Lebron should drive it every possession they’ll call a foul every time for sure

Lakers just need to drive into paint, refs will bail them out everytime. Takes too much effort though. Foster will need to go deep in his bag.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

Don’t know why James doesn’t drive every single time he touches the ball. It’s an auto trip to the line

Davis doesn’t have to help that much. He is the one breaking down the defense in the 4th.
