They couldn't do anything, but they could backdoor cut.

Gary Payton II can get into the middle of your zone and

what okay that is a guy that you're not that worried about to be fair but I'm just saying like he's but that is the that is the mark like that is the issue that is the issue like yeah Gary Payton the second all he does is lurk in the back line of zones that's all he does and you've got

massive people back there, not able to stop him from ducking in, getting a pass.

All of these things have to conspire, right?

A pass, he has to get to the right spot on the floor.

A pass has to get through the length of the Lakers, and then he has to finish at the basket.

And all of that is happening with the Lakers wide awake.

And that's the issue.

I think Reddit sent this rant to Zena and was like, hey, Zena, throw this on the show.

Hey, look, before we go to break, don't think...

I don't want to talk about Lou Dort and Nikola Jokic.

OK, look, we got OKC Denver on Friday night.

This was an absurd game that was physical from the jump.

I mean, yeah, I don't know how many times I've seen Shea react the way that he did.

And Jokic react to Shea in those moments, too.

Feels like there's some some bad blood maybe left over from that seven game series.

But also, I think the Thunder, if you play a seven game series against a team that is this physical.

There is no way you're going to like him at the end of it.

And I think that this, man, we got to get this in the conference finals.
