Ham won't see the same thing next game. Lets see what adjustments Ham makes _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.
They are delusional. 40% from the 3 on high volume is not good enough for them. Their team only shoots about 32% during regular season. Now warriors shot over 40% in first round. Poole only 25%
AD needs to becareful, saw a few times where GS was trying to get in his landing space but make it look unintentional. The one against Looney AD kept his foot off the ground because he saw what Looney was doing.
Another time Wiggins tried a sneaky dive at AD’s legs.
Dirty (bleep). They are trying to take out AD without making it look obvious.
Great road win but Ham almost cost them playing that unit so many minutes in a row. That is scary man, stuff like that - we got away with it tonight but he can't be doing this stuff.
He goes from one extreme to the other man, it's like he platoon subs or he doesn't sub at all
No reason you can't spot rest with Wenyen or Rui more down the stretch
I did like how he kept AD in at the start of the 4th to keep things stable, but get him at least 2-3 mins - Wenyen did more than fine
With the exception of not giving more minutes to Rui Hachimura and Wenyen Gabriel to give a little bit more rest to LeBron and Anthony Davis, his matchups were on point ham didn’t do anything to screw this game up. He actually called a good game as a coach he took Beasley out of the lineup and he was calling good time outs.
He was good overall I don't disagree there, but with only 1 day off between games - I don't think he can play the rotation that tight.
Lebron settling at the end of the game there was fatigue, use Rui for 4-6 minutes he is much more spry to close the game. Same with AD but I get wanting to grab this one while we could sniff it.

Yeah. Never forget that they only won the 2017 championship because Zaza Pachulia stepped under Kawhi Leonard during game 1 while down by 20. _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:
Warriors can win any game, home or road, also lose any game. It is all depending on their 3. We can’t assume they won’t win a game in crypto.com arena. We have to try to take game 2
Warriors are a team that I would not rest on even if we are up 3-0. They have tons of championship experience and resiliency. Even though their regular season record on the road was atrocious they still found a way to win on the road in the playoffs last round.

You know what I saw this as well!
I thought I was just being paranoid, some sneaky sh$t

Yeah, that was pretty sneaky and devious of them. Look for Draymond to go dirty if they get desperate.
Lakers took GS’ best shot and still won with no one outside of AD had a great game. Now go get game 2 before GS catch their breath and figure
out adjustments.
Past 6 playoff games I believe he is 6-41 from 3. (14%)
This entire playoffs through 7 games: 9-49 (18%)
I mean geez...this is beyond a slump at this point. It's atrocious _________________ "One thing I admire about Kuzma is his unwavering confidence. He truly has no idea that he’s not as good as he thinks." - Killer_Z

also cp3 got injured in game 7 of their wcf. GSW are one lucky bastards in all their rings.

Law of averages right? I mean at some point he has to get hot right?
Sure as hell hope so but for the season he fell below his career average and is starting to enter...Westbrook sort of bad. _________________ "One thing I admire about Kuzma is his unwavering confidence. He truly has no idea that he’s not as good as he thinks." - Killer_Z

He can't hit water if he fell out of a damn boat. Well Westbrick got hot. Why not LeBrick?
His first month he shot like 26% on 40 plus attempts and then the next month shot 37%. He’s streaky as well. He’s the worst three point shooter but round 1 led all players in the whole playoffs in 2 point shooting. and defense had been on point along with rebounding . That 3 will hit soon enough
Will say he’s not doing the side step three since he got hurt though, so maybe he just can’t push off like he used to for the shot
Can we agree that this is now Anthony Davis’s team
LeBron James is an all-time great player. It’s time to pass the torch.
He's been trying to pass that torch for 2-3 seasons now... A lot of people here thought AD didn't want it. But it looks like he is ready this playoffs.
It's just tough nowadays to neutralize runs. The Warriors nearly blew a lead in game 4 of their series against the Kings. The Bucks blew 2 big leads against the Heat that has them out of the playoffs now. The Celtics blew a big lead to the Hawks in game 5 that forced a game 6.
I don't think any team in the NBA is completely capable of stopping them anymore.
The Lakers just need to try and limit them as possible. I think a good start is to stop going away from what's working on offense. The Lakers need to try and manage their rotations better throughout the game if the Lakers are too tired to do that at the end of the game. You may not get as big of a lead, but it's a really scary proposition to hand the other team all the momentum at the end of the game.
