Oh come on. Dont stick with the usual rotation. Put Cp3 back in. Need some Torrey Craig activeness in there as well

From 29 to 13. Lakers small crowd going crazy. Close out games are hard. Can they do it? Can't let LeBron go to the rim. Need a couple guys in the paint.

They've been doing it the entire game. It's disgusting

Also our play has been putrid. Overconfident, trying to run the clock.

This is a game now and we did it to ourselves. How can they not see this and prevent it?

Schroder has been very active and they're doubling Booker. Changed everything.

Let Booker run the offense, please.

Why they let James score easy baskets, foul him, he can't hit FTs.

The defense has lost focus and has opened up the lanes for the drives. Close that up and force their outside shot, which hasn't worked for them yet.

We're getting lazy on O too. Trying to use the shot clock and then can't get space for an open shot and are forcing up shots reminiscent of Booker's attempts at game winners.

Props to Vogel for making adjustments in the second defensively.

Yeah, he needs to have a crazy little run like he did a few night ago.
