GSW @ LAL — game 6, WC semi final 

Post#1 » by stan francisco » Fri May 12, 2023 2:53 am

Past:
Game 1: LAL 117-112 GSW
Game 2: LAL 100-127 GSW
Game 3: GSW 97-127 LAL
Game 4: GSW 101-104 LAL
Game 5: LAL 106-121 GSW
LAL 3 - 2 GSW

Future:
Game 6: 5/12 • 10:00 PM ET on ESPN
Game 7: If Necessary GSW home game 5/14

Do we want to play a game seven in San Francisco? Defensive adjustment needed, lineup wise and tactics wise.

Go Lakers!

How about putting Vando at the dunker spot or let him cut to the basket more instead of standing at the corner waiting for a low percentage 3 pointer on the offensive end ? Very much like what GPII did.

His defense is much needed.

It really doesn’t matter. Truthfully I would just tank if I was LA. Either lakers or warriors are gonna get feasted on by the nuggets. Probably won’t even win a game. . Unless AD turns into 2001 Shaq between now and then. Yea won’t happen. Lakers can’t shoot and warriors have no size at all

Yes yes, there are other ways where he can contribute other than being a lame duck in the corner. He can cut from the weakside, position for offensive rebounds AND be a weakside SCREENER to shooters or AD.
Biggest concern for me is Game 6 Klay, this guy is due for an explosive game. They will need Vando to put his stamp on defense

Pick n roll around the top of the key needs to be stopped. Especially on D Lo’s side. If we can do that and out rebound them, we win tonight.

That's why people like him still live w parents (to mooch, not to help) while the rest of us actually go out in society to accomplish doing something.

Must win. Schroder starting in place of Vando. It’s needed.

That’s the lineup I would have started at the start of the series. We need the offensive spacing so LeBron and AD can get into the paint. I would have also considered Lonnie.

I agree that it's a needed change. I do like how we gave it a go with Vando starting though, because of how we'll he's done guarding the other team's best player regardless of position. It ended up working out for game 1 too, but once they changed their approach and focused more on the P&R, it became ineffective.

If this was chess, I think Ham used a good opening. Kerr just adjusted very well

Shroeder, plz less flopping. Refs are now expecting your flops. Way too aggressive in pulling someone down like that.

Refs i feel want to keep it close. For the ratings. Steph so clearly hit it out of bounds but they wanted to give the balls to the Dubs so bad there. Lakers lost their chance in just blowing up the Dubs and making the game a foregone conclusion where even the refs rather jsut end it, instead of strategically keeping it close.

Dlo gone trash since 1st Q.. Stop shooting so many 3s and attack the rim off the pick and roll yo. Shooting some mid-ranges is better than 3s.
