Yeah? 49 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, nine since mid January exactly. 50 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: But yeah, Look, the Lakers just they they did something 51 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: very interesting with their defensive setup and look we won one, 52 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: twenty three, one hundred. 53 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 2: It was very beautiful. 54 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 7: I mean, who's we this is a this is an 55 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 7: objective NBA podcast that favors No, yeah, we are partners 56 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 7: at the National Basketball Association and nobody else. 57 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 3: That is true. 58 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 1: But that's why we had to change the name of 59 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,079 Speaker 1: the show up to mad Biases, So we need to. 60 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 3: Get around that. 61 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: So we weren't really trying to sell anybody any bait 62 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: news here, but yeah, you know, per Hoops Tonight Jason Show, 63 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 1: the Lakers went into that weekend as the number one 64 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: defense over the last eighteen games. 65 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 7: I would have never guessed that. That's that's wild. I 66 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 7: still don't believe you. 67 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 3: Where'd you get this information? 68 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, where'd you find that? 69 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:22,079 Speaker 3: Where'd you find it? 70 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 6: It's just just on the NBA website. It's it's crazy though, 71 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 6: because like it was kind of a trend. It was 72 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 6: the Lakers had started playing good basketball for a solid 73 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 6: month before the deadline. There were a couple of ugly 74 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 6: losses in there, but like even there was a phase 75 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 6: with ad where it was kind of coming together. The 76 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 6: main difference was the team getting rid of D'Angelo Russell 77 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 6: and bringing in Dorian Finney Smith, getting Jared Vanderbilt back 78 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 6: healthy and getting an engaged Lebron on the defensive end 79 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 6: gave them suddenly essentially an influx of three six eight, 80 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 6: six y nine wings that do a lot of things 81 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 6: on the defensive end of the floor. And so there's 82 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 6: been a certain like influx of defensive talent that I 83 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 6: think a lot of people have just kind of like 84 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 6: lost over because we've looked at this Lakers roster as 85 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 6: somewhat mediocre over the last few years, and when Ad 86 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 6: went out with his injury, they just leaned into the 87 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 6: same scheme that they had been doing really well for 88 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 6: about a month, which is just switching everything, but doing 89 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 6: a much better job of helping each other in those switches. 90 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 6: So instead of just leaving a dude on an island 91 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 6: to be barbecue chicken, they're gapping down alongside these guys. 92 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 6: They're offering help, and their rebounding is a big piece 93 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 6: of it. Like the Lakers were getting torched early in 94 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 6: the year because Ad would get switched out in their 95 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 6: one through five switching scheme and he'd be standing on 96 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 6: the perimeter, Lebron be standing on the perimeter, and they 97 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 6: just wouldn't gain rebound. And so, to JJ Reddick's credit, 98 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 6: he's stuck with it with a group that really didn't 99 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 6: seem to have a ton of just day to day 100 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,119 Speaker 6: fight in them to start the year, and with the 101 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 6: influx of different personalities in the locker and just some success, 102 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 6: it seems to have gained momentum and the group's just 103 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 6: guard it. But like to make a long story short, 104 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 6: the reason why they're guarding well is just they've got 105 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 6: a bunch of dudes who are six eight six' nine 106 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 6: that can guard multiple positions and that are all big and, 107 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 6: strong and so like for being a small ball, team 108 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 6: they're actually. Big they like. You that was the big 109 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 6: thing that stood out to me in The denver. Matchup 110 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 6: compared to years past when It's Dennis schroeder out, there 111 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 6: D'Angelo russell out, There they're just they were skinny and, 112 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 6: smaller And denver really pushed them, around AND i was 113 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 6: just really impressed by the way that they gang rebound 114 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 6: more than anything. Else like, It, like regardless of the, 115 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 6: scheme you would have Thought denver would have eaten them 116 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 6: up on the, glass and they only had a negative 117 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 6: three margin on the offensive. Glass so like With luca coming, 118 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 6: in it obviously isn't going to be as effective. Defensively 119 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 6: there will be some sort of slippage, There but then 120 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 6: you're also getting one of the greatest offensive engines in 121 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 6: the history of the game and beautif. Things that's Put 122 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 6: lebron into this position where he's playing on the skip 123 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 6: pass now and he's just ridiculous catching the ball on 124 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 6: that side of the floor driving a close. 125 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 3: Out yeah, yeah. 126 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 6: Dude he had a dunk in That denver game where 127 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 6: he just went along the baseline and got that dunk 128 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 6: off the skip. Pass, luca in a weird, way unlocks 129 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 6: the main thing The lakers didn't, have which was like 130 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 6: a consistent force that could get the defense in. Rotation 131 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 6: they actually have a lot of really talented offensive players 132 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 6: that can play with an, advantage But lebron's forty And 133 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 6: austin is not a supreme, athlete and so either of 134 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 6: them can run into walls on offense where they don't 135 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 6: have the same, impact And luca just solves that. Problem 136 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 6: and when you have that mixed with what should be 137 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 6: a pretty strong defensive foundation from the last eighteen, Games, 138 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 6: LIKE i think people would be foolish to write them 139 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,239 Speaker 6: off in terms of their big picture. 140 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 7: Potential would it be foolish to Write luca off because 141 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 7: you think he's in bad. Shape let's let's not talk about. That, actually, 142 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 7: yeah it. Really it is. 143 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,119 Speaker 3: Like twenty pounds in two. Weeks. 144 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 7: Man it is amazing how GOOD nba players who people 145 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 7: think of as like kind of disposable or like replacement 146 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 7: level will become by just like, change by just adding 147 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 7: the best offensive player in the league to their. Team 148 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 7: it just causes so many more advantages and across the 149 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 7: board on the offensive. 150 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 3: END i. 151 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 6: COACH i coach my high school, kids and it's so 152 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 6: funny Because i'll do more in the, summertime more traditional 153 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 6: one on one, stuff but during the season we do 154 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 6: a lot of close out king of the, court so 155 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 6: like where the kids have to like throw the ball 156 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 6: from underneath the, basket sprint, out and, like it is 157 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 6: shocking to me how the difference in their effectiveness based 158 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 6: on whether or not that close out is.

Together and again even with Ruy 194 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 1: hachimorri's three point, SHOOTING i feel LIKE i say this a, 195 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: lot or we say this a lot Is. Lakers lakers 196 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: fans are, like if, really if really just keeps doing, 197 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: that if he keep if if if he keeps doing, 198 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 1: that then we have something. There but, YEAH i, mean 199 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 1: just the way this was, Unlocked i'm like. Again and 200 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: to also think that this was referenced In lebron and 201 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: JJ's podcast like just mere months ago talking about like 202 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: what do we do About? 203 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,079 Speaker 2: Joker like what is like what's the like. 204 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 7: How would you attack him? Defensively and this is how 205 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 7: they described it on the. PODCAST i think that this 206 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 7: really highlights like two things that we've already talked. About there's. 207 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 7: Rebounding gang, rebounding uh is a thing That i've heard 208 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 7: coaches talk about as a thing that you if you 209 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 7: could just get buy in from your players to just 210 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 7: dip into the paint every time a shot goes up 211 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 7: rather than just like going, back you would increase everybody 212 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 7: would get like at least one more rebounded. Game like 213 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 7: it's it's extra, running it's extra, work but it would 214 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 7: have a fundamentally like improved you, know statistical performance for the. 215 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 7: Team but it's hard to get buy in on. That 216 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 7: and like on like doing a you, know mentally taxing 217 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 7: like defensive. SCHEME i think it's probably and and physically 218 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 7: tax defensive. Scheme LIKE i think that's hard to get 219 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 7: buy in on unless the best player on your team 220 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 7: hosted a podcast with you within the past few months 221 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 7: talking about how that is the way to do, It 222 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:17,719 Speaker 7: because then you have to be, like, hey, man let 223 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 7: me play a clip for you you saying it. Yourself, yeah, 224 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 7: yeah but, YEAH i MEAN i do think that's that's 225 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 7: a great thing about having a leader Like lebron who 226 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 7: is so you, know motivated to, win and you, know 227 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 7: if you can get him to buy, in even if 228 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 7: he's not physically at a place where he can be 229 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 7: a shutdown one on one, defender defense and rebounding feel 230 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 7: like two of the things that even if you are 231 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 7: not improving on the personnel, side you see teams improve. 232 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 7: On like from year to, year if they like get 233 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 7: a new coach or you, know they just change a 234 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 7: couple of, things you can see teams improve. There and 235 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 7: then to add on top of, that the biggest personnel 236 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 7: upgrade that we've seen in MODERN nba, history it's gonna 237 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 7: Be it's definitely made this season so much more interesting 238 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 7: to me A sixers fan who you know is in in. 239 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 6: Hibernation you, know it's it's actually super interesting BECAUSE i 240 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 6: think belief plays a role, Too like it's not just 241 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 6: the star the. Start you're making a great. Point the 242 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 6: star buying IN i think is a. Prerequisite but if 243 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 6: you want the star to buy, in he better believe 244 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,319 Speaker 6: he can win the. Title, yeah because to your, point it, 245 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 6: sucks and, like If lebron just views himself as a 246 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 6: second round exit in the, making then he may not 247 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 6: be as willing to fight for all of these little, 248 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 6: things and like one of the interesting details about how 249 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 6: basketball has changed that's made gang rebounding particularly so important 250 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 6: is the amount of switching and having to bring your 251 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 6: big man up to the level of the screen to 252 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 6: deal with pull up. Shooting when that, happens the roleman 253 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 6: gets behind every. Time so there's rebounding mismatches all the 254 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 6: time in. Basketball like you're when you're tagging the, roller 255 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 6: you're tagging him with somebody who's smaller than, him and 256 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 6: so more often than, not like that guy's gonna try 257 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,960 Speaker 6: to box, out but those dudes have to come in 258 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 6: from behind and tap away at the. Ball like it's 259 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 6: not even it's like a. Process it's like that someone's 260 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 6: got to box out the big someone else has to 261 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 6: come in and tap it, out and then a third 262 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 6: dude's got to sprint in and actually get to the loose. 263 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 6: Ball it's like it's such a team concept and like 264 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 6: to your, point like there is mandatory five man buy 265 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 6: in for this type of scheme to, work and it 266 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 6: seems to have come. Together and as far as the personnel, 267 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 6: Upgrade so what's so funny about that is LIKE i 268 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 6: had ad before the season ranked sixth and my player, 269 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 6: rankings And I'm i'm higher on eighty than. Most but, 270 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 6: like even in that, context it's about the, Tiers like 271 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 6: ad is one of the best players in that second 272 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 6: tier of, stars, sure But luca is one of the 273 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 6: few guys in the league that presents like a legitimately unsolvable, 274 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 6: problem which is like you cannot guard him in any 275 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 6: way that's going to stop him from either making the 276 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 6: correct read to the open man or getting a. Matchup 277 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 6: he likes one on one where he can get to 278 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 6: a shot that he can make about half the. Time 279 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,079 Speaker 6: and that's what's going to be really interesting about The 280 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 6: dallas game tonight is Like, denver you, know for all 281 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 6: the trash we talk About luca and what he did 282 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 6: in The boston, series, which by the, WAY i think 283 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 6: is fair. Criticism jokic can't do anything but a high drop. 284 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 6: Coverage if there's a criticism to throw at. Him he 285 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 6: can't run deep drop because he can't protect the, rim 286 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 6: he can't switch because he can't keep people in. Front 287 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 6: he basically has to run that high drop coverage where 288 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 6: he comes up to the level which effectively puts two 289 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 6: on the. Ball so as a base, scheme For. Denver 290 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 6: they exist in, rotation and that's what makes The lakers 291 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 6: such a bad matchup for, them because The luca, thing 292 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 6: he can just skip the ball every. Time and Now 293 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 6: Lebron Austin ruey And Jackson hayes or whoever it is 294 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 6: That Dorian Finney, smith whoever the fifth guy, is they're 295 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 6: just playing four on three all. Night, LOOK i do 296 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 6: think it's interesting to at least consider when we're Discussing, 297 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 6: yokic WHO i still think is the best player in the, 298 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 6: world and because of his jump shooting this, year he's 299 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 6: even gone up a. Level but Like jokic does kind 300 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 6: of trap you into some defensive realities that that can give, 301 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 6: you that can give them some. Issues AND i thought 302 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 6: that was on display as. 303 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 3: Well. 304 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah the guy's a bum. Loser, yeah it's like 305 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 7: they found his one weakness and found the impossible trade 306 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 7: that would exploit it the. 307 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 3: Most and how Is denver gonna guard? 308 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 6: Him? 309 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 3: Like, yeah? HOW i don't know that they have an 310 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 3: answer for that matchup right? 311 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 5: Now? 312 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, YEAH i don't think a lot of people. DO i, 313 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 7: mean who who is the bad matchup for The lakers 314 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 7: in this? FORM i, mean as A i, guess, okay 315 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 7: see is gonna be tough for them to guard and 316 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 7: are so strong defensively around the, perimeter but, YEAH i 317 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 7: guess they're small. 318 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 6: Though they give up four or five inches on every 319 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 6: perimeter player that. Matchup, now the team That i'm actually 320 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 6: really concerned about for them Is boston for the exact 321 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 6: same reason that they had trouble With, dallas which Is 322 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 6: boston feels good switching because they have five good defenders 323 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 6: And boston on the other, end can truly space, Out 324 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 6: like you guys saw those the highlights of That jokic, 325 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 6: scheme like there's three four bodies in the paint at all. Times, 326 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 6: yeah in the in The boston, matchup they're going to 327 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 6: space him out and Attack luca and make them play driving. 328 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 6: Kick and so that that's the real team THAT i 329 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 6: think would be terrifying for The lakers is if they 330 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 6: ran Into. 331 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: BOSTON i don't, like, DUDE i don't even like to 332 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 1: hear that as a, sentence you, know. 333 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 2: Because it's so. 334 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: True and, YEAH i mean because this time we were just, 335 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: daring you, Know Aaron gordon, like. 336 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 2: Yeah go, ahead, man go, ahead shoot, it go, on go. 337 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 2: On Russell wesbrook try your hand at it because we're 338 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 2: trying to neutralize this. 339 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 3: Threat and, YEAH i Don't, yeah they're making them. Too yeah. 340 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 6: Exactly Gordon westbrook And Christian brown made eight threes in 341 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 6: that game and they got blown out and they couldn't. 342 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 3: Score, yeah that was. Wild, yeah, truly. 343 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 7: Is boston coming out of The eastern ere, opinion since 344 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 7: you know a lot about, Basketball i'm just is? 345 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 3: IT i think? 346 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 6: So, yeah if you really look at The cleveland, matchups 347 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 6: Like cleveland definitely plays them a lot tougher Than New york. 348 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 6: Does AND i don't want to write them off completely 349 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,440 Speaker 6: because you can always just imagine a series Where cleveland 350 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 6: has home. Court they're six games, up so like you 351 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 6: can Imagine cleveland gets home, court Maybe porzingis has an, 352 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 6: Injury cleveland takes like a two to zero lead at, 353 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 6: home and then suddenly it's Like boston has to win 354 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 6: four out of. Five, LIKE i don't want to Write 355 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 6: cleveland off. Completely The knicks have no. Chance The, knicks 356 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 6: they're a nightmare matchup For boston because they have two 357 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 6: guys That boston can pick, on and usually they'll pick 358 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 6: on both of them at the same. Time but With 359 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 6: cleveland even to the game That cleveland won earlier this. 360 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 6: Year tatum kind of had them dead to rights late 361 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 6: and Then Donovan mitchell got insanely hot and hit like 362 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 6: three or four threes in a row at the end 363 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,920 Speaker 6: and it ended up stealing that. Game But boston's pretty 364 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 6: much controlled The cleveland matchup this year for the most. Part, okay, 365 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,919 Speaker 6: see it's it's so tough for me to make a 366 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 6: read on them BECAUSE i have this long standing, theory which, 367 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 6: is get a bunch of twenty six year old and 368 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 6: younger type of players in THE nba regular, season and 369 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 6: they are gonna kick ass because they're just gonna play. Harder, 370 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 6: Yeah like a simple way to put it, is all 371 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 6: eight of the top eight rotation players For Oklahoma city 372 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 6: this year are twenty six or. Younger and if you 373 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 6: look at The celtics, Rotation tatum is the only guy 374 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 6: in their top eight who's twenty six or. Younger, so, 375 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 6: like how can you possibly expect like a veteran team 376 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 6: to just bring the same amount of. Energy so Like Oklahoma, 377 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 6: CITY i think they're not quite as good as their 378 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 6: record would lead you to, believe but they still are 379 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 6: pretty damn close to. That and so that's the hard 380 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 6: part to try to like figure out and like they 381 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 6: can bog down, offensively as we've seen several times this 382 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 6: year where it turns into Can shay make enough? Shots 383 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 6: and SO i Think Oklahoma city is a layer of 384 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 6: vulnerability to them that Even boston doesn't. 385 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:05,719 Speaker 7: Have, yeah our only rooting bias on this show ultimately 386 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 7: is we we root for the field against The Boston. 387 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 7: Celtics we we just don't want The celtics to win the. 388 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 7: Championship and we are losing the past year AND i 389 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 7: feel like this year as. Well but, okay really good 390 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 7: man beats. Hip, Yeah, Yeah i'm Gonna we're gonna take 391 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 7: a quick break And i'm not gonna. Cry that has 392 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 7: nothing to do with you asking that.

Way it's 420 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 7: like a you, know a large thing rolling down a. 421 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 7: Hill it's it doesn't usually just turn around and start 422 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:31,959 Speaker 7: going back up. Hill but we'll, SEE i remain eternally, 423 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 7: pessimistic but you, know at least. 424 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 3: They're shutting him down. 425 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 6: Finally like it was driving me crazy watching them in 426 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 6: the last, month Where i'm, like he looks.

Quote is he is that him being? 490 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: Introspective is that him trying, to you, know send a 491 00:24:58,680 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: message to his. 492 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 6: TEAMMATES i think you're trying to send a message in 493 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,239 Speaker 6: And i'm glad he did because he's he's right in 494 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,679 Speaker 6: the sense that they're not good enough right. Now it 495 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 6: actually was kind of funny to see the juxtaposition of 496 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:14,359 Speaker 6: his postgame comments In Jamal Murray's Jamal murray is, like 497 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 6: we beat them a bunch of times in the. Road 498 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 6: this is just you, know this is once you know 499 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 6: that kind of. Thing it's, like, bro this is a 500 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 6: fundamentally different. 501 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 3: Team you. 502 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 6: Know the thing THAT i worry about with them is 503 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 6: more on the defensive, End like even within the scope 504 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 6: of what happened in That lakers, Game, like you, know 505 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 6: do you remember how When lebron was in his, prime 506 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 6: how in like game one of a playoff, series he'd 507 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,880 Speaker 6: almost always look a little shaky and his team would, 508 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,719 Speaker 6: lose and then it became kind of like a narrative 509 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 6: where it was, like, oh it's. 510 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 3: The feel out. Game, yeah, yeah. 511 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 6: Yeah AND i almost felt that way Watching Yo kitchen 512 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 6: that game on, offense where you could Tell yo kitchen was, Like, 513 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 6: oh this is a new thing THAT i haven't really, 514 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 6: seen which is like a small ball group that's legitimately 515 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 6: swarming me and just leaving our work shooters open and 516 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 6: over and over. Again, Yeah and it almost felt like 517 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 6: he was not going to try to overly assert himself 518 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 6: to solve that problem on that, night you know WHAT i. 519 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,640 Speaker 7: Mean see see how his team. 520 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 6: Responds oh, Yeah and there's a version of, like did 521 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 6: you ever feel Like jokics was really trying to bowling 522 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 6: ball his way through everybody in that? Game, No, like 523 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,919 Speaker 6: he barely took a shot at, Ten he barely was 524 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 6: barreling inside for offensive. Rebounds, so, LIKE i think my 525 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 6: takeaway from that game had very little to do with 526 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:30,880 Speaker 6: The lakers defensive. 527 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 3: SCHEME i. 528 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 6: KNEW i knew The lakers would get some stops because 529 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 6: they had been too good of a defense for too 530 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 6: long to not be able to get some. Stops jokic 531 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 6: can do a lot more to try to punish that. 532 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 6: Scheme he talked about after the game about them learning 533 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,239 Speaker 6: and leaning into ball screens instead of post ups, more 534 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 6: which is a good idea because most of most of 535 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 6: their attack there was built around just going to the. 536 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 3: Post but the other end of the floors Where i'm. 537 00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:01,400 Speaker 6: Concerned if you really zoom out through the the three 538 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 6: to four year era of this team being a legitimate championship, 539 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:09,399 Speaker 6: contender when have they not been bad on? Defense like 540 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 6: they very briefly during the like a couple of months 541 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 6: in Like January february of the title, year they were 542 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 6: like eighth in defense for like two, months and then 543 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 6: they were good in the. POSTSEASON i want to give them, 544 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 6: credit albeit they caught some favorable. Matchups they were good 545 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 6: on defense in that. Stretch they've been bad on defense. 546 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 6: Entirely outside of, That they've been bad on defense all. 547 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 3: Year we talked. 548 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 6: Earlier about the reality of the, scheme limitations Of, jokic 549 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 6: and like at a certain point they're going to have 550 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 6: to reach a level on defense to be able to 551 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 6: contend for a, title and they haven't put any sort 552 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 6: of sustained stretch like that. Together they've leaned into their, 553 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 6: Athleticism Peyton watson being out as, hurt but you bring 554 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:58,880 Speaker 6: In Christian, Brown Aaron gordon's getting, Minutes Russell westbrook's getting. 555 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 6: Minutes but the tray off there is if you remember 556 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 6: the title TEAM kcp was a knockdown. Shooter they didn't 557 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 6: have the guys you could really sag off of that 558 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 6: this team. Has and so even though the actual offensive 559 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 6: metrics that this team has put together have looked really, 560 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 6: good and by the, way that's a credit To, jokic 561 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,479 Speaker 6: who's having one of the best offensive seasons in the 562 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 6: history of, basketball there are playoff realities about the way 563 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 6: this team can be guarded now in terms of conceding 564 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 6: things that didn't used to be the. Case it used 565 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 6: to BE, mpj you leave. Them it's going. IN, cacp 566 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 6: you leave. Him it's going. In Jamal, murray you leave. 567 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 6: Him it's going. In, Yeah Aaron gordon you can help off, 568 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 6: of but he's working the baseline and it all comes. 569 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 6: Together but once you tilt that towards there's one more 570 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 6: guy we can help off, of it cuts a little 571 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 6: bit off of the ceiling of the. Offense and as 572 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 6: we talked about, earlier there are some realities in their defensive, 573 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 6: limitations and so now to, me they feel very much 574 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 6: like every other second tier contender we have in this, 575 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 6: league which is like they could run into certain teams 576 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 6: and kick their, butts but then they could run into 577 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 6: other teams and get their butts. Kicked it's very match up. 578 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 6: Oriented teams at the top of the league have more 579 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 6: flexibility and they can survive different types of. Matchups to, Me, 580 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 6: denver it feels like if they catch A, lakers if 581 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 6: they catch A, minnesota there are certain teams that they 582 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 6: can catch WHERE i just feel Like denver would lose, 583 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 6: Now and so that doesn't mean they're out of the. 584 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 6: Picture they certainly could catch like The lakers could end 585 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 6: up losing to somebody else in the first. Round you, 586 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 6: know all these different things could. Go, yeah like it 587 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 6: happens like there's obviously a pathway. There dallas is a 588 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 6: great example, Too Like dallas just kind of meandered their 589 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 6: way through The Western conference and suddenly they're in the. 590 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 6: Finals BUT i definitely think that the versatility and the 591 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 6: types of teams they can beat is really limited with this. 592 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 7: Build, yeah just another context to take that quote in 593 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 7: BECAUSE i like the comparison With lebron And. Yokich they 594 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 7: have always seemed similar to me and that they're just 595 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 7: these like basketball computers that like always make the play 596 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 7: that only they see that it's going to like give 597 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 7: them the best chance at scoring on that play AND 598 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 7: i feel Like, lebron in addition to having those feel out, 599 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 7: games also would like know his team was not going 600 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 7: to win before the rest of us kind of and 601 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 7: like maybe this Is jokic having that same thing where 602 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 7: he's just, like uh, yeah not a lot of lasers out, 603 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 7: there you know WHAT i, Mean like The yokich equivalent 604 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:26,719 Speaker 7: of not a lot of lasers out.
