Don that is creative on the angle and another chance of the three-point play. That’s what JJ Re said the team has to be so aware of.

Marcus Smart, I tell you, he does some things you got to watch games really appreciate because they don’t all after being down at the half by a significant margin. There’s Dantes count a little magic from Luca to start the game down home by Wear the 7footer from Indiana. Well, they want that development from Wear because he’s really agile. He runs the floor real well and a good pick and roll guy. Jack threw it down, big fella. Jackson Hayes returns to favor on the screen and roll. He led the Lakers last year with a He surveys the floor looking for a possible outlet with the dribble. The spin Mitchell of course their best defender is on him. Look at this swift pass crosscourt by Luca. I have no idea by Ruie. I have no idea how that pass got through. It was not over the top of anything. It was like a straight arrow about 6 ft off the ground. Here’s a wide for the Lakers. So they being Donic and Ree. They def the jam and it’s all about Jackson Hayes right now.

Louisie attacking. can’t score it. Connects right before the buzzer and it cost Portland in it. Like I said, they went real early. You never go that fast so that you get the opport production going for the Lakers. But he’s got all five bench points. Is it going to be more? Looking for three. Nick, what you have to do to defensive pressure like that? You have to get by him and attack. It’s a nice return for him to Portland. Threeon one. Nick Smith the left. Oh, and it goes in. That’s not what Ruie expected. The results is what he expected. Exactly. We’re tied at 66 last night on that twoonone dunk delivered by Austin Reed. Lavia is on the floor.

That’s a tough. Boy, he’s really called for, wasn’t he? Here’s Nick trying to get around clinging now. Bonnie underneath. A good pass and the finish by Jack on the assist by James. Really nice driving. Of course, you don’t have Luca, you don’t have Reeves. And this your two primary or even LeBron corner the three for two. Is he out again? He is on the second of the back to back trying to get it to Aton. He’s got it with five for four. Bry good pass. Aton scores. The Laker colors and playing underneath once, twice. Now he’s going to have to bring it up again. Again. Why not? Yes. Why not? On fire. [Applause] Oh, it’s really nice to see people that, you know, you don’t really expect it from just keep away time. Under a minute to play to ladies and gentlemen, say good night. And Donic and no Austin Reeves [Music] to Hayes. Beautiful connection between those two as Donic gets his second assist. Lock thread will be there with womenyama out of the gate. Smith not only 25 points the other night had six assists as well. Dotic with a lot of contact there. Still puts it in. Looked like two different Spurs hit him. That’s the exact same call. He just got the foul call on them. Mclaclin stolen by Smart on the drive. Pitch it up to Jackson Hayes. Ronnie James gets inside. Shoots in the paint. Gets it to go. No hesitation there from Bronny James. Good decision right there when he wanted to release that ball because big risk here with 5 minutes left in the second quarter playing with three. He’s got to be careful. Not just doubled looking finds Aima wide open. Boy, that was tough to see that he was surrounded and Aimi finally gives him that assist. Seven assist for Donic. Luca looked over to the bench, gives gives the bow, but watch this. Takes it, throws it over his shoulder. No. Wy comes back in. So they treaded water nicely. Luca on the perimeter. Wide open three. Got it. Luca Don throws his hands up. That’s only his second make. Bel comes up well short. Connect was right on his heels. Donic makes his move, gets inside. Alioops the finish. Luca Najic with his 10th assist to go with 25 points and he on the bench. But these last few possessions there was just nothing happening. No offense creation. Alioop counted and a foul. Dodis the perfect pass and Hayes throws it down and a chance for a three-point play. Perfect trailer play for the Lakers. Back to six again. And that’s now six turnovers for Stefan Castle. And you just can’t turn the ball over like that against the zone defense. Shot blocked by Aton. And a whistle. It’s going to go against two-point game. Smart throws it down. And a whistle. No. Did he go over the line? He didn’t get behind the line. Wow. What? What? What? Yeah. A violation on the inbound. And Castle cuts. Olen looking. Lobs it up. Champagne. No. Won’t go for the whistle. [Applause] Shy misses. [Applause] Second one. No good. almost tipped in. Wow. Ken and the Lakers survive and win their fifth in a row. Luca, you guys come back from nine points. This was a strange game. Three hours. How would you describe this one? It was strange. You know, uh they have an amazing team. They only lost one game. Uh so to come back, you know, being with AR, LeBron out, uh it’s unbelievable. You know, all these guys, uh they fight every every moment of the game. So, uh it’s so fun to play with them. To your point, your big man DeAndre Aton has had a fantastic game and a fantastic start to the season. Marcus Smart was everywhere you needed him to be. Out of bounds. Yeah, the baseline out of bounds aside, but just what do you say about those guys and their play? I mean, it’s unbelievable. Uh, like I said before, they fighting like crazy. Uh, DA has been having an amazing start. Smart helps everybody on the court. Uh, so like I said, it’s so much fun to play with those guys. I’m just happy to get a win. You guys did a fantastic job defensively on Wyama before the game. I don’t know if you know this, he said that you’re the hardest guy to scout because you’ve mastered the game. What is it like to compete against someone like him? I mean, it might be him. He’s the hardest guy to to scout because he’s unbelievable. you know, he moves like that at 75, 74, uh, whatever he is, uh, it’s just unbelievable. Shot making, playmaking, uh, those games are fun, man. Going against him, a lot of respect, a lot of love. So, uh, those games are fun. All right, last one. I know you and Austin have some fun trash talk back and forth. What’s he going to tell you tonight? Make my free throws. All right, Luca, congratulations. Here, all right, congratulations. [Music]
