After film today Anthony Davis accepted the responsibility of guiding LAL’s defense against DEN – whether that’s going 1-on-1 vs. Nikola Jokic or roaming and still keeping an eye on Aaron Gordon at the same time: “That’s why they pay me the big bucks. I got to figure it out.”

Love the attitude
I know a lot of people get annoyed with his “I gotta be better” postgame quotes but I trust this man with my life. If that means I die once every few games then so be it 💯
Man’s gonna cook.
Yeah we no longer have that Legendary 2020 Lakers Champs Roster where Dwight Howard and Javale Mcgee can help AD. He really really needs to focus more on defense or we will lose.
I love how everytime AD assumed responsibility of a defeat, he always shows up big next game immediately. Props to the man.
AD did not let us down game 1. beginning to see he’s taking the torch from lebron.
That’s what I like to hear. The man just scored 40 and still played some great defence especially in the second half and still sees a lot of room for improvement.
He did amazing offensively and defensively last game so I don’t blame him for last game at all, and him saying this makes me just love him more
Let’s get it then, Big Bird
I have been on discussions with people on the sub that saying that AD will not going to do another performance like last night. I told em previous series has a legit defensive centers. DPOY and Draymond Green/Looney. Who Nuggets got? Last time I check Jokic ain’t a defensive guy his a 7 foot Point Guard. DeAndre Jordan has been washed since Clippers era. I don’t even want to talk about TB. Lakers in 5!
Got love the mentality
I feel like Malone might go with Jeff Green late for Gordon just to pull AD away from the paint. Maybe we can do a backside matchup zone so AD can stay in a good help position for a a Jokic drive or off ball cutter? Not sure
