You're not getting an offensive foul on Harden Caruso.

Danny Green ain't no Dort.

Literally a pylon when guarding Harden.

Lightning Lu Dort prepared Harden and the Rockets for a long 2nd round series. The Rockets are battle-tested

LAL can't get beat for rebounds in their own end. They're also flying by on the 3s rather than planting a position and contesting sideways but up close if you know what I mean.

Lakers are slightly overpaying his left hand to prevent the step back.

We'll see the defence adjust after the break

Houston getting offensive rebound? Lol. What happened to Lakers' big?
Sometimes I'll start a sentence and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way.

It's been a long, long time since we had a player I dislike as much as Rondo. Smush Parker?
