Listen "Fifth Starter Debate: Rui vs Smart"
Episode Synopsis
Should Rui Hachimura remain the Lakers 5th starter or should he be usurped by Marcus Smart? Does Rui’s offense outweigh Smart’s defense? Does Rui’s production as a starter vs. a reserve matter? How much should keeping Smart healthy play a factor? Pete and Darius are joined by special guests Mike Garcia and Raj Chipalu to answer these questions and debate the merits of both as starting players.
