I’m honestly posting to ask for some knowledgeable reasoning. I understand the lakers are great at creating turnovers, but why are teams able to get such easy looks against us. I understand we don’t have Dwight or McGee anymore, but it seems like we are always playing 1v1. We seem to switch everything off the pick and roll, often times putting our players at a mismatch. I also noticed we try to go over the screens and opponents are able to take a wide “loop” towards the rim. I saw this slow in the thunder games.

They held the Nuggets to just 30 points in the paint yesterday, too bad their players became Curry hitting those 3s.
