We came to play!

But it always makes me nervous when we start out hot, because the tide tends to turn when the Lakers make their run.

Probably means we'll see some Shannon at some point tonight.
That may not be a bad thing. He's been very active and productive the other times he's been in....for about 8 seconds and then Finch pulls him, LOL.
Yeah, no problem at all for me if he gets minutes.

This is where you hope we've matured through experience. With that playoff experience last year, these guys should have learned some poise in situations like that.

Our execution looks good. Gotta avoid fouls and turnovers. Keep crushing them on the boards.

Naz with the block of Luka 3...a thing of beauty, until he blows the layup...

Right, at minimum we want to make LA really work to wrest the lead from us and make them give every last ounce of energy to try to pull it out. Way too early to think this lead is safe.

Up nine. Edwards, Luka and Lebron with 5 total points. Ju 8-3-3 in nine minutes.

I liked Rudy's first stint.

Good vibes from the supporting cast so far. That's a great sign

We're mostly making good decisions. Playing with solid energy. Mostly getting good looks.

I love how we're exploiting their going small by outrebounding them.

NAW with the nice hustle play. He'll need to give us good minutes with Jaden out.

Let's slowly build a lead and keep this crowd out of it.
