## Resource

What do the Lakers have to do to get up to OKC's and San Antonio's level? Mike Trudell opened the 2nd hour of Lakers Talk answering the question. Then, our own Mychal Thompson came on to talk about his "wanna-be child" Victor Wembanyama and the Lakers' potential offseason moves. Plus, what if OKC gave up their assets for Giannis should they lose the WCF to the Thunder? Trudell doesn't think so. And, Trudell gives us reasons why Rui Hachimura is so important to the Lakers.
