Jovan Buha

He's incredible. You know, I'm fortunate enough to have a vote this year and I'm going to strongly consider voting for him for defensive player of the year. He's certainly going to be on my ballot. But just where he ends up, I still have to make that decision and go through all the film and the numbers and whatnot. But he I mean, he's like the one thing I would also take away.

from tonight what was earlier in the season the Lakers kind of came into their small ball identity against the Warriors there was that Christmas Day game where Austin they're running a lot of screening actions with Austin and he was attacking Golden State the short roll and like from that point on they make the DFS trade they start to build that up and then they play the Warriors three times over the span of a month and it felt like the Lakers from a small ball perspective were actually able to match if not

outplay that the warriors and then again ad was a part of that but but tonight it just felt like golden state was controlling everything and obviously the driving force defensively was draymond and just his ability to also offensively he attacked the lakers a bit in that third he got hot he had a couple threes he had got to the rim hit a three with steph standing wide open right next yeah

But defensively, he was guarding LeBron a lot and switching and doing Draymond things. And I think he really did a good job of protecting the defensive glass, protecting the rim. And it was a big part of why LA was forced to take so many uncharacteristic mid-range jumpers. Because this is not a mid-range heavy team. JJ Redick has basically outlawed it as an analytics-friendly coach.

He does not want them taking mid-range jumpers. Tonight, they took a bunch of them. And that was largely because of Draymond and his defense.

Another interesting night. We have playoff implications on the line with a lot of these games. But before we get to the games that actually have some weight in the standings, we got to talk about the former. Best record holder in the league, the Cleveland Cavaliers, for the first time all season, they don't have the best record in the league. They lost their third straight game to the Kings.
