BEWARE!

Lakers, injured and hurt from their last game, coming to Atlanta. Taking it out on us. Play it cool.

We need Trae to be ready tonight.

Hawks are 5.5 favorite.

The Lakers are 7-3 in the last 10 H2H meetings.

Playing 82 games at 40 is going to be difficult for Lebron to accomplish.

And the Lakers will likely be extra motivated after that butt whooping they just endured against the Heat.

(Looked they'd been out enjoying the scenery on South Beach the night before the game.)

Austin Reaves is definitely ducking his rematch with Jalen Johnson.

Spoiler:

Hopefully they did the same in Atlanta :nod:

That's very true.
The Lakers left five and a half feet on average for their opponent to shoot the ball. I doubt they do the same tonight. I expect them to make a better effort on defense.

Lebron makes 1 of like 24 3-pointers.

Comes to Atlanta and drains his first one.

In Traes' last 64 three point attempts he's made 13.

Trae is doing a great job getting the team involved and he has only turned the ball over 1 time.

Bogi is the 4th player in history to make a three pointer in 100 games in a row.

What a win!
And a triple win tonight, regarding the picks as it ads a L to LAL, and SAC won their game.

But also what a frustrating win:

- it could have been won without OT if only Trae, who was something like 6 on 20, have continue to involve the other guys and add some assists instead of these several bad shots/layups he took

- now Quin: they were +13 with Bogi before the OT (highest Plus/Minus), and he was hot... You would imagine that he would play more than some seconds in the last minute, but no, Quin prefers playing almost all the OT with his starting five.
It's like it's written before the game and he will follow that and won't adjust anything.
I don't like this part of his coaching. It worked this time, not sure it will the next, or in a playoffs game

They can be proud of their 6th win in a row, but they also need to re-watch it and realize they should have won before OT

On the last shot in regulation, Trae said there was a miscommunication with JJ on the play.
