Yeah unless he is messing around pregame, I didn’t like that clip at all. |

FRANKIE V PRESSER TODAY - Nothing On Injuries But Interesting Info Nonetheless
Per Trudell
Frank Vogel said he’s been very impressed w/Miami, pointing to how well coached they are and how hard they play. He considers the Heat to have 3 All-Star caliber players in Butler, Adebayo and Dragic (“I’ve always though Goran Dragic, when healthy, is an All-Star level player.")
https://twitter.com/lakersreporter/status/1310683358628724736?s=21
Vogel said that, while Miami is unique, there are elements from LAL’s 3 Western Conference opponents that are applicable to this Finals matchup. LAL saw and dealt with a lot of diff. looks from POR/HOU/DEN.
https://twitter.com/lakersreporter/status/1310683618545549312?s=21
Frank Vogel said that Bam Adebayo is “already there” as a star.
The Lakers do have elite personnel to contend with Bam in Anthony Davis, Dwight Howard and even LeBron, but LAL didn’t really see a player like him in the Western playoffs.
https://twitter.com/lakersreporter/status/1310684676881694720?s=21
Vogel said the Lakers enjoyed the night they beat Denver in 5, but it’s been “All business” since then. There’s no eye towards getting home yet.
They’re single-minded in their focus on beating Miami, he said.
https://twitter.com/lakersreporter/status/1310685173114007553?s=21
Vogel was asked about Dwight Howard, who was so impactful against Jokic in the WCF, and acknowledged that he’d be important to this matchup, suggesting that he’ll spend some time on Bam.

DAY TO DAVIS
Ah boy
Per Faigen
AD being listed as a "right heel contusion" after it was previously a sprained ankle is worth watching, but he (and everyone else) are probable so don't worry too much everyone

CLARIFICATION ON AD
Per Faigen
Small update after looking at the injury reports again: AD was listed for Game 5 in the WCF with a sprained LEFT ankle.
Before Game 1 of the Finals, it's a RIGHT heel contusion (he's probable to play).
Just wanted to clarify that the ankle seems to be good, this is different.

Crazy if Dragic tries to play through that injury - would show a lot of heart. You would just hope he doesn't make it worse, with FA around the corner. With that said, it will be on us to attack and exploit their injured players as much as possible throughout the rest of the games. |

Heat lucky it's a strain, during the game I thought he had separated his AC joint jumping into Dwight like that |

AS OF LAST NIGHT LAKERS ARE HOLDING STEADY
No news is good news on a Friday morning. This went up last night. Obviously I will update as we get closer to the game.
Per Faigen (IR press release at link)
The Lakers' injury report is basically unchanged from Game 1
https://twitter.com/hmfaigen/status/1311803574247059462?s=21
The release reads as follows: - Anthony Davis (right heel contusion), Danny Green (Volar plate injury, left ring finger), LeBron James (sore right groin) are probable. |

TD any news on Bam or Dragic? I see a lot of Laker fans assuming they are both out for at least Game 2, if not the series, but nothing official has been reported, I don't think. |

THE HEAT ARE REALLY TRIPPING RIGHT NOW
Per Woj (full ESPN story at link)
ESPN story on Heat All-Star Bam Adebayo out for Game 2 of NBA Finals:
https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1312131761892065280?s=21
Per Faigen
Small update on Dragic in here too
“
Heat guard Goran Dragic, who sources say suffered a plantar tear of the left foot in Game 1, is expected to make a final decision on playing in Game 2 later Friday, sources said.
Dragic has been able to put some pressure on the foot, sources said, but the injury is painful and hampers mobility.”

A GOOD COACH SAVES PLAYERS FROM THEMSELVES - BAM AND GORAN
Per Faigen
Erik Spoelstra said he had to "play the role of not just coach, but parent these last 24 hours" because Goran and Bam were both lobbying so hard to play.
"I ultimately had to take the decision out of their hands for tonight."
