00:00What was your reaction to LeBron James signing that match to you?
00:07Number one, not shocked because obviously he talked about maybe LeBron taking less money to maybe get a Klay Thompson or something like that.
00:15I don't think DeMar DeRozan, who they would talk a little bit about the Lakers, I don't think he moved the needle enough.
00:20I don't know if DeMar was going to come to the Lakers to be honest with you.
00:23So to me, get that bag.
00:25And you know what?
00:26I don't know if we won't call him the James gang.
00:28I don't know if we would call him the Los Angeles LeBrons.
00:30It don't matter.
00:31It's LeBron's world.
00:32And everyone else on the Lakers is living in it through him.
00:37So he got his bag.
00:38I don't even think Ben, I mean, did he really need a no-trade clause?
00:42I mean, they got to go to him anyway if they want to trade him.
00:45So even if he did get it, he didn't need it.
00:48His son gets a multi-year deal to be on the roster.
00:52He's got his coach JJ Redick.
00:54Now it's about can the Lakers stay healthy?
00:56Can the Lakers stay healthy again this year?
00:59Because they actually were healthy a little, at least with LeBron and A.D.
01:02Can A.D. bring it every night?
01:04Can Dalton Connect make shots, right?
01:07Can Rory Hutchimore be the Rory Hutchimore we saw in the 2022 playoffs
01:10and not the Rory Hutchimore last year?
01:12What happened to D'Lo?
01:13Ben, even with LeBron back in the fold,
01:16there's still a lot of questions about how this Lakers team is going to work.
01:20And really, are they even a top five team in the Western Conference?
01:25We'll find out.
