Klay has completely retooled his shot since being injured. If you're a hooper or a student of the game, you see his traditional follow thru, before his injury, has been altered. Hes pulling his hands away from the ball when he shoots so much quicker. Especially on his MJ-esque fadeaways hes pulled outta his bag. Almost like hes trying to shoot faster than Steph. Hes a true master to be able to rework his shot and, it appers, to better than when he left. It seems hes more proficient post injury. Crazy.

Look man.....the REALITY is this : either the LAL don't know how to play defense...or they DON'T WANT TO. It's simple as that. Either way u slice it....this team was fkkt they day it was put together. It wasn't built to win championships...it was built to RUIN THE LAKER BRAND & REPUTATION.....and it's working perfectly. This is why u hear ZERO comments from Magic Johnson.....because he was the MAIN one who endorsed LBJ coming to LA. But, it didn't take Magic long to realize that he and the mgmt and ownership had been DECIEVED / FOOLED / HYPNOTIZED by LeBron. He wasn't what Magic thought he was. He soon saw what LBJ's REAL intentions were...and he tried to warn Jeannie Buss about LBJ. She refused to listen. LBJ had seized control of the ear and mind of Pelinka and Jeannie. Magic saw that LBJ was gonna ruin the Lakers brand and reputation....and he couldn't do anything to stop it....so he left the organization. Magic is just as much to blame for the Lakers disaster....and he KNOWS it.

[@RunningxRiott]

Its really personal when Steph and Lebron match up, and I love every minute of it. Lebron really is trying to show that he's the greatest of all time whenever he plays Curry's warriors, because of how much respect he has for Curry's legacy himself. It's like a clash of the titans every time they meet. It's no mystery why they produce classic game after classic game.

It was an okay game. Great intensity from the players, but I thought there were way too many ticky tack fouls called.

Lots of free throws shot when the defender clearly didn't commit a foul. I miss the first month of the season...

[@lik7953]

What really confuses me is the fouls they call compared to the ones they don’t. A player will get clobbered but no call, but then another player will breath and they will be issued a foul. Why don’t they just call the obvious fouls? I have no idea

Coach, we need an analysis of Jokic game winning blocks!

[@Mike-.]

Good summary

LEBRON'S DEFENSE HAS OFFICIALLY REACHED FATHER TIME. RIP.

[@ChrisDodges123]

11:13 Jordan woulda CUSSED Russ TF OUT!!!!!! Lol

[@Gainzilla903]

You completely let Lebron off the hook for missing that layup to blame Russ for not passing it sooner. Lebron literally was at the basket and blew that layup.

[@bballbreakdown]

It wasn’t quite a layup tho

[@bluesrockfan36]

Russ was guarded by a long, tall defender, he drove and took the defender out of the play and gave Lebron a wide open dunk at 3-feet away which he hesistated and took a hook shot instead. You can't complain about Westbrook turning it over and at the same time berate him for not making dangerous passes. There is no winning with these people.

[@0devildante0]

@@bluesrockfan36 as long as bron looks good and the scapegoat looks bad, they're content.

[@magahongkong4664]

That Reaves call was not contact but space landing rule.

[@AD3Basketball]

Coach never change your theme music!

[@Thatboygtmike]

steven Adams and Westbrook actually missed the freethrow and made a 3 for the tie/win before.

[@scrollsung]

i believe they knocked out Denver out the playoffs off that play.

[@imhimdk1785]

@@scrollsung huh lol two diffrent games when adam mussed the free throw on purpose that was against houston in the playoffs game 4 or 5 i think. That play u talking about against denver was when he broke the triple double record in the regular season from an inbound play

[@extreame7304]

10:57 One of the best passers my ass

[@7sa_yang]

1:20-1:29 You could just see russ anticipating a miss curry lay up so he can get a rebound to stat pad just a thought

[@keithr.4645]

Great breakdown!

[@Monkey_D_Luffy56]

Warriors' offense is so freaking fun to watch, you'll never see a just standing all of them are moving without the ball

[@Kratos69zzzz]

13:01 yooo this lowlight 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@imhimdk1785]

I think they called a foul but that look like some 2k animation wen u get fouled hard and im a russ fan😭😭

[@maartenvz]

The Warriors were without Draymond Green so it's not that special that the Lakers were able to make it close. I mean, the Knicks just beat the Warriors a couple days before.

[@barclaypierre740]

WICH PLAYER HAS THE MOST FLAIR IN THE LEAGUE?

[@JohnJohn-wp1nv]

I’ve got Wolves at 76ers when D’Lo went off in OT

[@burlacuninel5981]

"Promptly chokes the first one" this is could be the summary of his career. Always chokes when under pressure.

[@Kodreanu23]

What a game!!! How intense this was!

[@HappyGoLuckyPanda]

Awesome commentary as always

[@LEBATO]

1) Warriors miss Draymond A LOT 2) Poole is a total defensively liability 3) Warriors just lost badly to the clippers, and much of the defensive mistakes talked about here were there, except the clippers are a better team than the lakers 4) Warriors need a big man (Wiseman?) - Looney is getting killed by true bigs

[@zeroxyzzz]

Exactly. Warriors need a big men

[@ninjaundermyskin]

I have ivy question and one observation. Q: How has Klay been defensively since he returned? I admit I don't notice that much on the defensive end unless it's a spectacular block or steal. Obs.: LeBron sent Otto Porter Jr. Our of blinds with a push to the back on the final scramble play. OPJ is acting/eggagerating, but there definitely is contact

[@goldenharp5415]

On Klay he’s always been a good perimeter defender always guards Harden or Kyrie etc he’s quite strong so you can’t back him down on the post easily only 1 or 2 lapses in defense judgement so his consistency there is high he was there 2nd best defender behind Draymond rn that goes Wiggins but that’s not that Klay has gotten worse it’s that Wiggins got better Klay it top tier defender for example if the warriors play the Nets Klay will guard Kyrie while Dray and Wiggins would alternate guarding KD

[@CorcorGaming]

You gotta do a vid on the rolling celtics...

[@michaelmamba1578]

4:11 I think that’s more important that just regular season points

[@earthquakenate]

I just don't understand why Dwight and DJ dont play at all? Or why they traded Rondo? Theyd just won a championship and now Vogel allergic to big lineups

[@Tarquin2718]

Without you I would miss half the game. You made my day.

[@theyforce1424]

Nice vid coach and note that steph shot that game like westbrick lol 😆

[@saktalksball9364]

He shot bad period. No need to bring down Westbrook to get your point across.

[@theyforce1424]

@SakTalksBall lol ur right just a joke

[@michaelwhite1012]

Crazy ending and huge sequences down the stretch it was wild basketball game.🏀🤤

[@SicilianDefence]

Thank you coach! A professional breakdown.
