Podcast: How would a Jimmy Butler trade affect the Lakers?

Usually, Mondays are designated for mailbags on Locked on Lakers, but this was a special occasion. We somehow reached 500 episodes, and for having lasted this long, I figured we’d celebrate with the rare Harrison, Pete and myself combination show.

Harrison almost ruined everything because of course he did.

We start the episode by discussing this whole Jimmy Butler situation. As of right now, Butler still plays for the Minnesota Timberwolves. That probably won’t remain the case for particularly long, but here we are.

Seeing as we don’t know what his eventual destination might be, all we could do was speculate and analyze the situation based on a couple of the likelier scenarios: The Los Angeles Clippers if he stays west and, if he heads back east, the Miami Heat.
