  1. Sengun's offense has taken a step back in the second half of the season as he focused on playmaking and defense, but against the Lakers I expect him to step up his shooting, which alters the dynamics quite a bit.

  2. In short, two teams very much really on their own superstars, Namely Lebron on lakers providing almost everything he has just to win and KD to the rockets to shoot as efficiently as possible and not turn the ball over much.

  3. We need Smart and Rui,and Kennard, and Lavaria, and Ayton to step up their game. We need young Ned Smith to shine too. Ned Smith needs to watch for bad passes.

  4. Lakers key to win is basically asking for a miracle. Basically lebron needs to be the younger version of himself while the role players needs to be the best version of themselves in every aspect

  5. rockets in 6 or 5 even if luka or ar came back there’s no guarantee they’ll be 100% and even if they are it still be tough. although healthy lakers i’d pick in 6 so who really knows. but if lebron plays like hes even 5 years younger then i lean the other way

  6. KD always beat bron due to bron luck of help. LebronxKyrie vs 2017 warriors. Lebron vs 2018 warriors now Lebron vs Houston rockets w/o luka & austin🥹🥲

  7. Am I the only one who thinks the Lakers are going to get smacked around this series? Luka and Reeves, their best player and second best scorer, are hurt and the Lakers defense is nowhere as good as the Rockets defense.

  8. Congrats on the collab bro! Hard work pays off! Content is always so amazing blows other ish out the water! So dope and refreshing getting ACTUAL expertise and analysis on ball. Instead of some washed up player or gasbag on TV with their trash “hot takes.” 🤷‍♂️🤌🏼💯💯💯

  9. lebron and durant have been in the league for so long and are such rivals im surprised they only played 47 NBA games against each other i thought it would be like double that

  10. This is a breath of fresh air…. Analysis based truth and not bias…. No hate on stars and gives thr pros and cons of every player and situation…. Keep it up….i hope you stay lile this and will not chase clout

  11. if sengun starts shooting 3s around 40 percent, he will dominate the league by himself , commentators seem to have low iq on this
