Bonus Episode! Westbrook Shines without LeBron and Davis in Loss to Charlotte

In another season with better karma, maybe Russell Westbrook's potential game-winner Friday night against the Hornets goes in. Maybe the Lakers pull the upset, and pick up an inspirational, unexpected win on a night where LeBron James and Anthony Davis were both in street clothes. But not this year. This year, the Lakers went out, shorthanded, fell behind early and made a good run at the end, but Westbrook's last-second three clanged off the rim, and the Lakers lose. They're now two games under .500 with one more game remaining on the road trip, against suddenly red-hot Atlanta. They are running out of time to get themselves out of the play in game and into the West's top 6. Can they get there? That, plus questions from Friday's game. On Russ, on Kent Bazemore, on Avery Bradley and Austin Reaves. HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
