You have to attack the basket to get calls. 32-12 points in the paint advantage for LA. Good lord

Hard to say what will happen second half here. AD definitely doing much better than I thought he would. Lebron has been consistent with his post injury self. Thompson and pool shot well, curry poorly. I would be surprised if Schroeder repeated his first half and ended up with close to 30. Lebron and AD played a game high 19 minutes. That’s a lot for both of them. Kerr managed the starters better outside of curry.

Jeez I did not think russell could score on klay like this. His defense has really dropped off

I don't even know who to root for in this series.  I want both LA and GS to lose.

This is what the Celtics should've done last year. Use Timelord and Horford to play their strengths and dominate the paint. But they wanted to stick with the 3-ball

I hate that some teams would always bail out the Lakers before the trade deadline. What were they thinking?

Curry only has 3 of his points on Vanderbilt. He’s shadowing him on every possession all 94 feet, denying him the ball, forcing him to give it up when he does get the ball, and got him there with the chase down block.

He’s taken Curry completely out of the game.

Great D by Vanderbilt. Never gave up. Chased Curry everywhere.

They should try letting Curry run some high PnRs. Try to get Vanderbilt off of him that way.

Rather than off ball movement.

Does A Reaves remind anyone else of a young Jeff Hornacek?

He doesn't look like he should be a player. He looks awkward at times. Like he shouldn't be able to get to where he wants to get to but somehow he finds a way.

Surprisingly effective. Skilled & versatile offensive player. Strong shooter.

Looks like Darvin Ham or defacto coach LeBron got Curry figured out by putting Vando on him.

And scoring? Unleash the secret weapon AD3 and feed the beast. Time's ticking for the Warriors before they lose home-court advantage.
