any sort of deal. Do they still have that luxury, if it means getting back an elite level talent? Plus, remembering Bill Walton. HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: Is the Pelinka Era a success or failure? SEGMENT 2: Optimism around Pelinka going forward? SEGMENT 3: Could/should the Lakers explore trading Austin Reaves?
