      The offense is still predictable. When AD holds the ball in the post, they just stand and don't move around so even if the Warriors double they are not open and AD is stuck. When Reaves or D-Lo initiates and handles the ball it's the same thing, they just set a pick and live on the result. Darvin Ham doesn't have many offensive sets. This is why Kerr will be the difference maker for the rest of the series cause he knows how to adjust accordingly and immediately too.

    Lebron is definitely hurt. I agree with nick. 😢😢 Dude was dropping 30+ before the injury and he was attacking from the post more. His jumper been off all season. He doesn't trust the ankle. He said it himself, he went to multiple doctors who told him he needed the surgery and found an expert who told him if he plays it won't ruin the ankle. Broussard is like "well why would he play if he's injured". Uhhh because he's a competitor and the league was wide open this year. I guarantee if those trades had not been made, and they wouldn't looked promising in his absence, he would've gotten a surgery and they'd be home.
    I think he's only got a limited amount of explosive plays per game.

      When Steph, Klay, Poole, Dray and Wiggs/Dante are in the floor the pace is about to go through the roof. As an observer, the Lakers fell into the trap of trying to match their pace and start bombing threes because the Warrior revert to a zone defence with this line up. The Lakers instead should try to slow the game down and beat them up with their size unless the long rebounds give easy transition baskets. I’m sure Darvin or Bron will be watching tape…

    I think Bron knew they had a good squad after the trade deadline and they can potentially win the championship and that’s why he decided against the surgery. He knows that just his presence and defense can benefit the lakers which would not happen if he decided for the surgery. He knows even without his ball handling and scoring they can make a run so he is settling for 3s and jump shots. Btw Lakers 4-0.

Btw, it doesn't ever get talked about, but kawhi not resigning for 2 more years in Toronto was clearly a mistake by him. The raptors gave the Celtics everything they could handle in the bubble. OG hit an incredible buzzard beating 3 for a W. One of the best inbound passes you'll ever see from Lowry and OG put it up so quick. If they had Kawhi I believe it would have been a Lakers vs Raptors final in the bubble. Since going to the Clippers it's been typical Clippers playoffs. Big mistake on his part leaving a team after a championship.
