The Los Angeles Lakers ended their three-game road trip on a sour note, losing 125-99 to the Minnesota Timberwolves. The blowout loss dropped their record to 6-5 for the season, which is still better than anyone projected it would be. Still, the loss stings.

This episode of the Lakers Nation Podcast breaks down what went wrong in this game as well as what went right for Minnesota. We take a look at the performance of Nick Young as he attempted to guard Andrew Wiggins and dissect the play of Julius Randle. Finally, we discuss the silver lining for Los Angeles in this game, who have a lot to be happy about despite the loss and may have just learned an absolutely crucial lesson.

All that and much more in this episode of the LN Podcast:
