Summary
The Lakers lost their weekend matchup against the Warriors in a game Anthony Davis left after the 1st quarter to an eye injury. Pete, Darius, and Mike discuss the game, how AD's absence impacted the outcome, how LeBron's brilliance offensively kept them in it, and much more. And then later, the guys discuss how the review process and multiple game stoppages ruined the end of that game and why they think changes are needed in order to fix this process for a better viewing experience.

| 0:00.0 | What do you think about the Laker team now? |
| 0:03.5 | You follow the box scores of the games every day? |
| 0:06.0 | Just the Lakers. |
| 0:07.3 | You're kidding. |
| 0:08.6 | That is really a compliment. |
| 0:12.8 | I was pleased to see you smile at the top bar show because once the game starts, you have a game face. |
| 0:17.8 | You don't smile much out there. |
| 0:20.4 | I don't think you have to do things for money anymore. Correct. What's up, Laker fans? Welcome to the Laker Film Room podcast. I'm Pete, joined by Darius and Mike. And on Saturday, Lakers fell to the Golden State Warriors. And a game started out well. First quarter was good. Lakers got a little bit of a lead. I saw some of that AD Jackson Hayes, two big lineup I've been pining for. I was like, yes, we're here. We're doing it against a team that's not even big. All right, we're, we're there. And then with 247 left, Anthony Davis gets poked in the eye. And you see as that quarter progresses, he keeps playing for most of the rest of the quarter, all but the last three seconds. |
| 0:56.1 | And every time they cut to him, it's like, man, AD's eyes a little more swollen. |
| 1:00.6 | And it's a little more swollen. |
| 1:01.8 | And then he never comes back into the game. |
| 1:04.0 | It ends up being swollen shut. |
| 1:05.3 | He's questionable for tonight's game against Atlanta. |
| 1:08.1 | But D, on a Lakers team that was already kind of on life support in terms |
| 1:11.7 | of defensive personnel, losing Anthony Davis is a kill shot. And Lakers competed. I thought |
| 1:17.6 | LeBron was brilliant. He was a combination of knocking down his jumper and bullying guys who were |
| 1:22.9 | too small to guard him, which was great to see. So Lakers are down by seven, which we thought was four |
| 1:28.9 | on a sidestep LeBron three. He did step on the line just barely, and they go back to a couple |
| 1:34.2 | possessions later and fix that. And just the craziest ending to the game, actually, no, that's |
| 1:40.0 | way too complimentary to say that it's crazy as though it was exciting. An awful ending to the game. |
| 1:44.4 | It takes about 20 minutes. There have been about five or six pods this year, guys, where I've wanted |
| 1:48.9 | to go on some sort of rant about the video review process around the NBA. I won't do it here |
