The Zach Lowe Show
Round 1 Winds Down: Lakers Eliminated, Game 6 Previews, and More With Michael Pina

I also think that the Milwaukee Bucks as an organization should do their due diligence and make a really smart decision this offseason. And I... I don't say that lightly. I know how important Giannis is to that community and that franchise. And he's one of the best players in the history of the sport. But the future, if you hang on to him, is just particularly bleak, in my opinion.

I mean, their defense and their physicality will carry over for sure. But honestly, Zach, I think that this was way more about the Warriors than it was about the Houston Rockets. And the Houston Rockets played a really great game. A lot of it was their shot making.

I think Steve Kerr said in his press conference that their effective field goal percentage at halftime was like 90-something percent, and it was the highest that he'd ever seen. So their shot making was terrific.

I thought that just watching the game live, that from the jump almost, in the first couple minutes of the game where Draymond Green commits a foul, Steph commits a foul, Jimmy Butler commits a foul, all in the first three-ish minutes, two and a half minutes, Defensively, they didn't have it. They weren't locked in.

And then also offensively, I thought that it was kind of curious how committed they were to attacking Alper and Shang-Goon with Steph Curry in the pick and roll, knowing that Rockets are going to blitz that. And if you keep doing it, the Rockets, very smart defensive basketball team, Their help will be early behind the play. And they don't really care about, you know, Jimmy Butler off ball.

They don't care about Draymond Green off ball. And the spacing isn't great. And so I was kind of... You know, they got good stuff like the first two times they ran it. And then they kept going to it. And it was kind of, you know, in that first quarter when Houston was going on its run and making their shots. And I was kind of just...
