The Phil Jackson/Russell Westbrook Connection, plus a Radical Westbrook Thought Experiment
Locked On Lakers - Daily Podcast On The Los Angeles Lakers - Ein Podcast von Locked On Podcast Network, Andy and Brian Kamenetzky
Former Lakers head coach Phil Jackson has, reportedly, noted support for point guard Russell Westbrook, who (as was noted on Wednesday's show) has a pretty decent chance of being in a Lakers uniform next season. Or at the least, being eligible to wear one, assuming the Lakers don't buy him out or pay him to sit on the sidelines. Jackson reportedly believes Westbrook wasn't utilized properly this season and is a fan of his talent. All of that could mean a lot of things, and all of it kinda makes fans a little nervous. Particularly those who don't think Jackson should have a significant voice in choosing the next head coach. So is the concern warranted? As always, God is in the details. Does "support" for Westbrook mean advocating for the Lakers to keep him? For trying to make the best of it if they can't find a good deal? Big difference between just those. From there, it's a Westbrook Thought Experiment. And it's a bold one! HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: Phil Jackson reportedly is a Westbrook fan. What does that mean, exactly? SEGMENT 2: What are the odds Westbrook could be a credible contributor for the team this season? SEGMENT 3: A radical Westbrook thought experiment. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
