Lakers will need the refs to make this competitive. Bron is probably on the phone with silver as we speak while doncic is with him on the other line

Holy, Houston size is going to be a problem for the league.

They will just dare you to hit 3 pters over their defenders with 7 ft wingspan and 9 ft standing reaches.

IDK if it will be a problem, seems like something you can scheme against.

They are playing zone with long athletic defenders and Adam's staying in the paint. It looks tough, unless you are steph. Can't gameplan him.

Looks like Adams got tired and their defense vanished. Really not sure why Okc is pressing 94 the entire game just to tire them out.

This is what I like. Three yards in a cloud of dust.
This movie is like the Rocky Horror Picture Show where everyone knows all the lines.
