Speaker 1: And we continue on Fred Rogan Rodney Pete at a
Speaker 1: five seventy LA Sports Lakers tip it off tonight at
Speaker 1: the Crypt, the newly updated Crypt against the Minnesota Timberwalls.
Speaker 1: Let's bring on our good friend from the LA Times,
Speaker 1: Dan Wiki and Dan, thanks for jumping on.
Speaker 2: Guys, Thank you for having me. You know, this is
Speaker 2: one of my favorite calls of the week.
Speaker 1: All Right, as the new season begins, Dan, what are
Speaker 1: the realistic expectations play in team? Playoff team?
Speaker 2: Which one realistically? I mean, I think they can be
Speaker 2: a playoff team, sure, you know. I mean a lot
Speaker 2: of will have to go right. The team will have
Speaker 2: to stay healthy. I think they are in you know
Speaker 2: that that second dish tier of teams in the Western Conference. Look,
Speaker 2: they have two great players, two great players and Lebron
Speaker 2: James and Anthony Davis. Right, and that's good enough to
Speaker 2: get you into most conversations in terms of making the playoffs.
Speaker 2: You do need they need those guys to be healthy.
Speaker 2: I think they need a particularly big season for Antony
Speaker 2: from Anthony Davis. Uh but but sure, why not? I
Speaker 2: do think though they're like they are a what you
Speaker 2: would say, highish ceiling, lowish floor type of team. You know,
Speaker 2: it's not hard to see how it could go bad,
Speaker 2: Like you don't have to squint two art to figure
Speaker 2: that out. But but yeah, sure, I mean I think
Speaker 2: the Western Conference is very good, very very good, and
Speaker 2: they're on that sort of not top tier contender list.
Speaker 2: There's maybe four or five teams, and I think the
Speaker 2: Lakers are in that tier.
Speaker 3: You mentioned health. Anthony Davis and Lebron.
Speaker 4: Now, they were you know, as healthy as we've seen
Speaker 4: them both together last year, as they've they've been. Yeah,
Speaker 4: is it is it hard to imagine that they're going
Speaker 4: to have that same kind of you know, health and
Speaker 4: production this year as they get a year older.
Speaker 2: I don't want to make too many predictions about stuff
Speaker 2: like this, but but I will say this, I will
Speaker 2: be very curious to see where this team is at,
Speaker 2: like around mid December. I think Lebron and Anthony Davis
Speaker 2: are gonna enter this season in a in a pretty
Speaker 2: good rhythm. We've seen it already for a d for sure,
Speaker 2: right coming off the Olympics, not really having a ton
Speaker 2: of time off, they played a fair amount of competitive
Speaker 2: basketball this summer and it shows, you know, in a
Speaker 2: in a good way. Right, Like, they don't look rusty
Speaker 2: in any way. I mean, Anthony Davis was one of
Speaker 2: the best players in the league in the preseason I believe,
Speaker 2: trailed only Giannis for most points scored. Was crazy efficient,
Speaker 2: showcased you know, a little three point shooting while doing
Speaker 2: all the defensive stuff he always does. Let's see, though,
Speaker 2: I think you know, in December, as we get into
Speaker 2: you know, that first sort of dog day stage, uh,
Speaker 2: where their fatigue was, you know, because I think that's
Speaker 2: when that bill from Paris will kind of come. Do
Speaker 2: you know it won't be tonight, I you know, I
Speaker 2: won't be early in the season, I don't think, but
Speaker 2: as the year goes on, that's when I'm would be
Speaker 2: curious about that. But yeah, I mean, look, you have
Speaker 2: to be realistic about it, right, Rodney. I mean you
Speaker 2: have a player in Lebron James's starting year twenty two, right,
Speaker 2: Like that's like kick you out of the house age
Speaker 2: this season, like you know, like you're gonna get a
Speaker 2: job now, get out of here. And you know, Anthony
Speaker 2: Davis is a guy who you know has had you know,
Speaker 2: a lot of injury FROMMS. So you have to be
Speaker 2: realistic about that.
Speaker 4: Uh, Dan, you mentioned the summer and playing and especially
Speaker 4: the Olympics. As we watch those Olympics, I mean, A
Speaker 4: d and Lebron were the two best players on the court.
Speaker 4: I mean, aside from Steph Curry going unconscious in the
Speaker 4: in the final game, the gold medal game, those two
Speaker 4: basically were dominant in the in those Olympics.
Speaker 3: How much do you think that carries over.
Speaker 2: You know, I don't know. I think I think what
Speaker 2: it does is it does energize the players around them
Speaker 2: to a degree. Right, it shows, it sort of reaffirms
Speaker 2: which should be obvious. But like these are championship level
Speaker 2: players who really excel when playing championship level basketball. And
Speaker 2: if you're a role player and you're around that, you know,
Speaker 2: knowing how to impact the game without scoring, stuff like that.
Speaker 2: I think I think it has guys excited.
Speaker 5: It's it's a.
Speaker 2: Different it's a different thing. And I say this like
Speaker 2: as respectfully as possible, right, Like, there's a big difference
Speaker 2: between you know, running a pick and roll with Kevin
Speaker 2: Durant and running it with Dangel Russell or Austin Reeves.
Speaker 2: Like there's just a big difference, you know, Like, like
Speaker 2: you know, Lebron was on the court with Steph Curry.
Speaker 2: You know, I do think though from a from a
Speaker 2: competition's standpoint, I think they're sharp. I think they're mentally
Speaker 2: sharp entering the season.
Speaker 1: Dan Wikey is whether us Dan he talked to Lebron
Speaker 1: earlier today. What did he have to say is we
Speaker 1: get ready to go.
Speaker 2: You know, we talked a lot about Bronni James today,
Speaker 2: you know, and this is going to be a really
Speaker 2: special moment, uh for their family, for the league too,
Speaker 2: but but really for their family when he plays with
Speaker 2: the Sun. My hunches that it will happen tonight. I
Speaker 2: don't think you have Ken Griffy Junior and Ken Graffy
Speaker 2: Senior there sitting courts at if it's not gonna happen again,
Speaker 2: no disrespect, they're not here for Dalton connect. You know,
Speaker 2: Like that moment I think will happen tonight, and when
Speaker 2: it does, it'll be really special. It's it celebrates a
Speaker 2: bunch of things, right. It celebrates Lebron James's longevity. One
Speaker 2: of the things that I think though, like we've celebrated
Speaker 2: that a lot, and we will continue to celebrate that
Speaker 2: a lot. I think that it's important that you know,
Speaker 2: it's easy to be cynical about this, guys, and about
Speaker 2: how orchestrated it was and some of that stuff, and
Speaker 2: how this feels kind of maybe cheapened in some ways
Speaker 2: by by you know, Brownie's statistics at USC and different
Speaker 2: things like that, and you'll hear the word deserve a lot.
Speaker 2: I'm choosing instead to focus on the fact that Bronnie
Speaker 2: James wants to play in the NBA, He wanted to
Speaker 2: make it to the NBA and last summer, guys, he
Speaker 2: almost died, like I mean, there's there's no way around it, right,
Speaker 2: Like like he had his left saved at USC by
Speaker 2: those trainers, you know, and his road back has been
Speaker 2: remarkably quick. You know. It's it's an incredible story. I'm
Speaker 2: sorry a year and a half ago, it's an incredible story.
Speaker 2: And to me, you know, as a as a parent imagining,
Speaker 2: you know, my son being able to be well enough
Speaker 2: and to be out there, I think it is. I
Speaker 2: posted a video of the broad time on it. It's
Speaker 2: an incredible achievement for that family. It's an incredible testament
Speaker 2: to Browne James's hard work, to the to the medical professionals,
Speaker 2: to the people who work with him on rehab and
Speaker 2: stuff like that. That he's like physically able to do. This
Speaker 2: is incredible And I can worry about whether or not
Speaker 2: the deserved part, Like, I'll deal with that another time, right,
Speaker 2: Like tonight, like, let's celebrate the fact that this kid
Speaker 2: has gotten to accomplish something incredible, something that almost was
Speaker 2: taken from him.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, no doubt, no doubt.
Speaker 4: Man, when you look at the bigger picture of that
Speaker 4: that it it really is incredible. And regardless of people
Speaker 4: think he's going to be a are even make it
Speaker 4: in this league? Is the one thing you can say
Speaker 4: is Okay, so he's not he's not a you know,
Speaker 4: top two three player on this team, right, he may
Speaker 4: not even suit up, you know, anymore, but he can
Speaker 4: he can still play basketball. He can compete at this level.
Speaker 4: Maybe not to the level that his dad does or
Speaker 4: somebody else does, but he can compete at this level.
Speaker 4: So so why not at the end of the day,
Speaker 4: Dan does this? Do they get this over with tonight?
Speaker 3: And then?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 2: I think so?
Speaker 3: And then and then it goes wrong from there, right
Speaker 3: they just go play the season?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Look, I mean I think you know, there's a
Speaker 2: couple of things that play here. I mean, you know,
Speaker 2: the G League season hasn't started yet. That's for Brodie.
Speaker 2: I mean like resetting here a little bit, like you know,
Speaker 2: like today, Brinnie James is not an NBA player today,
Speaker 2: He's not, you know, like he has to get better
Speaker 2: in a bunch of different areas. And it is the
Speaker 2: Lakers job and his job to to make that happen
Speaker 2: and make that work right. And that's gonna happen mostly
Speaker 2: in the G League. It should, you know, and I
Speaker 2: haven't heard anything that suggests that it won't in a
Speaker 2: real way, you know. So that's where that work is
Speaker 2: going to happen. I think one of the things about
Speaker 2: him is she talked to people that you know, his
Speaker 2: work ethic is unquestioned. He's about the right stuff, Like,
Speaker 2: you know, this is not someone who wants to come
Speaker 2: into the league and average twenty points a game necessarily,
Speaker 2: right Like, I think he knows the kind of player
Speaker 2: he's gonna have to be, especially right away. And and
Speaker 2: that's a huge head start. Guys. Self self realization and
Speaker 2: self knowledge in the NBA is not is not in
Speaker 2: the kind of great supply always that you might think
Speaker 2: it is. And so I think he's already been sort
Speaker 2: of humbled in that way and is willing to do,
Speaker 2: you know, the little things he has to get better
Speaker 2: at him though. I'll say that he's got to more
Speaker 2: consistently play hard. He's got to box out more consistently.
Speaker 2: He has to to pick up ninety four feet more
Speaker 2: consistently and do that stuff, and he has to. I
Speaker 2: think a lot of it is confidence.
Speaker 1: Honestly, Dan, Dan, Dan, You're just talking about fundamentals. He's
Speaker 1: got to learn how to play in the NBA. He's
Speaker 1: just not an NBA player yet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but but yeah, but it is, like you know,
Speaker 2: I will willing enough, I'll say to believe that it
Speaker 2: is a multiple piece of clay. Sure, you know what
Speaker 2: I mean. And by the way, when you pick fifty fifth,
Speaker 2: like that's fine. Now, if this is twenty five minutes
Speaker 2: a night, that's a bad idea. But I don't think
Speaker 2: that's gonna happen. I just don't think that's gonna happen.
Speaker 2: I think everybody involved with this, from Lebron on down
Speaker 2: knows that's not a good idea. Right, Those twenty five
Speaker 2: minutes a night should be happening in Rio Grande Valley.
Speaker 2: They should be having in Rino in Fort Wayne, you know,
Speaker 2: you in your favorite rough felt cities that have minor
Speaker 2: league basketball. That's where it should be happening. I think
Speaker 2: that's where it's mostly gonna happen. But I do think
Speaker 2: that you know, look, if if if the end game
Speaker 2: here is to create you know, an eighth or ninth
Speaker 2: guy on a team, a rotation level NBA player, which, like, honestly,
Speaker 2: I think that should be the goal, right, you know, Ridnie,
Speaker 2: I saw what Magic tweeted about Caruso and Reeves. I mean,
Speaker 2: I mean, that seems a little that seems like the
Speaker 2: bar is being set a little high.
Speaker 3: A little high, a little bit, a little bit man,
Speaker 3: a little bit, yeah.
Speaker 5: I mean, but but you know, look, Magic gets excited.
Speaker 5: You know, I think he's an excitable He's an excitable person.
Speaker 5: Those exclamation points are aren't there by accident in those tweets,
Speaker 5: Like they're there for a real reason. But I think, look,
Speaker 5: if the goal is to mold him into that, they're
Speaker 5: going to get to work on it. And I think,
Speaker 5: you know, he's going to give them the best chance
Speaker 5: at figuring that out. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't. Tonight,
Speaker 5: like I said, I think it's more important to just
Speaker 5: like I think like the getting there tonight is more
Speaker 5: than the what happens next.
Speaker 1: Hey Dan, all Right? The biggest acquisition the Lakers made
Speaker 1: during the off season was JJ Reddick. As he approaches
Speaker 1: this first game, where do you think he is and
Speaker 1: his comfort level?
Speaker 2: I think it's high. Now we'll see what happens. Right,
Speaker 2: Like there is like a everybody has a plan until
Speaker 2: they get punched in the face sort of element of this,
Speaker 2: you know. I think the one thing, guys that I've
Speaker 2: been impressed with with JJ and having known JJ for
Speaker 2: a long time, having covered him with the Clippers and
Speaker 2: seeing him around the league and stuff like that, Right,
Speaker 2: he's a very confident person that comes across every time
Speaker 2: he speaks his confidence, I would say, uh, but he's
Speaker 2: an open minded person and he's a he's somebody willing
Speaker 2: to adjust. And I think that has been sort of
Speaker 2: my takeaway in talking to him, both in scrums and
Speaker 2: a little bit behind the scenes, is that, you know,
Speaker 2: like there's been three point three point three pointer has
Speaker 2: been a lot of you know, the talk in training
Speaker 2: camp and in the preseason, and this team has not
Speaker 2: shot shot the ball particularly well. If that continues, Like
Speaker 2: I mean, he's not going to do something just because
Speaker 2: he thinks it's the best way. I do believe that
Speaker 2: he will. He will adapt to what the team sort
Speaker 2: of is. And and you know, I think he's excited
Speaker 2: and willing to find that out. He's not going to
Speaker 2: get out worked, He's not going to get out prepared,
Speaker 2: you know. But but we'll see, you know. I've I've
Speaker 2: spoken some coaches who've told me that, you know, nothing
Speaker 2: really prepares you for the amount of decisions that you
Speaker 2: have to make in an NBA game as a head coach,
Speaker 2: that like they come at you rapid fire, you know.
Speaker 2: And I think so far in the preseason, you know,
Speaker 2: he's shown to be pretty quick with timeouts, He's been
Speaker 2: a good processor of information. Uh, the team hasn't played
Speaker 2: that great, you know. I think there's been some some
Speaker 2: real roster issues that have been exposed, you know, And
Speaker 2: I don't really know what to expect from them out
Speaker 2: of there, like right away to that in terms of
Speaker 2: how they look, that's kind of a that's hard to
Speaker 2: figure out. But I think he's prepared and has put
Speaker 2: them in the best possible position, you know, in terms
Speaker 2: of game plan and stuff like that, and then you know,
Speaker 2: we'll see if if it matches up with the with
Speaker 2: the talented ass.
Speaker 4: So that being said, on day day, what's what's going
Speaker 4: to be as big as challenge? Like early on and
Speaker 4: as the season progresses, but in particular is these first
Speaker 4: you know, a few weeks of the season, something that
Speaker 4: he may not be ready for.
Speaker 3: What do you think is going to be his challenge?
Speaker 2: You know, when things don't go well, probably is going
Speaker 2: to be like you know, I think we've heard a
Speaker 2: lot about the vibes around camp and stuff like that,
Speaker 2: and you talk to people and anybody knows knows that.
Speaker 2: You know, it's not hard to have good vibes early
Speaker 2: in a coaching regime. That's when that's that's when their
Speaker 2: things are at their Vibeists usually go, yeah, is that
Speaker 2: you have a change and you're happy and you're enthusiastic
Speaker 2: about it. And then you know, you deal with whatever
Speaker 2: comes in front of you. And so you know when
Speaker 2: when when things go a little off script, when things
Speaker 2: get hard, when you know you want to run motion offense,
Speaker 2: and you know Lebron thinks it's the right time to
Speaker 2: run pick and roll isolation, Like you know, like what
Speaker 2: happens then you know what I mean that to me
Speaker 2: is we'll be will be where the real tests are?
Speaker 2: You know. I do think everybody about this is pretty
Speaker 2: clear minded and understanding that this isn't a a day
Speaker 2: one solution, despite I think, you know, JJ being pretty
Speaker 2: prepared that there will be you know, some growing pains
Speaker 2: in this. But I but I but I think that
Speaker 2: that to me would be where because how do you
Speaker 2: how do you script that? You know, how do you
Speaker 2: get ready for that? And I think the other thing too,
Speaker 2: And like I said, I think he's answered some of
Speaker 2: this is just over analysis. He's a very analytical person,
Speaker 2: you know. And I think sometimes if you're somebody who want,
Speaker 2: you know, you're in a situation and you want to
Speaker 2: study it because you know, you think you have the
Speaker 2: brain power to figure it out, like you've got to
Speaker 2: you've got to hit it rapidly, you know, Like this
Speaker 2: is it does seem like the NBA is much more
Speaker 2: like the New York Times Mini Crossword than it is
Speaker 2: the big one, like speed matters and figuring the stuff out, uh,
Speaker 2: you know, And so I think, but I think he's
Speaker 2: shown that so far. But we'll just see how that
Speaker 2: happens when he's coming up against guys who have five, six, seven,
Speaker 2: eight years of experience of matching wits that quickly.
Speaker 1: All right, well, thank you for showing your wit with
Speaker 1: us today, Dan, we begin.
Speaker 2: To guys, guys, I have tell you I have it
Speaker 2: in droves over here. I'm overflowing with wits. Oh, this
Speaker 2: is what I've been telling overflowing. It's been it's been
Speaker 2: a long it's been a long off season. It's just
Speaker 2: been bubbling over. I'm ready to share it back with
Speaker 2: the listeners, with the five seventy world. That feels great
Speaker 2: to be back.
Speaker 1: All right, we will talk again soon, Dan.
Speaker 5: All right, guys, be good play team.
Speaker 3: You think rather optimistic there, Fred, Yeah, An you think.
Speaker 3: I think it's a playoff team. I think.
Speaker 1: So they stay healthy, Yeah, well, they got to stay healthy.
Speaker 1: But my issue is this, their best players are their
Speaker 1: oldest players, and the West is getting young. The teams
Speaker 1: in the West that are good are young.
Speaker 3: This team they're getting ready to open with is gonna
Speaker 3: be pretty good.
Speaker 1: I know this would be a good game tonight. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, we'll have Vic coming up, and then also
Speaker 1: let's talk about how you can win those World Series tickets.
Speaker 4: That's try, that's tried, right to be Fred Rogan on

Speaker 6: It's worth the price of admission. That's all I could say.
Speaker 7: Fred, You're right.
Speaker 6: Those are indelible memories. They cannot be measured in currency.
Speaker 6: The currency of memory and spending quality time with your
Speaker 6: hardball soulmate is precious and his baby Oliver is cooing
Speaker 6: once again with the World Series flavor Dodgers and six.
Speaker 1: Okay, now I like it.
Speaker 6: His inspirational cuts carry the azul to the four classic
Speaker 6: Roadie fascio.
Speaker 7: He never needs a ticket.
Speaker 1: It's King Flavor. Roll out the red carpet, big.
Speaker 3: Well.
Speaker 6: I am covelling for all Dodgers fans, but I'm also
Speaker 6: covalent for all Fernando Valenzuela fans.
Speaker 1: A feeling you.
Speaker 6: Lhigante tribute to the great El Toro and Boil Heights.
Speaker 6: It's a giant mural created by the same artists who
Speaker 6: painted the Otani Mural in Little Tokyo, the multi skilled
Speaker 6: Robert Vargas.
Speaker 7: He's calling it Fernando Mania Forever.
Speaker 6: Vargas says, because there was Fernando Mania before there was
Speaker 6: Oltani Mania. And Vargas begins his project of thirty four
Speaker 6: Love Today and he's going to finish it by November one,
Speaker 6: which would be Fernando's sixty fourth birthday. And you're gonna
Speaker 6: see it from both sides of the one on one.
Speaker 6: It's on First Street and Ball Heights. Of course, all
Speaker 6: our love and prayers to Fernando's recovering from health issues.
Speaker 6: But we've got to think back to Fernando Man when
Speaker 6: he first created the Delirium and the CEO died in
Speaker 6: nineteen eighty one.
Speaker 4: Yes, last time the Dodgers played the Yankees in the
Speaker 4: World Series.
Speaker 6: Pick exactly, exactly, Rather, he was a pen arm out
Speaker 6: of Mexico his first eight games and the Majors, Fernando
Speaker 6: hurled five shutouts, and Fernando Mania was born, and Valezuela
Speaker 6: galvanized the Dodgers Latino fan base, brought the city together.
Speaker 6: Everybody loves Fernando, his amazing spirit and journey, and that
Speaker 6: nineteen eighty one World Series ryd than you said it
Speaker 6: forty three years ago. That was the last time Dodgers
Speaker 6: and Yankees collided in the World Series, and Fernando led
Speaker 6: a Dodger rally to win that World Series in six
Speaker 6: after the Azul lost the first two to Reggie Jackson
Speaker 6: and his crew in the Bronx. Then game three, Timylasorda says, Fernando,
Speaker 6: you do your thing, Si se Pui, and Fernando won
Speaker 6: Game three, twirling a Juavos Field.
Speaker 1: Complete game Wavos Field.
Speaker 6: Sparking the Azul rally as the Dodgers won the last four,
Speaker 6: sending Timula sort of dancing in the streets.
Speaker 7: And that's the last time the Dodgers and Yankees met
Speaker 7: and the Ultimate showdown. Freddy, you have memories of nineteen eighty.
Speaker 1: One, think I've got some?
Speaker 7: That was a wild, wild series in Masazul. Welcome Old
Speaker 7: Tony Sign to the World Series.
Speaker 1: Well, we'll have to continue that welcome when we come back.
Speaker 3: Let's go, Freddy.
Speaker 4: Come on, it's Tuesday, Rodney p fred Rogan Vic to
Speaker 4: break Jacobs.
Speaker 3: Come on, Vic, we need it baby, Come on Vic.
Speaker 7: Welcome old Toni side to the World Series.
Speaker 6: As they say in Japanese, Yogatae are so happy for
Speaker 6: your happiness. And the Mount Fuji of Masfuerte will erupt
Speaker 6: against the Bronx Bombers. Remember, Yankee starting pitching is not
Speaker 6: so great Cole Schmidt, Gil Rodin and they got a
Speaker 6: mediocre bullpen.
Speaker 7: Everybody.
Speaker 6: They walk a lot of guys, and Otani's gonna get
Speaker 6: some nice pitches to drive with Muki standing by the crush.
Speaker 7: I love the way the series is lining up. Love
Speaker 7: it Dodgers in seven.
Speaker 3: So way.
Speaker 6: So if the Dodgers are that much better and they
Speaker 6: can eat alive their bullpen and all this stuff, why
Speaker 6: is it going seven games?
Speaker 7: Have a nice lineup. Listen.
Speaker 6: I respect the Yankees. They have a very solid offensive rotation.
Speaker 6: Your judge is gonna hit, Sodo's gonna hit, Stanton's gonna hit.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 7: You know, Taurus has been very very clutch lately.
Speaker 6: You know, valbe that sure this he gets, he gets
Speaker 6: on base a lot. Remember Dugal, the former Dodger. He's
Speaker 6: been producing. They got a nice lineup.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 7: Offensively they're tough, but the Dodgers are a better team.
Speaker 7: There's no there's no doubt.
Speaker 6: You know, look at it many different ways, but I'm
Speaker 6: looking at it just strictly.
Speaker 1: Pitching.
Speaker 6: Dodgers have better pitching. Pitching wins World Series Dodgers and seven.
Speaker 6: You know what that leads us to the source for it. Yes,
Speaker 6: I'm relying on the zen Archer Kenzo zen Bows and arrow,
