Tom Zayas & Cranjis McBasketball discuss the week in Lakers basketball, briefly touching on the disappointing Charlotte loss and gritty Portland win before diving deep into the statement win at Denver. They break down why the Lakers' defensive gameplan worked, including how they "whited" Jokic in the post, how their defensive matchups showed a cohesive plan, their ability to limit Denver's Offensive Rebounding, and were able to filter shots to non-Jokic players. Later, they discuss LA's Offense, including why Luka eliminates their need to call drop-beating concepts, why the Lakers should have actually scored even MORE than they did, and how Denver's defense appeared vulnerable to LA's attacks.
