There was too much to cover from Wednesday's press conference for one show, so today it remains the core of the conversation. From a basketball standpoint, a lot was revealed by JJ Redick about how he'd like to play this season. He talked about movement and motion, of redistributing where shots come from around the floor, and how certain guys might be asked to do new things. Like Rui Hachimura, crashing for offensive rebounds from the corner. Max Christie is clearly being primed for a regular rotation role for the first time. And the Lakers clearly want to get more from Austin Reaves. And remember D'Angelo Russell? Redick spoke at some length about the amount the two of them have been communicating this offseason. Redick said he hopes to put Russell in position to have a career year. Will that keep him on the Lakers, or keep Rob Pelinka from leaving Russell permanently on the block? Likely not. But while Russell is coming off a very, very strong season, if Redick can optimize his strengths more effectively than Darvin Ham, it would benefit the Lakers for sure. It's was interesting as well to hear both of them talk about the potential of this team to perhaps exceed expectations. Always an awkward question for management/coaches who can't exactly hit the doomsday whistle a few days before camp starts, but also don't want to appear like they're detached from reality. But what exactly is the reality about the team itself, as opposed to negative vibes around their lack of action this summer?
