Lakers Mailbag! Talen Horton Tucker's growth, Anthony Davis' shooting, Westbrook breaking Magic's record and more!
Locked On Lakers - Daily Podcast On The Los Angeles Lakers - Ein Podcast von Locked On Podcast Network, Andy and Brian Kamenetzky
After noting an absolutely crazy Laker/NBA anniversary reinforcing just how compressed the last two seasons have been... it's time to open up the mailbag!! (Reach out to the show on Twitter: @kambrothers, email: [email protected], or the iTunes show page.) The first question comes from @thenathanmark, asking whether it would be a bigger deal if Anthony Davis or Talen Horton Tucker shot 35 percent from behind the arc. Obviously, it would be great if both did, but if you could only pick one in terms of greater potential impact, it's definitely THT, because it represents growth that in turn increases his chances of logging more minutes and playing a larger role. As a player still in development, the fewer weaknesses to account for, the easier it is to keep him on the floor. Conversely, AD will have a huge role even if he misses every three taken this season. From there, the Kamenetzkys stay on THT, who barely made a blip on "best players 25 and younger" from Silver Screen and Roll and Tom Ziller. The omission is to be expected, given how unproven he remains, big potential acknowledged. How important is it for him to take a big step this season? And finally, back to the mailbag. @duckgregscott asks to predict this season's big fan favorite (aka, "the new Alex Caruso") and @MJisOVERRATED wants to know the odds of Russell Westbrook breaking Magic Johnson's franchise record for triple-doubles in a season.
