from Laker Film Room - Dedicated to the Study of Lakers Basketball · host Pete Zayas
The Lakers are a disappointing 0-3, but their defense has been the exact opposite of that, ranking #2 in the NBA on that end so far. Pete, Mike, and Darius discuss how the Lakers have been playing so well defensively, highlighting LeBron and Anthony Davis' efforts on the back-line and the guards' efforts to pressure the ball, force difficult shots, and create turnovers. Then later, the guys talk about Patrick Beverley's role in setting the tone for the perimeter defense and how playing smaller has impacted the team's rebounding.
