| 0:14.9 | Let's go over to Los Angeles where things are going swimmingly. |
| 0:19.3 | They have two games under their belt. |
| 0:22.8 | Let's be honest. |
| 0:24.2 | I'm reveling in being right. |
| 0:26.1 | I am reveling in the feeling of so rightness that I don't even know what to say. |
| 0:33.7 | This is a complete and total meltdown, a complete teardown, following an opening beatdown, which we knew was going to say. This is a complete and total meltdown, a complete tear down. Following an opening |

| 1:41.1 | We don't have any guys that are 40% career three-point shooters. |
| 1:46.2 | Their Laker guards shot one for 25 from three. That's pretty bad, including an incredible |
