What is wrong with the Lakers? + Pistons Powering Up

They haven't really had a single portion of that run where they're truly an elite offense like people assume they have been. I think there's a big difference in what people think they're watching versus what's actually happening. They just don't have any offensive threats from their big man position. You know, shout out Trey Jamison. He gave us some good minutes throughout that time.

Not an offensive threat. Shout out Jared Vanderbilt. Done it a lot for their defensive effort. Negative offensive threat. Christian Coloco, same thing. They just don't have any type of lob threat, any type of dunker spot threat. As good as Jackson Hayes has been playing, he's not a super big threat there to do anything other than catch open dunks.

What is wrong with the Lakers? + Pistons Powering Up

It's really hard to have a good offense without those release valves, no matter how good your big ball handlers are. Luka doesn't look quite the same. A big part of it is he has no good screen setters. He's really having to do a lot more isolation than he likes to. if you're looking for a fatal flaw, I think that's it more than defense.

Like a 31% three-point shooter goes to 42. That's the definition of March basketball. Yeah, 100%. I'm also not going to deny that the bulls are fun. Like they're legitimately playing good basketball. I think modest was Ellis is one of the most exciting young players in the league since he started becoming a big, heavy part of the rotation. I think you're seeing him grow into his body more.

His handles looking really good. He's already a really good driver and knows how to use his length to make plays there. I don't know if his efficiency is quite as like showing someone that's a good driver, but for a rookie, you see the signs, obviously Kobe White's doing everything you said, Josh Giddy's slashing. Well, shouldn't,

I think they would say they're up to pace anyone. I think their kind of approach to the game and the kind of tenacity that they bring on a nightly basis that can usually lead into, not usually, but has led into scuffles throughout the season. I think that's kind of the approach that they bring and they would tell you it doesn't really matter.
