Austin Reaves' creation has been otherworldly this season...
Ridiculously efficient scorer with 61.5% of his FGA coming unassisted. Creating for others. Getting to the line a bunch. Just a very special offensive player flat out.

Imagine being 1-9 and your teammate is talking about Saddams body guards.
Saddam Hussein kept Christians as his personal staff the people feeding, clothing and bathing. If you ask why? Saddam believed their religious views made them less likely to kill themselves trying to kill him. He was talking about the people with direct access to Saddam’s food and body, not his military commanders.
I’d never heard that account before but this is very telling

What a finish by the Lakers. Winning back-to-back games on the road w/o stars in each game. Still time for early entry on the JJ Redick Coach of the Year Express!

Wiggins is throwing games
Chose THJ over Simons
Giannis scared of Draymond
No shot creation on the team
Can’t take care of the ball
Lost to ‘Podz’ of all people
3-6 start in the Giannis era
I really am speechless right now.

Giannis on Luka: he’s one of the best scorers
Reporter: right now for sure
Giannis: No, the best of all time. Some people are afraid to say it but I’m not. Definitely one of the best scorers of all time.

In one of the first episodes of Mind the Game, when Redick was still on the show, he explained some of the terminology his teams used defensively.
Here you can hear the Lakers call "Green!" on the postup double against Barnes, Luka steals the ball from the baseline side.

Spoke with a couple of players postgame who acknowledged that if they were trying to guard the Lakers right now, they’d trap and pressure as much as possible.
The Lakers, for the first time this season, looked truly disconnected - the Warriors pressure defense exposing them. (Free to read) nytimes.com/athletic/77409…
