    okay nice block by DFS. I would still like to see JO. DFS looks like he is 4 steps behind when he is playing man defense.

    Our players look liberated without KD. There is joy, heart and hustle.

    In game 1 in particular, the Lakers played out of their minds.

    Reed just can't pick up a dumb 3rd foul. Stay on the court, he's our best playmaker by far (finding the open guy).

    KEEP UP THE ENERGY ON D!

    The lakers seem to be ok giving this away.

    their intensity to start this series was actually pretty impressive

    out guys also don’t have the nerves they did initially, they have their backs to the wall with nothing to lose
