Felt like Lonnie was coming in when Poole came in. I think because he's usually too small or thin to guard bigger guards, but Poole is the perfect matchup. Great call by the staff.
The adjustment to put reaves on curry was a great move bc gsw set so many screens that whoever is guarding Steph isn’t really guarding him due to all the screens. Putting vando on draymond was smart bc dray usually sets the screen which effectively puts vando on curry. It also allows LA to switch on defense instead of going over screens which takes away the “chasing” and saves energy for our players…was a great adjustment. We don’t need Austin’s offense this series. He hasn’t played particularly well anyway. Switching everything is how the cavs came back 3-1 against gsw in 2016..
No one was praising and talking about Lonnie Walker before.. But , ALL OF SUDDEN !!!!! EVERYONE IN THE COMMENT SECTION SWEARS THEY WERE ALL ABOUT LONNIE WALKER
I never understood why Beasley was given such a long lease over Lonnie. Beasley's known as a shooter but what else can he do? Lonnie is extremely athletic, can hit three's or drive to the rim or get his own shot. He's a decent defender also so he has to be part of the rotation from now on.
having reaves on curry was not a miss did you even see the game? having vando on draymond was perfect for whenever curry got a screen so he could switch onto him
I've been saying this all along, that Walker should get much more playing time, because he makes Curry and Clay work on defense, Walker and the bench are the key to the Lakers success, I hope that the coach knows that!💯
This is great for Reaves to build stamina. Aha. Jokes aside, I like it, due to the fact that they like to do that screen with Draymond and would have a slower defender on Steph. So having Reaves on Steph and when going to the screen, he gets switched with Vando. Hence Vando not having to constantly fight over screens and what not to get to Steph. Also Vando has a long enough reach to cheat and go under and still recover. So we get conditioning training for Reaves and effective switches with Vando. Win win.

Should Lonnie Walker be a part of the Los Angeles Lakers rotation moving forward?

OUTSMARTED.? LOL…thank the refs lakers..,clearly on payroll 🎉
Does anyone know what whoever said in the background that everyone laughed at when the person said, "damn man ????"
Hell yeah, get #4 Lonnie IV in the flow for some meaningful minutes!

DLo be working hard for that drink company 😂
So the lakers use Hachimura while battling in Memphis and now Walker for GSW.
I feel like they will use Tristan Thompson regardless if it is going to be Suns or Denver in west finals.
His purpose would be breaking the momentum of their opponent. Of course it will be his defense but the way thompson plays especially when with lebron,
He can be too Aggressive or more physical.
walker should start

Lakers should go 10 deep. They have more depth use the fresh legs. And don’t settle for jump shots
So having Austin on curry hurt Austin’s offense yet he still ended up having the best +/-
It’s because this allowed vando to guard draymond and they would be able to switch all Steph/dray pick n rolls
dlo keep showing that bottle, never missed a chance
Of course he need to be right there beside Dennis and rui

watch dlo in the back of lonnies interview
but no one noticed DLO promoting his coco 5 drink hahahaha
You sound madd boring ngl. Work on that lol
Yes he should..He’s my Guy 💪🏿
Adjust to what works. It’s always a changing game plan.
Should’ve been in there I was wondering wtf
