The Lakers have been down by 20 points in two games thus far. That's a big worry.
No the 1st game was meaningless. The Lakers had a lot of rust to shake off and SAS was in rhythm for their Game 7.
I fail to see what point Kenny is trying to make. Yes, the Spurs have been up by 20 points....they've also been outscored by 20+ as well. Should they take heart in being up by 20 pts on 2 occasions or beat themselves up over the Lakers putting up some monster runs?
The adjustments by the Spurs:
- Play one-on-one defense at every position
- Give Kobe room to make him a jump shooter. He may score, but no assists
- Give Odom room to make him a jump shooter
- Play tight on Fisher. Since he's a jump shooter, he's not effective
i think that (bolded) was a key adjustment. they didn't let the others get involved w/ easy shots near the basket. _________________ #2 Lonzo

i'm not worried after this loss. these are the spurs that were playing. anybody who thinks we'd be sweeping them is stupid. the stage is set, lakers up 2-1. big game coming up on tuesday. i can't wait!

Quite sad that our players cannot create without Kobe. With the Bulls, they had Pippen who could create. Spurs have Manu and Parker. We only have Kobe. Dangerous times indeed.
I think we need to move Kobe into the post. _________________
I believe Rosen stated that Phil had seriously over simplified the triangle offense in Games 1-3. We haven't used Kobe in the pinch post at all in this series.
I expect to see Phil throw in some more variety in Game 4. I love it when Kobe operates out of the post, Bowen is not nearly as effective a post defender as he is face-up.
