Ad deff had a chance to attempt to make it 2-0 no question
11 & 7 is actually a very productive day in the office for one Kendrick Perkins 😂😂
Yes typically in most series when road team first game then usually home team wins the second game so it is not a big deal for a road team. However in this series this win by warriors the home team is more concerning for lakers since it is how lakers were outcoached and lakers lack of shooting ability was exposed and warriors have started to play at a elite level offensively and defensively. They have found a way to beat lakers and they will.continue using this strategy and lakers do not have either personnel in the team and also do not have a coach who can counter this. Klay, divincenzo, moody, J Green all have started to score at will alongwith Curry and Wiggins. They all have found rhythm. And Draymond has found a way to not allow AD go deeper inside the paint to dominate.
Stephen a Smith is so lame it's unreal… can't believe that ESPN pays that guy anything
Perk got so much make up on 😭😭🤣
Its load management haha
The refs favored GS in game 2 … AD should have load managed game 2 and not played…
I have never seen someone hate on the Warriors more that dough boy Jesus 😂
Superstars want the ball. They make efforts to get their shot.
AD is not that guy.
I like Brian's podcast but I'm starting to realise he is quite duplicitous in his takes.
In the podcas he is very even handed with the Warriors, but always on TV he makes excuses for the Warriors opposition.
Just be consistent, thats all I ask.
Lakers will be lucky to get one more win… without the refs help on fouls.
Warriors put AD in the high pick and roll amd took him out of the lane opening up drives and kicks to the 3 shot.
They will do that again.
AD has only scored 20 points in his last 6 quarters played.
Good one Perk 😂😂😂😂
SAS wants Windy more and more on takes because he knows he is an easy target that wont contradict / defend himself
'ill feeling' Looney played only 12 minutes and had more rebounds than AD🤗
The Lakers are load managing AD it's strategy that they realize works for them
Oh Stephen A going off 😂
Stephen A is right.
Perks take was so dumb like AD owned it he said he took the same shots but just missed and that's real. He struggled and the lakers didn't go to the vline as much, the warriors made adjustments AND shot the ball even better. Game 2 not a big deal lakers have to make adjustments as well and play harder game 3 simple.
Lebron gave them a chance? He scored 23 and they lost by 30 lol
It's time to Make AD uncomfortable? It's time to get in his azz? isn't this inciting riot!? Is that journalism? Defund stephen a.
Someone do a Photoshop of ad eyebrow with that up and down graph
AD is not Shaq, he’s AD
They need Kyrie and put AD in the Super super KLove role😊
Appreciate KP’s honesty 💯😂
First take should start their own YouTube channel
Man I wish they could cuss on air
Game 1: lebron – “go get us the win. I’ll follow “
Game 2: lebron – “ok I need my stats “
ad proves this is a prescripted sport , the league needs money and they have lost alot of viewers they dont need sweeps they need rivalries so the players areperforming for the interest of the bottom line not the name on back of jerseys.
U r all dumb espn…we r very confident datt d lakers will win…n we r very very confident dat d nba managenent will give d championship to d lakers….
He cannot run.
Oh dang what?!? Stephen A is not playing around?!?!?
gotta love perk for his humility
I’m
lakers are quitters. once the other team has a lead they wave the white flag. warriors on the other hand, fight til the end as demonstrated in game 1.
It's just basketball man… Knowing the stupid masses making him uncomfortable in the streets could go, no, eventually will go wrong…
Politics
AD is emotional. It’s not hard for Steph to get into his head.
AD can afford to be inconsistent against the Grizzlies. I don’t think he should aganist the warriors.
the warriors were tired in game 1 the lakers legs were fresh thats it
Perkins talking about himself with a straight face is wild.
Just wait util game 3 and then you can talk about AD.
I think he’s scared he’ll get injured. If he’s dominant AD consistently, that raises the risk of him getting injured. I also think he’s saving energy & effort based on, how the team is performing in general.
Worst time to be inconsistent but considering the health of Bron & AD, they’re both high risk-high reward moving forward. Both might just run outta gas if they can’t win tonight. Playing from behind in the playoffs, specifically for lower seeds 👀 That’s dangerous..
Chuck was laughing about Stephen a Smith that's why is so mad 😂😂😂
Stephen had me dead😭😂😭
He doesn't play the way he suppose to play because TOO MUCH partying!
Nah y’all better wear them AD jerseys with pride. If Golden State goes for a shoot out it’s over
Stop all the analysis,you all k ow sports are all controlled by vegas mafia,so davis just didi what he did,,every game someone will be a sellout,period…or else the sporting world wont earn money to pay this high priced athletes that is already off the charts in millions
