Summary
The beauty of the playoffs are in the adjustments teams make from game to game. And trailing the Suns 1-0 in the series, adjustments are in order for the Lakers. How can they get Anthony Davis going? What are the optimal lineups to create the offensive spacing needed to get LeBron the space he needs to get downhill on drives and to work in the post? How can the Lakers slow down the Suns in their on and off-ball screen actions for Booker and Chris Paul? Pete, Darius, and Mike tackle these questions and more in their look forward to game 2.
