    Just did a quick check on the 4 games we played them this season

    We gave up 45 offensive rebounds in total and we had 42 of our own across the 4 games. But AD and LeBron did not play in one of the games

    These games were played with the old squad before the trades and GSW gave us a few issues on OB during the last series

    I really hope we find a way to resolve our boxing out issues, it's been there all season

    I also think we matchup nicely with Denver. It's a totally different series than with GS. And Memphis to some degree. Speed, pace and quick guards were the basis of our matchups. With Denver it's forward heavy, low pace and size. Rui and Tristan cam play a big role.

    I think we have enough mismatch advantages to play Vando. If he can shut Murray, he plays +25min. He's also the one that is not a liability defending the two-man game of Murray and the Joker. He can switch on that play.

    Schroder and Lonnie can't. I don't see who can they guard. Maybe KCP. Can DLo defend Murray? What split do you guys have on who we have defending Murray?

    do they still have the band in the 300s? one of the last times i attended a game was kobe's jersey retirement and the band was a few sections away from where i was sitting. not sure if they're still a thing, but they've existed since dr. buss bought the team and i don't see why they would do away with them. i know they ditched their in-arena organist and just use generic "defense" chants now

    Analytically we won the Game by 20 or whatever. No comment."
    :rofl:
    Doc Rivers had some things to say about the officiating in Game 6 & how he hopes to defend the Jays in Game 7 .
    Yes we all remember that Doc never lost a playoff game without injured players

    Are you talking about ice in my veins? Dlo started that back when he was a Laker the first time.

    whew...harden looking rough early in game 7. bobbled the ball on a break, flailed his arms and picked up a flagrant that led to 4 points the other way, then couldn't seal the post up and boston got a breakaway the next play. erased a ten point lead and got the crowd into the game. just not what you want from your star in this situation.

    NBA wants a Boston-Lakers final

    Joel has to be Jokic-type dominant for the Sixers to win this
