About this episode
It's good for the Lakers to have the Big Three available, and even better when the Big Three actually produce positive results as a trio, as they've slowly started to do.  But it does require some sacrifices from all three. And most notably, from Austin Reaves.  AR put up big numbers at the start of the season when LeBron James was unavailable, and particularly big numbers when James and Luka Don?i? were both out. But when all three of them play, it's Reaves who seems to have given up the biggest proportion of his offensive opportunities. So what are the results from that? And how could that impact the way the Lakers are looking at next season, when the Big Three presumably becomes the Big Two, if LeBron leaves as many expect?    HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky  SEGMENT 1: The Lakers have the Big Three back... so what changes?    SEGMENT 2: Sacrifices for Reaves.    SEGMENT 3: Do not take the Pelicans lightly!    Everydayer ClubIf you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
