It unofficially kicked off Thursday, when Rob Pelinka and JJ Redick met the media. They answered questions for just over a half hour on a range of topics, and generally sounded like people pleased with a busy summer's work and ready to begin the Luka Era in earnest, with a team that is his now on every level. Some of the highlights: Pelinka said that once they knew LeBron was leaving, they built a template based on 1) Keeping Austin. 2) Finding a \"franchise center.\" 3. Getting younger with \"dribble, pass, shoot\" types who could work well around Luka. Certainly they believe the mission was accomplished in that regard. JJ said three spots were locked in the starting lineup. (If you need us to tell you which... how did you get here, anyway?) And while he didn't reveal any big hints about the other two, he did say it wouldn't be \"two white guys.\" Sorry LaRavia and Mamu. There's only room for one of you. JJ and Pelinka both agreed this roster makes sense, in terms of its construction. They've put something together that is coherent in their eyes, even if it's incomplete. Speaking of which... Both Pelinka and Redick made it clear that the Luka-centric rebuild wasn't going to be executed in one offseason. This is a project that is still in progress. Asked if he thinks the Lakers have a championship caliber roster, Pelinka deferred, and certainly didn't say yes. They're done switching 1-5 now that Kessler is in the fold. That, said Redick, was a strategy borne from necessity, not preference. More to come on Monday at Media Day! HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: Pelinka and Redick meet the media.
