About this episode
Minutes for the Big 3 have gone from a major liability to a major strength for the Lakers.
And because of it, how folks view the rest of the regular season and postseason (and offseason, though those conversations can wait) is undergoing a serious transformation. So how did we get here? Monday in Houston, JJ Redick talked about how the Lakers have rethought the usage of their top three players, with Luka Dončić obviously maintaining his place at the top of the food chain, but engineering a shift between Austin Reaves and LeBron James that elevates Reaves on the ball, and lowers LeBron's usage to historic levels.
Why has it worked? What does it say about the strengths and weaknesses of each player? And perhaps most importantly, about the culture of buy-in LA has built?
