Pete, Mike, and Darius discuss the game, hitting on LeBron's big buckets to force overtime and then seal the game in OT, D'Angelo Russell's big shots in the 4th quarter, Dennis Schröder's defense, and all of Austin Reaves' timely plays. Then later, they guys discuss Anthony Davis' role in the Lakers' defensive identity on a night he struggled on offense.
