Only one day off in between games. I'm a little concerned for LeBron. We took back home court advantage so this winning this game would be icing on the cake.

| If this game gets out of control Ham better pull the stars quicker than he did in Memphis. Took home court, need to hold it. |

They rested well on defense. This is unlike the grizzlies series. |

At least this isn't a physical series like the Memphis one

I expect this, lakers probably come out without energy and won’t waste more trying to make a comeback
However really hope ham adjusts to the zone and distributing minutes. Rui needs to play 25+ game 2 |

| One adjustment Kerr will make the stop playing Payton because he doesn’t have anyone to guard and is useless on offense |

Yup, Rui needs to be at 20+ minimum if they do play a lot of zone . He really should regardless as the Warriors have nobody to put on him in most lineups and he can be a zone killer. |

| DLO and AR need to be ready, they will play a lot of zone in game 2. If we can get a good shooting night from Lebron, that will be cherry on top. |

And for heaven's sake, please stop shooting 3s Bron.
That one at the end was the dumbest shot we took that night. |

A Game 2 victory is more in our hands than the Warriors:
- No major injuries
- Hopefully AD continues to impose his will on the defensive end and the boards (his offense icing on the cake).
- Hypnotize LeBron to convince him to STOP TAKING LONG SHOTS!!!
- Do our best to run Curry and Klay off the three point line without fouling.
If we can do that while playing BIG lineups more often than not like the first game.... easy peasy, lemon squeezy!  |

| Looney got 23 rebounds and only 7 on the offensive side. I believe 5 of them are in 2 possessions. With AD in there, he is not getting those offensive rebounds |

| If we could just limit them to even only making 3x more threes than us instead of 4x more like today…we win every game comfortably |

This is a Must Win for the Warriors, but I hope we get greedy and kick their butts anyway.
GO FOR THE WIN LAKERS!!! |

| Lots of juice left to squeeze in terms of AR production, Rui production. And I doubt they make 21 3s again because we'll be tighter on guys like JaMychal Green. Game 2 is totally winnable. Just stay healthy 🤞 |
