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

If they want to win a championship, um, he doesn't need to do that every night, but he needs to like hit really difficult shots and like decode and break down all the different things that the Los Angeles Clippers are throwing at him, um, instantly. And I thought that he was just so, I mean, I thought that that was the best game any individual has played in this post season. Um,

I think that, you know, going back to the conversation we were having about Halliburton I've just been so impressed with J.B. Bickerstaff's commitment to making Jalen Brunson work on defense, which is something he did not do a couple years ago when he was the head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers. Did a little bit.

I thought he could have pressed that button a lot harder and more frequently in that series. But he has Cade Cunningham now, and he didn't have Cade Cunningham then. And I think Cade has been tremendous defensively. you know, not perfect turnovers or whatever, but his decision making in the pick and roll when, uh, they go at Brunson in a variety of different ways has been pretty excellent.

And I want to see Brunson's general like mobility and the ability of also like whoever he's guarding, if it's Tim Hardaway Jr., if it's a Sar Thompson to really, really capitalize. And I thought both of them have done, it's been up and down, but yeah, They both impress me, I think, generally. So that's what I'm looking for is Jalen Brunson's defense.

And, you know, I, I think Kate is the best player or has been, and maybe is the best player in the series. I don't, I'd have to maybe think about that a little bit harder. But I just... I love Cade. And I love Asar Thompson. And I love his defense. Full court pressure on Jalen Brunson. I think that's made a big difference in this series.
