    That would be the reason for starting Jamychal over Looney: try to get AD out of the paint. Not sure it will work.

    Hoping we counter by putting Bron on JaMychal and AD on Dray.

    I don't think small ball is going to work. AD is about to have another monster game.

    They’ll bounce back, if not tonight, next game.

    Got the split. They were happy with that.

    Four Lakers came into the first quarter with any interest in this game -- Bron, Rui, DLO, Vando.

    Rest of the team was awful.

    If you aren't going to play D and aren't getting FTs, you're not beating an unworldly 3 point shooting team.

    Completely expected blowout, oh well, on to the next. GS adjusted as expected, now it’s our turn, this series will be 6 or 7 games

    This was completely expected based on Game 7 Sac game and what they did in the 4th of last game. Went with hedging of all things, which GS always destroys.
    Not that I expected the Lakers to win but not prepping for this and AD/Reaves complete no shows was disappointing because Lebron/Rui/Dlo looked like they were ready to try to steal this one

    They won Games 5 and 7 on the road last series. The “Warriors are bad in the road” thing is done, they just didn’t give a s*** about the regular season at all.

    QFT. Great, experienced team like that, can just "flip the switch" when needed. We'll get smoked at least once at Stap... Crypto i mean.
