Summary
The Lakers had another eventful weekend, losing to Memphis on Friday but getting a much needed and quality win against the Clippers on Sunday to snap their four-game losing streak. Pete, Mike, and Darius discuss those games, diving into the Lakers defense vs. Memphis, LeBron's strong all-around play vs. the Clippers, how the bigger lineups and defensive switching helped contain the Clippers offense, Christian Wood's play next to LeBron, D'Angelo Russell's return, and much more. And then later, the guys discuss Jarred Vanderbilt's play on both ends and some of the changes in how he's being used offensively.
