Summary
What sort of adjustments can we expect when the Lakers and Warriors face off in Game 2? Will the Warriors play and, potentially, start the game smaller? Will they put the ball in Steph's hands more? How can the Lakers get a more efficient scoring night from LeBron? Pete and Darius discuss these questions and more in their preview for Thursday's game. Then later, Mike is joined by none other than Lakers radio announcer and his former radio co-host (and father of Klay), Mychal Thompson to discuss Mychal's unique perspective on this series.

| 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, brought you by the Blue Wire Podcast Network. I'm Pete, joined by Darius. But for now, today's podcast is going to have a bit of a split personality of sorts. The first half of it is going to be Darius and I geeking out over game |
| 0:38.4 | two adjustments. And then part two is going to be kind of a revisit of a classic LA ESPN radio show |

| 0:51.1 | dad, right, but also Lakers radio announcers. So Thompson and Trudel, great L.A. radio show, |
| 0:56.9 | Dee, that I hope everyone enjoys Michael's perspective in the second half. But let's start, |
