Podcast: Did the Lakers ever put Luke Walton in a position to succeed?

With the current Los Angeles Lakers season thoroughly in its final and fairly depressing chapter, our podcasts cover what there is left to pay attention to, and how the season ended up the way it did.

Show Tiempo

Show Tiempo with Alex Padilla and Jordan Carruth returns after the Lakers beat the Chicago Bulls, snapping their five-game losing streak.

But are wins a good thing right now? Should the Lakers be in tank mode, trying to get the highest draft pick possible? The guys talk it out.

Also, everyone thinks it’s a foregone conclusion that Luke Walton will be fired this offseason, so Alex and Jordan discuss whether the organization did all it could to make Walton successful, or if the Magic Johnson’s vision just did not align with Walton’s.
