Lakers Coaches, NBA Insiders Offer Breakdown of Luka Doncic's New Roster

The Lakers had a very eventful offseason, leading to what could rightly be called a radical roster makeover. Whether you like, dislike, or remain undecided about Luka Doncic's new look running mates, one thing's for sure: Rob Pelinka and company were not content to sit on their collective hands and play things safe.

 

But did they actually do a good job with their moves? NBA Front Office Podcast co-host Keith Smith has a new piece for Spotrac, compiling anonymous (and therefore candid) thoughts from Lakers assistant coaches and rival execs/scouts around the league on what they're expecting from this new team. What are the strengths? The Weaknesses? The potential.

 

Hosts: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky

 

Segment 1 Do the players around Luka make sense?

Segment 2: Walker Kessler's importance.

Segment 3: New roster, better offense?
