Like, nobody's uncomfortable at any point on the floor.

And the Lakers have an older LeBron James who can only give it to you in spurts.

Like, in game one, he had a great game, but he gave it to you in spurts.

It wasn't like he was flying up and down the floor.

This wasn't game one of the 2018 NBA Finals where he emptied the tank and almost took out one of the greatest teams we've ever seen.

He gave you 25 efficient YMCA points.

Oh, man, I'm going to get on the break because I'm at half court.

You know, like that type of thing.

There's only so much that he can do.

And Luka's not coming back.

And Austin Reeves...

He didn't give you anything because he's still recovering from injury.

The Lakers don't have many options.

It's funny, Dan, because in this era of parody, the way that we evaluate great teams or great errors has to change because back to backs no longer exist in the way that we think of them.

Right.

The last team to go back to back was the 1718 Golden State Warriors, and it took for them to get Kevin Durant.

for them to go back-to-back and break the game.

And even by then, Dan, remember, they went to Game 7 in the Western Conference Finals against the Houston Rockets of James Harden and Chris Paul, and it took 27 straight missed threes for them to get to the finals.

And that was one of the single...

season greatest teams we've ever seen.
